Dear Abby: My friend has been secretly re-growing his hair and didn’t tell me
- The author recently discovered that his best friend has been secretly regrowing hair for the past year while wearing a baseball cap to conceal it.
- The friend did not disclose this until the author mentioned considering Rogaine, likely due to embarrassment despite no etiquette requiring disclosure.
- The friend revealed that he has spent about a year trying a comparable treatment for hair loss, and to demonstrate some slight progress, he removed the baseball cap he had been wearing consistently during that time.
- The author feels deeply shafted by the secrecy and questions whether such self-improvement steps should be shared with close friends, while also expressing confusion.
- This situation highlights complexities in sharing personal medical interventions, suggesting that comfort levels and embarrassment may limit openness even among close friends.
