Why is it?

Why is it that we go bald on the top of our head instead of on our face? I mean - as we age why do we keep the facial whiskers that we shave off everyday, but lose the hair on our head that we'd rather keep?

Hypothetically, if we actually did go bald on our face, would we see a huge market of people paying big bucks for beard transplants so they'd look younger? Would Sy Sperling's Hair Club instead be a beard club?

And would we all shave our head daily like Telly Savalas before we went to work? Would only the outdoorsy types like Grizzly Adams have top-of-the-head hair?

And do you ever wonder what a comb-over beard might look like?

It's really not worth thinking about, but can you really not wonder what it'd be like?

(Believe it or not I just googled "comb over beard" and this Super Bowl commercial showed up.)
