It doesn't seem easy tho...nor very nice...Oh really... does it matter if you are bald...
Basically what happens is a scientist takes a newborn baby boy's freshly-harvested foreskin, and sticks it onto a mouse's back. Then the foreskin, supercharged by the mysterious power of mice, turns into hair, which is then glued onto your head, and it starts to grow. At least this is how I understand it – I never claimed to be a scientist, just a science enthusiast. But what IS important to remember is the mouse: it is a crucial part of the process. I cannot stress this strongly enough: do NOT try to achieve these results yourself at home without using a mouse. You are doomed to failure and humiliation. No doubt the news will see thousands of impatient bald men stapling foreskins to their heads and thinking everything's coming up roses, but it simply doesn't work that way. You need mice, and scientists, and test tubes and beakers and things. Unlike climate change, foreskin-to-follicle transition is something best left to the experts.
