There is probably no good answer to this, but I'd like to ask you creative folks anyway.
We were at a reunion last weekend and an old friend who hasn't been around for a number of years showed up. He's still a nice guy and well liked, but we were kind of appalled at his combover. Made him look a bit ridiculous.
Several of us discussed it, but nobody was willing to simply tell him to lose it. We all felt strongly that he would be offended and hurt if we did.
Does anyone know a good diplomatic way to tell a person about such an easily remedied problem? We really don't want to hurt his feelings, but would love to see him make this change.
