r/Balding

I already went to 2 dermatologist but they wont give me finasteride just minox, does anyone have any spear fin? Xd seriously why are they doing this to me

Hey guys,

I’m a 19 year old white male who is a bit concerned about his hairline (widows peak).

My whole life I’ve had a pretty big forehead, but I’m getting concerned now, as when my dad was my age he was beginning to lose hair. However my mother and her side done experience hair loss.

Based on these photos would you guys say I’m showing signs of a receding hairline or just a natural big forehead?

My hair is in a bad shape right now because I'm just growing it out. I have this feeling that I will become bald by 35 and so I'm trying to have longer hair while I can (25 right now)

Please tell me the absolute truth - if I'm balding or not. If yes then at what stage I am? and anything that I can do to slow it down.

Been like this for a few years, I get a bit self conscious about it - don’t want to look like I’m holding on!

Managed to snag a better picture

?

As u can see im losing my hair in the temples,one still looks like mature hairline while the other temples looks like norwood 2,5-3😭.

I did make a post few days ago but now I wanna ask what kind of fin yall would suggest,im not gonna use it yet,but when I turn like 17-18 im gonna start looking for it.

(Im alr on topical minox)

Hello everyone, I have been losing hair for a few months now, every time I pass my hand in my hair I have a few ones getting on my hand and it’s every time so a lot more than 50-100 everyday (which is the normal amount)

Also in the shower and on my pillow, I’ve started taking zinc, vitamin B etc but I don’t really think it’s working.

I’ve tried everything (no hairdryer, not smashing my hair in the towel and using products for « hair loss » *humhum*

In the 3rd pic I cannot really hide the receiding hairlike bc not a lot of hairs can hide it, do y’all see thinning hair in the first 2 pic?

I now it’s dumb but I’m really scared, I can really see the difference between a few month back when I didn’t have thinning hair (in the pic)

What do you all think?

Thank you a lot

I'm 21, never expected it to go THIS fast, I fully embrace the title unc now 🫠😭

Do you think it's still reversable or is it time to go full Lex Luthor

29 m , I understand it’s a cowlick or parting line, I’ve had it forever. But it for sure has gotten more noticeable over the past couple of months.

I don’t stress to often, I manage an ok diet as best as I can , exercise , my genetics point to me going bald but not until way later like 40 s. The only thing I can think of that can contribute is lack of sleep? and maybe because I have to wear a hat every day for work. I’m not sure what else to include in this post , let me know if I’m missing anything. Does anyone have any advice ?

I lost alot of hair on my scalp after a keratin treatment got onto my scalp. Is this recoverable? Its been about 4 months and it hasn’t grown back in those areas.

I have the dates of every pic in the corner so you'll be able to tell the oldest to the newest. I (28M) had a visit with a dermatoloigist on Tuesday and she told me she since it was my first time seeing her that she couldn't tell if my hair was actually thinning or if I just have a natural mature hairline, even after looking with a dermatoscope, but she did say I have a healthy scalp. I unfortunately didn't have these pics to show her at the appointment as I had to did through old files just to find these. I don't see a really any difference myself, and when I shower and brush my hair I have very little to no shedding. So am I cooked? Is there any noticable difference between pics that I'm not seeing? Is it possible I just have a mature norwood 2 hairline or is that just cope?

M33, For some weeks now i noticed a lot of hair in my shower. I wash my hair every 3 to 4 days. Today i counted and it was like 160 hairs. Like a view month ago i was used by like a third in the sink. Took some pictures afterwards with different combs and lightning. Also added the last pic i made with dry hair. Is the reaper coming? How long before shaving😬😬

I want to know if I’m cooked. 25 year old male. Always had thinner hair but looking to make it stronger and thicker. Any suggestions? Thanks! Panicking!
