My hair has thinned out heaps which a hairdresser I saw recently commented on.
"You're hair is very weird, it's very thick but very fine". I'm not receding at the hairline but it's thinned massively. When I shampoo hair often comes out and when I wake there's hairs on my pillow.
But, and this is what confuses me, it's accompanied by horrible itching (which a lot of guys seem to experience) and sometimes bumps and stuff. Also, at the same time this really kicked in, my eyebrows receded from the outside in heaps, eyebrows started falling out. I got my thyroid test (only TSH1 and TSH2) and they were apparently normal but I've started supplementing kelp.
Plus my forehead itches something wicked too when this is going on. Any Veeky Forumsizens have any idea what's going on?
>its all downhill from here Don't push your insecurities on me, thanks.

I actually think a lot of the issue started then. I tried nopoo and noticed my scalp went crazy itchy and I started shedding hair something wicked. My eyebrows also at the same time started getting white flakes in them, something that had never happened before and which still occasionally does.
I'd also started ritalin a month prior and wonder if it was an issue from that.

>something wicked >something wicked
stop saying this or you're not getting any help
Evan Garcia
Hm... Meme no shampoo fad affecting hair loss, or amphetamines I wonder....
Eli Peterson
>Dihydrotestosterone fag
Yeah you are fucked bro.
Sebastian Hughes
if it starts to go you need to buzz it, you can only start looking fashionable when the top is fully bald, then you can just fade the sides. unfortunately you are forever bumped down 2-3 points / 10 which means unless her dad is bald you're going to be shit out of luck with qt's in the future.
balding also ages men horribly, so start looking at skin moisturising and general face care creams, because no matter how juicy your body, if you have scooby face you will only attract weird gay dudes.
Thomas Perry
Wicked, something.
Owen Mitchell
>you will only attract weird gay dudes. ??
Ryder Bennett
You get that because of the itching?
Brandon Rivera
Minoxidil + peppermint oil
Oliver Wright
user, I..
Hudson Reyes
Itching is the result. Your hair follicle are shrinking/dying due to dihydrotestosterone. This contributes to the itching sensation in your scalp.
Ian Anderson
Dumb, but even itching on the forehead, eyebrows?
I might need to save for a hair transplant...
Cameron Morris
Get a medicated sampoo that treats dandruff and blocks dht also rinse with filtered water and apple cider vinegar its what i have been doing and my hair is coming back a shampoo i was useing was building shit up on my scalp
David Hill
I hear you OP. I noticed I was thinning about six months ago. I immediately googled around and formulated a routine to fix my hair.
I do a morning scalp massage to increase blood flow to the hair. I then apply a teaspoon of peppermint, olive, tea tree and rosary oil to my scalp liberally and let it sit for 40 minutes before using a special anti dandruff shampoo to clear my pores so new hair can grow.
After that eat an anti inflammatory low glucose breakfast and take a supplement of zinc, biotin, magnesium and pumpkin seed oil.
For good measure I don't wear hats and avoid combing more than three times to discourage further seabum production which could soak my hair in DHT.
As you can see my hair is already looking thicker. I think I've beat MPB, and now you can too. Thank me later.
Dylan Campbell
Just shave your fucking head you pussy.
Liam Brooks
>apple cider vinegar I've been doing this, got some on right now, one with manuka honey in it so we'll see. Also been thinking of adding in coconut oil as that's meant to be good.
>peppermint, olive, tea tree and rosary oil Will applying these to my scalp lower my normal test? I was drinking nettle tea there for a while but stopped because I read some funny things about it.
>zinc, biotin, magnesium and pumpkin seed oil. I take all of these except for biotin (been meaning to) and eat pumpkin seeds.
Got a before pic/after pic of your hair?
Colton Martin
Just learn to take a fucking joke you pussy.
Michael Jenkins
>Nobody has said finasteride yet.
This is the only realistic option to save your hair.
Jaxon Powell
Someone explain hair transplants? Take hair from one part of your head and put it in the areas balding?
Juan Garcia
kek
Andrew Gutierrez
Hahahajajajahah holy fucking shit user. Just fucking shave your head. Holding on to a lost cause like that is just pathetic. Your hair licks donkey balls, accept it and move on jesus.
Levi White
>Habe receding hairline but not thinning- just a nasty widows peak >Try going bald after a bet from a coworker >Get some compliments how I look >Don't like it because how weird wearing any headgear feels, plus my head felt hot all the time >Letting hair grow back >Hairline just looks worse, see pic related
What do, Veeky Forums? Do I just embrace bald-by-choice
Jackson Turner
see
Parker Fisher
Just save up for a hair transplant surgery lul
Josiah Martinez
>lul ?
Christopher Stewart
I saved mine, barely. Just trying to hold on long enough till I'm ripped.
Camden Hill
It should be said that most hair transplant surgeons won't perform a procedure on you unless you've been on fin for half a year. If you're not on fin and have surgery you're basically guaranteed to need another one or four a couple of years down the line.
Luke Wilson
What is the point of fin tho? It does more harm than good. Yeah, it works but once you stop taking it you'll lose all hair anyway
Grayson Allen
>It does more harm than good
wat? 99% of people will experience only one side effects from it, no more hair loss.
Adam Wood
Fin and minox are the only things that work bro.
Isaac Nguyen
how?
Julian Edwards
So I guess I really ought to look into these then.
Levi Russell
Minox Pumpkin seed oil Saw palmetto Biotin Keto shampoo twice a week No poo every other day
Jeremiah Lewis
>people giving meme remedies Don't you think millionaires would have tried this stuff? It doesn't work and stop kidding yourself into thinking it does. A healthy diet and no alcohol will slow it down but it's inevitable.
Noah Bennett
I have no idea why it's not more widely known. When I first started loosing hair every google search brought up voodoo magic like oils and diets to save hair.
The truth is there are real FDA approved medications out there that stop hair loss and they get drowned out in a sea of shit.
Jose Clark
Donald trump takes fin.
Granted his hair is shit. But remember, he's 70. Imagine it without fin.
Xavier Jones
My issue is the possible sexual dysfunction.
Jaxson Wood
Never said they didn't.. But once you drop fin you'll lose all the hair really fast.
Yeah idk about that, when i searched about it all i could see was negative comments.
Jeremiah Murphy
No shit. Why would you suddenly drop fin unless you found the cure for balding?
Luke Anderson
I get the rest of it, but I don't see how now pooing would help your hair. I read someone once reccomend me to only poo twice a month and by week 2 i was so sick i had to go to hospital
Easton Harris
>No poo every other day My scalp itched like crazy when I did this, I almost scratched it raw. Terrible!
Logan Scott
Is it beginning? I've seen this spot before
Justin Cruz
Kek. Shampoo if you're serious.
Liam Adams
shit, I meant never seen this spot before.
James Price
>I'm not receding at the hairline but it's thinned massively. dude we can see the receding in that photo.
I'm totally bald, i know what the signs of balding looks like, you have like 4 years left, you should start buzzing next year and shaving the year after that.
Bentley James
>balding also ages men horribly, It can do the opposite, in your 20s it adds years but when older it can make you look younger, a sort of timeless concept.
Grayson Gonzalez
There is a lot of fear around the potential side effects of fin but the numbers don't lie. Very few people experience anything negative from fin. Those that do usually only do so temporarily. Do yourself a favor and ignore any bullshit about post finasteride syndrome. They're the most neurotic people on the internet.
I've been on fin for over a year now and my hair is pretty much perfect. It got way darker and thicker too.
Jeremiah Moore
>I noticed I was thinning about six months ago. You either never look in the mirror or thats the fastest hair loss known to man
Brayden Hall
Fucking shave it jesus, its impossible to ever ever look good with that style, ever, no matter who you are.
Bentley Barnes
Maybe, your hair looks very fine. Has it always been so? Could be the early stages of diffuse thinning. Then again, I don't know you.
Andrew Nguyen
Yes its always been like that.
John Gonzalez
Ok bb, i have a appointment with a really good trichologist in two weeks, i'll talk more about fin with him and make my mind.
Blake Sullivan
That's not me, just some picture I found.
Asher Murphy
Use rogaine.
Asher Nguyen
Been balding for 4 years, tried finasteride for 6 months which really grew my hair back but gave ED and loss of libido. I quit using it year ago and withing 6 months the hair returned to where it was before using fin.
I think I'll buzz it to 0 this summer, starts to look shitty.
No receeding, only thinning on top. The hair is getting really thin and drops easily.
24 years old, and still my shitty genetics don't allow me to grow a beard.
Michael Martinez
Whats the deal with nopoo? You never wash it at all? Most people say some nioxin or whatever is good.
Eli Harris
Did ED dissapear after you stopped finasteride? Also use minox to grow a beard
Jace Carter
...
Levi Allen
No poo except when you use keto poo. Wash your hair with water. I was skeptical too thinking it'd be all gross but it's actually really nice and feels way better than when I poo'd every single day.
Luis Morales

Nolan Nelson
I'm ordering a hair piece/toupee online
Convince me it's wrong.
Angel Sullivan
If anyone finds out your life is over.
James Jenkins
>I noticed I was thinning about six months ago
Carter Martin
If I am lifting for explosiveness and strength on my compounds, should I lift as fast as I can, and on the way down control it? Or should I go slow all the time or just blast it?
Adam Butler
just bee u r self
Gavin Morris
Whoops, sorry lads
Hunter Taylor
I'm bald and i shave it every 2 days but i notice a lot of my friends in their 20s are quite obviously balding yet they don't shave their hair and seem to give no fucks, no lack of confidence, nothing even though some look awful. They even have girlfriends (though so do i) but i just don't get it. Why was i so bothered to be bald by 25 but not they.
Jackson Rodriguez
Yeah, during fin I lost my morning wood and erections were not clearly as hard as they used to be. But after quitting symptoms faded and everything returned to normal quite quickly, like within week or two.
I'm contemplating using rogaine, maybe I'll try it, it prolly will help my hair too as it goes systemic.
Brody Martinez
>it's accompanied by horrible itching (which a lot of guys seem to experience) and sometimes bumps and stuff.
that's dermatitis, see a dermatologist or get a proper shampoo for it.
Yes.
no poo is completely useless balding wise
also bad idea for people with dermatitis
Landon Roberts
yeah remember when jude law starting going bald? literally 10/10 would cum to young pictures of him, most beautiful man alive status, and he starts to fade and it's just...
and he keeps trying to hold on and it's... JUST
Zachary Thomas
probably big dicks, if you have a big dick nothing phases you in life.
Justin Jackson
He'd actually look good/better bald. He has the headshape for it.
Isaiah Jenkins
But i legitimately have a big dick and i didnt like going bald. I think i pull it off well and still look good but if i had hair id be 9/10
Samuel Torres
He also has model-tier facial aesthetics and is charismatic
Leo Bailey
Just use the ULTIMATE Hair Regrowth Protocol bruh!
>All that fucking garbage I'm already on all of this but I'm debating trying all of that garbage as well
Fuck me.
Parker Moore
So roughly 800 pills a day?
Chase Wilson
I've always had a high hair line. Think I'm good for at least another couple of years? Plz Bros, I love my hair.
Robert Taylor
but muh dick still werks!
Luis Morris
>All that fucking garbage >I'm already on all of this
Is it working? Any difference?
Adam Morris
see I want fin so badly but I don't want to fuck with my body like that.
Adam Gray

Noah Thomas
For anyone paranoid about losing hair or in the process here's some advice.
Minoxidil (Rogaine) works. I use it with a dermaroller so it absorbs better and it regrew hair on my temples and crown. The shedding is absolute hell and after 2 months you'll look worse than before but around the 3-4 month mark hairs start to regrow. Minoxidil at best will regrow hair and at worst buy you some more time with the hair you have. If you stop using it expect to lose all the hair you regrew and regress back to where you would have been without starting it.
DHT destroys hair follicles. This part is a bit of broscience but I've been taking saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil daily because they've been shown to block test from converting into dht. I guess there are 2 types of dht and there's a bit of confusion if saw p. and pumpkin seed oil actually work, but when I started using both I noticed a reduction in shedding big time. They're both very cheap too.
I don't personally use it but Ketoconazole shampoos have been proven to help combat DHT buildup in the scalp. Ketoconazole is an anti-fungal dandruff shampoo and there are tons of different brands on amazon all around 10-15 bucks.
And lastly masturbating excessively will wreak havoc on your hair. Masturbation spikes dht and doing so multiple times a day will not only keep your dht high but also deplete your body of minerals that you shot out of your cock. Less is more when jerking off.
A years worth of minoxidil costs me around $60 on amazon. Saw palmetto and pumpkin seed oil cost around $75 for a year. So I'm paying $135 a year to keep a full head of hair. I spend that much on toothpaste, body wash and deodorant. A lot of people complain that they have to apply minoxidil twice a day or that they're taking pills twice a day but it becomes part of your routine. We all shower and brush our teeth everyday, what's one more thing to add?
Good luck, balding brehs, hope you all make some hair gains.
Connor Torres
have any before/after photos?
Jace Cruz
well at least you got compliments now its it time to hop on the steroid gains train
Kevin Baker
>hairline slowly receding >beard slowly coming in thicker
What is this devil's bargain
Angel Anderson
Reduce iron consumption and start using anti-dandruff shampoo. A lot of baldness/itchiness is caused by scalp fungus, which can be killed by restricting its access to iron and using the shampoo.
