I'm deathly afraid of balding and I'm 24 with a high hairline

I'm 24 and mine is still hanging in there
Can it just all of a sudden happen or if I've made it this far am I probably alright?

All of the sudden. 24 isn't even old (inb4 underaged fucks reply)

Bro you're going to need to look up PGE2 and PGD2 and their effects, also try to get castor oil and load up on pumpkin seeds.

>I'm deathly afraid of balding
never gonna make it. from what I understand about being a man, you can pretty much be struck bald at any age between teens and death, and it will never look good unless you shave it. there's a secret society of bald men, I imagine they greet each other in the street because they both went through the same thing.

t. full head of flaxen hair, thankfully. trying to eliminate stress, unhealthy food, and chinese shampoo for sheen gains. maybe some hairlets can weigh in.

also research KLH6 and POGH3-4, plus, look into avocado cores and lamb brain

I read this thing like 3 times and still dont understand. were you actually trying to say something or just an attempt of being funny user

>I'm 24 with a high hairline.
hair thinned the fuck out at 19 first month of uni i just buzzed it looks good

I'll greentext it for you.

>0-100% chance of balding at any time
>there's only so much you can do to mitigate a genetic predisposition
>losing all your hair must totally suck
>there's a kind of "bald pride" among hairlets because they know firsthand what it's like
>I have not gone bald myself
>I remove stress and cancer from my life to keep my hair for as long as possible
>perhaps a real bald person can post ITT

you can do a genetic test if youre really paranoid but it will only give you a chance % so unless its on the two side, it doesnt matter much

Everybody's life would've been so much better if the prehistoric men just killed all balders to prevent their shitty genes from spreading

exactly. the surest way to go bald, other than having it run in your family, is to apply strange chemicals to your head because you're always stressed about balding.

wash your hair 2-3x weekly with castile soap, eat lots of fresh produce, and manage your stress. it may still happen regardless.

Hair.

nah, I didn't really notice until 26 or so, and it's been really slow. Like 3 years later I'm still mostly fine, just noticably thinner on top when hair is wet and receded on the sides compared to prior years.

Probably still have 1-2 more years before it'll be time to shave it all off at this rate. As is, I like keeping it short because it looks shitty in front due to the receded hairline, so the full shave won't be too much of an adjustment.

I'm balding and its not THAT bad. I mean, there are millions of young people balding, yet you can see the same names on hairloss related forums. When I found out at 18, I got a buzzcut. I look a lot better with hair, but I still looked decent I would say. And I was still skinny-fat back then with pretty high bf%
I think the key is the acceptance. There are things we can do nothing about. But also a lot of things we can improve. So it's obvious that we should focus on all those things and not get stuck on the few we cannot.
Right now, I'm taking Finasteride. My balding isn't noticeable at all, but when the time comes I'm ready to shave. That's the key I think. Accepting it that there are things you can nothing against. Feel like the people who spend years on these hairloss forums just can't move on. It's fucking sad honestly

it sounds like OP hasn't actually consulted with a doctor, much less looked around the table at a family gathering. I've never heard of preventative balding medicine. how would you even test it? every man will lose his hair at some predetermined point. all you can do is be healthy and hope it doesn't start until you're almost dead.

bunch of errors because im tired but you get the point

if you have an Rx to stall it process, good for you. it sounds like you said, acceptance and the confidence that comes from self-improvement. I hardly notice whether someone's bald unless they try to hide it or have some shitty comb-over.

I know what you mean re: moving on, except other forums. the guys posting the same things year after year are really sad.

(You)

Give it to me straight...
Am I fucked?

Loss is most aggressive between 20-35.

Temple balding. Can't tell you much else. Maybe it'll stop there, maybe not.

you need dimoxinil 100%

might as well cut a ball off

>Maybe it'll stop there, maybe not.
it seems like eyesight loss in that respect. my eyes went to shit before puberty, but other people I know are still sliding into darkness. the question for me is, will it continue before decrepitude, and if it does, will I actually be seeing-eye-dog blind? I don't take fucking eye drops every day. anyone, good thread, OP is a fag, etc. peace out.

Are you high, stupid, trying to be funny (and failing) or a combination of all those

I feel like the internet is too radical when it comes to shaving though. Like, if its really long and you have a huge balding patch, it can look truly awful yeah. But so many people see a small receiding/thinning and they just start panicking and everyone on the internet tells them to shave. I think its bullshit that comes from insecurity filled social media generation where everyone pretends to be perfect. There are even celebrities thinning, famous people with really high hairlines. Just because someone doesnt have a thick hair like when he was 14, it still can look great. People who are balding and concentrate on it gonna notice every small detail the average person does not

There are a lot more worrying things, like long term cognitive side effects or hormonal inbalance, increased insulin resistence, etc. I'm on it with no side effects but not gonna like, its a shit drug. But personally, not that long ago I was fat, living an extremely unhealthy livestyle with a lot of porn, high blood pressure and I still had morning woods and could jerk off 10 times a day if I wanted while I was on fin. I still have the sex-drive of a 15 year old at 22. I jerk off and 5 minutes later I have a boner again. I'm happy but its kinda frustrating if you want to get shit done

>tfw The Faceless is a bitch

blech gross

Wear the Don Draper hair. Best you can do with that hairline, tbqh.

Dimoxinil!

if i started goin bald id go straight fraud right away.

your self esteem?
just give up and shave it down to a couple mils.
20yo with a very slight widows peak, said fuck it and shaved it down, not chrome dome but 2mm and it looks pretty good imo, add a beard and it's good

>Wear the Don Draper hair.
Which one's that?

John?

The strongest man in the world is a bitch?

only high

re: shaving. idk either way, they probs just want everyone to look like them because they're insecure. dunno what the "thinning hair" threshold is to shave it off, I'm growing my hair long and literally have no frame of reference.

Why do you post here if you don't lift

Better board culture?

Whoops, seems like you made a mistake user. You said "strongest man in the world", but posted someone other than Eddie Hall. How embarrassing!

that is objectively wrong. Ive seen balding dudes get tons of women, you just gotta be attractive and buzz/shave your head.

Top right corner, the two black-and-white ones. Needs a bit of tweaking (different length and cut, and combing) because it was obviously a joke hairdo and looked gay, but it's a clean cut, manageable, and looks good with neat clothing.
Just look at pic related, this shit is clean as fuck.

Buzzed and the slicked side part look best

>Grow beard
>Groom beard well
>Gain some muscle
>Buzzcut hair
>Fill rest of hair with tattoo

I am a scientist. Everything this man just typed are true facts.

Look into RepliCell

You're never safe, but if you survive your 30's with most of your hair then you made it. Nobody cares if you're balding when you're 40 years old

Get balding trimmers and do 1x1 twice per week if you're balding.

>being upset you're losing your hair
>not understanding that a lot of paramilitary and military organizations choose to be bald for practical reasons
>not understanding that this associates baldness with being someone you should respect

Haircels should just go and have sleepovers where they comb each other's long pretty hair and gossip about what conditioner they should use.

You look like William Dafoe

This

If you actually lifted and went straight bald, you would look better.

>Finasteride

Don't do it.

It hardly works and you're going to fuck up your dick and sex drive.

...

nizolar shampoo? And aim for fin if you can duta fucks your shit up

not even true. just look clean. Women with daddy issues love it

>wash your hair 2-3x weekly with castile soap, eat lots of fresh produce, and manage your stress. it may still happen regardless

All memes go get a perscription from your doctor thats the only shit that works

try diatomaceous earth. its like a fine protein powder with no taste. You can buy a bag for like $10 on amazon. it increases hair growth and strength, nail growth and strength, and removes any sort of parasites in your body you might have picked up along the way. Oh make sure to use FOOD GRADE only.

if it doesn't work, just shave that shit off and accept it. don't rock the cul de sac.

Just buzz your head

>brother is 28 and his hairline is receeding
>im 21 with a thick head of hair and intact hair line

Is it only a matter of time for me?

>look at family history, realize about 50% of men are Norwood IIa by 35-40
>haha, I'm not a pussy, I'll just shave it now and be completely used to it by 25, that'll save a lot of stress

>buzz head
>forehead is all pointy, parietal bones are really wide and there's a noticable peak in the skull

Guess it's fin and eventual hair plugs for me, after all.

>people literally risk infertility, aka being a genetic dead end just because some segment of the female population don't date bald guys

Can't imagine anything more cucked and pathetic desu

This.

You should be eating plenty of fruits, vegetables and nuts anyway, but all that granola shit about a good diet preventing balding is horseshit. Fin, min and nizoral are pretty much the only treatments with reproducible, clinical results.

>people literally believe scare stories about finasteride causing impotence

There is literally no pathway for fin to break your dick. Men just go impotent and blame the pill they've been on for a decade.

Is that what you tell yourself?

That's what clinical research says.

Wrong

started receding at 19. just got a fresh bald today at 35. how do i look?

Let me guess, you read the study that was drawn from people literally recruited from a website for people who already blamed fin for erectile dysfunction before they were questioned.

None of the long-term DHT reductase studies find a link with erectile dysfunction outside the normal ranges for age brackets.

Learn to interpret abstracts, guy.

>I can't have kids but at least girls are m-miren r-right guys?

who cares about the dick issue? you can fix that

HOWEVER, removing most of the DHT from you rblood, WILL make you worse at thinking

for most people.. that is actually a real issue, you will be slow in the brain

of course this isn't reported very much, since it comes on very gradually, and you yourself will not notice it.

Same is true with the dick, btw.. all those surveys are questionnaire-based, and of course people will not notice a gradual decline over years. They will report that they are satisfied with their sex lives. However, if you measure dick hardness objectively between two people, one on a shit ton of DHT, and one on a DHT blocker -- the result WILL unanimous in favor of DHT.

Sure, SUBJECTIVELY a patient can be perfectly fine on finasteride. But objectively his body is absolutely affected by the lack of DHT. In terms of bodybuilding you will also notice softer muscles and worse pumps, in general.

>I don't do cardio because it kills gains
>I don't eat red meat because it's bad for your heart
>I don't drink milk because it has xenoextrogens

Stop getting tricked.

Why the fuck don't you just shave your hair off? Are you a fat fuck or something?

Yeah, fin is an antiandrogen, as in it literally reduces something that makes you masculine. But that's less interesting to write clickbait articles about than "DO HAIR PILLS MAKE YOUR DICK SOFT?", playing on both sides of male vanity.

doesn't look as bad as it would most people

about 100 times better than if you kept your receded hair

Nice earring you desperate faggot.

Just dont give a fuck OP, accept it

Shave your head or make keep your hair at minimum length

The only things thats gonna put women off is if you start being a bitch about it

Just turned 19

How fucked am i?

Let me just tell you guys aged 18-23 who are freaking out about temples going back 1cm

it's normal, calm your tits

More angles

>thick, full head of hair
>Loose it all at 21
>total hairless knee mode on my head for 3 years now

Honestly, it was tough getting used to it, but now I shave it every other day and if I have more than 2mm of hair on my head I go apeshit

Im ready to embrace my new life as a skinhead

Calm down dude, just because your hairline doesn't look like this it doesn't mean you're going to go bald at 23.

Your hair is still thick on the top, you should be good for a while.

You got pics?

Same thing happened to me at 22. I'm 27 now with the exact same hairline. Hairline maturation is a real thing and very common. Relax.

My family has very thick hair, so thick, that when i grew it long i couldn't really do things with it (braids ect.)

My hairline is higher than my dad and about as high as my dads dad. So hairloss dosen't seem to be a thing in the family.

Only family member unaccounted for is my mothers farther, and with my lucks he probably bald.

I decided to try the mast meme routine he keeps on shilling here (pso/biotin/saw/keto). If nothing happens after a few months I'm going to murder him.

If you're like that at 19 you'll probably be good for at least a good few years if you are going to go bald. Heck, you could just buzz it now and never have to deal with the stress.
