Let's have a hairloss thread. We can't all be chads rocking straight hairlines. > Are you buzzing it all of, or using fin/minox/etc?
My case: > noticed receiding temples a little over a year ago > very sudden, one year before that my hairline was completely straight. > I was thinking that it was caused by stress (uni), I was very sleep deprived. > ate VERY little > didn't lift yet
It seems to have halted at this point (norwood 2.5), though applying minoxidil made the hair on top shed so now I'm not sure if i have MPB. But I am noticing some hairs coming back in the temples.
Not doing fin because I don't want to mess with my hormones just yet, maybe if it gets worse I'll hop on the train - not man enough to be bald at 23.
Also, I forgot to add that my grandfather (mother's side) had receiding hairlines but I believe he had it later in his life.
Eli Barnes
am a 2 or 3, hairline is terrible, gonna start taking fin this thanksgiving when I'm home from uni. I have a weird head shape so going bald is not an option
would rather not have a working dick than look like an alien
Asher Watson
1mg?
Jose Clark
Already on dut, pray that it works for me. If it at least stops I'll probably get the SMP tattoo to thicken it up
Owen Nguyen
Here's the shape. Only the temples have receded so far so I'd like to keep the midline
Andrew Young
nigger your hairline is perfect
Joseph Green
this is a parting
this is a normal hairline
stop going on hair loss forums, you caught the body dysmorphia
Joseph Flores
They'res definitely thinning, but it also looks a bit like scar tissue in the part which I can't capture on camera, so maybe it had another cause Either way it's in the middle of a cowlick and impossible to hide
Chase Bailey
about 2 in the pic progressing to 3, shaved my head thinking it would help but really I did it too early.
I am too afraid to take fin, anyone actually on it want to give their experience?
Easton Sanders
i'm a 3, 4 years on finn, 6 months on minox
i just buzz it every month
Nathan Diaz
could be spot baldness, which has nothing to do with male pattern hair loss either way your hair looks fine, seeing a bit of scalp is normal unless you're a fucking beaver
Austin Wright
any sides, etc?
I shaved it once and thought my headshape wasnt shit so I am still debating letting it just happen to me and stoically dealing with it,
Carson King
they haven't helped?
Wyatt Parker
How long have you been minoxidil? How much regrowth have you noticed?
James Roberts
>balding at 19 Literally fuck my shit up into pieces and light them on fire
Ian Martinez
I have a really receded hairline (NW4) but absolutely great, dense hair otherwise, without any problems on my crown. It seems to have stabilized here. I first started receding around 16 or 17, and I am 22 now. My hairline has been where its at since 18, so I don't think it'll get much worse very quickly.
I'm debating between trying drugs, surgery, and buying a wig (there are very good ones on the market).
Anyone have advice for me? I've tried buzzing/shaving my head before, and its honestly worse than just having my hair grown out and receded (although that's obviously bad too.)
Jordan Evans
same desu
but im only 20
Alexander Miller
shave it off and get used to the look imo
drugs aren't worth it, minoxidil is weak and a pain in the dick to apply every day while fin has horrible sides (and you will get them eventually) surgery is expensive and not entirely permanent, but it's probably the best option if you don't want to go bald wigs look fine too but do you really want to be known as the guy who wears a wig? reeks of insecurity and is a big turn off for some people
Matthew Martinez
I'm at 2 with hair getting lighter on top and at the crown, it's not too bad as long as I keep it short. I'd probably look like 04 if I kept it all uniform length and short. Hard to know whether its genetic or from stress / lifestyle... just going to let it play out trying some natural stuff.
Lifestyle used to be really bad, one of those 40+ hour a week world of warcraft raiders, on top of high stress job and really unhappy with where I was in life. Fat of course. Definitely none of that helped.
Haven't played any vidya is several years, changed my situation, lower stress, higher income, lifting and losing weight. I'm taking some saw palmetto and pygeum for DHT blockers, and using some essential oils on my head a few times a week. We'll see how it goes.
I'm not too worried about it, just like a beard... you can groom it to look okay, but I'm completely fine with shaving it off completely (but I don't like shaving my face so it'd be a pain in the ass).
Adrian Turner
Yea what a fucking nightmare... if you ever plan on fucking someone the wig is coming off. It'd be the equivalent if mistakenly taking home and undressing a trap.
Jason Morgan
hold on darling lemme take off my hair
Sebastian Green
Like I said, definitely cannot rock the shaved look. I have a short, square head, so without hair I am an ugly motherfucker, and Im not ripped/old/breaded enough to pull that off yet
William Baker
I dont think you understand the quality of the wigs on the market. They last about 6 months, and you wear them constantly. They dont come off, in the shower, while swimming, at all. Completely impercievable, even if you run your fingers through it.
Logan Thomas
For example, this person is wearing a wig. You would not know that even if you pulled on it. It is functionally identical to real hair for about 6 months.
Daniel Jackson
that's pretty impressive, can you glue it to your head again by yourself after 6 months?
Yes. Most cities also have places that will do it for you.
Luis Lopez
About 6 months, only now starting to see mini hairs and also random longer hairs on my left temple, where it receded a bit more. I apply once a day, before bed. I don't apply it everywhere though, mostly front.
I feel you man, hairloss/receding can't be predicted. For some hairline stops receding but some just lose it all quickly.
Brandon Gray
damn , really makes you wonder how many celebs have this kind of thing ? way too many have perfect hairlines at older ages which is incredibly rare
Elijah Russell
considering how common it really is I would say most above 45 who have 'perfect' hairlines are at least doing something
Daniel Perez
How does that even work? ...and again, are you going to keep it a secret? You have some mysterious "appointment" every six months. Being fake as shit doesn't work long term.
Jacob Walker
Mate, your hairline is fine. Hair is a bit thin IMO.
. >while fin has horrible sides (and you will get them eventually) LOLWUT? 39yo here, I was on Fin from 30 to 37. Skipped one year as I moved for working abroad, now again in homeland I get the shit easily and again on track. Hair has been as #02 for the last 10 years with no side effects. I work out heavy nowadays (for strenght) and get gainz without any issues. Effects / results may vary tho.
Angel Peterson
>tfw 31 and noticed thinning around the crown Started minoxidil a few days ago. I guess I don't really give a fuck because I'm 31 and I'll just shave my head and road like Jason Steakums.
Robert Clark
Thank god my genes are good
Big reason why I wont marry a a white woman
Robert Foster
According to that pic I might be an o8
Ethan Mitchell
My hairline has been between #2/3 my whole life, am I going to start balding or is it just genetic.
Jacob Gonzalez
>black >hairline and temples receding like 02/03 >decide to shave bald >look better bald than I did with hair
Always worn my hair really short to begin with. Should've started doing this a while ago.
Brody Ortiz
same. does your mom or dad have the same hairline? my dad does but he isn't going bald and my grandfather still had hair on his head so I should be fine
Eli King
Can't regrow a hairline.
Mason Rodriguez
Would I be a 3 with this hair?
28 years old.
Aiden James
BE GRATEFUL I KNOW A GUY, ON STAGE 07 AND HE'S 18
Cameron Hall
>You have some mysterious "appointment" every six months Who the fuck is keeping track of my appointments and what they are? who even knows I'm going to fucking appointments. I could be going for a general checkup.
Evan Walker
19 and seeing derm in a week to hopefully get on fin. about a NW2, getting worse. should I supplement minox or any other shit? will buzz in 3/4 years when I have decent muscle (fear of being a bald soy boy has actually been one of the main reasons why I started lifting)
Samuel Lopez
also, I was just thinking; the west is so supremely fucked and rotten that mpb seems increasingly insignificant and trivial. it would be better to focus elsewhere..
Don't feel too bad guys. Wigs these days have become crazy good.Dude in the video makes his own wigs and he looks like he's in his early twenties with them on. Jump to 34:44 if the time stamp didn't work.
Ethan Taylor
>1/4 black >Curly hair >People discussing what I even am >mfw Think I'll just shave myself bald so I can feel like I fit in
Camden Taylor
What does it mean if the crown starts to thin first?
Elijah Jones
>same here >except look like shit when shave completely so just do a 0 all around
Nolan Wilson
Just do GOMAD and your hair will grow back dumbass
Hudson Hill
Castration is the real fix
Nathan Young
Just hop on fin at the first sign. It's cheap as fuck and the real reward is the peace of mind you get from knowing your hair is safe.
Ryder Perez
im like 2 or 3 for few years now 25 yo
Jonathan Wood

Jayden Lewis
>tfw handsome as fuck but going horribly bald how? why? what did i do to deserve this?
Hudson Cruz
why has no one discussed hair transplant yet?
I started going bald when I was 21 and I have seriously receded temples. I'm getting a hair transplant done at the end of October
Leo Gonzalez
my temples are looking worse in a time frame of 3 weeks. Maybe it's just stress but it sucks to be 24 and worry about hairloss since 19-20 when there are guys with perfect hairlines
Hunter Taylor
Started balding at 19. Both sides of family have MPB. At 21, sitting around nw3-4. Hated it and couldn't shave because head shape. Went on 1mg fin and minox daily. 2 years later I'm recovered fully on crown, and thinning parts on hairline grown back. Only wish I'd got on at 19. Can post some progress pics if anyone wants.
Zachary Cook
Took fin for a few months.
>sides
watery cum numb dick impossible to cum without death grip (sex doesn't work at all) No sex drive whatsoever brain fog out the ass literally don't care about shit tired all fucking day (literally slept for 15-20 hours on some days) Sides stayed for months after usage ( I was seriously considering suicide at this point, but my libido came back and the numbing went down very gradually after month 3 of non usage)
>pros Atleast I got my hair
I'm just throwing that shit out there for you guys. I wouldn't touch that shit with a 10 foot pole again. Would rather get a transplant once I get rich or something.
Angel Johnson
>tfw norwood 3 vertex at 24
Already on rogaine, and jumping on finasteride soon. Fuck it. I also have premature facial aging and I don't want to look like I'm 45 when I'm 30.
Connor Bailey
One of my closest friends is literally a 4 at 20 years old.
[spoiler]blaze it faggot[/spoiler]
Gabriel Thomas
Expensive and mixed results. Most anons are at the prevention rather than correction stage. I doubt there are many people here who have done it.
Good luck though.
Joseph Butler
Norwood 03 here. I'm 24; Fuck!
Anthony Robinson
Become a friar.
Tyler Russell
nah, relax, the sides are very rare and they appear usually on sedentary people
Aiden Moore
>What is matured hairline
Andrew Miller
Started fin/duta at 20 years old, been on it for the last 3 years. I also use minox and nizoral. My hair looks pretty good considering my dad was bald at 25.
Lucas Fisher
>tfw fell for the matured hairline meme when I should have been jumping on fin
Hopefully I can get most of the miniaturization back to full hairs, but I regret not starting three years ago.
Thomas Long
Oh and I'd like to say I think a lot of the side effects people come out with are nocebo's. If you feel like you're having problems with your dick try taking a zinc supplement or maybe citrulline mallate too.
Adrian Cook
WoW congrats on banging some post wall club whore.
Parker Scott
thanks. The results seem pretty good based on the images I've received from an online consultation, but I'm aware they're probably sending the best case scenarios.
that said my temples are very similar to the left, so I hope I can get similar results
Juan Diaz
i have huge forehead sometimes decent haircut is what makes the look
if you have terrible balding then shave it off, my buddy which is same age, and his top of head looked like 70yo grandpa,very patchy and "shiny", he just shaved.
I on other hand have huge sides and i expect them to grow bigger just like my fathers hair. Also completely grey by 30yo, i already have some grey hair. Pic related front of my head
Hudson Turner
now watch from the side
also by no means i dont have great haircut rn, but last time hairdresser went with short sides long top for me and it worked quite decent. Note, after hair gets too long at front it will look like your forehead is bigger not smaller!
Im also ugly in general but thats beyond scope of this thread
Connor Gutierrez
I was the same m8 except it didn't stop hair falling out either. No sex drive Really difficult to get an erection During the last month I was taking it I had a pain in my right testicle and then my dick totally stopped working.
Stopped taking it immediately and dick worked again after 3 days.
However my libido fluctuates massively now. I'll have 3 weeks of being a sex god and then a week where my libido drops to nothing. Been almost 5 months since I stopped taking it and this issue persists.
I know it works well for thousands of people who get 0 side effects but there are risks Thankfully a combination of minoxidil+nizoral+microneedling once a week saved my hair
Hunter Taylor
who /JUST/ here? >tfw only 22
Matthew Butler
>my libido fluctuates massively now. I'll have 3 weeks of being a sex god and then a week where my libido drops to nothing
If it makes any difference, I'm the same and I've never taken finasteride or any other long-term prescriptions. I don't know how normal frequent fluctuations in mood/libido/energy are, but it's always been that way for me.
Lincoln Bennett
i rather have high test / libido than have a shot at better hairline
t. 25 kissless virgin so libido means jerking off more often
Kayden James
If you're a 25 yo kv your hairline doesn't actually matter anyway
Ryan Richardson
You guys know the Norwoos scale isn't meant to show a progressive hair loss, right?
Oh wait, I'm talking to Americans here.
Josiah Ramirez
JUST >also lost gains after shoulder injury
Jayden Baker
What did he mean by this?
Ayden Rogers
>high test / libido Are you sure you're just not addicted to the dopamine from jerking off?
Juan Peterson
Hairline at 04 on the scale (not balding at crown yet) . I took the plunge to buzzcut a few weeks back. I've had long hair since forever but it was getting silly with my hairline.
Best decision I've made. I went out for a night on the town with the lads the night I did it, got compliments left, right and centre. Mixed opinions at work, but mostly positive from women. I think I made a girl in a relationship spill her spaghetti complimenting me, kek.
You absolutely need the jawline or a strong beard to make it work, but if you're early 20's, take the plunge.
Austin Phillips
Getting hair replacement system tomorrow, after four long years of baldness, wish me luck bros.
Also anyone got any tips about working out and shit with the system? My hairdresser seems like she's kinda avoiding the question, idk if its because she doesnt know or knows its gonna get fucked up if I sweat too much in it
Jordan Wilson
isn't by 2020 some kind of medicine appearing that would help those with hair loss to regain their full hair back?
Levi Cook
I dont think you will ever be able to recover "dead" hair follicles without surgery. Hair transplants will probably improve though
Andrew Williams
same here, more like pushing 4 to be honest
Ian Bennett
Isn't real retard, it's just what hairlets tell themselves to COPE
Kayden Richardson
I started using Minoxidil, Finasteride and Nizoral 2%. I'm on my 3rd month and I noticed that the hair on my temples are growing back. I did have some shedding but all of the lost hairs are being replaced. It's very cool but at the same time bizarre.
Brayden Hall
>start losing hair at 19 >at 26 found myself at 05/06
>Researchers have discovered a new way to activate the stem cells in the hair follicle to make hair grow. The research may lead to new drugs that could promote hair growth for people with baldness or alopecia, which is hair loss associated with such factors as hormonal imbalance, stress, aging or chemotherapy treatment.
David Hall
yes post pics
Christopher Long
what about Frank Vincent from Sopranos? David Lynch (71) has also impeccable nw1

Jackson Gonzalez
I'm thinning on the top of my scalp. I've been trying to get short about a 3 on top and 2 on the sides.
