Is it normal to see your scalp through your hair like this when it's wet, /fa/? I have a bit of a receding hairline (dad has one as well but never started balding on his crown and he's 56) but if I bald in my vertex I'm going to end it all

I feel like that's pretty normal, as far as I've seen. Start to worry if it looks like that when dry though.

It's the worst, my man. My receding hairline has only this year gotten noticeable. Looking at older pictures of me I definitely have been receding since 18 but just didn't notice it.

My grandfather had all of his hair until he died.

My dad has pretty thin hair but I don't think the average person would say he looks like he's balding. He has a receded hairline but nothing on his vertex. Pretty average or about average for mid 50s.

I for sure have a receding hairline but my dad claims his hair receded at my age as well and then just stopped.

balding guy here (26yr)

It realy sucks balls. I´m currently only using Minoxidil. I went to the doctor to get susp. for Fin, but my doctor basically discouraged me from going down that route due to possible side effects. I felt very uneasy about fin. before and I cant afford to lose any more of my libido

Luckily there are many possible "cures" coming out in next few years. Most seem to be based on stem cells and are non-surgical.

My suggestion is to fight it off with minox and fin until these new methods are available to the public.

it's thinning my dude, sorry

it wouldn't look as bad if it wasn't parted down the sides like that, but it is definitely thinning in a diffuse pattern

you seem to still have hair in the back so you can reliably do a transplant when it gets worse. jump on fin and minox and see if it does anything

A lot of these 'cures' are fairy tailes and they're likely not real, absolutely not non-surgical.

And not getting on fin was a correct decision if you already struggle with a low libido.

I'm in the phase where i have to decide if i'm going to bite the bullet with propecia/fin or lose everything. The thought of hairloss is always running through my head, but a limp dick AND a bald head will mean nothing but suicide for me.

im on minox and a topical anti-androgen called RU58841.

Does Fin even restore hair.

I've yet to see overwhelming evidence that it actually grows back hair, everything shows me it just helps retain what you have, which is obviously valuable but I doubt it's ever gonna give you thick hair again.

The thing is they basically do the transplants as long as you have hair left in the back, it's free money for them.

However if you're as bad as on the pictures, I honestly wouldn't bother because it's never going to look natural or good unless you go an obscenely expensive route, and even then you risk running out of donor areas.

The earlier you do a transplant the better, then stay on fin to keep said hair.

Feel free to correct me if wrong people.
