Why. My dad is 50 and has glorious hair. My mom's dad had glorious black thick hair too, not even a white one when he died.

This is the only thing that I was 100% sure would never happen to me.

The other night I left in the middle of a party just because I was too self conscious. Should I kill myself already.

>> No.8191766

Absolutely not. I don't even pay attention to the fact that some people have receding hairlines. Have you been wearing a lot of hats? They rub and make the hair recede even faster.

I feel you bro.

The hair gene can skip a generation (as it did for me, both grandpas had glorious hair).

Just buzz it, get a beard and work out. I`m thinning badly at the crown/front and am only 18, so yeah...

Anyone shallow enough to not accept you because you are balding or have it buzzed/shaved is not worth hanging around, so fuck them. Hair should not be what defines you.

I think it is mostly men who notice and worry about receding hairlines, most women don't give a fuck. Same as women worrying about their armpit fat. Very ridiculous problem that literally noone notices, but to you it seems like there is searchlights and neon arrows pointing to it.

why do you think white people do the skinhead thing?

it's because it looks good and they go bald.

This isn't the end, just the beginning of a style change.

>> No.8194697

>>8194650
It is mostly caused by wrong sized bras squishing the breast and making the breast tissue migrate to the sides, easily reversible though by starting to wear the right bra.
Still my point is receding hairlines aren't as bad as people appear to think.

1% nizoral daily, T-Gel (coal tar) shampoo twice a week. Do this for 4-6 months and see if it helps.

It's possible you have poor scalp conditions. While it could certainly be MPB, what you have--diffuse frontal thinning--is not the most common form that it comes in so it could be something else.

On the plus side, it's possible that your pattern will be limited to the frontal area, which is not that bad. Once you get a little bit older, it won't seem as bad if you still have hair on the crown to frame your face.

In the mean time, I suggest a longer caesar cut to make the front look thicker. Don't overreact and "take control" by shaving your head. Everyone is different, and there's not way to tell if your hair will just hold like this for the next 30 years, or whether it will continue to progress.

Mother's father kept his hair 'til the day he died. Mother's brother kept his hair 'til the day he died.
Father has three brothers. One seems to have kept all of his hair, one has kept most of it and the other has light coverage, he kept most of it until he was fairly old.
Over half a dozen cousins that all appear to be keeping their hair.

as ASAP Science explains: thanks to genetics that's technically true for males, but there's more to the story.

The most influential hair loss gene is carried on the X chromosome, which a male would only get from his mother, and which could have been passed on by her father. But there are actually several genes that have been found to cause hair loss, as well as other non-genetic factors like stress. So the bottom line is that even if your grandpa has managed to hold onto a full head of hair his entire life, there's still a reasonable chance you might lose some of yours.

About to buzz my head today thinking about #2 just until my head gets used to the sun and doesn't look too weird then I'll probably start buzzing no guard for pic related type look.

My problem is I don't know how bad the thinning is on top but when my hair is wet it looks really thin so I'm afraid if I buzz it right now it's going to look way more noticeable. It's hot as fuck out right now and I need to do something soon.

also i forgot to mention, i never knew wtf to do with my hair anyway, and usually kept it short. when it was all thick and full, it would have needed some women-level grooming I didn't want anything to do with.

so for me, its not much to lose. beards are more enjoyable to me. I just don't know If I want the bald head stigma, but it's less radical than the new undercut craze. (imo)

I started losing at 23 and now I'm almost like Tim O'reilly at 26. The worst part is that when I finally accepted it, I started losing from the back of my head as well. Lost about half (half ear level) and more from there than from the top. Also general diffuse hairloss.

Could be from stress alongside MPB since I've been through a lot in the past 5 years. I don't feel anything anymore.
