Hair Loss

I can't believe this is happening to me. For crying out loud I'm only 17! But my hairline is actually starting to recede. This is bullshit. It's pretty noticeable now, and I feel like crying every time I pull my hair back to see the skin up the sides of my forehead where hair should be.



What can I do to make this look better? I heard shaving my head might be a good idea, but the problem is, I'm not very muscular. I'm afraid if I shave my head I might end up looking like a crack addict or an anorexic or a cancer patient. I'm also worried how long it will take for the hair to start growing back. If I shave my head, will there still be some fuzz left or pure skin? If it's pure skin, how long will it take for hair to show up?

Is there something else I can do to make this look better? I don't really like the idea of shaving my head but I've already seen the doctor for hair restoration, and she redirected me to Rogain but that genius didn't know that that stuff isn't meant for a receding hairline, which I didn't find out until reading the back if it.

Shaving is done using different attachments so you can decide how long you want the hair to be, although it is usually under 1cm.

About how much would that run me at a barber shop? I don't know jack about cutting hair, and neither does my dad as far as I know.

Buy your own razor, it costs £30 at the most and it isn't difficult to do.

Early hairloss is the fault of testosterone!
U sir are a male bulked up with testosterone, testosterone litterly pushes the hair out of its vessel so theres nothing u can do. The "good thing" is , you the your hair back on ure back and chest and belly.

Aye, I'm starting to experience some hair loss and I'm only 20.


Some options:

*1) Finasteride is a drug that has proven to stop hairloss or regain hair. It takes time with this drug, as you probably won't see any results till 6 months. This is what I'm on.

*2) Rogaine is another one that helps. It is also proven to work. It is mostly for the vortex of your head but it can work for all the scalp. But you know about this already.

3) Surgery

4) Just let it go.

*Be warned, with these options you will be on them FOR LIFE because if you stop using them, your hair will continue to fall out. They are VERY expensive.


In the meantime, I suggest you cut your hair short so no one notices. You don't have to completely shave it off. That is a bit extreme. Just cut it really short.

Edit: One more thing. This isn't proven or anything but it has been researched that over masturbation can increase your DHT levels, which is linked with hairloss. Once again, it isn't proven yet but it is worth a try. So cut down on the masturbation.

I feel your pain bro and my advice would be to just accept and embrace it. Don't bother with all these fancy drugs, your going bald no matter what. The sooner you accept it, the easier it will be to get on with life.

This, sucks for you but there's nothing you can do tbfh

Whatever you say darknet.

So Rogaine can work wonders on the hairline aswell and not just the vortex?

I'd rather save up and do the laser hair treatment or the stem cell treatment.
