From my knowledge, only a doctor with a proscope can check for miniturised hairs. You cannot see miniturised hair using the naked eye. If I were you, I would book a consultation with a reputable hair loss doctor and ask them to use a proscope to look for miniturisation. Only then can they tell...

Bump. Can someone please explain what 'head growth is'? Thanks

Hi, thanks for your reply. Can I ask, what exactly is head growth? Thanks

Pictures can be deceiving. I would visit a proper dermatologist that specialises in hair loss, or a hair loss surgeon, to get a miniturzation analysis carried out. That's the only way of knowing definitively. Your hair does look thinner at the crown, but get a minitruziation test done before you...

Your hair looks great! Can I ask though, has one side of your hairline always been a bit 'deeper' than the other side? I ask as my frontal hairline is pretty much exactly like yours. I have a normal hairline on left side but the right size is a bit deeper. What hairstyle do you go with and...

Haha too right. Piled on the pounds during uni and now working etc. Not an excuse but I need to get my fitness into shape too. Does anyone else see any differences? And what about the hair growth in the middle or has that always been there?

From my experience, and I am a newbie, the only way to definitively tell is to see a hair loss doctor and get a miniturisation analysis done. That's the only way to make sure.

Thanks. Anyone else have any input? Would be grateful. EDIT: and what about the bit in the middle? Is that new hair?

Nope no balding on the crown. Can I ask where you see the change please? Thanks.

Pictures from 5/6 years ago, I apologise for some of the weird facial expressions:

Hey everyone Noticed some hairline threads, so I decided to cut my hair short to see if my hairline has changed. I got a level 2 on the sides and a level 3/4 on the top, as I read it was good to cut hair short as possible to look at hairline, and plus, my old photos that I'm comparing it too...

Yeah sure, I've attached some dry hair pics. These were taken under direct bathroom light and under direct sunlight with my hair pushed back. I think it looks fine? If I lie it down, like in the last picture, I think it looks fine? Also attached a picture with me in the blue top and army gear...

Thanks man. Yeah i've got a feeling my hair has always been like this. When I grow it out to the stage it is now, and run my hair through it, it feels the same, haven't notice the texture or thickness declining, but ofc, this isn't a scientific test. Thankfully i've got rid of my seborrheic...

Thank you again for taking the time to reply! I really appreciate it from everyone here. My dermatologist is one of the best in the country, and specialises in hairloss, i'm kicking myself for not asking this question to them directly, but unfortunately my time ran out. You state that the...

Thanks. So it's possible to be a diffuse thinner without miniturisation? EDIT - I've found a few links which state that diffuse thinning is also caused by miniturisation. Has anyone else heard/read this? Therefore if this sounds correct, is it unlikely that I'm balding as I have no miniturisation?
