Dude you look good no homo, you’d def pull of the bald look, I’m 26 same position as you maybe a little thinner. IMO you’re imagining seeing final pattern, it might be there; don’t get me wrong but isn’t visible to anyone but you
Damn dude, i really appriciate your opinion! Haha you might be right. This balding thing is turning into a obsession sometimes..

I don't see anything related to a NW7. Your vertex area doesn't look like it has any balding/thinning at all. You have a haircut where it's normal to see scalp and everyone has visible scalp around vertex hair/whorl. I'm jealous of your hair in the back haha. Your hairline has receded but if you can maintain there I think it looks fine. Many guys getting close to 30 have a similar situation. I'd just keep up regimen and stop worrying. That's easier said than done I know (in the same boat).

Hairloss comes from mother esp premature one.if one of your maternal uncles or your grandfather was bald then only dutasteride and hair transplant will save you.

I don't think this is anything but speculation. My maternal uncles and grandfather are all bald and I did get pretty early hairloss. However I have been on finasteride for 6 years with really good results. So recommending dutasteride and a hair transplant based on speculative genetic analysis is not good advice imho.

OP, that is a cowlick in the back. Many people have thin hair around their whorl as it's where the hair comes from. If you have super thick hair you may not see it. However you have fine, blond hair so that is perfectly normal.

Trust me, there is thinning going on all over my scalp. 50% density left. I think it’s maintaining 9 months in.

My crown is thinning, no doubt about it. Confirmed by friends and family.

Trust me, people know. VERY diffuse norwood 3.5.
My regime is maintaining me at this shitty hair, no more unfortunately. Beginning to work on acceptence now - i know my hairloss, and it’s fairly aggressive. Although i don’t want to be a bald guy, i dont think i’ve got much of a choice. Fighting the battle, but my genetics are strong.
you would look great with a buzzcut you have good head shape and the beard really suits you.. you look good man there's nothing to worry about.. I hope you succeed in maintaining good amount of hair though

Appreciate your opinion mate. I’m just f*****g scared about my headshape - it’s kind of oblong. Working on acceptance right now. Maybe tsuji saves us all one day!

Hey man, im im also in similiar situation. Dad was a nw7 in his mid 20s and I see a thin nw6 pattern developing. The only thing we can do is be on finasteride and minoxidil and just pray lol.

Considering ur dad was a full nw7 at 27 and you still have okayish hair and got on finasteride I dont think you are going to face the same fate as him, atleast not at 27.

“You have fine blond hair” trust me, it wasn’t like that before. At had a thick head of hair until the age of 18 where it all started.

I hope not, but there’s not much left in the front and its thinning badly. So once’s that’s gone, i think its time for a buzz.
