f*** hairloss man. Did ur dad bald very young too?

No my dad has all of his hair. My hair doesn’t even really look bad right now but I tried propecia a few months ago and was left with monster scalp itch....

The itching slowly improved off of propecia and I was dumb and tried to take it again... now I’m pretty sure I’m super fucked.

I just want the itching gone... I keep telling myself that I can learn to live with it but I’m really not sure if I can. It’s literally causes me to wince and flinch at times

Atleast my girlfriend is sympathetic and supportive with this bullshit. When I try to talk to my parents they tell me to see a psychiatrist

She has nothing against bald people, she married one herself but but she just hates to see me going through this and stressing so much over it.

My mom has been trying to help me with the itching which is nice. My dad just gives me lectures about how hair doesn’t matter and I need to get over it and see a psychiatrist... so easy to say when you have a full head of hair and itchless scalp...

Are you using nizorol? I find it helps a bit with a itch atleast for a few hours.

Have you considered SMP? That is my plan for when I have to shave it.
Good news is your hair looks waaay better than mine did. I had anterior pattern so my hairline was the first to go, it's awful. I've seen some decent looking SMP but I think it's hard to get it to look right. If you do it make sure you go to an expert

Look at how much hair I lost in 12 hours only today. And this is only what I caught by hand in my shower. The funny thing is, I am on finasteride for 2 months. My body doesnt respond to it at all. My balding genes are too agressive. Being proactive and catching it early didnt benefit me at all. That pic I sent was from June, my hair looks not nearly as good right now. I am going to have to shave it all off in December because It will be too thin then at this rate. Its game over, I lost hairloss in only 4 months.

Hey buddy... u are loosing tons of hair , same type of shedding that I faced in 2016....in your one of pic I saw creatine supplement or protein supplement jar at the back ground of your pics... I think they might be the reasons for your horrible hair shedding.... cause creatine is a steroid type of supplement and too much intake of protein can cause hair shedding...my best advice would be to you is to shave your head and grow your hair back I gurantee you this will halt ur hair shedding... and take a good multivitamin pill which should be rich in vitamin d , iron , biotin , zinc , B12

Being able to just accept it (truly) is respectable too. I personally don't have the balls to do that, if I was put in that situation.

That is protein powder but it does not have creatine in it. I make sure there is 0 creatine in whatever I buy, trust me I have always been very careful with hairloss stuff even as a teenager. Also, that is old lol I have to throw it out, I havent used protein powder since 2016, when I was a full thick NW1. I was just about to shave my head but my mom convinced me not to do it yet because she wants to take pictures first while I have some hair (lol moms). We both believe that after I shave bald my hair wont grow. How can you be so sure that shaving my head will grow it back and stop the shedding?

All shaving doe is reduce the hair follicle lengths to an extremely tiny length. It doesn't actually pull out the hair follice in itself.

You do it man?

My mom convinced me not to do it. She stopped me and said she wants to take pics before Its gone for good and to shave it next week instead after my birthday. We both accepted that I am losing too much hair to be able to recover from this.

Nice man, I’m glad your mom is so supportive during this. My girlfriend was with me when I shaved my head and it really helped.

Trust me it will look better than you expect. Plus you’ll be free of having to watch all the god damn hair fall....

The shave it route means you can accept fate. That legitimately requires a lot of balls to truly do. Who knows, maybe by the end this'll all just be Telogen Effluvium.
