Is It True That Hair Thickness And Texture Variation Is Normal?

It doesn't vary in an extreme fashion. I would monitor that area of your hair and take pictures every several months to make sure it isn't getting worse, nor is any other part of your hair.

I read from another post on another forum, that someone went to a hair hair transplant doctor worried that he was balding. The hair at the back of the head was thick and black, and the hair at the top was thinner and lighter. The doctor tugged his hair and it seemed fine, and he told him - "-it's normal for hair thickness and texture to vary across the scalp."

Is this true? The whole reason I'm in these forums is I've noticed a section on the top-left side of my head where the hair is thinner and lighter, although the hair does not come out if tugged and there is no shedding.

In a healthy scalp, not to the point that it would be noticeable to the naked eye. I mean I guess it is possible, but not common. And if you've only just noticed this recently, chances are it wasn't there before. Keep an eye on that.
