The Stats On Balding Are Complete Horsesh*tt

[brahmabull117]

"only 50% of men are affected by balding by age 50" - seriously who comes up with this nonsense?


The percent of men who have good hair (in terms of both a decent hairline and good density) is like 10% by age 50-80. Even the vast majority of those with decent to good hairline have horrible density by their later years


The vast vast majority of men basically go bald for all intensive purposes. A NW2 hairline means nothing when you have terrible density

Normie studies have garbage standards

I don't know who comes up with nonsense of only 50% of men are affected by balding by age 50


I would say 90% of men are affected by balding by age 50-60

Ive also resd that they say 85 percent of men suffer from noticble thinning and receding by 50. Which makes sense. Ethnicity plays a role also.

I have also seen this fact! Almost all men with age 50 or more have poor hairline and density. Only few 10 have good hairlines on 50 onwards. This explain why hairloss is rampant. If you are a man you will be bald sooner or later.

It’s bizarre to see the amount of men who begin losing hair at such an early age. If I go out to the mall, I rarely see any teenagers who are an NW0...

Asian people tend to keep their hair longer. And their hairloss is less severe then whites.

It's funny how you start paying attention to other men's hair when you're losing your own. I never looked at or gave a thought to any man's hair until the last few months. Now I'm always noticing degree of hair loss and approximate age.

I’m obsessed with looking at other people’s hair nowadays... I do notice a few white men who are in their older ages (60s/70s) who have a full head of hair. Older women have such thick hair too!

Hair thinning is inevitable part of aging that every human being will experience. Even people with greatest hair will have noticeably thinning hair if given enough time to live. It's like some people go gray earlier than others and faster than others. Some go gray later and very slowly. It's the same. Some thin out earlier, and some later. It's called involutional alopecia. But yes. About the classic pattern hair loss which has greater degree than involutional alopecia, only god knows the real stats, but according to this article 31.6% of men participating in the study with mean age 57.5 years report no hair loss.British men have one of highest rate of balding due to their ancestry and cloudy weather. That means that 70% of men have some sort of noticeable balding by the time they reach 60. The rest are still Norwood 1 or none. I don't know about 70s and 80s but I see that many old guys who have little or no hair loss. I don't know the actual percentage but some people just have won the genetic lottery and lack the genetic ability of the body developing fibrosis and won't go bald no matter how old they get and no matter their health condition and no matter what they consume. But hair thinning is inevitable.

I don’t think hair thinning is inevitable. I have seen multiple people who have such great density but the texture of the hairs has broken and and become overly fine and breaks easily. It can give the appearance that the person has thinning hair, but it’s just the inevitable change in texture. (I’m talking about women in particular)

I highly doubt castrated men would experience hair loss either. It would just be a similar situation to women, with the texture of the hairs changing.

This is so true.

What about asian men?

 

[Sladewilson]

Also, a bit off topic, but I have yet to see someone whose hair has started greying very early on (early to mid 20's) go bald at a young age. It's like some sort of a shield.

Can someone add some weight to that observation?

I started to get grey hairs at the age of 16 and I'm diffuse thinning now at the age of 26.

I don't know about asians. But Hispanics topically don't lose their hair as much as north Europeans do. Look at this guy. He's 104 year old in this photo. He's an example of these people who will never go bald no matter how old they get. He's also a proof that if you have juvenile hairline by age 25, you will keep it forever. Most men have lost this hairline by the time they are 18-20.

He might have some slight thinning if you loook close. But yes some guys have pefect hair until death. Also having a juvilille hairline even at 25 or older doesnt 100 percent mean you will keep your hair.

Juvenile

 

[Michael1986]

As stated, a juvenile hairline at age 25 does not in any way guarantee you will not succumb to male pattern baldness at some point later in your life.

Some men simply never lose any of their hair to male pattern baldness. I saw a man who appeared to be in his 80s earlier today who had a thick Nw1. I also know a guy who was a Nw7 at age 20. Its all down to your genes.

Ethnicity is a big factor in the prevalence of male pattern baldness. Caucasians are the most prone, followed closely by Afro-Caribbeans. Asians have a much lower incidence of male pattern baldness, and aborigine australians even lower. Native Americans are pretty much immune, assuming they are full-blooded.
