Worried About The Thinness Of My Hair, 20 Years Old.

[Alexander Brasher]

So I’m sure there are tons of posts similar to this and I don’t mean to be selfish asking for help, but I’m 20 years old and I’ve had thin hair my whole life. Nobody in my family has experienced baldness aside from my grandfather who’s nearing his 70’s. The spot at my crown and general thinness and visibility of my scalp make me wonder if I’m just the unlucky one with a dormant gene in my family or something. Anyways please let me know if I’m just crazy or if I should start treatment to prevent this from getting worse. I’ve attached a variety of photos to give different angles on the thinness + my high hairline, as well as one normal one of how I wear it. Thank you so much.

That makes me feel better but I’m not sure what I’d get on if I needed anything, I’d prefer to not have to use a product but I would if I had to.

I think you’re over reacting like me. Just get off this forum. It’s just going to make you feel worse or thinking you have problems you don’t have. I went to see a derm to ease my mind and actually look at my crown and such. Made me feel great after. I still check on this forum once an awhile and it’s horrible for your mental health. Trust me.

It’s like a quarter life crisis we go through. Afraid we’re going to be bald by 30 and never find our wife and just fail at life and be lonely. When actually all of those are highly unlikely. As you can see from my post today it’s something on my mind all the time. It’s sooooo mentally draining worrying about what could possibly happen to my hair but could also never happen. But the unknown can be scary, something we have no control over. I know people joke about there was said to be a cure 20 years ago. But honestly I think In the next 20 years some better solution is bound to prevail whether it be cloning, stem cells, or a better maintenance regimen. They are starting to reproduce human organs, you’re telling me they’ll never figure out hair? They will someday
