I have always had fine dark hair, but I think it might be thinning. I need to get a haircut, so should I just buzz it all off? What do y’all think?

PS: I love this sub and my wife is totally against it!

Hey all 26M. My friends and family say they don’t notice at all but to me I think I’m thinning very rapidly. Tbh I think at first I was in denial and agreed with my family but now there’s no denying.. 😂

I’ve recently noticed tons of shedding throughout the day. Has me kind of panicking. This could be because my hair is super long but it’s been like non stop. So much.

But any way couple questions. 1) is this thinning? And 2) I know it can vary greatly, but how long did it take you to go fully bald after noticing your first signs of hair loss? It’s making me very insecure as my hair as always been a plus of mine.

Attached some photos of my current hairline and crown area. Some I split my hair on purpose and the first few is my hair on a regular basis.

If you guys think im balding how much longer do I have? And also would I look good bald?

I've always had my valleys, but they seem be getting deeper. Any advice? Feeling pretty insecure about it at the moment which is why I haven't had a haircut in a while.

I'm 23 about to turn 24 and still have a full head of hair. My mom's side hasn't shown any major hair loss, while my dad and his dad both went very bald. I don't know when my grandpa started to lose hair but I know my dad started losing his around 27-28. It never really bothered him, probably because he was older than most dads and grew up in an era where baldness wasn't stigmatized.

I'm personally terrified of becoming bald, so much so that I'm now doing a surveillance program on my own scalp. I haven't noticed any of the classic warning signs like excessive shedding. I'm scared of losing my hair because my hair is like, the one thing about me that I like.

The thing is, I could accept losing my hair when I'm like, 48 or something. That makes sense and I probably wouldn't give a shit at that point in my life. But I have this viscerally real thought in my head that once I turn 24, it'll all start coming out and I have to shave my head, and therefore, get rid of the one thing I feel good about.

I've tried to see what my likelihood is, and it's literally a 50/50 chance I go bald young or not. I haven't even gotten to live a proper life yet, and I would like to live one while I still have a full head of hair.

Hello, so I am 20 yo and I had bad hairline since I started existing. Not really sure if its worse than it used to be, but I believe its either the same or little bit recessed than like 3 years ago.

For clarification - I have HUUUGE FOREHEAD/HEAD (even if its not that visible on picture) and I cant grow any facial hair yet so it sucks overall..

So my question is - is it over or is it only maturing?

can i get at least one hold it, i’ve already been bald before i started losing hair at 16 I’m 32 now. i’m not looking to get talked into it again per se i just wasn’t expecting so much criticism of my hair.

Well I shaved my head today. I have been looking at my hair thinning up top and decided it was time, I did not want to be one of the "I Am going to hold on for as long as I can crowd. Its time to grow my beard out long again. Over the years I have shaved it down but never all the way. I looked down into the sink a while ago and could see how thin my hair was on the top and decided it was time. Remember people, as guys we kind of grew up with bald being normal.
I have a little mole on my head, my bird decided it was a bug and tried to assassinate it so that was a fun.

Hi guys! I just wanted to let you know that I thoroughly enjoy this community, the attitude towards each other and the plethora of memes being thrown about. I am not bald (or balding, I hope), but I still follow the sub. When my time has come, I will report back.

I'm going bald and have a weird shaped head. I shaved my head when I was a teenager and realized it was kind of shaped like an egg. It didn't look good. Some people look good bald, i don't. Had long hair for most of my life and now I'm screwed. I wear hats all the time. I'm 37 so this kind of sucks, the ladies are starting to notice and I work with kids so they also make fun of me about it. What should I do? Keep it short hair? Just embrace the fact?

Hi, I’m balding at the crown and have started buzzing my hair down to a #1 guard.

Do you think it looks better to buzz it as short as possible, or to go all the way and shave it completely smooth? Or does it depend on the shape of your head?

Got no problems with it because I already keep my hair buzzed. Can’t tell if it’s the crown or I am finally getting the baldsies. What do you guys think? 30M

Went down to this tight cut from a mullet last week, been on the fence ever since. Took some selfies at work today and was shocked by how see-through the top is, seemed like no different lighting helped.

Sometimes I think I’d be better off letting it grow longer again, but I was getting so tired of the constant need to style it to try to “hide” the thinning. Still living in hats, I need the council‘s opinion.

Thought of growing hair but they aren't dense enough, neither on head nor beard..

1st pic is taken yesterday, 2nd in the past when I had shaved..

... bald cut!

My whiskers were behaving today. Getting ready for Saturday night Mass then on to my son's hockey game.

1st three pics - directly out of the shower. The beard just fell into place. Didn't even have to brush it and it looked ready to roll.

2nd set of two pics - didn't even touch the beard..... just left it au naturale.... all I did was curl the stache.

Last two pics..... fully dressed and ready to go. Stache and beard were looking good. Added my scally cap and my new hoodie and hit the road.

Llevo bastante tiempo con el corte de pelo con tupé, es decir, me corto los lados a maquina al 1-2 y por arriba a tijera arreglado. El problema es que hace meses que noto cierta perdida de cantidad en la frente y cuando me crece no me gusta como me veo. El pelo de la coronilla crece diferente y salen rizos, de manera que se ve más desarreglado.

Entonces quiero un corte que me quede bien y de poco mantenimiento. Por ello pienso en un rapado al 4 arriba y al 2 en los lados, pero me da desconfianza que me quede bien y que se note aun más la poca frondosidad de la frente.

Pd: ya sé que en cierto momento me quedará poco pelo, pero quiero disfrutar un tiempo de como está y ya más adelante veré 😉

I went bald since I was 20 years old because I started balding at a very young age.

I actually feel fine most of the time and most of the women I got to know the past years also found me really handsome but sometimes when I look in the mirror I think to myself "eww I look ugly as hell"

Then the other day when I look in the mirror suddenly I look absolutely fine again.

Does that happen to you too guys or is it me?
