    How Come Hairloss Is Becoming Less Common Amongst Young People??

    So basically 75-80% of the male population have near a full set of hair by the time they're in their early 30s which proves my point :p What about 40? 50? 60?

    How Come Hairloss Is Becoming Less Common Amongst Young People??

    Ok have a look at sportstars. Have a look at the premier league, how many footballers in their 20s are severely going bald?? Very few are past nw3. Same with other sports like the NFL if you look. It seems to be getting better and better. I'm 26 and I would say my nw2.5 is worse than most...

    How Come Hairloss Is Becoming Less Common Amongst Young People??

    How come hairloss is becoming less and less common amongst younger people nowadays? In my town, I know very few people under 30 who have any sort of severe hairloss, infact the vast majority of people I know who are under 40 are no worse than a NW2-3. I hear a lot of hype about more people...

    The shaved head, my new involuntary persona, so? *PICS*

    What Norwood are you op? NW3? NW3 isn't bald, I wouldn't be shaving it at NW3, but you suit it very well IMO.

    Beckham

    What hairloss?? He's 37 and he looks a nw2. Does anyone outside this site think of him having "hairloss"?? Bump this topic in about 7 years and I'll bet you he'll be the same.

    What Exactly Is The "Average" Man's Hairloss??

    I was discussing with my father what the typical hair loss for most males is. My dad's a nw3-3.5 vertex currently at 54 (who I think I have possibly inherited off). My dad reckons he's probably better than most men his age and that if I have inherited it I should be greatful. But would he be...

    TheLastHairbender's story

    Congratulations on your regrowth thelasthairbender You have quite a bit of hair at the frontal region now, wouldn't you upgrade yourself to a nw3? I always thought nw4 was somebody who has lost most of his frontal region with a some portion left, but mostly bald nonetheless at the front. Your...

    Is a NW3 By 50 Good Going??

    What do you define as success for keeping hair? Some say maintaining a NW3 till your 50s is good going. Some are never satisfied until they are NW1 for at least the rest of their lives. My dad last photo of him a being NW1 was his passport photo around his 20th birthday (back in 1978). He...

    how old is everyone here?

    20. Will be turning 21 in august (4th). I have been noticing moderate recession for about 18 months now. Based on my dad's genetics I don't think I'll go completely bald, but I don't want to be a NW2-3 by 22.

    Quitting propecia due to sides

    I'm having the same problems too. There's been two occasions where I didn't take Propecia for about a week (late prescriptions etc) and noticebly my penis went back to normal within that period. Only thing though is that my hair was beginning to shed as well. Is there anything you can take...

    stopping propecia for a week or two

    Be careful though, I went off Propecia for 3 1/2 weeks and lost some temple hair which I had maintained while on Propecia during the past 3 months. So in effect some of that hard work done by Propecia for me went to waste as I was then in no better position had I never been on the drug in the...

    27 months of minoxidil, 17 months on finasteride

    Wow looking good, I'm in a similar position and have been starting to get some of my hairline back and I've only been on the meds for 4 months. Just a question for the OP though, did those minoxidil hairs grow out to be as long as the rest of your hair?

    Anyone see body hair decrease on Propecia/Proscar etc...?

    Well I'm only 20. Before I went on finasteride, I only had 4 chest hairs, so during the time I was on finasteride I stayed on 4 chest hairs. However I went off it between the 4th and 28th of february and I can now tell you I have 30+ chest hairs (all short new ones though!). I'm not sure if that's a...
