I havent talked abiut that theory in days. I take it this anger towards me is because of the thing i said about anime the other day. And sorry shoegazing. I thought you were will be an egg in 5 years because the reddit pictures you attached were so big that i didnt see your username.
I didn't reply your comment to prove the contrary of anything you said. I just wanted to show you, and any other people here, what I've seen. Put the link and nothing else. And I don't mind this thing about anime, I thought you would be one of those stupid people who associate anime with stupid acts, that's all. I'm fine, man. I don't like discussions over nothing. Peace

Also 21 is a very young age for hairloss so even if he was losing hair it probably wouldnt happen at 21. Thats a very young age and uncommon.

You can't be serious. No way you're in a hairloss forum that long and keeps saying sh*t like that. 21 is very common age to start balding. Some are NW5 by 21. Mine own baldness started at 21.

You're delusonal.

you were saying 'ask you again in 5 years', that sounded like you were saying he was gonna have severe hairloss at that age. In real life its not that common, all the unlucky people who bald very early flock to this site which is why you see so many.

What I meant was that if it he's really losing his hair, which I suspect he is, It's gonna look worse 5 years from now. Not saying he will be a NW7 at 21, but it will progress. If you start balding at 25 and it's an agressive pattern, it will be worse when you reach 30 if you don't treat it or don't respond to it. That's how it works.

@Siisid

You’re not balding. You have a perfectly normal and healthy head of hair for a 16 year old male.

You do however have signs of OCD so do yourself a huge favour and get off this forum and go live you life - enjoy it to the full.

This site is full of warped and dramatic viewpoints from hair obsessed individuals, who will consider every possible angle or outcome, and will apply it like they are medically trained experts, when they really are not.

Your hair is absolutely normal. You really need to forget about this site and your get on with your life.

If you feel you cannot, go see a hair transplant specialist as they know more about hair loss and the signs, more than anyone else in my view. Tell them how you feel and how this is impacting your life and I am certain they will examine your hair and tell you that you are not balding.

All the best kid. Try go have fun and forget about this forum.

You are studying your hair so closely that you are noticing every little imperfection with you hair, which we all have.

My hairline was never perfect, ever, and I still have a full head of hair at 41.

No offence but your hair is similar to a lot of girls and women. This is common in a young man. If you were to study the hair of many females under such close scrutiny, you will notice the same.

What you have along your hairline is what some people refer to as ‘baby hairs’ which are with you from a very young age. They are fine hairs found along the hairline of young and adolescent children.

The biggest thing however that you are noticing is the high contrast between dark hair light skin on your scalp. Again, you will notice this in other non balding people if you look close enough. I see this so confused with perceived ‘thinning’ on this forum.

No offence to the egg guy you refer to, but I do not agree with one comment he made. I have seen multiple people with full heads of hair posting on here and there will always be someone who says “ I think you might be balding” - As I’ve said before, you are not balding.

In addition you appear to be of east asian heritage - east asian men very rarely loose hair at such a young age, if ever at all in their life.

Can I ask, what triggered this whole obsession? Was it a comment a friend or family member made? Is your Dad bald? What set it off?

Yep, I understand. All those things can make a person become self critical, trust me, we’ve all done it. However, sadly, it is just part of growing up - most people eventually learn to not give a damn about the negative behaviour of others, they also realise that the opinions of others are actually completely and utterly irrelevant.

Most people criticise others to make themselves feel better about their own faults. You probably know that already.

I’m afraid that all men carry the risk of loosing hair at some stage in their life. I genuinely cannot see that at all with your hair at the moment. Not at all.

As you get older, should it happen, their are multiple treatments and options available to you. But no point even thinking about that right now, just go smash life and have fun. We’re all only here once!
