Hey guys, i'm 18 and i started noticing that i've been losing hair in the shower lately. it started a month ago when i was at the beach on vacation for a bit. I am very scared of going bald. My dad is completely bald but i heard it comes from the mothers side. Nobody is bald on my mothers side. I wouldn't say i'm losing more than 100 a day. When i wake up i find some hairs on the pillow, nothing crazy just like 3-5 hairs. but in the shower i feel like i lose way more. At first i was shedding a bit more but it seemed to calm down a bit. i lose about 30-40 in the shower and when i dry. I will add pictures to this post. it does not seem like my hair line is receding it's been a month since i started losing hair and my hair looks quite full still. My parents think i'm crazy so i'm not gonna go to a doctor. I also just recently made a move from California all the way to Egypt so the weathers different here. i've also been losing hairs above the sideburn area like not the average MBP areas and literally my hairline isn't receding yet. Its basically i'm losing hair all over. No one has said anything to me about it so i guess it isn't noticeable. Sorry if i'm rambling on about this but basically what the f*** is going on.

I don't see any issues man. No thinning. No receding. I would kill to have your hair.

It's normal to shed that much per day.

If you are concerned just keep an eye on it but you pretty much have perfect hair.

It's also not true that balding gene only comes from the mothers side. You can get the gene from your dad which has been scientifically proven.

thanks bobster for the reply really appreciate it man. But i'm only worried because i just started to notice this. maybe now i don't have a receding hairline, but fast forward a month and my hair will be completely different than it is now. I'm new to all this so i really don't know how balding works or how fast/slow the progress of balding is. It's been a month since i started paying attention. If i was balding would i have seen a difference in this month?

Keep an eye on your temples. The first stages of male pattern baldness they will start to recede. However they might just recede into a mature hairline. From what I can tell you haven't receded. And even if they do its normal. It's rare than anyone keeps an entirely straight hairline.

I don't think you should worry. But if you notice increased shedding and thinning than it would be time to take action. But you look like a thick Norwood 1 to me.

Enjoy it and hope it stays that way.
