[Norwoody]

Still pretty good. Keep trusting the process

Your hairline still looks good and looks like a NW1 still. Your hair follicles just are not closely packed with thick caliber hair so your natural density is going to look thin to you now that you have become a Norwood spotter. Overall, your hair density is decent enough to look thick when dry. This guy has top tier density in his 40's but unfortunately died after developing the famous Ordinary cosmetic line. The video talks about reversing gray hair.

 

[I wont lose this]

my man do be looking like Kanaboon's Maguro

,

nice hair tho, for your age.

It does not look aggressive

Since my hair loss is not aggressive, should I expect finasteride to completely halt my hair loss instead of slowing it down over time?

 

[Norwoody]

Yes

 

[infamousrodi]

Yes

Ok that is what I'm hoping for. On month two of finasteride no sides to report only dry eyes a few weeks ago not sure if this is a side effect or not. Can sides occur at any time while on finaterside? On month two and so far so good except the eyes feeling dry. Libido still great! Just concerned of being on finasteride long term as that is what I'm planning to do. Not sure what ways it could mess with my body.

Just the corners are the noticeable changes

Corners does that mean balding? Did they thin out?

 

[Norwoody]

Slight temple recession but not aggressive at all over an 8 year span during the time when male pattern baldness is supposed to be the most aggressive. Good signs, stay positive and try to stay away from this forum for a few more months.

Can’t it pick up at my age and turn aggressive? Would you say I went from Norwood 1 to Norwood 2, Norwoody?

 

[Norwoody]

Anything is possible. I'd say you went from 1 to 1.5.

Is it normal for one side to
Be Norwood 1 and other 1.5? Seems kind of odd

 

[Norwoody]

It's normal

Update on crown. How is it looking?

 

[Norwoody]

There's nothing even noticeable there. Don't worry. Try to relax and live your life these next few months then check back in.
