Am I Starting To Lose My Hair? 18 Years Old

[ethancreveling]

I’ve always had a double swirl cowlick, and am wondering if it looks like it is thinning, or if it’s just the way my cowlick grows. As far as I can tell, it’s been like this for as long as I can remember but just wondering if it looks like something I should be worried about. Also my hairline has looked like this for years and hasn’t gotten worse, but I’ll throw it in for good measure. Any feedback would be appreciated! I’m a freshmen in college.

What is your family history of hairloss? Do you have a dad who went bald early?

Yes, my dad has hair but it's very thin and my brother who is 23 has hair that is starting to thin out. I know I will experience hair loss at some point but I'm wondering if I have anything to worry about currently

Considering that your hair has been like this for the past few years I wouldnt be too worried right now. With that being said you will probably experience hairloss very soon probably within the next couple of years or so because you do have more loss than most 18 year olds.
