What do you think about his hair? He has a V shape... NW2?

 

[Cassin]

He has a full head of hair with natural mature hair line. He is not balding let alone anything close to a NW2.

 

[s.a.f]

Thats just how his hair is styled he has a FULL head of hair. :roll:

 

[Cassin]

I would wipe out an endangered species for his hair

NW2=mature hairline.
NW1= Little kid's hairline.

Cooper is an NW2.

 

[Cassin]

so suddenly mature hair line is a Norwood 2 eh?

ok.....

 

[Cassin]

and let me be the first so say that the Norwood scale sucks but this guy isn't a Norwood 2

then what Norwood is he cassin?

looks like a 2 to me

cheers

 

[Cassin]

simply a mature hairline with a guy who has really gray hair.

If he dyed his hair it would look far better.

One thing I have learned from these forums is people desperately want celebrities to be balding so there is little use for me to argue this further.

 

[BodyDysmorphic]

a mature hairline being an NW2

correct?

and let me be the first so say that the Norwood scale sucks but this guy isn't a Norwood 2

in this post you said he wasn't

so what Norwood is he?

cheers

 

[Cassin]

I have answered that a few times now...

its a MATURE hair line....

but see what you want from it.

 

[ClayShaw]

Cooper has a mature man's hairline, which is an NW2.

 

[BodyDysmorphic]

i just wanted cassin to say he is an nw2

and he never did.....but i think he says he did

cheers

 

[Fanjeera]

That's NW1. Just look at the scale.

 

[cuebald]

NW1.5

 

[Cassin]

clearly he will be bald within a year

Cassin, I respect you as a long time member of this site. I am relatively new to this site and hairloss in general. It was never my intention to get into a pissing contest about something as trivial as Anderson Cooper's hair, but going back through my posts in this thread I realized I was responding to you indirectly, and my posts had the effect of creating a pissing contest.
All of my posts here are based on info I read on Dr. Rassman's site, baldingblog.com. According to him, an NW1 is the juvenile kid's hair line. He says about 3 or 4% of white men keep an NW1 into adulthood. Rassman says an NW2 is a mature hairline, and an NW3 is the first sign of what he calls "genetic balding". So if Cooper is indeed an NW2, it does not mean he is balding at all, it means he lost his teenage hairline.
I think what causes NW1/2 confusion is the shape of a given individual's hairline. It seems to me that the shapes rarely fit the chart exactly, it's more of a "How much hair have you lost" system. If you've lost your teenage hairline, regardless of its shape, you're NW2, anything beyond that is balding.
This is my interpretation of info from one guy, so its entirely possible that I'm incorrect.
Apologies if you felt like I was after you on this one. My bad.

No worries ....we're just bantering around topic having fun with it.

And fellas...the Norwood Scale is the progression/state of male pattern baldness.
