Were you an early bloomer? At this age do you think you're still growing?I am balding since puberty begun. Got widow peaks / maturing hair line when I was 13.
I can't remember how my juvenile hairline looked like, but in photos it looked like it was fused to my eyebrows, lol.
And now I am balding on the top and crown, lost more than 50% density and will definitely be totally bald in 3-4 years.
I am 17 years old now. F this sh*t. Puberty made me look ugly, while others have got a goddamn blow-up. I-... I want to be 10 years old again.
No. I am not growing for 1+ year. And yes, I am an early bloomer. I was able to grow a full beard by the age of 15.
Extremely common???
Yeah. We're not talking about NW6 at 16 lmao. But we're talking more NW2ish guys in the middle of puberty. Mature hairlines is just mild male pattern baldness at NW1/2.
So you started losing hair at 13 and stopped growing at 16. Very interesting parallels.
It would seem your hairline didn't move much but diffuse thinning took over. You're at around NW2 still hairline wise.
So you started growth at what age and stopped at 16? Was it just one massive spurt that coincided with severe hairline recession?
Hmm, can’t say I’ve heard of that being extremely common during puberty, I thought the whole mature hairline stuff was supposed to happen in your late teens-20s. For me I feel like my hair got thicker and better during puberty, but then it started rapidly deteriorating after it ended at 15-16.
I just want to have normal hair like all the other teenies in my life. It sucks going to school or to public and seeing everyone with great hair, only me, a genetic defect, being ugly. XD
In Reddit there are so many stories. None of them are from tressless. A lot of them are from either r/bald or r/malehairadvice. I literally saw a guy who was NW3 at 16 and still grew in height until he was 19. He literally had weiner shaped hairline that he shaved off. Only to discover 11 years later that he was still a thick NW3.
My hairline got receded before I even started heavily growing.
Yeah everyone is different. Its a genetic trait. I will be in a few years a full blown NW7, yey.
And people say you will go always go slick bald in a matter of years if you start balding young. Idk if that’s true really.
Yeah, I'm sorry for asking too many questions. But I just wanted to have some perspectives to disprove the notion that male pattern baldness is a sign that puberty is over lol.
That's not really true, or objectively true at least. The likelihood of it happening is high, but usually you can look at other factors rather than age/level of puberty to see how bad a person will bald. For those who bald super fast at a young age, they usually have several if not all male members of their family bald to an NW4+. There was another guy in a pomade sub who I met who suddenly jumped from NW0 to 2 when he turned 17. He is now almost 26 with the same hair.
