Can everyone post what they are on the Norwood scale here?

[Guest]

please.

Personally, I'm a bit fed up with listening to all the these failure stories from people who don't post what they are on the NWS. it gives people a distorted picture of what is actually going on.

For example, if Dick posted that - "AFTER 6 MONTHS PROPECIA HAS DONE NOTHING FOR MY HAIR!!!!!!" and fails to post how much hair he had to begin with, which ended up being a norwood 5, it gives us browsers no confidence at all, because we think he was a 2 or 3 to start with.

So can you all post what you currently are on the norwood scale here please?

If not here, can admin put a sticky thread for regulars to post their what they are so we don't have to keep looking.

Sorry to moan, but it's a bugger!

:freaked2:

I'm 2.5, almost a 3.

.5 if even that

Being a diffuse thinner with a surgically repaired hairline, it's difficult to guage. If I had gone au natural, I'd estimate myself to be a 3V, but with the treatments, I'm a 1-1.5 with overall diffuse thinning.

2-3 but i think propecia helping, my month 4 pictures will be posted the beginning(1-7) of august

Er. Let's see. I think I was a Norwood 4 or so when I started taking Propecia. Propecia improved my hairline to a Norwood 1.5 or 2 I think. And my hair in the back got a LOT better. So, I'd say I went from a Norwood 4 to a Norwood 2V (but with some frontal thinning - not noticable though if I grew my hair out). Now I'm a Norwood 2.5V, but with a lot more thinning. For those of you not in the know, I discontinued Propecia about 8 or 9 months ago. Currently dealing with MAJOR sexual dysfunction. Grrr. I hate life.

But fer seriousness. Like a 1 or something. Slight recession and thin in the back. Not bad, but enough to make me skiddish.

Define a 'failure' though... Who's to say what you would have looked like the day you cried failure if you DIDN'T start. Even slowing hairloss is a success story.

Agressive 1.5 approaching 2 with overall diffuse thinning.

Sounds pleasant doesn't it?

 

[unknown]

don't really know where i would fall on the Norwood scale. i have lost alot of hair where i parted my hair in the middle and my hairline has receded yet i still have some thick hairs left on the hairline. i lose hair from my sides and back and even from my sideburns. i guess i am in the "norwood you are sh*t out of luck" category or something :evil:

Norwood 2 No vertex loss, just temple recession.

 

[Trilidon]

Norwood 1 I suppose, temple recession getting thinner all over the top though.



Propecia fucked me up sexually pretty bad as well =P

 

[Axon]

Norwood 1.5-2. Vertex thinning.

 

[VoRteX]

hard to say exactly for me because I had a bigass forhead before I ever started thinning and a naturally high hairline.

I could probably qualify as a nw2 holding stable at present. Mild vertex loss but still have enough hair to conceal it.

Me Too Vortex, I have a five head.

Norwood 3. Propecia improved it to NW1.5, but had to discontinue it due to sexual side effects. Now back to Norwood 3 once again. 3 weeks back performed a 1500graft hair transplant from H&W. Waiting to see some results, I hope that would bring myself down to NW1.5

 

[speedy]

Norwood 1 -2 with diffusive thinning :rockon:

 

[HairFreak]

Norwood 1.5

 

[umab]

I am 4-5.

 

[Gumbo boy]

I am a Norwood 12. My hair actually grows in reverse, into my head.

NW2 on Propecia for a few years. On top of that, started thining all over 6 months ago. Although I never find many hairs. Strange. Years ago, before I started Propecia, I had hairs clogging my shower drain.
