Can’t Tell If I’m Balding Or Paranoid

[Jeffisanameiuse123]

I’m a very paranoid person and I’ve been stressed lately. I never worried about my hair until I was starting to become depressed at 19 and now I obsess over it. My dad has all his hair but his crowns a little thin, my grandpa still has his hair, my brothers hair is kinda thin though but he’s into his 30s and his hair has more or less straightened out as it used to be very curly. I’m almost 21 and have very curly hair. My scalp is usually kinda sore to the touch too, and I used to pick/scratch at it a lot growing up. The left side of my hairline is typically itchy or sore and just seems thinner to me than the rest of my hair. My forehead close to my hairline also gets red and itchy/sore too. I don’t really notice an excess of shedded hair on my pillow in the morning unless I’ve been scratching at my head, also my hair can get very greasy and I have to wash it everyday. My crown area is ok I think it’s just my hairline I mainly worry about now. But let me know what you think I really don’t want to worry about it anymore.

Hard to tell. Doesn't look bad. You have a lot of fuzzy hairs still in the temple areas, filling in...

Best advice for you is that you should go see a dermatologist.

It's probably baby hair. He has a straight hairline. Signs of balding are usually a receeded hairline with small hairs. But his is a straight hairline.

No sign of hair loss that I can see.

Could you send pics of your crown if possible.Will have a better idea.

The hairline shows the classic forst signs of recession, minutarization. And def not "filling in", often these to are mistaken, but since there is no program, it sure as hell arn't any new hairs...
Get on a treatment asap.

See a derm. Hard to tell. Don’t start treatment until you see a medical professional!
