Hey fellow hair loss victims, I started losing my hair at the measly age of 15 when I was receding and knew it deep inside, yet the family was in denial. I'm sure most of you have been through it as well; knowing you're losing your hair at a young age yet no one wants to admit it, thinking they're doing you a favour by sugar coating the truth: "But that's just your natural hairline, you're not losing your hair!". As usual, my suspicions turned out true and at 28, I don't know what norwood level I am but my hair is ****ed up. I don't know if it's common for hair loss victims to also have ****ty hair or if I'm an alien, because I can't grow my hair more than a couple inches without it looking weird, frizzy, dry ends that curl up... not to mention the top of my scalp doesn't grow more than 3/4" since 5 years ago and that's counting the hair that actually does grow.
I wear a cap or beanie nigh 24/7 unless if I'm in bed or the shower because buzzing my hair just doesn't suite me like it does Andre Agassi etc. I used to loathe it but depression and hopelessness has a way of building thick skin, as hair was one of the 30 things that went wrong in my life - oh well. I've considered wigs but don't have the funds atm as I've just moved and having a hard time paying rent let alone have enough funds for food. C'est la Vie.
In retrospect, my post made it seem like I have a full head of hair, but alas, this isn't the case, as I've lost most of the hair on the top of my scalp save for a few measly hairs on the top that won't grow past 1 inch. I can't even grow my hair out in the back as it ends up looking bizarre, curling up and dry, frizzy and going everywhere like something out of Cuthulu Mythos. I might as well stitch octopus tentacles on my head and it would look 10x better honestly.
Greetings Hairlosstalk
