Is Some Hairloss In Early 20s Normal For Most Men?

[recedingornot87]

I know on this forum any small miniaturized hairs or thinning means going bald and to get on finasteride asap but when I go outside I notice that a lot of people in early 20s to mid 30s dont have a perfect NW1 hairline. Its mostly somewhere between NW1-NW2.5ish. I also dont see a lot of NW3+ guys either. I feel like a lot of people jump on finasteride early at the first sight of hairloss when in reality for most people it reaches like NW1.5 and stays there for a decade or so.

My question is, at what point would you consider someone to be actually balding and reccomend them to get on treatments? Like right now im like a NW1.5 or so with some thinning and have propecia with me but im really hesistant to take it because it feels like I wont ever actually go over NW3. But then again my dad went to NW6ish so idek.

from my experience and what I see with most people in my age group, minor recession is fairly normal in your twenties. When I refer to minor, I am pointing towards a more mature hairline where the widows peak comes in formation, and one starts to loose that monkey hairline horizontal hairline.

A lot of people tend to have there hairline creep back a bit and enter a NW2A category. However I would say a NW3, NW3V in your twenties is not that common. I would even go as far to say that NW2A is pushing it! most people just develop a mature hairline with minimal recession.

Seeing someone with thick juvenile norwood -1 in there twenties is rare. But when you see it, you can tell how lucky they are.

Sure. If you use Accutane or roids.
