i noticed my friend’s hair is starting to think out fast. I think it actually looks worse than mine cause his is so short and can’t run a cover up game when it’s greasy like in this pic. I don’t think he knows yet because he made fun of bald/balding people and mentioned he wants to go swimming (uh oh).

Should I let him know and tell him about finasteride? Also lemme know what u think of his pic, does he looks worse off than mine? Tbh I think it’s a bit more noticeable because he doesn’t keep it long. I wonder if other people notice it.

yes. Tell him. If he already knows, maybe he doesn't realize the extent.
He still has enough hair to make a recovery on his crown without too much effort.
Im not sure about his hairline & temples though.

Idk I feel super awkward telling him. He might freak out hard. He wears hats a lot but I think he always has. I’m pretty sure he has no clue :0

I got pretty bad without noticing, never tended to look at that back of my head very much and my hairline is fine. Wasn't until a friend pointed it out did i check and see that it was really bad.

I guess when people don’t point it out to you. Also I really don’t think other people see it as balding. No ones obviously mentioned it to him. But his girlfriend of 2 years just broke up with him. Hopefully it’s not related...

Yes, should tell him to make sure he is aware. Thats what I wouldve wanted atleast if I was him. If he knows you dont have to discuss it anymore, if he didnt he is either gonna be thankful or dont care about it. Not telling him and making himself realize it when its even worse is just gonna cause a lot of problems if he wanna try to do something about it.

Ill keep it in mind. He’s a bit of a narcissist and a**h** tho. So it makes it a little tense. Maybe when we’re drinking one night I’ll mention it and keep u guys updated.
