Yeah he might be right about the headphones. Plus it's common for hair be naturally parted in the crown area.

Streamer Realises He Is Going Bald
- Thread starter PS9
- Start date
My mother's side doesn't have a lot of balding, so I'm lucky to have a lot of her genes. I have a full and healthy head of hair at 25, though it's not like a lot of 25 year olds don't.
I never got laid with hair. Only without.
Checkmate, hair people!
Massive life.
Yeah 32 here and definitely starting to thin at the top there. Lucky I have curly hair so I can hide it a bit but yeah... gotta start hitting the gym I suppose..
I already buzz/shave my head so if I went bald, I wouldn't care. People going bald should just shave it off. Stop clinging on to what's clearly going away if you're not paying for treatment.
my wife pulls out more hair in the shower than I have on my head. She has the thickest hair I've ever seen.
I began to go bald in my late 20's. I spent a lot of money on hair cuts to hide what was going on. Eventually, I hit a point where I realized I could go bald, choose to shave off my hair, or fight it. I embraced my bald dome and never looked back. Less expensive, less upkeep, and I have a round head so it looks good. It felt good to feel like I was choosing my style of hair versus fighting the inevitable.
I get that some people may want to fight it, but the reality is you shouldn't feel forced to keep up with hair. It's nothing to be ashamed of.

I've always had really short hair. Since COVID became a thing, I've just let it grow, and it's pretty long now. I'm 44, but I've got long blonde/light brown hair. My two younger brothers (42 and 34 yr old) keep mocking me, and I'm like "Motherfuckers, you're balding, and you're grey!"
I've kind of feared it, but I think I'm in the clear. I've shed a lot, but no bald spots. It doesn't seem to run in the family either. I'll die of old age with a full head of hair. I'm in my late 20s. I have a friend in his mid 20s who already has a receding hairline.
Cunt is balding from the front and is reminded every time he looks in the mirror
32 and I've been bald for years now. Sure it sucks, but it's not that big of a deal. I'm happier now then when I was still trying to hide the fact that I was balding.
I've been paranoid about going bald for a few years now. I'm 33 but have a high hairline so can never tell if my hair is receding.
At least Covid let me grow my hair long. Got to try some hairstyles out before I lose it all lol.

What's the truth then? As my hair definitely seems to have more in common with my mothers father than my father or his father.
like most physical attributes it's multi factorial. The moms side of the genes thing is an old wives tale. From a genetic standpoint there's multiple genetic loci involved, that are inherited both maternally and paternally
I hear that it kills your sexdrive and coom ability. What's your experiance?
Bald men on both sides of my family so I know it's coming. Currently talking finasteride to delay it. Problem is I got a young looking face, can't grow a beard, and am very skinny. And short to boot!
Damn :(
I'm extremely lucky in this regard. My hairdresser says that I have an absolutely insane amount (volume) of hair and that there's no way I'll ever become bald. Sometimes he jokingly says that I have so much hair that he should charge me double lol.
And I've noticed it too of course, I have way too much hair on my head, it's insane. But hey, that's good. Also, no one in my family is bald!

COVID made face the inevitable a lot sooner. I cut it every couple of weeks with a half guard. I think I look pretty good.
This was me but in April when quarantine was at peak. I'll never go back, I look and feel much better bald.
I've been balding/bald since I was 18 (over 10 years ago). While I personally hated my hair and feel like I look better bald than I ever did with it, there are frequently scenarios where I think, "OK, but if I had hair how would that have gone differently?" It's something I'm constantly reminded of, not least of all because I have to shave my head every single day because the hair I do still have comes in quick, thick, and dark. My heart goes out to anyone embarking on that journey.
i was 16 when i started losing my hair. always had really thin hair. i used to dye/bleach my hair a lot so that didn't help.
it really fucked me up for a while but eventually accepted it. i do miss my long coloured hair and it's a pain in the ass shaving my head so often. i wish there was a style i could pull off but nope the only one i can do is this:
(not me! it's Dougie from Derek tv show)

34 and I'm with you. My maternal grandfather died with a full head of hair and my maternal uncle is 70 with a full head. I'm hoping for the best!
Classic. Poor guy finding out like that. Definitely not the headphones either.
I had already shaved my head when I noticed my hair thinning, so I'm not sure when it happened. But I've always had a shaved head because fuck styling the hair every morning, fuck not being able to wear hats without ruining it, fuck the wind and rain messing it up in seconds, fuck constant haircuts. I remember getting annoyed and just shaving it all off one day and I've never gone back.

Same, and I should have had a head full of gray years ago, but I don't even have one yet.
Both sides of the family have full heads of hair.
I'm currently losing it all. I'm not happy about it.

My life was a facsimile of that Seinfeld episode...I started shaving my full head of hair during my early 20s...then I thought "fuck it, might as well let it grow out again", lo and behold...I couldn't because now I had started to bald. How is that fair?!
Minoxidil (liquid or cream) would probably help. There's also nizoral shampoo, which is anti-dandruff, but it also helps with hair loss supposedly. Thirdly there's finasteride. I'm not sure but it might require a prescription.
That dude looks like he still has a lot of hair, so minoxidil alone would probably do it. Sadly any new hair growth will fall out in a matter of months if you stop using it. But from what I've seen it can be quite effective!
