>>35504081
I'm 21 and already my hairline has receded almost to where my ears are, it's starting to thin on top leaving an island

Buzzed it a few weeks ago, great decision, i now don't spend the majority of my time in public worrying about whether my hair looks shit because now i know it looks fine, i've had loads of compliments too and luckily i have a skull shape which suits shorter hair

as soon as it gets too thin on top, i'm just gonna go jason statham style and keep it like that, i'm not in shape enough yet to be confident enough to pull off the shaved bald but i will be in probably 8 months or so


oh and btw i have gyno and i'm 5'8"
sometimes you don't win the lottery but i guess i'm thankful for my amazing beard genetics
>>
pretty stubbornly actually. combing it forward like a hitler youth but its starting to not be enough. can put my head in a fucking pony tail almost yet it doesnt even reach my fucking eye brows.

my fucking dad and brothers have hairlines like newborns and here i am with a fucking onion loaf. only good gene i got was 5'10 while theyre 5'5. christ

Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on 4chan by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is 4chan. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . .that is if you can handle it...

Went to a derm about my hairloss. I've got early signs of MBP, apparently. I can definitely see the hairline recession.

He gave me two options: Rogaine and Propecia. Apparently the only two options available.

I've read too many horror stories about Rogaine and hair just falling out and never growing back, or zero results. And Propecia kills your sex life.

I think it might just be better to watch my hair slowly fall out over the years and accept it.

I'm so, so, sorry in advance for what is about to happen. Trolls are going to come into the thread and they will be saying some very hurtful things about you. They will call you some very hurtful names. But none of those things are true. How could they possibly know? How could they possibly know how beautiful you really are? How sweet and compassionate you are? I'm so sorry about them, please do not let them hurt you.

I just want to see you shine and flourish. You are so precious to me. I want to write poetry and sing songs about my love and adoration for you and all of your perfections.

Stop being bitches, I have really thick hair to the point its hard to style while being black and indian(Poo in Landon), I had gray hair since I was 13 and my father went bald pretty early. Shave that bitch off and look like vin diesel were all going to make it. Or look for hair surgery.
>>
Been on finasteride for five years. I got in a bit late I didnt realise I had been balding since my early 20's and only caught it in my last 20's. But it has pretty much come to a complete stop now.
>>
Does anybody else notice how many guys are doing the shaved head + goate look? Steve Austin style. It's so generic, and it makes everyone look the same. I'm seriously hoping I don't lose my hair so I don't have to resort to it.
>>
>>35504729
and here a new journey begins
>>
>>35504311

Use the fin. It's the only way, desu. I was using nizoral and minox with no fin before. Now I use only fin and don't put shit in my hair.

I've been on fin for about 15 months now. No side effects with my peenor. And now I have thicker hair, and the best part is this -- I don't look in the mirror and worry anymore.
>>
>>35504081
Just shave it all off. It's the only answer.
>>
taking finestiride
but just hoped on test so yolo
rather be a jacked bald mofo than a dyel natty with hair
>>
>>35505407
Anybody have any idea what happens with Test + Fin?
>>
Finasteride reporting in.

Don't let the online reported side effects scare you, the chance for them are pretty small.
>>
Before I got on fin, I asked the doctor about sides. He said the thing that made the most sense ever:

If the sides were as bad as the horror stories online, they'd never be able to sell it.
>>
>>35505452
Derms have been selling accutane just fine, and the side effects are life threatening and have ruined many lives.
>>
Fatfuck trying like hell to cut as my hair is starting to thin out and soon I will have to at least buzz it...
>>
>>35504081
Finasteride, nizoral, minoxidil, biotin, and a hair transplant; but im stubborn.
>>
>>35504081

Shaved it off. Feels fresh and clean. I'd be lying if I say I wasn't jealous of those with a full head of hair but being bald(ing) has some benefits. Plus deal with it at young age, get over with it.

Buzzcut & a beard has worked out quite well for me. I held on for a few years too long. Should of bit the bullet sooner & just shaved my head.

>>35507139
>http://www.askapatient.com/viewrating.asp?drug=20834&name=ROGAINE+EXTRA+STRENGTH+%28FOR+MEN%29
All minox does is increase blood flow in the scalp, why would that be a side effect?

Im actually shocked, Ive been using for a few months but have had no side effects, maybe it's because I use a generic brand liquid? Maybe Ill stop and stick to nizoral
>>
>>35507219
There are people that have reported sudden loss of libido after using it for years with no sides, so yeah, I'd quit asap if I were you. I'm six months off it and I still haven't returned to normal. I'm not sure I ever will. I'm just glad I haven't been turned into a complete nullo like some of those guys in the first link.
>>
I didn't have any noticeable side effects from Rogaine. Just that it was a huge waste of money.
>>
>>35507256
Yet you'd think finasteride would have more of an effect on libido than rogaine?
>>
>>35507275
I dunno, breh. I didn't take fin. I'm not completely impotent, not by a long shot, but my balls are noticeably smaller and my cum is watery. I'm going to try and take alcar soon, apparently it improves androgen receptor density.
>>
>>35507275

first 2 months my libido was slightly lower, and now it's the highest that's ever been actually quite a numer of fin users report increased libido, I wonder why it works like that for some people

i asked the /fa/ggots about it with a pic but they said I was fine.

if you're balding and its noticeable (to you) just buzz it, there's no shame in it bros.

and don't have a friend tell you if it's noticeable or not, they will probably lie to not hurt your feelings.

Pattern baldness should let me off the hook, one day my son will be a dome though

But desu I feel like it's not a big deal. Guys like Nathan Barnatt are cool as fuck and probably get bitches on the regular, living a good life having experiences n shit

Thought I had a more recent photo of my hairline on this computer but apparently not. This is 28th September. I'll be 31 in a few months. Could be worse.

Recently started Minox around 3 weeks ago. Started the initial shed but it'll be months before I know if it's going to help me keep what I've got or better yet, grow some more.

>>35504587
wait the wiki says finasteride converts testerone into DHT.

off the top of my head, isn't that something that creatine does; makes your body create more dht? but creatinine side effect is thinning hair. wtf

No i think fin reduces to conversion so that u will have less dht

I'm following my dad and grandfather. My dad started receding at 18 and still has a NW2 at age 47, but the hair is see-through under a strong light. My granddad is 75 and combs the thin hair on top sideways and it looks okay considering it is completely white.

My maternal grandfather is 61 with a Nw1 hairline and a biggish bald spot that started when he 20. I have no thinning crown yet, but my hairline is about a NW1.5 at 22. It doesn't really bother me because both of my genetics indicate slow balding. As long as I keep my hair through my 30's I'll be okay.

started loosing my hair around my 15th.
From then on it was pretty much male pattern baldness setting in.
In the beginning I covered it up which gave me a lot of stress, wondering if it showed and I hated wind and rain.
Then at some point I bought clippers and buzz cut my hair.

It lifted a weight of my shoulders man. You never have to worry how your hair looks.

I do get the occasional comment about my baldness but that is mostly from men, never had complaints from woman,

I shave it down to 3mm. It's wonderful. I luckily have a good head shape so it looks fine. Women don't care. If anything I've had more attention since I buzzed it.

Besides even if it looked bad I'd still buzz it as a matter of convenience.
