I know there are many questions on this, and believe me I have looked through them. But need first hand advice. I am 22. and I cannot seem to get an answer I need about going bald. As far as I know I am not going bald, but I have been concerned about it for about a year or so. It always seems to be on my mind these days. Like I get paranoid if i run my hands through my hair and i see hairs in my hand? Is this normal? I also see hairs on my pillow. I know you shed 100 hairs a day, so I just put that down to this. I just don;t seem to understand how baldness works or whether I can determine if it is happening to me. My dad is bald, but he has significantly less hair than his dad! My mums dad had a full head of hair when he died, but his son’s are experiencing hair loss quite a lot. So how does that work? Does that mean that hairloss skips a generation? Ive read that hair loss is governed by an over-abundance of DHT hormone? or something like that. One thing i would like to also add, is that I cannot grow much facial hair. Or rather I only need to shave once a week usually. I cannot grow a beard, yet my dad can… I am not worried about going bald, if it happens it happens. Just I want some clarity. I want to know if it will happen or not. I seem to be thinking about it too much.
