New here, and pls. rate my NW

[Artista]

JDuff ,,you are NOT, and Ill repeat, NOT a Norwood 5-6.
25' said- "It is obviously NOT a NW 5-6..."

'Duff get a hold of yourself-take a breather , you have plenty of hair ..It is thinning but it is not at a point in which you should be panicking.
I WISH i had the hair that you have my friend.

WHY in the world did 'BaldyBald' tell 'Duff it looked like a NW 5-6 ????

[8868alex]

I agree with Arista and Chris - don't panic!

Clearly some thinning is evident, but you are certainly not beyond help. If medication is something you would consider then you may even see some substantial regrowth. The fact that the thinning is fairly recent also bodes well as there is scope to rejuvenate weakened follicles.

Let us know how you get on!

[dex89]

to me it looks NW 5-6
see a dermatologist so he can put you in a medication asap

You must be blind.


OP, your taking the right steps, don't panic and stick threw your regime.

[drybone]

Dude I would say you are a norwood three but have diffuse thinning.

Its ok. You aint going bald. Just relax.

But you do need to listen to the others on here and go to a specialist to see about your options.

I would see about medication to keep the hair you have and also a surgeon to see how many grafts you will eventually need to rebuild your hairline.

You are going to be ok. You can fix your hair and you will look good.

bro ur like a NW2 with some thinning, there is still hope for u!

[baldybald]

no listen, i did not mean you are NW 5-6 right now !!!
it is my opinion that you will end up NW5-6. if you look at the last picture i can see thinning everywhere that taking shape to be NW 6. but right now you are 2-3
with medication the NW will delay.
sorry of not making it clear

As above, breathe!!! Trust me there's nothing worse then panicking and having that gut feeling (I know), your hair looks pretty good, Im sure a trip to a GP and some meds would easily halt/reverse what you have.

[john2399]

your a nw2 with thinning

Well, you apparently sent him to the hospital for not writing carefully and reviewing what you typed.

i know, my bad

[rdawg]

Hopefully that guys alright lmao. Dont mean to laugh but he really freaked out!

anyway OP, you're a NW2(pretty early one too) with some thinning. Minoxidil would do you very well as most of your hairloss is on top. Consider fin if it continues to progress fast.

[lalala]

Lol. Why would you freak out just because some guy here said you're a NW 6-7? You can see for yourself in the mirror what you are. Your hair is not that bad. Like others have said, you're a 2.5-3 with some thinning. I bet when you grow your hair out you probably don't even look like you're thinning. That's how my hair is.

Fin and Rogaine will likely help you. It's good that you are a little older. Hopefully that means your loss will be slow and controlled with meds.

So BREATHE and just relax. Everything is going to be okay.

[Chief Ohio]

No need to freak out! Your sorting a norwood 2 at worst, maybe some slight thinning but really dosent look too bad! Please don't panic and rush on fin or rogaine without giving it some serious thought, both will require you to keep using them forever & both carry side effects you should be educated on

[britissh]

I'm not expert but I see receding temples and miniaturization all over top.I'd call it Nw 2 with the signs of Nw4 but I dont think it'll evolve to NW 4 -5 soon

[ScottishDan]

How long have you been on rogaine etc for?
