Based on pull tests, has my hair loss stopped?
I really suck at judging these things; I'm super paranoid and have no idea what is normal. My pull tests have been pretty consistent lately. I usually get zero hairs and about 1/4-5 tests will yield one hair. Is this good? It certainly seems to be an improvement over my old tests when I first started fin and was pulling out 4-5 hairs pretty routinely.
There is no way that I am losing more than 50-70 hairs per day, if it's even any where near that. I barely ever notice hairs in the shower. Typically, I lose a few when I'm applying minox, blow-drying, and styling though.

Sounds like you are on your way to NW7 bro, just deal with it. Shave it all off.

Patiently, brah, I know I am rediculous but I have no frame of reference. I didn't establish a good baseline of pictures and tests. Consequently, I have no idea if what I am experiencing is normal. My hair is all that I have. I cannot lose any more.

Yeah, if you yank on it. Pull tests are pretty valid in determining how strong your shedding is.

Same boat as you, I reckon I lose 30 hairs a day at most now. Just waiting for it all to thicken back up.

Gah, the wait is killing me. My density is shit compared to how it was a year ago.

Counting hairs will drive you crazy -- well, it's driving me crazy anyways.
The days I can get myself to not count hairs and incessantly think about my hair are days I enjoy myself; I wish I could have them more often.

I know your feels, brah. Drives me insane. That's why I made this thread. If I can determine that my hair loss has stopped, I think I would be better equipped to stop worrying about it so much.
