    Default Shorter hairs in the drain

    Hi friends!; just a simple question, is it normal to find some shorter hairs on the drain even if you have long hair, like a 20% of all the hairs in the drain, or is this a MPB Sentence...

    Hard to say. It could be part of the normal shedding cycle or male pattern balding. How old are you, do you have a family history of MPB, and are you noticing any thinning appearance?

    Your best bet would be to try and visit the closest reputable hair restoration physician so they can evaluate your situation, offer treatment options, and closely monitor the progression of your hair loss.

    They could be hairs which are due to be lost. Hairs tend to last longer in the growth part of the hair life cycle before they are completely lost.
