    Default I always thought it wouldnt happen

    I always thought it was strictly dependent on the mothers' side, and all the men on my mothers side had full heads of hear till they died. My fathers side, eh, not so much.


    Anyway I was wondering if you'd be kind enough to answer my question

    Is it normal for your hair to thin everywhere? Sides of head, eyebrows, arms legs? Even the digits on my hands, I used to shave them but now the hairs arent even visible

    Damn, I would say no it isn't normal. This is actually the first time I have heard of such a thing. I wish the only hair I lost was body hair. Nobody sports a bush anymore...Do they?

    yeah, I used to be self conscious about my finger hairs, and actually, even my eyebrows. Had really bushy eyebrows and actually had to fix em up a little bit to give them a more definitive shape. Keywords for both of those is "used to"

    Cant even see any hair on my fingers and while it wasnt really bad to begin with, the hairs on my hands are much less visible and there are quite a few visible follices with nothing growing

    Thanks though, I wasnt sure if this was just something that happened when you start to get older or what

    There is a condition called alopecia Universalis which is when a person has hair loss from all areas of the body including the scalp. It is a somewhat rare condition. You may want to visit a dermatologist to evaluate your situation.
