Newbie Here and Needing Some Advice
Hey guys,
A little bit about myself. I'm 23 years old and have some questions, as I'm seeking some advice about the state of my hair before I start looking into dermatologists in my area. Lately (past month or so) I've been feeling like my hair has less weight than it used to, feels frizzier, less resistance when I run a brush through it.
I know a lot of factors can weigh in to how your hair feels, like the way my barber cut it (he did use a razor to layer it at my last haircut), shampoo, etc, but I want to get some thoughts on MPB and me.
Some family history: my uncle on my moms side went totally bald in his late 20s/early 30s, other uncle had thinning hair throughout his life, maternal grandfather had a full head (of thin) hair until he got cancer and passed away from it.Dad had a full head of hair at 60 and so does his brother. Paternal grandfather had a full head of hair til the day he died.
Anyways, let me know what you all think.
Thanks guys, nice to find a place where I can feel peaceful and chat about this.
Jack

Thanks for your input Rashid. Would you say I'm somewhere on the Norwood scale? Or even experiencing mpb at all? Some days I wonder if it's all in my head. I know it's tough to say.

Thanks for taking a look Rashid. You mentioned pre-preemptive measures. I'm in the process of looking for a derm in my area now, but what might some of those measures be? I know the big 3 are finasteride, minox, and nizoral shampoo but aside from that I have pretty limited knowledge.
