Another young hair patient by Dr. Lindsey

[pajason]

You need to do your research and fast because a Norwood 2 is not balding. Look around you! No adult male has a Norwood 1. It's a mature hairline which almost every male transitions to during their 20's. Right now you're being too optimistic and greedy wanting a young youthful hairline and you will regret it if you continue to follow this path. you need to get over the fact that with the current treatments available in today's society.. Norwood 1 isn't an option. You're young and experiencing hair loss, no one knows how far your loss is going to progress.. only time and genetics can tell this so wanting a Norwood 1 is going to ruin your appearance in the future and your precious donor hair that is going to be needed elsewhere on your head.

Correct you don't know if your going to be a Norwood 4, where a 18 year old hairline might be possible, or a Norwood 6 where it's highly likely that no matter your budget you won't have enough donor. You will look like a freak because you will be really thin with a abnormally low hairline. Get on propecia and see where you are in a few years. Having had several hair transplants at a young age I can tell you as you get older you won't likely feel the way you do now. I really wish I wouldn't have done anything. Dr Lindsey is giving you honest advice.
