    Default Am I Balding?!? Please help!

    Hi everyone, so a little over a year ago I noticed my hair beginning to thin above my temples after receiving a haircut (undercut) as well as my hair breaking and ripping more frequently than it used to. This began to spark fear that I might be losing my hair. Since then, I have not gotten a haircut out of fear of what it might look like. At my current length, it appears not only that it might be thinning above the temples, but at the crown as well. I’m not sure if this is because of the length just weighing it down awkwardly near the crown or not, or if I’m actually experiencing baldness. I’m currently 24 years old, with only one uncle on my dad’s side with any symptoms of major hair loss. My dad currently has a full head of hair at 61. My mom’s side shows no symptoms of hair loss and her father has only partially grayed at over 70 years old. This whole ordeal has left me extremely stressed and self conscious to the point where some days I can’t even will myself to go out in public without a hat on unless I’m at work. I’m seeing a dermatologist later this month, but I would really appreciate any comments, knowledge or feedback. Attached are some recent pictures at my current length (keep in mind that these pictures for the most part are hiding everything as best as possible) as well as some pictures from around two years ago. I also apologize if the picture quality degraded from being uploaded and attached from mobile. Thank you!
