How did you cope with hair loss?

I don't have to because the moment I realized what's happening I started taking a 5-AR inhibitor.

Now I enjoy everyone else's hairline get worse while mine remains the same in my 40s as it was in my early 20s.

I'm 33 and norwooding pretty hard except I don't think I'll go full bald because nobody in my family has. I'm norwood 3. Zero hair loss anywhere else. Both grandfathers had norwood level 3 when they were like 80, but otherwise a thick set of hair.

Is my only option to get a transplant? I have very youthful skin so it's the only thing that gives away my true age.

Embrace it is the only answer. Everything else is tranny tier coping.

>How did you cope with hair loss?
i'm happily married, got kids and reached my career goals
why would I care about hair?
>>
>>76821957
Thinning, widow's peak and getting bald spots were really bad, because I just constantly tried to hide it. Once I finally buzzed it off I didn't give a shit anymore. Obviously, it makes me less attractive, but so did having bad hair. It's one less thing to worry about and that's why I also don't want a transplant or a hair system. I don't rule it out completely, it's just very low priority. I'll admit, at the time when I was losing some hair I had a very youthful appearance and I actually liked looking more mature, so I didn't do much about it. I eventually used Minoxidil for a year when the crown also started thinning, but it didn't do anything. Then I just embraced it.

i grew so selfish in my years that i kinda stopped caring about my appearance. Last time i had a gf we tried living together and in that moment i realized, wow i really can't share my life or home with anyone else. I'm selfish. Then it's been years and in those years i started thinking that since i hated being in a relationship, what was the point of looking good for others? Im way too selfish to care.

For those reading be aware this is not me boosting, it's a warning.

I EMBRACED it.
Now, anon, how about we tinker around my car, huh?
>>
if your hairline is receding keep it short, if you're bald at the crown shave it off (ideally while being lean and clean shaven or with just a short beard)

I'm similar and I'm just not very social in general. There's only a very limited time I can spend with people, even the ones I love, before my social battery is drained. I maintain really good relationships and friendships, but I only see those people or talk to them like once or twice a week at most. If I had to spend more time with them I'd push them away. For me, that realization also came after I moved in with my last girlfriend. I loved her, and we didn't really have any relationship issues when we were living together, but I've never been more depressed. Kinda distanced myself, she evenutally broke up with me, and I felt a huge relief.

I'm letting mine grow even though my sister etc told me it's time to shave it.
The top can grown out bit more which will add volume and cover some of the thinner parts on top.
I also read online that having hair existing in an area will promote hair growth in follicles nearby existing hairs by promoting blood flow and nutrition to that area.
The thinning is hard to notice but one time I saw the back of my head on a cctv display at work and noticed it but that might have just been due to a reflection or bad camera quality.

Kek I've taken photos with people who thought I looked like the doppelganger of a famous bald person. I also regularly get called Johnny Sins, I think it's pretty cool.

It's probably been years since it was time to shave it

finasteride+minoxidil
gonna keep it up for as long as those two work and then rope if I ever start balding again
>>
>>76821957
Mine is quite bad around the crown. However I think a big issue in this is that my hair becomes more curly, clumped and greasy throughout the day which exacerbates the issue. When I shower and dry it's not that bad.
>>
I was already thinning 12th grade year, full M by like 22 and crown showing. I never had a chance.

I still remember the humiliation when I unwrapped my christmas presents when I was 18 and they were full of anti-hairloss products.

Those neatly trimmed beards, regardless of haircut (or lack thereof), are the gayest fucking thing ever. And I watch bisexual porn.

>>76821998
this anon is correct, if you're upset enough about it to take fin or w/e then you might as well go on estrogen
either you want the effects of T or you don't

Finasteride stopped it
Minoxidil helped me grow the hair at the top back

Norwood 2 at 24, hairline seems to be the same as years ago when I noticed i looked like vegeta if I pull my hair back, either it hasn't moved or it did but slowly to the point I don't see difference
I know it's coming for me, he's just hovering above my hair

Looks fine on cartoons but in reality the hair you have left is thin and sparse. With a full head of thick hair even a buzzcut looks good.
>>
Imagine caring about this shit
And you spend all this time fretting, or what gay little hair style can I do to hide this inevitably?!? Oh what shampoo is the best or even medication?? Oh I better slick all my hair back each day and put gel in there to make sure my bald spot isn't on show!!

And then you fucking die, bro. Stop wasting your time, or don't, I don't give a shit!
>>
>>76821957
Dont have to, I get laid far more with my horseshoe than I ever did with a full head. Obviously we arent talking huge numbers and there are a bunch of other lifestyle factors involved, but the big fear around hairloss is that you wont be able to pull women anymore and I still do so its all fine.
