Well bros: the Norwood reaper has come to collect...

Been growing my hair for a change of style. In doing this, I've discovered signs of Norwood 2 or 2.5. Has my time come or is there anything I can do?

I am a Chadrone hybrid with no gay alien skull so a complete buzzcut isnt a death sentance, however it is a last resort.

What do misc - I want a lucious mane but dont want to take pills with dubious side effects.

How soon can i do hair transplant?

Depends, if it’s just recession but no thinning I think you’ll be okay.

Diffuse thinning + recession (what I have) is the worst

No thinning yet. Been on a stack of biotin and applying black castor oil at night. Seems to have held the reaper at bay for now, but i need a solution misc. I cant let the reaper do me like this.

you'll accentuate it with a side part or slicked back so avoid this

just go for a (asymmetrical) middle part and you're fine

If you don't wanna risk sides there isn't too much you can do. Once you've lost all your gonna lose you could get a hair transplant but I'd wait as long as I could since it'll look even worse if you lose hair behind the transplant. If you have a good looking head just shave it

I'm still fairly certain most HT docs want their patients on either fin or duta after

My hair is curly, but im still around 9 months away from my desired length. Of i get it long enough i can hide evidence of the reapers cruel work for at least a half decade, maybe longer. But I dont know how long ive been receeding for since ive always had short hair. Could the reaper send me to Norwood 4 in a matter of months or is it a long painful process?

The men in my family, both sides have full heads of hair, so why me?

They do because your non transplanted hair could continue to be lost. That's why I suggested he wait until after the reaper gets done collecting to get the transplant

Thanks brah, i guess years of miscing can really send you down a dark path. I still hope the reaper has collected all he needs however and spares the rest of my hair.

Just keep an eye on it.

Even as someone who had bad sides from fin, I stopped and start multiple times and sides always went away.

I’d say it’s worth a try atleast and if you get sides just go off it.

If you were happy with keeping it short before trying to grow it out why not cut it short again?
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

I have had my hair short for so long i wanted a change. If the reaper stays his sythe for a few months, my lushious curls will be able to hide his cruel work and let me live a happier man.

I will shave it short if i have too, but i am set on growing it, and its only through growing it that i have managed to uncover the reapers scheme.
