What can cause very rapid thinning and receding hair other than genetics? Is this unusual for my age?
Welcome to the Chrome Dome club. I lost most of my hair in my 20s. I’m 35 now, also blonde, and for the past 10 years it’s been pretty stable but the receding hairline has crept back slowly. The nice thing about being blonde is you can shave your head every 3-5 days or so and no one will even see where your hair is growing back in, so you don’t get that dark-haired neo-Nazi thug look that a lot of dark-haired guys get after they shave their heads — and then have to shave every day to keep it shiny and Mr. Clean-like.
