  • @ryptoll4801
    @ryptoll4801 Před 4 lety +18

    Thank you for a great video. You're reading my mind! I've been obsessing about my thinning hair for these past few days and just thought I should look into if I could possibly embrace it at some point. Like you, I also enjoy being able to have long hair, even though I've also been fine with going shaved in the past. I'm 31 and as far as I can tell, my hairline is at the "level 3" as the temples have receded by about 2 inches from how they were in my teens, which is a big difference, but they don't seem to recede further than that. So my hairline is just very mature, I suppose. And the front of it has not moved at all.
    As for the rest of my hair... it's thinned out a lot from how it used to be and breaking off very easily. I can see on pics from a few years ago that it was a lot thicker on top. But currently it's still just about thick enough to have long hair in a side-parting without it looking bad. With a middle-parting I can see my scalp shining through a lot, which looks bad, so I avoid that style. It's not technically an "over-comb" but almost, lol. To my defense, it actually looked worse in a short haircut.
    I really don't wanna lose my hair, but it's starting to slowly sink in that it's just going to happen. I think my plan is gonna be to try medicine to hopefully prevent it from getting worse, and if that doesn't work, then I'll embrace the bald look, I guess. I just don't wanna quit my hair without a fight first.

  • @mattbortz10
    @mattbortz10 Před rokem +14

    I'm 34 and had such great hair growing up, thick and curly. In past 5 years in particular, I lost a lot of hair due to male pattern baldness, or genes. I was so afraid of buzzing or shaving my head, after I did it, it was such a relief. Not a big deal, if you're afraid to do it, just do it and see how it looks!

    @FrankKrings Před 3 lety +7

    Hi Greg, it might be interesting to read something from someone who has had male pattern baldness since the age of 16. I thought it was awful and since then I had shaved my hair very short to a total bald head. Thank god I have a strong beard. And I focus on the beard. When it comes to hair, there's nothing more to be done. :) So I'm still a fan of your beard tips.

    To be honest I'm happy to have what remaining hair is left on my head, theres still enough thatch to style doesn't look to thin so very grateful for that, I'm 41 now and all the men bar 1 in my family were completely bald by 25 including my 2 brothers, only one to keep his hair was my grandad, dads dad who my dad always said I look like and have the same hair line.
    I do find when I'm really stressed I go thiner on top, I noticed this when I lost my mum and dad to cancer a couple years ago, I looked pretty bald on top and thought that I was actually following the male pattern baldness in my family but couple years later my hair has filled again.

When I had long hair (like you have) my forehead was more exposed due to hair loss. After 10-12 years of long hair I simply cut them (after watching many beardbrand videos I made the decision to change my look) then the hair I lost over time grew back!

    Greg, I'm mad at you for worrying and wishing you had a "better" hairline. You don't know what it's like to be in the process of losing your hair and see someone way older than you with a full head of hair.
    If you got this far with a full head of hair, you probably won't lose any more hair.
    So do me a favour and enjoy what you got, because you got A LOT of it.

    Growing my hair out long seemed to make my the hair at the top of my widows peak to pull and get pulled out. It looks like it’s growing back but it freaked me out. I got the classic Dracula thing going on. I’m 33 and my dad never went bald. But his dad was bald at 16. I’m one of those guys who are neurotic about going bald. Props to all the guys out there that go bald and rock it.

    My hairline is pretty strong with the exception of my very front part in the middle. I feels like it has thin out more than I like it to be, and I cant un-see it now every time I look at myself in the mirror. This is the only place where I feel my hair has some weakness... very front/middle part.... maybe it just me. After looking at yours I feel so much better, maybe it is all part of a mature hairline :) thanks. I am 42 and my hair is just about as long as yours. thanks for all the info and knowledge.

    Great video dude! At the start of the year my hairline was at 3v, noticeably receding and thinning of the crown, typical MPB. I’ve been taking Minoxidil and Finasteride since Feb and the results have been insane! My hair follicles are thicker in the crown, that I actually have my crown back! My hairline has also become thicker and in some cases, some hair has grown back to where it was a good few years ago! Super happy with the results and happy to discuss my journey with anyone in the same boat :)

    You’re telling me if you began to lose your hair you would embrace it? I find it hard to believe. Imagine if you woke up tomorrow and were a Norwood 5. You’d most definitely try minoxidil or finasteride if not a hair transplant. I respect that you tell guys to embrace it but also wished you would let them know about other options of what they could do to fight it instead of going the virtuous route. Cmon Greg, we both know how much you care about appearance so it’s quite evident to assume you would try minox, finasteride and other treatments if you went past a Norwood 3. Nonetheless great video.

I disagree with this based on seeing how much you care about your appearance. I think it’s disingenuous that you told people to embrace what they have when you wouldn’t yourself. I mean cmon you had perfect teeth prior and still got porcelain veneers. Plus your modeling has hair as one of its biggest factors. I just truly wished you talked about solutions that could treat the problem instead of telling people to do nothing. That’s my main criticism.

      @@tallbeachyblonde5862 I don't think hair should thin out during puberty as it matures but your hair was probably always like that, how old are you and what's your hair type? It can also just appear thin if you have a certain hairstyle, for example if you have your hair cut short and if it's directed upwards your scalp might be a bit more visible in the crown area giving it an illusion that it's thinning, also genetic hair loss is a bit complicated and you can't tell exactly tell whether or not you're gonna go bald just by looking at the hair of people from your close family, sure you can get a rough idea of what you can expect by looking at the hairlines of other's in your family but for example i have a grandfather from my father's side of the family who was bald for generations, so my grandfather's dad was almost completely bald and only his sides remained while his mother's father was also bald and yet my grandfather who is now 71 still retained a decent amount of hair even though both sides of his family had a bald guy each, all in all if you're concerned about your hair just consult a dermatologist and he'll figure it out for you

      When I was in my 20s, my stash & chin were ok, but cheeks not so good & under-beard poor. So no big beard. I tried & it looked bad so I wore a short beard. Then it really started to go grey around 30 so I shaved it off. Grew a short beard at 50 when it & my head hair were all white (bad genetics). About 2 years ago I saw a Greg B. video explaining he couldn’t grow a full beard until he was 50. I’m way older than that so I thought I’d give it a go. It came in pretty strong (lots of Santa Claus jokes). Now I wish I had grown it out years ago. I knew all my hair changed color & I was painfully aware of the “mature hair line” deal (I learned I’m a 2 or 2A from this video), but I never figured out that unlike head hair, beards can improve with age. Don’t give up. Cheers, Stefan K.

    Nice vid's Greg, seen several of yours in the past. At the end of this where you show your hairline- it doesn't look to me like you really have much of any real receding hairline, perhaps slightly compared to when you were in your 20's maybe, but you still have a complete, full head of hair. But even so, I do like your idea of doing a buzz/brush cut still. It would probably look awesome on you, either with the full beard or a short beard. At 40 my hairline is easily about half-way to Jude Law's receding hairline (before he got hair transplants). I often buzz it all to about 1 cm with clippers. I find that a receding hairline is actually altogether nicer than a 'juvenile' men's hairline. It gives a much more distinguished/mature look, even for someone like me who could easily pass for early 20's facially.

It got so bad that every time I ran my fingers through my hair I would come away with a clump of hair. Taking showers was a nightmare, seeing all the hair coming out. Now it seems to have slowed down considerably. Maybe it's a break in the loss or maybe this is where it will stay. I still have a full head of hair, so I am thankful for that.

I look at my father, I always looked at him as having full hair, but I noticed his frontal hairline moved back like 1-2cm from when he was young. Now hearing this gave me confidence, I might not turn bald actually. I might just develope a mature hairline.

      Did you just go ahead and shave it all? I'm 21 and I have an horrible hair line/thinning now at the front!

      Why do us men lose hair on our head but have hair everywhere. I have chest, back ,bum,hair. I have hair everywhere and I’m bald?

      @@ryanryessir just shave it off dude! Thinning hair or a receding hairline are just the worst looks ever. It's either you have a decent hairline and a decent amount of hair on your head, or nothing, no other choice. I advise you to watch Bald Cafe channel ...

    Mine is going back on the temples a bit which is one thing but in the middle its thinning out quite a bit and its noticeable and I hate that. Also starting to get thin in the crown too. Im still in the area where I dont have to shave it all off but I consider it all the time.

    21 here, noticing some regular thinning and maybe a slight maturing hairline but it's still pretty good. I've always had a somewhat big forehead or normal I guess idk. I can't really grow a beard yet I only really get neck hair and some hair on the burns, if I were to start balding or my hairline just went way tf up like a level 3 I'd be pissed since I can't even at least have a beard to show for it lmao. I'd want to rock a Jason Statham look for sure if I was going bald... My Dad was in his 50's when he passed and he died with a pretty good head of hair, I remember it just looked thinned out but nothing insanely high. Fingers crossed mannnnn
