Regular Member RickieL89 Posted July 16, 2020 Regular Member Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) I'm a 31 year old Asian with thick coarse strands of hair. Sometimes in the shower I would count 20 - 30 strands of hair. Today I counter 21 and some were short less then an inch and some were thin too and some were normal length. I was wondering is shedding some short hair less then an inch and some thin hair normal or does it mean you're 100% balding? Do all the strands on your head that you shed have to be the same thickness to not be considered balding? I posted an imgur of the strands of hair I'm talking about. I posted an imgur of the strands of hair I'm talking about below. I saw a hair restoration doctor in 2018, sent pictures to a hair clinic in 2018 and 2019 and saw a dermatologist in April of 2019 and they all said my hair looks fine. I'm still wondering about the thin and sometimes short strands of hair I sometimes find after showering or randomly on the floor or table. Pictures of my strands of hair that I shed and that I'm talking about. https://imgur.com/a/cHqXPkA Here are some pictures of what my hair looks like now. The first two pictures in the album is actually a video. https://imgur.com/a/v7i2msx April 2019 - July 2020 Hair Image Record https://imgur.com/a/RshkuKL Edited July 16, 2020 by RickieL89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted July 16, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hair shedding is normal, summer months is when hairs shed more often. You’re not balding. I would kill to have your hair. My advice is stay away from the forums and concentrate on something else or a hobby. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network.

Yeah I understanding shedding is normal, but should I be worried about shedding those thing strands of hair like in this picture https://imgur.com/a/cHqXPkA that seem weak and wispy? I would shed 20 strands of hair in the shower and about 5 - 8 of them would be a mix of the short and thin wispy strands like in the imgur link. The majority would be the normal thickness.
