Hair Loss InformationAre More Young People Losing Hair Now Compared to In Past Years? – Hair Loss Information – Balding Blog

In your experience, in the past few years have you noticed a higher percentage of young people (15-20 years old) losing their hair compared to years past?

There’s a couple ways to look at this —

1. The shaved head look is quite common, possibly more so than in the past, so it’s difficult to tell who is doing it because they’re balding or who is doing it for style.
2. The internet has changed the lives of many people, especially with regard to education. Balding impacts many millions of young men and women, and they can get educated and become more proactive because of what they learn about hair loss and treatment options. So if anything, I’d expect less young people would be losing hair compared to years past.

However, the answer to your question is that there is no more balding today than in the past.
