About Young Hair Loss

My hair started thinning when I was 19 years old. I was confused. I was pissed off. No one in my family is bald. And even if they were, why the hell was I losing my hair at 19?!

I tried washing my hair with different shampoos. I tried not washing my hair. I changed my diet. I tried exercising more. I tried exercising less. Nothing worked.

Then I tried hair loss remedies and treatments like Saw Palmetto and Propecia. Both caused serious side effects for me.

For a long time I just tried to cover it up. I combed my hair a certain way and used special shampoos to give it volume.

This worked for a period of time. But it became harder and harder to maintain. I had to get frequent hair cuts, and each day I spent time adjusting my hair in a mirror to make it look (as much as possible) as if my hair wasn’t thinning.

At this point I was overcome with anxiety. I found myself thinking about my hair even when I wasn’t looking in the mirror. It started to erode my self-confidence, especially around women.

Thankfully, I am no longer living my life like that.

This blog is about my journey from stress and anxiety to self-confidence and happiness. It started with my decision to buzz off my remaining hair. It continued with a number of steps I took to get over my fears and accept myself as a person. I hope you join me on this journey, and I hope that if you are struggling with hair loss yourself, I can help you realize that you can be happy, you can meet women, and you can live a fulfilling life regardless of how much hair is on your head.
