Alright so I'm fairly young (under 30) and I'm worried that I might be becoming bald.

There's no history of male baldness in my family though(grand parents, parents or uncles and so on), so its pretty crazy :(

I went to get a very short haircut a couple days ago and when I came back home and looked at myself in the mirror I noticed this:

I am going bald!?

You can put aloe vera gel on there. It worked for my father's thinning hair.

Looks like it could be. On the other hand it could be nothing, I doubt that part of your head is something you look at often enough to know it wasn't like that already. If you're worried maybe see a doctor as if it is hair loss it may be for some preventable reason rather than male pattern baldness

As long as you maintain even and luxuriant growth around the perimeter of your pate, short people will be none the wiser. Unless you, yourself, are a very short person.

If you notice hair loss then you're sick

if not then it's just because your hair is short/thin. :P

use Rogaine or some equivalent for the rest of your life.

Or get used to the idea of being bald - like me - and get ready to shave your head really realy short.

I'll take the latter... Rogaine is very sitautionally effective, and only with male pattern baldness. I'd rather lose some hair than soak up Rogaine every day... it's not like being a leper, it's part of life for a LOT of men.

Mine started dropping out at 23. Bothers others, but not myself. Most guys just go shave-head early these days.

I was going bald (26 years old), you could see my scalp and had bad receding hair line. The sides were still thick though. Now that I'm in chemo I'm completly bald, so be happy wit whatever hair you have.

Yeah just buff up in the gym and shave it off so you become a sexy bald dude. You have to be careful how you dress so you avoid looking like a neo-nazi, a fashion designer or a bear (unless you are one of those three things then it's cool)

A little thin, but far from bald... mine like that for years now, doesn't get worse. hopefully as far as it goes. I think I wore hats and beancaps too much back then. just careful don't let it any worse, only if you can't help it.

Could it be stress, I mean I do not know for certain so you would have to look it up but could be possible if you are under stress that may be having a effect on you and causing your hair to thin out. even if your going a little bald still not cause to panic yet as now adays there are plenty of treatments to help thicken your hair.

I'm nearly 40 and lucky enough to only just started going a little grey, but not enough for it to be noticible.

I'm going bald too. The way I look at it, I save money on haircuts and shampoo. In this economic climate, I'm thinking of actually shaving my head and staying bald before nature kicks in and does it to me first.
