Why do you expect a 26-year-old to be bald?
- NikolaNovak 3y agoSome are? :) I started balding early 20s but some of my friends in late teens.
- krylon 3y agoI've met a few people who had a clearly visible bald spot at that age (including my father, fortunately I got my hair from my mother). Not many, but it happens.
- voxadam 3y agoIn his memoir, Making It So, Patrick Stewart (Jean-Luc Picard, Professor X, etc.) said that he was noticeably balding at 17 and was more or less completely bald by 19. Stewart may be an extreme case but a sizeable population of men lose a substantial amount of their hair before 26.
- Suppafly 3y agoyeah it's kinda weird that we associate baldness with age, most of the people that get it genetically seem to start balding at a young age. I have a friend that started losing it in his teens and had lost enough to constantly wear hats by college.
