Male Hair Loss – Everything You Need to Know

There are several conditions that can cause hair loss in men, but the most common one is Male Pattern Baldness (MPB). This condition is also known as androgenetic alopecia or genetic hair loss. This page will focus primarily on MPB but will also address other less common hair loss issues that could be affecting you, with links to more detailed pages.

Male Pattern Baldness – What is it?

Male Pattern Baldness is a genetic condition that can be inherited from either side of the family. So even if your father has a full head of thick hair, don't assume you're completely safe (though you might be!). It’s caused by a byproduct of testosterone called Dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT attaches to hair follicles and gradually causes them to shrink, making the hair thinner and thinner until, in some cases, men become completely bald on top of their heads.

How Can I Tell If I’m Losing My Hair?

This is a great question, and while the answer may seem obvious, many men don’t realize they are losing hair until it’s too advanced, which could be too late to fully recover. The reason for this delay is often denial or the slow progression of hair loss, which can go unnoticed. On the other hand, some men worry about hair loss unnecessarily.

The best ways to know if you are losing your hair are...

- Noticing thinning hair or a receding hairline yourself

- Being informed by others that you are losing hair (which you may not notice yourself)

- Finding excessive hair on your pillow, in the shower, or on your hands after styling your hair in the morning

How to Identify Male Pattern Baldness?

MPB is quite easy to identify, even for someone with no medical experience, as it primarily affects the top of the scalp and not the sides, creating a horseshoe-shaped pattern of hair loss.

There are several common hair loss patterns: a receding hairline, thinning crown, or overall thinning across the top of the head. MPB does not affect the sides or back of the scalp.

Treating Male Pattern Baldness

At Joseph Hair Care Center, we’ve spent decades perfecting the Microdote® technique. It’s the result of years of clinical expertise and hands-on experience in restoring hair naturally. This technique uses authentic human hair, hand-picked and matched to your own, to give you a completely natural look and feel. The application is done without surgery, adhesives, heat, or harmful chemicals, so your natural hair remains safe and untouched.

Whether you're dealing with genetic hair loss, medical conditions like alopecia, or simply want a fuller and more youthful appearance, Microdote® adapts to your unique needs. From adding volume and length to creating highlights and lowlights, this technique offers endless styling possibilities—all while looking 100% natural, even under close inspection

Will I Go Bald If I Don’t Seek Treatment?

This depends on several factors. If your hair loss is due to a temporary condition (which is rare in men), the answer may be no. If it’s Male Pattern Baldness, the extent of hair loss will vary. Some men may lose their hair early or aggressively, possibly becoming bald in their twenties, while others may start noticing thinning in their late twenties or later, with some retaining thin hair into old age.

Seeking the right treatment can at least halt your hair loss and often promote some degree of regrowth or thickening.

When is the best time to seek a solution for my hair loss?

The simple answer to this is as early as possible. We advise that as soon as you begin to notice increased amounts of hair shedding, you should seek advice from a specialist. Male Pattern Hair Loss is a chronic condition that will progress if no action is taken. The more hair that is lost, the less chance your hair will have of making a full recovery, which is why Joseph Hair Care specialists always advise using a course of treatment before the condition progresses.

Is treatment likely to grow all my hair back?

According to clinical data, some men will experience significant levels of regrowth and some more moderate levels of regrowth. A percentage of users will experience stabilisation and a small number will not notice significant results.

To get a good idea of the results that people can achieve, you can view our extensive photo-gallery of hair growth success stories (the largest of its kind in the world). Keep in mind that any level of response to treatment should be seen as a success, even hair loss stabilisation without any increase in density, as it is likely that without treatment the hair would have continued to shed at a much faster rate.

Patterns of Hair Loss

There are three general patterns of Male Pattern Hair Loss – we are quite confident that one of these will bear a similarity to your own pattern. Below you will find a summary of each whilst you can also click into our photo-gallery of hair regrowth-photos and success stories, for that specific pattern of hair loss only.

Receding Hairline

One of the most common patterns of hair loss is a receding hairline , also known as a ‘widow’s peak’. This is where the hair is lost at either side of the forehead, usually leaving a triangular peak in the middle. For some men this might be the only area of hair loss, but others may also experience thinning at the crown. For those with more aggressive forms of MPB the hairline will recede further and further until it either meets the crown (which might also be balding), or results in a large bald area at the top or front of the head.

Thinning Crown or Vertex

Some men will experience thinning at the back or top of the head – called the ‘crown’ or ‘vertex’. Again this can coincide with a receding hairline, but sometimes men will only have one of the two. Hair loss at the crown will usually start off with thinning until the scalp becomes visible, after which a bald patch may appear. This bald patch may progress until it meets a receding hairline or causes a prominent area of baldness at the top or back of the head. Again, the extensiveness or pattern is different from person to person, but thinning hair or baldness at the crown is very common. You can find hundreds of photographic examples of those who have experienced regrowth from their hair growth programme, specifically for a thinning crown by clicking below.

General Thinning

A less common pattern of hair loss is general thinning, spread evenly over the top of the scalp. Men experiencing this pattern of men’s hair loss will not notice a distinct receding hairline or thinning crown and in cases of general thinning the onset of hair loss may be less obvious and take longer to identify. Thankfully, like the other patterns of male hair loss this form of thinning can be successfully prevented and in may cases reversed. Like all other patterns of Male Pattern Hair Loss, general thinning will not affect the back and sides of the scalp and if you are experiencing hair loss in these areas it will be caused by another condition. Click below for examples of this hair loss type, and photos of the results that so many patients have seen.
