Now that I have longer hair, I've been noticing for a few weeks that when I wash + shampoo my hair I lose this much hair (+ around 20 more while showering)

Am i balding or is it normal?
It only happens when I wash and use shampoo once a week, other than that i don't see them falling.

let me guess you've started growing out your hair recently.

normal, longer hair + washed minimally = more hairs visibly fall out, i used to have a shit ton for a couple weeks then it just went away, now i get barely any

yes, i always had them short-medium now it's the longest it has ever been
this amount of shedding is normal you just don't notice it with short hair.

You could be thining hurry up and hop on minoxidil and finasteride to prevent balding and your good
 
balding is not related to losing/shedding hair strands. it is about your *hair follicles miniaturizing* over time/hair cycles.

Is that actually the reason????
you can barely tell if you're shedding at all when your hair is short, the longer it gets the more obvious it is.

Some miniaturization of hairs, but idk how it looked a few years ago, either way this cannot be called "balding".
You're good.

Thanks. Where do you see the miniaturization? How can someone know if they are actually losing hair?

Hairs which are short, weak, thin can be called miniaturized. The best way to tell if ur balding is to take pics, and then compare over time. Before a hair falls out, it will get miniaturized, if you see strong, thick hairs, they probably will not fall out anytime soon. You can also tell if you're losing by pulling very big clumps out during showers. (Not the regular amount like the one you got in your pics)

if you wash once a week thats normal
past 20 you should start taking dut/fin tho
your corners are recessing
might be normal but better not letting the hair thin

Fin/dut topical minox keto shampoo rosemary oil dermastamper
Care about fin/dut
Do your researchs
 
no, ur hairline is very good and density overall looks great. if you are paranoid just get on Fin when you turn 21, earlier you start the more hair you will keep as you age

losing up to 150 hair(s) is acceptable. What matters is that the hair follicles stay alive. Especially with long hair if you go two or three days without showering finding hair in the sink is no reason to worry at all.

Hairline looks normal. When in doubt always see a dermatologist for medical advice.

Same is happening to me i'm scared bruh but my corners are fine

Ever since I cut my hair ive noticed none. When I had long hair I thought I was sick. I would wake up and be surrounded with hair.
