is mothers fathers norwood/hairline legit

[Subhuman trash]

My mother's father didn't norwood. Does that mean I have hope? or is that a myth?

It's not entirely false but for the most part it is a myth

 

[YoungRichNigga]

My uncle did not bald but his mothers father is bald but my great grandfather is bald. Its not a law, probably just a myth from confirmation bias. Women whos fathers didnt bald might not carry the balding gene but it still could exist, also the fathers genes without a doubt also play a role. Genes are literally a lottery fam.

Complete cope. My maternal grandfather was Norwood 0 all his life meanwhile I've been norwooding since 16

partially legit, some genes related to hairloss are located on the X-chromosome. If both, your maternal grandfather and your father are bald you're pretty much fucked. If only one of the two is bald there is some hope

[maxmendietta]

my mother's father has exact hair type like me.

It’s partly true because the androgen receptor gene is on the X chromosome which you get from your mother. However, other genes play a large role as well

it's a normie's tale

My mother’s father NEVER norwooded and I starting to lose it at 16

I'm starting to believe mpb starts with some massive stressor - once you start the cascade you're fucked. At least that's how it was in my case. I feel like it's also so random, pretty much everyone experiences it somewhat differently. I don't believe in the "it's in muh genes" bs. The higher tissue DHT levels are there because there's underlying inflamation going that isn't easy to shut down - so DHT isn't the cause...it's the answer.

My grandpa (mother's side) is nw0 at age of 79. His son is nw6 at age of 52.
