Technically, hair loss is normal at any age......up to a point. "Old" hairs at the end of their growth cycle are constantly being shed to make room for new hairs, at the rate of 100-150 hairs per day. If you are losing more hair than that, or if new hairs are not growing to take the place of the hairs that have fallen out, you may be one of the many young men who are affected by genetic hair loss that can progress over the years to baldness. You should see a hair loss specialist who can properly evaluate and advise you.
Your biggest enemy is the progressive thinningleading to a balding pattern that is not evident at this point in time. Thedegree of thinning that you are experiencing might suggest that you should seea doctor who most likely will get Bulk Measurements of your hair to determinethe degree of the thinning that you are presently having. If the diagnosis isearly genetic hair loss (the most common cause of hair loss in young men), thenthe best treatment would be the drug finasteride which is highly effective inmen of your age and may not only stop the hair loss but possibly reverse it. Ifyou are developing a more advanced balding pattern the best test to get willdetermine the Bulk Measurements of your hair and this will show, over aone-year time frame, how effective the treatment will be. Once you know thisinformation, then you and your doctor need to develop a MASTER PLAN which willdefine what you need to do over the years to come
