Is this a normal hair whorl or is it hair loss? (Photo)

Question

I'm almost 22, Korean.

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

This needs an in-person evaluation. I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone which can help with hair regrowth and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

One would need to examine the area up close to determine if it’s normal. However, if the density is unchanged from photos you have from 5 and 10 years ago, it’s likely normal.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

This most likely a normal whorl. Because of your black and,  light scal color and the change in dirrection of the hair, the whorl stands out.
