Why aren't my baby hairs growing? (photos)

Question

So after I shaved my hairline I got sideswept bangs to cover up the little stubble growing back. I've had bangs ever since. I don't remember having problems with small hairs like the ones I have now before but they bother me a lot because they do not grow to the length as the rest of my bangs/hairs. i have provided pictures of my original hairline before I shaved it, when I shaved it, and how my hairline looks now. I hope there is some way to fix my horrible hairline .

If you have issues with your hair line, see a doctor for possible treatment options.  Baby hairs on the front hair line will not grow just because you shave them.

Sara Wasserbauer, MD · Answer

Definitely set up an appointment with a hair doctor to figure out what is causing the hair to grow back fine. Many times baby hairs grow because of lack of blood supply to the follicle. There are treatments that can help with this that the doctor can help you with.

You are near our office so I would suggest that you make an appointment to see me. From the pictures, your hairline looks high in the middle. The fine hairs that do not grow would have to be examined by me under the microscope on your head so that I can determine if these hairs will ever grow to natural length as the rest of your head. I look forward to meeting with you.
