I got an extremely short hair cut around two weeks ago and have been able to see my scalp since. My hair has grown fairly significantly since then but you can still see my scalp slightly. My scalp is extremely visible under harsh lighting. Is this premature baldness or just a result of a short haircut. The second picture is under direct light
Answer: Use common sense or logic. Use common sense. If you cut your hair "extremely" close as you state, you will naturally see your scalp. If your hair grows "significantly since" you may still see your scalp "slightly". If you have harsh lighting, you will see your scalp more than if you're in low lighting.What you describe isn't balding. It's common sense.

Answer: Thinning Hair -- Rogaine, Propecia, Viviscal, Progesterone, PRP Thinning Hair -- Rogaine, Propecia, Viviscal, Progesterone, PRPIf you have thinning hair you really need an evaluation to see if it is genetic or from another cause like stress or autoimmune. If it is determined to be genetic there are many options and traditional treatments like rogaine foam and propecia pills can be used. I have great success in my practice using injectable progesterone and prp to the scalp. Postmenopausal women also benefit from spironolactone. I suggest seeing a dermatologist with expertise in hair loss. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Premature balding or short hair cut? Great question, but impossible to tell with photos. With the pattern of the hairline, it's quite unlikely you have premature balding... but you'd need a hair medicine specialist to look up close with a dermatocope instrument to determine if the hairs are undergoing miniaturization. That's the only way to tell. But all in all, it would be surprising if you had early genetic hair loss given the the pattern of your current hairline.
