So I'm 27 and baldness is creeping up on me. 3 q's: 1) Family hx: Many bald uncles/GF who had straight hair and bald by 25. One curly uncle like me who still has his hair at 60 (my hairline- thinning now). Can I realistically look forward to his hair life? 2) At 27, is it likely I'll lose much more?
