What's the youngest age you can get a hair transplant?

Balding21
I'm current 21 years old. My hair Line is running a 40 meter dash on me and I'm afraid it will be completely done in 4.3 years. Getting out of the shower makes me look like I have the hair of a 50 year old. It makes me extremely self conscious to the point that people have said I'm quiet now because I don't want anyone to notice the loss. I want to get a transplant but everyone says I'm too young. Is there a right age to do this
