If I Shave My Head, Could Parts Not Regrow?

Hi .. I searched your blog to find an answer to this one, but don’t think I did.

I’m a male, 40s, losing hair since about 19 and pattern has stabilized to a bit of hair left up front and decent growth on sides.

My question is this: If I chose to shave the remaining hair atop my head to evaluate the look, is there and chance what little is there would not grow back or grow back differently?

Thanks.

Shaving your head will not impact hair growth. The hairs that are miniaturized generally have a slow growth cycle and if the miniaturization is advanced and the hair already stopped growing, then you will see a bald area with no growth (not caused by the shave but by the advanced balding).
