Hair Damage from Very Hot Shower?

I just wanna say that you’re doing an amazing job answering people questions! And also I have a quick question, I came home a little drunk one night and decided to hop in the shower..I could not really feel the temperature of the water I was in, but I expect it was quite warm as I woke up to my hair looking almost twice as thin as it was the day before???? also many hairs in the front are broken in the middle and some are very short broken? Perhaps I had an overly warm shower that cooked my hair? I believe my scalp when I touched it felt a little burnt…If this did contribute to the baldness would it grow back? There is still a fair bit of hair left but it is thined out on the front where i suspect the shower head was nailing it…maybe im wrong maybe im just goin bald but it happened so quick I dunno…Im just turning 19.

Thank you kind sir.

Thanks for your kind words. Hot water from a shower should not cause hair loss. I am assuming that you did not get burns as a result of that shower. Scalding hot water can cause hair loss, but it would have also burned your skin. Wait it out and it should return, that is, unless you have genetic balding and you are denying the relationships of a progressive hair loss over time and just haven’t noticed until this showering event.
