The meaning of thinning hair
I thought I recalled a post of yours somewhere where you said just because a person with AGA is thinning and losing hair in select areas (depending on their Norwood level) that doesn’t mean those areas will end up slick bald. Those areas can thin to a certain percentage of their original density and then stabilize there.
Thinning occurs in three forms:
1- Miniaturization which generally leads to balding. This never impacts the donor area.
2- Age-Related Thinning: generally hits older people but can hit the younger person as well. This is unified thinning all over the head, including the donor area
3- Moseac Thinning: Some people have Moseac characteristics that are almost impossible to detect without good genetic testing comparing hair follicles, a very expensive process if it can be done at all.
