Unnatural Looking Balding Pattern (with Photos)

This appears like a hair transplant that did not grow, but it is actually a natural balding pattern in a 50 year old man with frontal balding. So why does it look so unnatural? The reason is that the hairs that remain are all healthy hairs, and the surrounding healthy hairs have disappeared (died). Most people develop miniaturized hairs, which is when the hair shafts become finer (front to back), and they just get thinner and thinner in appearance. That is what normally happens in most men. Sometimes, men have mosaic type genetic balding patterns, where some hair in the front remains for the lifetime and looks healthy (hair by hair), but the overall appearance on this type of balding pattern is particularly ‘shaggy’ and has a less-than-healthy look.
