“You have a bald spot”, I was told

I’m 38, topical fin/min/tretinoin user. Have seen some excellent recovery and regrowth which has given me so much confidence. I know this because I think less and less about my hair being thin. I have accepted there won’t be a full recovery and I’m at peace with it. Visited my brother and family at the weekend, I was sat with young niece on my shoulders and out of nowhere, she shouts out “you have a bald spot” whilst in the presence of friends and family. I was just like “cheers for that” and have thought it about for the past couple of days. I know it will pass, where I have this self-confidence issue but this isn’t the first time it’s happened – someone at work pointed it out as they walked behind me past my desk. “You’ve got a bald spot”. Thank you so much for that, I’m really glad you brought it to my attention, I will now think about this for the next few weeks.

My kids told me, when I was driving, that I had a bald spot and made fun of my Friar Tuck crown balding. I had it transplanted when I was in my 50s.
