Here are two pics from June.
The reason I made this thread is because of the original pics I posted in this thread. I was convinced I was balding so I said f*** it I’m gonna take accutane, and the only reason I was hesitant on the drug was because of the potential hair loss side effect. Now after I’ve finished the course I’ve realized maybe I was wrong about balding and it was just the way my hair grows that convinced me I was gonna go bald anyways (I have an older brother who went bald early on and my father and relatives are all generally bald.). Now I’m 3 months post accutane and around the last month or so of being on the drug I realized my hair was feeling thinner and looking thinner too. The pictures I’m posting in this reply are from a few weeks before I went on the drug. I realize now I had a great hair line and I made a mistake taking the drug and risking my hair which is my favorite feature. In one of these photos I drew a faint line which indicates where I’ve seen a lot of thinning and more visible scalp since accutane.
Two weeks ago I took a photo of myself and noticed a lot of diffuse thinning in general. I got a buzz cut and my hair had grown out over the course of a month and half months so in my mind I’m thinking my scalp shouldn’t be that visible especially when in low light. But I took a photo of my hair yesterday and my scalp looks less visible, but two weeks isn’t that much time for hair two grow, maybe only .25 inches of growth, im not sure if that’s enough growth to visually impact a visible diffuse thinning scalp from looking fuller. I’m not sure if it’s cause my hair has grown and is covering more scalp or if my hair is rebounding and starting to grow properly again. I hope it’s situation #2. But even so the front of my hair line is thinner up to the point of that line I drew in one of the pictures.
I’ve also noticed thin/ short hairs are being shed occasionally and 2-3 seen on my hands when showering. I’m worried my hair is now miniaturizing. Or maybe it’s going into a resting phase and the hairs will soon or now be coming back to life and growing properly.
