Last night my girlfriend (who I've been seeing for around 2ish months) and I were talking about aging (e.g., getting fat, having bad skin, etc.). I made a comment to her that if my hair even got bad I would get a hair transplant to fix it and she kind of gave me a "concerned" look. She then made a comment that I'm "afraid to get old" (I also talked about my skincare routine) and we started to discuss halo effect, how looking good impacts your self esteem, etc. Mind you my hair loss is very minor and has more or less halted due to my finasteride used.

Was it bad of me to mention this? Everyone always says to avoid discussing this but I was just curious. Has anyone had any discusses with partners about their possible hair transplants?

Feel her out first. If she is concerned about you going bald and you dont mind getting a transplant, then mention it. But not all women care about guys losing their hair. Some believe or not actually stress less iver it cause they get fat or wrinkly and levels the playing field.

Something I learned, when comments like these are brought up, always encourage further discussion and by discussion I mean ask and don't give your opinion. Ask her why she feels like taking care of ones self is afraid of aging? Maybe ask her if she considers people that run of doing the same thing?

Listen and be open minded. If she makes good points agree with her and thank her for being open enough to give you her open.

You pushing your thoughts on her isn't going to work. Who knows maybe she'll change your mind on your skin routine (I have one too btw, so what are you using?) And if she doesn't it's not worth having a strong stance. Just continue doing what you do and find stuff you agree with. This avoids toxic relationships. Arguing isn't worth it. No one wins.
