« I have very tight corn rows and seem to be losing hair at the front. Can these cause baldness?Why do we mostly go bald on top and not on the sides? The hair on the sides in called "Glandular hair", and is immune (has no allergy to) to the chemical DHT which is the most common cause of male pattern baldness. »
