·

All Caucasian men possess the inherited tendency for male pattern balding, also known as androgenetic alopecia. Eventually, 96 percent of those men will lose hair to some degree, but because of variability in the expression of the genes, many will not have noticeable early hair loss.While it is possible for women to develop androgenetic alopecia, it is much less common. Scientists have found that black men are four times less likely than Caucasians to prematurely bald. Losing hair might be a horrifying concept for some, but others see a silver lining.
