Hair Thinning on Top of the Head: Female Pattern Baldness

Why hair thins on the top of your head, how to tell which stage you are at, what a dermatologist can do about it, and the gentlest ways to cover it. Common, treatable, and yours to handle at your own pace.

You are not imagining it, and caring about it is not vanity.

Maybe you saw it in a photo taken from above, under the light in a fitting room, or in a ponytail that needed one more twist of the elastic. A part that keeps getting wider is often an early sign of female pattern hair loss, the most common kind of hair loss in women. It can be treated, and starting early may help you keep more of your hair.

What you want is an ordinary morning again, where you do your hair once and then forget about it. Getting there takes three steps: find out what it is, look after the hair you have, and cover it the gentlest way that works, if and when you want to.

is this female pattern hair loss?

what it looks like, and what else it could be

It starts at the part. The line where your hair divides gets wider, usually most toward the front, and more scalp shows on the top of your head while the front hairline stays where it was. Hair near the temples can thin too. Over time the whole top of the head can look less full, but women rarely lose all of it the way some men do.

Women experience stages of balding in a distinctly different manner than men. Men typically lose hair from the front and it gradually recedes over the top of the scalp, reaching the back of the head. They end up with a band of hair above the ears and around the back of the head. Women lose hair from the top of the scalp (hair part area) and experience reduced density, but usually retain their original hairlines in front.

Dermatologists sometimes describe the shape as a Christmas tree, with the part widest at the front and narrowing toward the crown.

A dermatologist is best placed to tell you which one you have. Pattern hair loss does not scar the follicles. Some of the look-alikes do, and each kind needs a different treatment, so it is worth one appointment. If you are in treatment for cancer, our guide to chemo and hair loss is written for you.

why it happens

genes, hormones and time

Hair loss in women, while not discussed as often as hair loss in men, is more common than you may think. Hair loss can start in a woman's 30s, or even earlier, and becomes more common after menopause. Hereditary hair loss affects an estimated 50 million men and 30 million women in the United States, according to the American Academy of Dermatology. The risk of hair loss increases with age, and is higher for women with a history of hair loss on either side of the family. As many as two-thirds of postmenopausal women experience hair thinning or bald spots, according to Harvard Health.

Pattern hair loss is inherited, from your mother's side, your father's, or both. It becomes more common after menopause, so hormones may play a part too, though having it does not necessarily mean your hormone levels are off. It is not something you caused with a shampoo, a hair color or a hat.

What changes is the follicle. With each growth cycle the growing phase gets shorter and the follicle shrinks a little, so each new hair grows in finer and shorter than the one before. The result reads as thinning rather than as bald patches.

hair loss

Regardless of age, it is normal to lose 50 to 100 hairs per day. Thinning hair is a natural sign of aging and does not always indicate an underlying problem. A part that keeps getting wider is one to show a dermatologist while it is still mild, because treatment works best started early. Hormonal changes can affect hair growth patterns, so it is fairly common for menopausal women to experience both hair thinning and hair loss. Hair on the head and body may thin out, but the decrease in estrogen can cause more noticeable hair on upper lips or chins. Hair follicles also decrease in size with age so they produce finer hair, leading to an appearance of varying degrees of baldness, especially in men.

Your hair cycles through three phases continuously throughout your life: a growth phase, a transition phase and a resting phase. Hair grows over a period of several years during the growth phase. It prepares to fall out during the shorter transition phase. At the end of the resting phase, it falls out. As you age, each hair spends more time in the resting phase, meaning that you are shedding hair faster than it grows in.

While some women experience sporadic or minor hair loss, millions have female pattern hair loss (FPHL). FPHL is the most common cause of female hair loss and typically starts when a woman is in her 40s, 50s, or 60s, though it can begin earlier. It is progressive, so without any treatment, hair loss continues. Hair near the temples may thin as well, and the hair loss may spread to other parts of the scalp.

gray hair

Most women remember when they spotted their first gray hair. It may have been in their 30s or 40s, but if it's any consolation, about three in four people between 45 and 65 have some gray hair, according to a 2012 study in the British Journal of Dermatology. Hair turns gray when cells stop producing pigment, a natural occurrence of age. While scientists have known for many years that the timeline for "going gray" is linked to genetics, in 2016 they identified a gray gene called IRF4. Along with potential solutions for delaying hair turning gray, the gene might improve researchers' understanding of aging.

changes in hair texture and strength

As you age, cells that comprise the hair's protective outer cuticle become increasingly fragile. A decrease in keratin protein levels and fatty acids leaves hair weaker, duller, and less elastic. This causes hair to break when pulled or stressed. Gray hair may seem coarser because oil glands produce less sebum as you age, resulting in drier and rougher textured hair. Aging hair simply cannot withstand the same kind of styling as it did when you were younger. A moisturizing conditioner after every shampoo is a good way to combat hair dryness.

stages of female pattern baldness

women's hair loss stages, on the Ludwig scale

To determine the correct hair piece to conceal hair loss, it's useful to consider the current stage of hair loss. The Ludwig Scale is the method of classification most commonly used for female pattern hair loss. Unlike the Hamilton-Norwood Scale used in men, it measures female baldness in just three stages (also called grades), noted as mild, moderate, and extensive.

It is not the only scale. Dermatologists also use the Sinclair scale, which has five stages, and the Savin scale, which follows the widening part through eight. They describe what a dermatologist sees. None of them decides what you should do.

stage 1 (grade 1)

Illustration of stage 1 female pattern hair loss: mild thinning along the part

This is the start of female pattern baldness, with some mild thinning of the hair on the top of the scalp. At this stage, hair loss is often unnoticeable to others and minimal hair loss can be easily camouflaged with hair styling techniques.

stage 2 (grade 2)

Illustration of stage 2 female pattern hair loss: a wider part and less volume on top

Hair loss is moderate, but becoming more noticeable, with significant widening of the midline part and noticeably decreased volume. The scalp shows through on top.

stage 3 (grade 3)

Illustration of stage 3 female pattern hair loss: more scalp than hair on top

The most severe form of hair loss, extensive hair loss has caused more scalp to be visible than hair. Treatment can still help at this stage, though it works best started earlier.

what a dermatologist can do

treatment works best started early
See a dermatologist early. We sell toppers and wigs, so take this as said against our own interest. Treatment can keep pattern hair loss from getting worse and can help hair grow back, and it works best started at the first sign. Treating it and covering it are not either-or. You can do both.

A dermatologist is likely to talk through some mix of these, and knowing the names ahead of time makes the appointment go further.

Treatments a dermatologist may discuss for female pattern hair loss, what each is, and what to know about it
treatmentwhat it iswhat to know
minoxidil on the scalpA liquid or foam in 2% or 5% strength, sold without a prescription. It is the only medicine the FDA has approved for female pattern hair loss, and the one dermatologists recommend most.Shedding can increase for the first two to eight weeks, then stops as regrowth begins. Scalp irritation and unwanted hair on the face are possible side effects. It takes six to twelve months to know whether it works for you, and it only keeps working while you use it. Not for pregnancy, planned pregnancy or breastfeeding.
prescription pillsMedicines approved for other conditions that dermatologists sometimes prescribe off-label for pattern hair loss, such as spironolactone or a low-dose minoxidil pill. Finasteride or dutasteride may be considered for some women.Each has different side effects, monitoring needs and pregnancy considerations, so the choice depends on your medical history. They take months to judge, and the benefit usually fades if you stop.
at-home laser devicesCombs, caps and helmets that shine low-level light on the scalp, sold without a prescription and cleared by the FDA.A few studies show benefit. They work only with continued use, and long-term safety is not yet known.
platelet-rich plasma (PRP)Your own blood, spun to concentrate the platelets, then injected into the scalp.Early results are promising, but more research is needed to know how safe and effective it is.
hair transplantSurgery that moves hair from fuller areas to thinning ones.An option for some women. If hair is sparse all over, there may not be enough to move.
supplementsBiotin, folic acid and other hair vitamins.Correcting a real deficiency can help hair affected by it. Otherwise, in most studies they had no effect on growth or thickness. Ask your dermatologist before starting one, since some interact with medicines.
hair loss shampoosThickening and volumizing shampoos and treatments.They can help hair look fuller and break less. They cannot regrow hair or keep pattern hair loss from getting worse.

Give treatment time. Hair grows slowly, and many treatments for female pattern hair loss take six to twelve months before you or your dermatologist can judge them. Photos of your part taken every month or two, in the same spot and the same light, will tell you more than the mirror will.
questions to take to the appointment
  • Is this female pattern hair loss, or could it be something else?
  • Do I need blood work first, for my thyroid, iron or hormones?
  • What would you start with, and how will we know if it is working?
  • Is it safe with my other medicines, and with any plans for pregnancy?
  • What happens if I stop?

Bring photos of your part from the last year or two, and a note of anything that changed in the months before you noticed: a new medicine, an illness, a birth, menopause.

caring for gray or thinning hair

protect the hair you have

As hair thins, it's important to care for it properly to minimize further hair loss or damage. No hair care stops pattern hair loss, and nothing you did caused it. What gentle care does is keep the hair you have from breaking.

  • Use gentle shampoos and conditioners without harsh or stripping products. Regular deep-conditioning treatments are essential to add shine and help smooth hair cuticles. Argan oil is especially hydrating and is found in a number of hair products. On fine hair, keep oils and heavy conditioners to the lengths and ends, where they cannot flatten the roots.
  • Eat a well-balanced diet. If you are concerned about a deficiency, ask your doctor whether blood work makes sense before starting biotin, folic acid, iron, zinc or other hair supplements. Supplements help most when you are low in something, and too much of some nutrients can be harmful.
  • Use a wide-tooth comb instead of a hairbrush. Straight hair is most fragile when soaking wet, so let it dry a little first; curly or textured hair is often easiest to detangle while damp, with conditioner in. Hairbrushes tend to pull out more hair than a comb would. Be sure to start at the hair tips to comb out any tangles near the bottom and work your way up. Air drying your hair also keeps heat off it.
  • Avoid certain hair treatments such as hot oil treatments, hot rollers, or curling irons. These items can further damage hair, causing more breakage.
  • Go easy on chemical processing. Coloring, relaxing, straightening and perms do not cause pattern hair loss, but repeated processing can make fine hair break. A stylist who works with thinning hair can avoid processing the same lengths over and over.
  • When styling hair, do not pull it back super tight, as this places a strain on the follicle, possibly leading to traction alopecia (a form of alopecia caused by tight, taut hairstyles, which can leave scarring on the scalp and lead to permanent hair loss). The same goes for anything that clips into your hair: if it pulls, move it.
  • Use heated styling tools sparingly. Gray hair tends to be more brittle and dry than hair with all its natural pigment. Damage from heat styling can make it wiry and coarse. When you use heated tools, set them at the lowest setting and reduce contact times to avoid damaging fibers.
  • Air dry. Skip blow drying whenever possible, allowing hair to dry naturally. When you do use a dryer, keep it on a cool setting.
  • If you are having a bad hair day, you can always wear your favorite hat, head scarf, hair topper or perhaps a flattering women's wig.

Biotin: tell your doctor before any blood test.

Biotin, common in hair vitamins, can throw off lab results at high doses, including thyroid tests, which are often part of a hair loss workup. The FDA has warned about it. If you take biotin, say so before blood is drawn, and ask your doctor or the lab whether to stop it beforehand, and for how long.

how it feels

and what helps
a note from our founder

In thirty years of fitting, I have found that the emotional part usually has to come before the physical part. Until it does, many women put off the physical, and denial is powerful.

So when a woman first comes to us for help, the first thing we tell her is that it's okay to take care of herself.

Danielle

Grieving your hair is not vanity. Your hair is how you have recognized yourself in the mirror your whole life, and watching it thin slowly is its own kind of loss. You are allowed to mind it, even knowing that other people are facing worse.

“If it is important to you, it is important.”Dr. Victoria Barbosa, director of the Hair Loss Program at the University of Chicago

the checking

Checking the part in every mirror, in the car, in shop windows, is tiring, and it is not vanity either. It is what anyone does with something they are worried about. It usually eases once you have something you trust, and the first week of anything new is the most watchful.

If keeping up with it has started to feel like a second job, you are allowed to take days off. A hat on the mornings you cannot face it is a real answer.

the forums

Online groups help some women and wear others down. If an hour of reading leaves you more frightened than when you started, close it. You are allowed to.

telling people, or not

You do not owe anyone an explanation, at work or anywhere else. If someone says your hair looks nice, thank you is a complete answer. If you would rather tell people, that is yours to decide too.

when someone touches your hair

Women living with this deserve a real answer.

The fear is usually bigger than the moment. A partner who matters takes their cue from you.

your choice, your timing

Some women tell a partner early, so there is never a surprise. Some wait until it feels right. Both are fine.

practical options

Whatever you wear for coverage comes off at night, so bedtime is already a moment you choose. If you would rather stay covered, a soft sleeping cap stays put on hair through the night.

And if anyone reaches for your hair when you do not want them to, you are allowed to say so.

for the people who love her

If you are reading this for someone else, skip "it's just hair," "you look fine" and "at least it isn't something worse." Each one is meant kindly, and each one tells her to stop minding. Try this instead: "I can see this is hard. Tell me what would help." Then do the thing she names.

concealing female pattern baldness

start with the least, and stop when it is enough

Is it showing? Probably less than you think. You see your part from a few inches away, under a light that shines straight down on it, which is the harshest view there is. The overhead lights in a fitting room or an office do the same. Across a table, at eye level, people see far less scalp than you do.

You do not need to reach a certain stage before you are allowed to do something about it. If it is bothering you, that is enough.

You do not have to cover it at all. If you want to, match the fix to the stage and start with whatever asks least of you. Most of it can be undone tomorrow.

stage 1 hair loss

Mild hair loss can often be concealed by modifying your haircut and styling techniques.

  • Keep hair at the collarbone or shorter. Shorter hair creates the illusion of more volume while longer hair can look skimpy.
  • Avoid short, heavy bangs, as they reduce hair volume where you need it the most. Opt for long bangs instead.
  • Texturize instead of layer. Normal layers thin the hair and can give a skimpy appearance.
  • Blunt cuts give the illusion of fullness. Lightly shape or texturize to soften the look.
  • Use volumizing shampoos, conditioners and styling products. Avoid "silkening," "smoothing," and "moisturizing" products with silicones and oils that can weigh it down.
  • Wash hair often. Oils build up more quickly in fine hair; frequent washing will keep the hair lighter. If your hair is dry or tightly curled, it may need washing less often, so go by what your hair needs.
  • Experiment with the part. For example, a zigzag part can conceal the scalp while a deep side part can add lift. Hair that has parted the same way for years takes a week or two of training to stay somewhere new.
  • Deeper-colored roots make hair appear more dense. Coloring techniques and scalp micropigmentation, tiny tinted dots tattooed into the scalp, are two ways to achieve the look of darker roots at the scalp. Scalp micropigmentation is a cosmetic tattoo, not a hair loss treatment, so if you consider it, choose a licensed, experienced practitioner.
  • Use blow drying techniques that lift the hair, on a cool setting.
  • Be gentle with the hair and avoid heated styling tools to reduce breakage.

start with your shampoo

Flat hair shows more scalp, and the easiest place to start is your shampoo. We carry the full Nioxin range, and in our experience it helps fine hair look fuller. Choose the system by your hair type and how far the thinning has gone.

Nioxin says to use all three steps at least three times a week and to give it about 30 days. It will not regrow hair or stop pattern hair loss, but fuller-looking hair shows less scalp.

color the scalp, not the hair

Thinning shows because pale scalp sits next to darker hair. Take away the contrast and much of the thinness goes with it. A root touch-up powder brushed along the part does this for the day and washes out with your next shampoo. Choose the shade of your roots, not your ends, since the roots are what sit at the part.

a headband on the days you want it gone

A wide headband pulls your hair back over the part, which is where the thinning shows first. It takes a minute, and it reads as a look you picked.

stage 2 hair loss

A hair topper

At stage 2, a hairpiece can give coverage that styling alone may not. Hair toppers (or half wigs) are often a good option. These clever hair pieces clip in and blend in with your own hair, concealing particular areas with hair loss. Some toppers cover just the part area while others will cover the entire top of the head. Toppers are a versatile way to conceal varying degrees of hair loss. To learn more, visit our guide on hair toppers. Toppers can be a good option for women who need more than a change in hairstyle can give them.

  • Size the base to the thin area, plus a little. In our experience, the most common mistake is too little coverage, because a bigger piece would mean accepting what is happening. Measure the thinning, then choose a base about an inch longer and an inch wider, so there is half an inch of stronger hair on every side for the clips to hold. The base size is the whole base, edge to edge. Our crown coverage chart shows which base covers which area.
  • Clip into your strongest hair. A clip should never hurt. If one pinches, reclip it, and take the topper off to sleep. If your scalp is sore, inflamed or scarred, or your hair feels too sparse to hold a clip comfortably, ask your dermatologist or a stylist who fits hairpieces before relying on clips.
  • Match the color at the part, in daylight. The part is where your hair and the topper meet, so that is the color to match, and bathroom light hides a mismatch that a window shows. Our guide to choosing hair color covers the rest.
  • Expect a lot of hair at first. If a new topper looks fuller than your own hair has been for a while, that is normal. A stylist who cuts hairpieces can thin it in a few minutes.
  • Human hair or synthetic. Human hair styles and reacts to the weather like your own. Synthetic holds its style through rain and humidity and needs less work. Our topper comparison guide sets them side by side.
  • Give it a week. The first mornings take longer, with a lot of checking. It gets quicker, and it gets quieter.

If the thinning is mostly at the front, clip-in bangs cover the hairline, and a topper cut with a fringe hides its own front edge.

Hats are the other answer at this stage. This is the perfect opportunity to add hats, head scarves and turbans to your style. Fashionable and chic, you can up your style game and conceal hair loss at the same time.

A hat covers the part and asks nothing else of you: no mirror, no styling, no matching. Your own hair does the work at the sides and the back. Hats come in endless colors and shapes, so they are also the easiest way to change your look on a whim. Berets and slouchy beanies are the ones our customers come back for, and many women find a signature style: one shape they love, in several colors.

Does wearing a hat cause hair loss?

No. Wearing a hat that fits does not cause or accelerate hair loss of any kind. The myth persisted because men who were already thinning happened to wear hats frequently. A properly fitting hat in a breathable fabric poses no risk to your scalp or remaining hair.

stage 3 hair loss

A woman holding a wig

To conceal stage 3 hair loss, full coverage hats and scarves are not only beautiful but comfortable.

If you want the look of a full head of hair once extensive hair loss sets in, a full wig is another option, and often the most natural-looking one. Monofilament wigs give the appearance of real hair growing from the scalp and look extremely natural. To learn more about wearing wigs, see our wig buying guide.

Look at wigs with less hair than you think you want. After a long stretch of thin hair, a wig at standard density can look like far too much, and our low density wigs are made with less hair. If you are choosing a gray, look for one with some dimension, rooted or blended, rather than a single flat shade, and remember that gray is not mandatory. Our wigs for older women are a good place to start.

You do not have to wait until things get worse to choose one. A wig is a good answer whenever it feels like the right one.

Moving to a wig is not a step backward, just a different answer to the same question.

Start small with a root touch-up powder, or browse hair toppers when you want more coverage.

frequently asked questions

open only the one you need
should I buy a wig or a topper?

Many women experiencing thinning hair may contemplate purchasing a wig at some point. While some hair loss may be advanced enough to warrant a wig, a hair topper might be a better choice. If you are torn on whether a topper or wig would be best for you, we recommend visiting our guide on hair toppers vs. wigs.

can female pattern baldness be reversed?

It cannot be cured, but it can often be slowed, and treatment can help some hair grow back. It works best started at the first sign. Keeping any regrowth depends on staying on treatment; if you stop, the gain is usually gone within a few months.

do thickening shampoos like Nioxin work?

They can make fine hair look fuller and break less, according to the American Academy of Dermatology, and at an early stage that can be enough. We carry the full Nioxin range with our hair thickening products, and in our experience it helps fine hair look fuller. Nioxin's system kits do not contain minoxidil, and they cannot regrow hair or keep pattern hair loss from getting worse, so if the thinning keeps going, use them alongside a dermatologist's treatment, not instead of it.

is it normal to shed more when starting minoxidil?

Yes. For the first two to eight weeks you may notice more hair coming out, and it stops as regrowth begins. If your scalp becomes red, itchy, dry or scaly, stop using it and see your dermatologist.

can a topper make my hair loss worse?

It should not, if it fits. A clip that pulls works on your hair the way a tight ponytail does, and constant pulling over months can thin the hair it grips. Clip into your strongest hair, reclip anything that pinches, choose a base big enough to reach healthier hair on every side, and take the topper off to sleep.

will insurance pay for a topper for pattern hair loss?

It depends on your plan. Many plans that cover a hair prosthesis limit it to certain medical diagnoses, so it is worth one call. Ask whether your diagnosis qualifies, which billing code they want you to use (A9282 is one code for wigs), and whether a topper counts or only a full wig. A code by itself does not mean the item is covered. Our guide to wig insurance coverage has the steps.

does biotin help hair grow back?

Probably not. In most studies, biotin and other hair supplements had no effect on growth or thickness. Biotin can also throw off blood tests, including thyroid tests, so tell your doctor if you take it, and ask your dermatologist before starting any supplement.

how much hair loss is normal?

Losing 50 to 100 hairs a day is normal. Pattern hair loss usually shows as a wider part rather than as extra hair in the drain. If you are shedding far more than usual, our guide to hair falling out explains what is normal and when to see a doctor.

do women go completely bald?

Rarely. Female pattern baldness thins the hair on the top of the head and widens the part, but women seldom lose all of it the way many men do, and the front hairline usually stays. Hair lost in patches, or suddenly all over, points to a different cause, and a dermatologist can tell you which.

what age does female pattern baldness start?

Most often in the 40s, 50s or 60s, but it can begin earlier, even in the teens or twenties, and it becomes more common after menopause.


why we care about this

specialists in hair loss since 1995

In 1990 my mother Carol went through breast cancer treatment and could not find anything comfortable or attractive to wear. She was a hairstylist, and she promised herself that if she came through it she would fix that for the women who came after her. In 1995 she and I started Headcovers together.

Most of the women we fit are going through cancer treatment. The rest have hair that is thinning for other reasons, and they deserve the same care. Call us and a person answers, someone who will start with the smallest thing that might work before the biggest. After a fitting, women have taken control back. Whatever you choose, and for as long as you need it, we will be here. What we want for you is that ordinary morning, where you do your hair once and get on with your day.
