Our hair is so tied to our self image that a drastic change is often used as an emotional release or identity overhaul. Often a change in style or hair colour can reignite our self esteem and give a new found confidence.
So when that hair starts to vanish, many will do everything in their power to keep that hairline firmly in place taking supplements, getting transplants or disguising it as it creeps backwards.
Dubbed "hairxiety", a new study has revealed that nine in 10 young adults are worried about the possibility of their hair thinning, receding or disappearing entirely.
