Q: Thin Hair 16 Yr Old Boy w/ Bald Patches - Make Hair Thicker ?

My 16 yr old son has thin hair. This bothers him a lot. He is constantly asking me if if he has any bald patches after hes brushed it. When his hair was longer I mean not shaved yes there were tiny areas where u could see the scalp like at the crown etc. Now hes shaved very short and u can see that he does not have as many hair follicles as other people.
If this is hereditary...I think it may be....Is there anything I can do to help make his hair thicker?
Should I take him to see a Hair Tricologist?
Thanx!

So you are considering hair implants?

There is nothing that he can do to increase the growth or thickness of hair other than cosmetic implants. At least nothing that I know of. And yes, genetic hair loss can cause early loss of hair in young men (often inherited from the female lineage).
