NORWOOD 3

At Norwood 3 Stage, the hair loss pattern is a deepening of the triangular or wedge-shaped pattern in the temporal areas (front corners) as seen in Norwood 2. Often referred to as a “widows peak”, the temporal areas (front corners) are barely covered or fully exposed with no hair growth in Norwood Stage 3.

Signs to look for:

• Early thinning of the crown
• Deepening wedge-shaped pattern in temporal areas

With Norwood 3 stage, Identifying changes early on and implementing a preventive hair loss treatment can stabilize or slow your hair loss.
