Hair Loss

I've been in my weight loss journey for 6 months. I am happy to say that I have lost 26kgs so far, my old clothes fit really well and I am looking forward to continue working on my physique. But, I've started to notice that the front of my hairline was becoming a bit transparent, like I could see the scalp more and more in pictures and when I looked myself in the mirror.

Yes I know hair loss can be natural and you can only take medications (consistently - with side effects) to slow it down. I realised that when I was 17, 18 my hair was thinning a little bit but the rate of that happening was slow and now (I'm 20) I can see my scalp if the light reflects off of it. I get the feeling that this isn't actually my time to be balding lol because my dad has good hair in his 40s and my grandpa (maternal) had decent hair but you know a 70yo's hairline. My hairline is actually the same which makes me think that it could be something linked to sleep / nutrition.

So the question I'd like to ask is when you guys were in your journey did you notice any hair loss similar to what I've explained, if there was could you describe your calorie deficit and protein intake? Your hairline is fine but you're shedding hairs whenever you comb (on your bed, floor, table like 2-3 strands not a lot lol). I would've made an appointment with a hair specialist but I'm scared that are just going to try to sell me a product rather than genuinely help me find what the actual problem is, and my GP won't really help that much.

Thank you in advance.
