Ski Helmet Balding

So over the course of the season I've noticed that may hairline at the corners has been moving back, and the hair on top has been thinning (more scalp visible thru hairs). Obviously, this is male pattern baldness, but do you think that wearing my helmet w/ my hair pushed back over the course of my 100+ day season has any additional role? I theorize crashing with my hair in that position could rip some hairs out, but I've never noticed significant pain/bleeding... thoughts?

I'm pretty sure being bald gives you more steeze. TWall, Shea Flynn, and Krypto Skier are all bald guys

y'all got no manners, show some respect to the king

OP iirc hats causing baldness is somewhat a myth unless it's super tight. is your helmet super tight? when i asked a doctor about it they made it sound like it'd have to be ridiculously tight

I feel like wearing beanies all the time does this. I have long hair and it will fall in my face if I don’t have one on and I’m not looking like a tool and putting into a bun or whatever. Cause I got a beanie or hat on like 80% of my waking hours
