Europe Has the World’s Highest Male Hair Loss Rates

The countries where men are most likely to lose their hair are overwhelmingly in Europe.

On the other hand, the countries where men are least likely to lose their hair are overwhelmingly in Asia.

This is based on data from a 2023 survey conducted by Medihair.

It maps 47 countries by male hair loss prevalence as a percentage and ranks Spain, Italy, and France at the top.

Spain leads all 47 countries with 44.50% of its male population experiencing hair loss, followed by Italy (44.37%) and France (44.25%).
Fourteen of the top 20 countries in the global ranking are European, while Southeast Asian nations dominate the bottom of the list.
Every country in the dataset has at least 26.96% male hair-loss prevalence, meaning no national population is immune to the condition.

Mexico and Saudi Arabia share an identical rate of 39.75%, placing them jointly 14th.

Two countries with entirely different genetic profiles (one shaped by Indigenous and Spanish heritage, the other by Arab lineage).

Produce the same hair-loss prevalence figure via completely different biological pathways.

It is the only exact tie and its most structurally surprising pairing.
