The most common form of baldness is a progressive hair thinning condition called androgenic alopecia or "male pattern baldness" that occurs in adult males and females and even in other species. 

The baldness at men
Truth is that many men see themselves as disgusting and old when they start shedding their hair and they first signs of baldness appear.
Apart from the socio-psychological aspects, having hair and NOT being bald, means a lot for the most males.
The male-pattern baldness is characterized by hair receding from the lateral sides of the forehead, known as "receding hairline".
Because the severity and nature of baldness can vary greatly, alopecia androgenetica is classified on the Hamilton-Norwood scale I-VII.
This scale was first introduced by Dr. James Hamilton in the 1950's and later revised and updated by Dr. O'Tar Norwood in the 1970's and it represents graphically the male-pattern baldness pattern so anyone can easily classify its status.
Observe the Hamilton-Norwood O'Tar scale and read more about the significance of each phase. On baldness scale Norwood Hamilton scale for men you can find a detailed schematic of the Hamilton baldness scale.

The baldness at women
Women, on the other hand, present a different balding patter.
The degree of the receding hair line is measured on the Ludwig scale.
The female-pattern balding has a different hair shedding model.
See the Ludwig scale and read more about the significance of each phase.

Incidence of pattern baldness varies from population to population based on genetic background. Environmental factors do not seem to affect this type of baldness greatly but there are other factors that can influence the degree and speed of the hair fall.
On female pattern balding scale Ludwig baldness scale for women you can find more details anout the Ludwig baldness scale.

However, for both sexes, the main cause of baldness or alopecia androgenetica in both men and women, is the same.Read more about what causes baldness here.
