Norwooding (used in the incelosphere) or balding is the process of losing one's hair. The term "norwooding" derives from the Hamilton-Norwood scale, or short Norwood scale, which is used for measuring the different stages of male pattern baldness. A Norwood 1 means there is no hair loss, with a Norwood 7 being the most advanced stage. Most young adult men have a Norwood 1 hairline, and anything beyond a Norwood 2 is exponentially worse. "Norwood 0" is used to mean a man with an unusually low hairline, and was not part of the original Hamilton-Norwood scale. A balding man is said to be "Norwooding".
