That sucks, KMD. My hair seems to like coming out in clumps of 10 strands at a time. I'm not getting a bald patch that I have noticed, but the ponytail keeps getting thinner and thinner...
How's your diet? Do you take a multi-vitamin? A Biotin supplement may help as well. Staying healthy might slow down things a little but if genes say you're going to be bald, unfortunately, I don't think there's much to be done about it.
Try to be gentle to your hair, but I don't think you need to completely swear off dye and styling products. Enjoy what you've got while you've got it!
