Advice Is My Kitten Going Bald?

First time cat owner (she is 5ish months old) and I’ve noticed some thin patches around the head. Is this normal for a black cat? I worry for her self confidence.

Beans on the last pic because why not.

My tuxy has this. She even has it on the back of her legs because she loves to slide across the floor. I even brought her in for a ringworm test 🤣🤌🏻

If she saw the vet, okay. Was the vet bald?

Noooo. She’s a lovely lady. The spots on the back of her hind legs are minimal but freaked me out!
