TBH I think it's kind of irrelevant what anyone else dreams of. If you're noticing your hair line changing, there's a possibility it's going to continue into some form of substantial hairloss. It may also stop as mine did when I reached 21. Your options at this point are to monitor it carefully over a couple of months and reassess or go to a dermatologist now and check for signs of miniaturization. In the event that you were experiencing a form of hairloss you'd be able to get onto a treatment early and maintain all that you have now for probably the next decade.
I'd be a bit on the fence about it now too. But if your hair means as much to you as mine does, I'd be at that dermatologist asap just in case. Good luck man
Hello! I'm back at the age of 22, I still check on the imgur graph I made for this forum. I believe my paranoia derived from my hairline receding into a mature hairline, and my insecurities came from feeling the smooth areas of where my juvenile hairline was, plus being used to taking/seeing photos in flattering lighting and angles. You can see when I was 17 in the original post it was starting to curve into a mature hairline, similar to my fathers who seems to follow the same pattern. Considering both my grandfathers had full heads of hair.
Anyhow, when i was 21 I had some fun and shaved all my hair off, for funsies. I ended up really enjoying it and kept the look for a while, before realising my hair isn't really going anywhere and grew it back for a bit.

I think it's going into a Leo hairline or whatever. But at this point i had such positive feedback to being bald. (I've shaved it shorter than the photos provided. I even played a cruel joke on my girlfriend on valentines 2017 by shaving just the front off first and taking a photo saying "happy valentines day." ). At this point i'm quite comfortable with losing the hair. It was quite a good idea to buzz it off and keep it incredibly short for a while. It stops being a problem and you grow comfortable without it, aesthetics aside.
Either way, I thought i'd report in and say yes, my hairline had matured, or if it is receded, it's slowed down now. It's also worth mentioning for people in a similar position that not only does a maturing hairline scare you into thinking its all going off, but sometimes it can be just down to taking flattering angles of yourself, and then seeing unflattering photos and being quite scared into thinking it's all happening now. When in reality you just got used to yourself being so perfect from one angle/lighting hahaha.
Ooh also Co-Ops cctv cameras, seeing the back of your head on one of them high contrast cameras on the screens made me think i had a massive bald spot, when in reality it was just my crown. l o l
Thanks for dealing with me the last couple years by the way!
Hope you're all enjoying the summer.
