How Far Does My Hairline Appear To Have Receaded?
Hair looks "fuller" in the second photo, but in terms of where the hairline is, I feel it hasn't moved much. That said, the first photo is not clear, so comparison isn't the easiest.
That said, it does look like your hairline is a little receded. Are you on an AA like finasteride?

No, im only 17 so i cant really mess with that stuff yet
Yea, i know it has moved back some just alittle based on older pictures like this one from 3 or 4 years ago, i was just woundering if it seemed like it stalled (knocks on wood)

Just take a couple pictures every 2 weeks and if it starts receding more then you can start Rogaine and Nizoral. Don't let it consume your life, it seems to have stalled and there are plenty of treatments you can use if it does move back further. All the best
Hi,
Your only 19 & this will be most hair you’ll ever have, unless you get a regimen.
You have a large forehead, & inevitably it will gradually start to recede. Not only hairline, but sides down to ears..You have lots of healthy hair, but being male... has its drawbacks... and this is one..
I have started to really up my regimen & for me the hardest hair to thicken is the hairline. But it doesn’t stop me from trying..I think in order to regrow lost hair, one has to reach a threshold of growth outweighing thinning factors. Like a plant in the soil won’t grow unless growth outweighs non growth factors.
No one has cracked the formula yet..
For me it may be deficiencies in growth factors.. Maybe I don’t have enough zinc sulfate or iron or lysine or tocotrienols.
I mention those because I’m supplenmenting. Due to medical studies..
Anyway your smart to start now in your study.
Thanks for the reply, as far as mr ears my density seems to be uneffected, my hairline seems to have just moved back. Ive seen that without defused thinning, which i dont seen to have because my crown and overall thickness is the same, it may not go to anything like nw7 but for it to start at this age i wont get my hopes up.

Its surely moving back. If you dont do anything now you will regret it.

I would've started finasteride at 14 when I first started balding had I known about it.. You are only 17, if you've stopped growing and your dick is at least average sized then I say consider finasteride.
Hope so, thinning or receding is a one hair at a time thing.. It’s gradual & deceptive, but it’s always doing something..

Relax and start with some basic maintenance if you don't want to step up to finasteride yet. Your goal right now should be maintenance. Would definitely recommend getting some Nizoral (or any shampoo that has either 1% or 2% ketoconazole) which can be purchased at Rite Aid etc.
Taking oral Saw Palmetto and Biotin (can be found at most health food stores) and staying the f*** away from creatine are also good until/unless you want to get on finasteride.

Yeah dude it’s receded I’d say Norwood 2 - 2.5. I just turned 18 and I’m dealing with hair loss at a young age. You can dm me to talk about it dude
