Is It Normal For A Hairline To Mature At 16

[Jamie s]

So I've posted a couple of times on here basically because I was certain I was balding everyone said my hairline was fine and it wasn't male pattern baldness yet. However a few people did say it was maturing which makes me equally terrified as I can notice my hairline has changed it is now slowly turning into a U shape mostly at the sides of the head.

I would really appreciate anyone's thoughts on my hairline and if I should be worried about it receding

Genetics: my dad and his entire family has a full head of hair (possible mature hairline)

Grandpa: slight hair thinning and basically nw1/5 hairline and that only became notable in his 50s

Pics: all me except one pic of my dad (not my room XD)

I was NW2 at 16, then in one year at 20 i went to a 3.5. You have some recrecession. Id recommend starting some treatment.

Ye I think that would probably be best do you have any recommendations? Also do you think it's possible to become completely bald based on my genetics? I'm not all that bothered about my hair I just don't want to be bald

Then why at 28 while doing steroids you still had hair on top? If you were that bad at 20 you would have been slick NW6 by 23. Can you explain please?

Fair enough, at least you seem to be getting some results now though.

You're a NW1.25 and 16, I doubt you have genetic hair loss. Don't do anything, see how it looks when you're 18

Based on my genetics do you thing I could get a really bad hairline young? My dad and all of his side have no hair loss (he's first pic) and my grandpa still has most of his hairat 61. I don't really care all that much as long as I am not basically bald

Do you think my hair could recede to look like my dads (first pic) to be honest I wouldn't mind that and his hairline hasn't changed in 16 years

Maybe. But nothing will happen as of now. If you on't mind receding in the future (if you do) then it might become like your pops. There's nothing to worry about for now though imo !

Update

I told my dad about the changes In my hairline and that I should possibly start some treatment. He said similar changes happened to his hairline at 15 and it has been pretty much the same ever since (he's 42 now) i think based on that I'm just gonna keep an eye on my hair for a year or two and if I experience further recision I'll look into medical treatment. Thank you to everyone who gave their opinion and advice

at 16 i was a perfect Norwood - 0 , but things can change fast !

Ye I think and hope it's just maturing a little my dad has a full head of hair and my grandpa only has mild thinning that would still pass for a full head of hair especially as he is in his 60s
