Is My Hairline Receding? (pictures Inside)

[JohnAli]

Hello!
Alright, so back in mid 2014, I was thinking about getting a haircut in which the sides of my head would be shaved and the top would be slicked back. That's when I started getting super paranoid over my hair. I never noticed how big my forehead was, and never really noticed I had a widow's peak, either. I've had really long hair/bangs for as long as I can remember, so I didn't really have any pictures to look back in to assure myself my hairline wasn't receding. I did, however, find one picture from 2011 that assured me I've always had a huge forehead, so that was cool! Lol, anyways, 3 years later and I'm still paranoid about my hairline. Here are some pictures with time stamps, just so anyone willing to help can tell me what they think! (PS: Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures!)

I don't think so. Do you notice any hair shedding in sink, comb etc?

Yes, but not until just recently.
I went on a trip to California and dyed my hair. When I got back to New Jersey, I noticed a lot of hair falling out in the shower. Maybe it's been happening all this time, and I just never noticed, but I'm not sure. I'm always frantically counting how many hairs I lose every time I take a shower, and the most I've noticed (after not washing my hair for 3 days) was about 60 strands. I wasn't sure if it was due to maybe the drastic weather change, dying my hair, or maybe even because my scalp has been super dry since I got back. I was thinking about making another thread asking, but I'm not sure!

In tact male pattern baldness hairline, density looks great but your temples do look receded. Your best bet is getting a miniaturization check from a doctor.

Man you could have such a good haircut with that head of hair.. change the style man. Short back sides faded to medium long on top.

The bushy sides make it look bad

Also .. man bun ? Or slicked ? Come on dude dont be that guy

Lol, I never went outside with the man bun, and only did it when trying to take pictures of my forehead. I also never slicked it back, due to how big my forehead is. But yeah, I'm gonna hopefully have my hair grow out and let it look normal again.
