Is this common?

If you look at my pictures (check the my story board for my thread), you'll notice that my right temple has receeded a bit further than the left. Also, the hairline above the ear (but below the main temple recession) is further back than on my left side. To make things worse, I think I'm starting to see some regrowth on the left side (a few hairs have been popping up in the middle of the recession...possibly a good sign?), but the right temple has had fewer sprouts.

Anyone with this kind of problem too? I wouldn't mind my hairline if they were even and the same depth of recession as my left side, but the unevenness is making me wary of cutting my hair short.

Yes, very common. I have the same problem and have seen many posts on here detailing asymetrical hairloss. If you look closely at most guys losing their hair, you'll notice it. I once read on here that it has something to do with the way your hair grows, in a spiral around your head. If its clockwise, then the left side shows male pattern baldness first, if counter, the right. This is also why baldspots in the back usually start on one side before the other.
