Is this Normal? I Don't Know Who To Ask, My Corners are thinning at 19, almost 20.

[js0141094]

BUMP!!!

I am new here, and I am having a panicking moment, and I don't really know who to ask, but here this goes! Anyways, I am a 19, almost 20 year old guy, and I don't have a dad, so I don't really have anyone else to ask about this. I feel as if I've had some thinning going on around the corners of my hairline, and I wanted to know if it is, A(Normal) and B(If something should be done about it). Pictures are attached, and I hope somebody can help! It might just be the fact that I'm blonde, and my top of my head doesn't show any signs of thinning at all, just the corners, but the corners are really noticeable. If it helps, I lost 80 pounds in the past year, I don't know if that would have anything to do with it.

Here's my guess though I'm not an expert... As you said you're concerned about the temples... From the pictures you've provided, you right temple looks completely fine, so does your hair in the rest of the pictures... The only one that looks a little suspicious is the left temple in the picture that is third from the left above. It does look alittle thin but as you said you also have really light colored hair so it's alittle hard to tell. Overall your hair looks really good in those pictures, altho you see your hair everyday and live with it so if you think something is up then you'd be the best judge of that.

Hey what is this? Why was my comment deleted? This kind of censorship is beyond words.

OP, you're balding if you wanted to know. Looks like it's not OK to tell the truth? I mean, look at your hair: the hair is finer at the temples and shows recent receding in the close-up picture.

stop censoring comments. It's not helping anybody.

My hairline in the front is about 1/2 of an inch from the highest wrinkle, and the receding corners stop at about 1 inch to 1.2 inches from the highest wrinkle. Is this just a maturing hairline? I've always had a broad forehead, so it's not really that dramatic.

The photo's above were angled weirdly and I think exaggerated the problem.

I really don't care about not bleeping out my face. It's hair for God's sake.

Here are better photos. The one's above are crud.

Stop trolling the OP. He's receding/balding and it's completely normal. Of course it makes him sad but for God's sake don't lie to him.

Your hair looks like mine btw. Less than a year ago I still had the juvenile NW0 (low and round hairline). I can see that you're receding just like me. This sucks I know.

Are you sure it isn't just hairline maturation? All of my friends, family, and people that I know that are balding tell me I have really thick hair, and that I am just getting a maturing hairline. Here are more pictures. I don't notice any thin anywhere but up above the temples. and according to a lot of the charts I don't even have a Norwood 2 yet, which I a mature hairline. The reason why that thin temple looks thinner is because it I a cowlick. I just want to know, did "You'reAWizardHairy" get medical opinion? Also, lease just tell me. I really am stressing out. I turn 20 in a month.

Well. Tbh I'm only 19 myself but I swear I know about these things. I haven't seen a doctor to ask about my hair but I know it's receding. It may slow down and continue later too. There's no such thing as mature hairline. The ma[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]t[/FONT]ure hairline means you've inherited the male pattern baldness gene and will develop hair loss to a degree that is encoded in your genes.

I feel terrible knowing I'm most likely gonna get a bald spot/thinning on my crown in my thirties/forties but I guess I can live with that. Take a look at your family's males and the[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Tahoma, Calibri, Geneva, sans-serif]i[/FONT]r hairlines. Look at old photos of them and their hair. Chances are your hair is going to follow their/one of them's pattern or you may have been lucky/unlucky getting a hair that has its own pattern.

"Bad" news is that your hairline is receding. It may stop for n years or slow down dramatically or keep receding to a point you are NW5 (don't worry: highly unlikely judging by your pics ^^).

My family and barbers comment on my hair being thick too, always have. It doesn't mean you can't go bald. It plays no role in that. My dad has always had thick wavy locks but he's like NW3 now at 46. I also realized a year back that his hair has been thinning on top but his other hair masks it well. He was NW2 from 24 to 40 something but then genes kicked in again and hairline went further back and the crown started to thin. It sucked to realize he's losing it. His dad is NW3 (been last 20 years: was NW1or2 in 20s) and has started to thin on top at 70 now but God the hair is so thick you can't even see the scalp through all of it yet. My dad's got worse thinning than my grandpa! C'mon. I never knew I could go bald on top. Reality sucks. My hair density (amount of hair follicles on head) is inherited from my mom's side which is worse than my dad's yet I'm maybe following his hairloss pattern = NO jesus no I'm gonna be bald already in my 30s if tht's the case.

Sorry for long post. 2 pics of my hairline.
