Just a few close up pics of my hairline. You can see the hairs dying off. There is some diffuse thinning also in the temple area. My temple peak on my right side has also started to fade.
I wont be starting any treatment as I will learn to cope with it in my own way. It's good to be part of a community though.
Me at 16 with a lush full head of hair and my NW1

Me at 24 when I blew up in weight, For some reason it changed the shape of my hairline but It's still receding here

Now me at 28, You can see some diffuse in the hairline and I'm losing my temple peaks. It has receded quite a bit as of late. I would say I am now in NW3

I think this picture is great to compare my temples, This was taken when I was about 21 http://i.imgur.com/uil4qQo.jpg Me at 28 http://i.imgur.com/vK3VTnE.jpg
This is how I style my hair to hide the receding. If I try to have it spiked it is VERY noticeable. http://i.imgur.com/9btXKs2.jpg
I personally Don't feel the need to shave my head at the moment. I know to some of you It might look great but here is the catch. In my family there genetic switch is about 30 years of age. On one side they start to diffuse really quickly all over and on the other it's a receding hairline that goes right back. I will try and enjoy my hair as much as I can while I have it. I know my hair and it IS receding and it will speed up rapidly at 30. You cannot escape genetics.
My plan? To build my self esteem. Take up weightlifting again and get a nice tan to hide my pale skin. When it is to a point where it is noticeable even when trying to hide it OR if I diffuse heavily like my dad then I will just shave it and hope that m,y facial hair carries on getting thicker. What is against me is I have a babyface and a babyface does not look good bald lol.
