Need A Second Opinion Over Hair Recession

Hair loss runs in my mum's side of the family, grandad was bald early on, although that was accelerated by stress from a cot death, mum's brother (uncle) is bald and his son's were at 30. My dad however has pretty much a full head of hair at 65, he's starting to crown now with receding temples but I'd call that a good innings haha.

Basically I need some advice, I'm not worried about going bald later in life but if it's going to be a problem within the next 5 years or so I'd like to know when to take action. The photos 1576-2579 are me currently at 23, photos 1573-1575 are me at 18.

Your temples are not completely filled with hair but they weren't even at 18.
I would not sweat it ATM.

You see that's why I'm curious. They've always been receded to some level and I've had that widow's peak since I was a kid. I don't consider that a hairline of a 23 year old who is destined to maintain a full head of hair though. I guess it could be worse but I'll keep an eye on it!

One thing I will say is that it's more noticeable after washing it, I'm not really shedding more than a normal amount but the temple recession is obvious when it's not dry. Hair on my mother's side tends to be quite thick as well which can hide it.

could u take a picture of your hair like you are looking directly into the camera like a mugshot so i can see your hairline and give you an opinion?
