Here's the deal- I've had an M shaped hairline for as long as I can remember. Probably since puberty. My forehead is also abnormally big...my mother had to have a C-section because my head was so big as a baby.
I know these sound like typical excuses, but probably since age 20 or 21 I noticed that my M shaped hairline went back pretty far. I don't have any male pattern baldness in the family as far as I know, so I wasn't worried. I remember asking my usually haircutter if I was going bald and she said probably not. I kept an eye on it and it never seemed to go any farther back. My hair is also very thick naturally, so thick that my haircutter usually comments on how troublesome it is to cut it.
I'm 26 now and I was recently thinking about getting a buzzcut since I usually wear my hair very shaggy (looks better on my big head). I was trying to imagine what a buzz would look like with my hairline and I got to really examining my hairline. It doesn't SEEM any farther back than 5 years ago but I can't say for sure...all I know is that comparing it to other receding hairlines on the internet, mine looks right at home.
I do not have any hairline pictures from back then but I do have some pictures from about 2 years ago that show my hairline being more or less this far back. Is it likely my hair just receded during puberty and that's how it will stay, or is it perhaps very very slowly moving backwards?
