Right temple is receding far quicker than the other. Can’t understand why my left looks so solid and my right doesn’t? Depressing as f*** because I was doing so well not coming on here and forgetting about my hair loss

I’m horrible at telling Norwood’s so I cannot say. To me I would say it’s the slightest bit receded in the temples but for all I know your hairline could be perfectly natural.

1. Hairline looks the same or extremely minor difference then from a year ago (good sign)

2. If you’re worried go to a dermatologist or doctor who specialises in hairloss to see if they think you are thinning in the hairline, look at reviews online before you see them.

The difference in the picture is way too minor to be significant. You look to be about a Norwood 2. Just monitor it. If it looks noticeably and significantly worse, then only should you consider treatments. Just keep monitoring.

One temple is slightly beyond a NW1 but overall, you are still considered a NW1.

Doesn't his hairlne have an m-shape look to it though? He looks like a Norwood 2 to me. His hairline isn't particularly straight. Doesn't mean he's balding, just that he's a Norwood 2. His hairline might be "mature."

You need to check out alot of hair transplant cases from doctors online. They give good examples of Norwood levels. They tend to label NW2's more loss than this guy. His one temple is definitely approaching a mature hairline so you can say he is between a NW1 and 2. You are closer to a NW1.

Wanna trade? Your cursed hairline with my actual alopecia suffering bald scalp. I swear as long as you people keep crying like that over problems you don’t have, we are going to be stuck with finasteride and minoxidil for ever. Your temples are the same, your hairline is maturing, you are raising your eyebrows in the before pic for Christ sake.
