What Norwood Would I be? (pics)

who gets married at 25 lol.
sorry just makin fun of you but your hair looks alright to me, id say a Norwood 2 but you might suffer from the same problem i did, namely being born with a recessed hairline rather than a Norwood 0 which many men are born with.

I agree I think I have always suffered from a receding hairline, but I think it has gotten worse.

Take a look at any kid's hairline. No kid has a 1/4 to 1/2 inch hairline that shoots way back at the temples. Nobody is born like that.

to z one ,how thick is the hair in general ,if it is thick ,there's a chance it is only a mature hairline which could stay that way for the rest of your life,i hope this is the case.

Thats terrible advice. I have ungodly thick hair behind my "mature hairline," yet I have been professionally diagnosed with male pattern baldness.

And chances are high that he will continue to bald. It would be one thing if he was 45 years old and had that hairline, but at 25, chances are slim that it is just a mature hairline.

You look like a Norwood 2.5 that is set to go bald in the future. Look at the bottom portion of your temples. It seperates your old hairline from your new forming one.

What is everyone's problem? He has clear temple loss, and his overall hairline looks high on his forhead.

I hope this forum isn't going through another wave of pretending that nobody has hairloss when it is very obvious they suffer from male pattern baldness.

please, everyone, grab your glasses and notice that his actual hairline is about 1/2 of an inch wide.

So would you recommed that I start on rogain or would you also suggest waiting until it gets worse?

Here are my personal opinions. Rogaine for temples is worthless. For every temple regrowth story, I can site another 50 in which Rogaine had zero results.

I suggest dutas or at least finasteride along with nizoral shampoo.

Well, you have two viewpoints z-one... mine, and World of Warcraft's.

I stand by mine, I suppose you will have to make a decision as to which one is most valid.

By the way, here is the "Norwood Scale", and his pic.

Looks like an NW2, at worst, to me. With an NW3, the top corners of each temple come within striking distance of meeting each other, creating a frontal island. z-one is nowhere near that condition.

hairline is very receded and seems to me that density is low on top. You're NW2.5 and definitely balding.

I knew you would chime in with fresh truth. You are a wise man.

My hair is not that thick, but it was never really that thick.

Looks like you and The Gardener might disagree on the extent of my hair but it seems like you both agree that I should just use Nizoral and Propecia. So I am guessing that is the best bet for now.

NW2 looks lik it

When I was thirty I went to get my hair checked out and was diagonosed with a mature hair line. Throughout the years, I'm now
41, I have been tracking my hair and it appears I am now a NW2. Eleven years ago the hair treatmet Doctor told me to go home. So I have noticed little change from that evaluation and I am a man who blow gels and blow drys and flat irons the hell out of my hair. So I would say you do have a nw2. Thank God for thickness.
