How Fast Can a Mature Hairline Develop?

Hi,

I would firstly like to thankyou for your blog, i have found it extremely helpful. Recently i have noticed elevated hair loss accompanying a receding hairline. I am 20 years of age and therefore a little startled. It currently does not surpass your definition of a ‘mature’ hairline and i am hoping it will arrest soon. However it seems to have occurred very rapidly. In what sort of time scale does the ‘mature’ hairline tend to develop? and does it stop at a similarly prompt fashion?

Thanks very much

The appearance of the mature hairline may occur over a year or two, or it may take up to 10 years to complete. The key for genetic hair loss is to look for miniaturization beyond the confines of the juvenile hairline.
