Your results are terrific by your own description; however, at your age the pull of the balding process will be great, so the minoxidil and the Propecia you just started on may not hold the hair there forever (particularly lower than a mature hairline).

I took a look at the few photos you sent, and while they were poor quality photos, I didn’t see any hair loss. A maturing hairline could be what you’re worried about, but that is not considered treatable balding. Isotretinoin (Accutane) is known to cause hair loss in some, but having your hairline mature is […]
I don’t know the answer to your question, as I have not prescribed Propecia to anyone with just a maturing hairline. I would doubt that Propecia will reverse you back to a juvenile hairline, if that is what you’re looking for it to do.
First, you need to be evaluated by an expert in hair. You can try to quantify the degree of thinning by measuring hair bulk throughout your scalp to see if there are components of genetic hair loss present. Yes, you are right, people can damage their hair from aggressive styling (extreme form is traction alopecia […]
If you believe you are losing hair on your temple area, you may have a component of genetic balding. I am not sure that dicing out the semantics of descriptive terms will help in diagnosing a condition. Leading edge just means the frontal edge of your hairline. Send us pictures and with your eyebrows lifted […]
Click the photos to enlarge: We’ve been getting a lot of emails like this from teenagers asking about their hair loss. I’ll do my best to answer some of them here, but for everyone else, post your photos to BaldingForum.com, and you can get feedback from other members of the site. Keep in mind […]
Thanks for allowing us to publish your photos. I didn’t use all of them, but I think our readers will get the idea. Click them to enlarge. Some men do not bald symmetrically, and in your case, that seems to be what is happening. The left side appears to be a mature hairline and […]
Good questions. A transition zone is present in everyone… that is, unless there is recession associated with balding. Generally, the transition zone has from 0.5-1cm one-hair follicular units and behind this zone the appearance of two-haired follicular units start showing up. In the very front of the transition zone is a layer of vellus hairs. […]
There is an art and a science for placing hairlines. The normal midpoint of a mature male hairline lies 1.5-2cm above the highest crease of the furrowed brow. If you go to a mirror and lift your brow, you will see two things: Where the hairline was when you were 8 years old (it hugs […]
Have you read our post about the mature hairline? A good doctor will tell you the answer to your question. Tests for miniaturization and bulk measurements will tell you if you have genetic male patterned baldness. These are done in the doctor’s office.
Many men have hairline corner recession and that is the extent of their hair loss. Only about 8% of the male population go on to become a Norwood class 6 or 7. If you are concerned about corner recession and do not have further hair loss, a hair transplant may be an option. If you […]
I think we’ve been getting more and more of these really poor quality photos asking for a diagnosis lately. For the readers that want to send us photos, the images should be clear and have decent lighting. So while I can’t really tell much about your hair loss (if any) from these pictures, I think […]
I cannot say if you are receding or if you are balding, but based on the photo you sent it looks like you have a Norwood 3 pattern. For certainty, send me a picture with your eyebrows lifted so that I can measure the distance from the highest crease. The V shape hairline that you […]
Arnold probably does not have the genes for balding. It’s simple. I don’t know that his hairline really moved all that far back. I’ve seen some photos from his younger bodybuilding days with a similar hairline to what he has now. His hairstyle back then seems to be hiding the corners, making it difficult to […]
You must understand some basic facts: Propecia does not work that well for regrowing a frontal hairline and I wouldn’t expect it to do much at all for a maturing hairline. It is mainly used for the top crown area. Propecia should not be taken for precautionary measures. You take Propecia because you have a […]
