At 17 years old, I wouldn’t be surprised if what you’re seeing is a maturing hairline. Have you seen a doctor or are you just treating yourself with over the counter supplements? You might not be experiencing male pattern hair loss, but rather, the maturation of your hairline (a totally normal part of getting older […]

Most men who ask this question are in their teens and twenties who see slight recession of their frontal hairline. Yes, it may be a sign of early balding, but each and every patient is different and only time will tell. Sorry. The difference between early hairline thinning and hairline maturing can be difficult to […]
Thanks for allowing us to post your photos. Click them to enlarge. You shouldn’t worry about having more hair or less hair on left or right corners of the hairline. Many people have asymmetry, so what you’re seeing isn’t uncommon. With respect to hair loss, I cannot give you a diagnosis at this stage […]
Many of my patients have hairline transplants. Actually, the great majority of my patients that have hair transplants have hairline changes! I always caution the young men (under 25 years old) that many hairline changes occur with maturation of the hairline, which is often mistaken for early hair loss. The most important thing we need […]
You are doing exactly what Dr. O’Tar Norwood did many years back when he came up with his Norwood classification. You’re observing hairlines. The pictures you see in the Norwood chart is NOT a scale of hair loss progression, but rather it is observations of how men’s hair can be classified. The thing is, not […]
I believe that most of the readers would answer your question with a strong YES — people do notice. Today, I met with two men separately (20 and 25 years old). The 20 year old man still had his juvenile hairline, but there is evidence that one one side is moving to a mature hairline. […]
As long as you know what you want and have realistic expectations, there is no problem with having a juvenile hairline. The doctor should do their best to understand that you will not have further balding (remember, your donor hair is limited) and you would be willing to accept the Bill Clinton or Ronald Reagan […]
A juvenile hairline usually starts at the top of the frontalis muscle, which is usually seen with the top end of the forehead wrinkle.
On occasion, I have seen some men lose hair without going through miniaturization. This is more common in the process of developing a mature hairline, but anything is possible. At times, some vellus hairs remain in the frontal area where the juvenile hairline formerly was.
It does not quite work that way. Just because you stopped Propecia for one week does not mean it caused the loss of your frontal hair. I wouldn’t expect you to notice much loss in benefits from a week off the medication. Moreover, Propecia isn’t really as effective for treating frontal hair loss and works […]
The density has nothing to do with the harvesting method used, just the number of hairs per square mm that the grafts are placed in. Generally, depending upon hair/skin color and hair texture, the amount of hair needed to look full will reflect somewhere between 25-50% of your original density. One reason follicular unit extraction […]
Click here to see full size Thank you for allowing me to publish your photos. Just based on the photographs alone, it does not look like you are balding. What the photos show to me is a maturing hairline. You should get a miniaturization study to see how your hairs look under a microscope […]
I looked at the photo of Ian Watkins, but it’s difficult to tell from one angle like that. I then used Google to try to find more photos, but all of the ones I see have his hair longer and covering the hairline. So truth be told, from the photo you sent it looks like […]
I had to look up who this young man is (he’s in one of the Twilight movies), but it looks like he’s got a normal juvenile hairline, so a classification for hair loss does not apply. His rounded corners, which is typical of an immature hairline, has been lost in his recent photos but otherwise, […]
Your haircut didn’t contribute to your hairline changing. What it sounds like (without photos, I’m just making an assumption) is that your hairline is starting to mature. This is premature around your age, but it happens. Your new hairstyle might be contributing to your hair looking thinner on top, but I don’t know enough about […]
