Persistent frontal forelocks with balding around it

What if it thins out, and it looks like the front part of the hair is forming an island? Not like noticeably, but just slightly looks like that when the light shines from the top and you take a picture? I don’t notice any unusual shedding, and I never find hairs on my pillow. I am blonde though, but I specifically bought dark black pillow cases for this and have been using them for about a year now. I never find any hair. The slight horseshoe/island hair pattern when taking pictures from the top is really the only thing that worries me. Is that just the normal pattern hair grows in, and that’s why I’m noticing it more now that my hair is thinning as normal?

Many men have persistent frontal forelocks (which is an island in the front of the hairline) but bald around it. These forelocks sometimes are family findings and in some men, they can be completely bald and keep these islands of hair (Forelock). When this happens, it can frame the face if the forelock is large enough.  If you are balding and have a good strong forelock, check your family history and see if the forelock lasted the lifetime of your bald dad or grandfather.  This is very important for any balding man, if they are lucky enough to have inherited this.
