Balding or receding?

[TheAussieET]

Hello, I am 15 years old with what you would probably call a Norwood 2 or 1 and a half. My hairline was always uneven and looked receded since I was 5. But recently my friends have been commenting about it, saying it has gotten worse. I haven't noticed anything majorly different about the shape, but it is starting to look thinner.

I hate to be the one to break it to you, but that’s pretty aggressive for 15. I’d say just use rogain until your 18, and then hop on finasteride, but your def receding

Ah ok. What makes it look like it's receding? Because I have always had a pretty big forehead, and my hairline was always similar to that. Also, most of my relatives have a full head of hair.

It looks like a Nw2 mature hairline, which is normal, but not really common for a 15 year old. I see some thinning in the front. I didn’t get a mature hairline until recently and I’m 26

Maybe use rogaine, and keep an eye on it for a few years. It doesn’t look bad at all bro your hair looks good
