Yeah 2 parents with great genes does not mean a kid with good genes, just a higher chance for it.
This mature hairline bullshit needs to stop. He has male pattern baldness, just less brutal than cueballs.It's not a big mystery.
He had great hair well into his twenties, so his recession is super slow.
It's debatable if he even has male pattern baldness and not just a mature hairline given his genetics.
And yeah, he is a huge mega star. Of course he is taking finasteride.
He probably started at the first sign and maintained most of it and otherwise just recedes very slowly but naturally. If you can tolerate finasteride, this is called winning the game.
Besides, you can never really base your analysis on photoshoots or movies anyway. I recently tried out dermmatch and if it matches your hair color, it is undetectable in 99% of situations. You can bet that anytime he goes to any kind of public event, he will have his face and hair done professionally.
Well, then stop reading so much crap.
Men who maintain their hair don't come back to these forums often, if at all.
I am now close to being on it for a year and the stuff just works.
Look at people like Spencer Kobren or the people on the Belgrada before/after photos. It works, and it will work down the line. Why would it stop working?
Sorry but is the left temple 2.5 or the right?His hair is in bad shape and he does have male pattern baldness, DUPA type of pattern which is why he shaves his sides most times. Initially I thought that thin look just happened to people with finer hair who use gel since people with thicker hair don't show scalp, but it's beyond that. This type of thinning will attract attention no matter what but like you said he is good looking so gets away with it with an intact hairline too. Anything up to Norwood 2 (without recession) makes a positive difference. Leo on the other hand was just a mature hairline with full back and sides and all on top, very natural and nice.

Pure recession is far easier to deal with and maximum reward with surgery. Here a Norwood 2.5 returns to a non balding Norwood 2 hairline, even that deliberate conservative hairline gives a big improvement from the frontal view in person and with styling. The downside of recession is that it quickly takes away the looks of a person and obvious combovers or shave down are the only choices in the mean time. But like I said, recession guys can get a full head fast whereas diffusion is often a life long nightmare in terms of styling, lighting and treatment. It's way more unpredictable with treatments and aggressive unfortunately.

I call that anchorman recession or anchorman hair and losing that amount there is not cosmetically significant especially if all of the rest of the hair is still unaffected. Caprio can grow his hair long, like Pitt. Probably not many people on here who wouldn't trade with Leo in a second.Di caprio is not balding at all, he has the perfect hair and example of proper mature hairline. Experienced minor recession over his career which you can see from his younger photos. His hairline now is sharp and clean with that old-school slick back look. I'd say if you were to compare his and Brad's hair now Di Caprio would win.
