16 years old, just visited a well known Tricho today. He examanied my hairline etc and told me that this is completely natural. He says as I have grown, my skull developing has caused a "natural recession" effect in the corner of hairline. He said my hairline won't change for a long time unless I encounter balding later in life.

What do you guys think? I'm still concerened it just doesn't look right to me but idk.

You have to look at family to be sure.

I had a BF in college who had a hairline like yours...I honestly was shocked when i saw him recently almost 20 years later and its same exact hair line..I had really thought ti was receding at the time i went out with him> we never discussed and and i never met his Father.
So it could be look at parents if you can.

trichologists are'nt qualified doctors, I don't think there is any standard behind what constitutes a trichologist. Your hairline looks okay to me though, keep an eye on it though

What if he had a very good hair transplant? ;)
The same thing happened to me when an ex colleague of mine saw me a few years after I quit the company were we had worked together.
He said: "I was convinced I would see you bald! Lucky you!" (He had always been NW5)
I did not tell him about my hair transplant :)

I doubt it but anything is possible.

Since you're 16, it could be the transition from juvenile to mature hairline. See a hair transplant doctor and have him inspect your scalp with a scope. They can figure it out based on percentage of hair in anagen/telogen and any miniaturisation.
Fortunately for me I can just look like at my horse shoe lightening.

Dont even need to see a doctor! it's right in-front me :D
