Default Am I balding?

Hi, two months ago I went to a hair transplant clinic and there they evaluated my hair with a miniaturization test. The doctor from the clinic after checking with the microscope told me that Im not losing my hair and that I dont have any significant miniaturization. She told me that I have fine genetically fine hair and thats true as long as I remember Ive always had fine hair. So I went for another opinion and I got evaluated with another doctor from the same clinic and he ran again another miniaturization test on my scalp and told me that Im not balding, and that my hair is fine and that I dont have anyhting to worry about. What I dont understand is why when I take pictures of my hair with light and my hair completely wet and combed backwards and with some lighting it shows some scalp. Here are some pics. Am I balding?, im confused :S. Is it normal to show scalp with wet hair?. That cowlick that forms at the back of my head Ive always had it since I was a child

Your hair just looks thin. Keep an eye on it by taking photos and just evaluate it every few months. If you're noticing something now then it COULD be that you've lost enough to notice.

It is normal to see scalp when parting your hair and when it's wet.
