Is it really that bad?

Started fin = Nov 2nd, 2012
Started minox & Nizoral = Jan 1st, 2012

I was happy with the results before. The hairs have thickened up and what not. It's weird, when I look in the mirror I feel great and looks great when seeing myself. However, mirror/reversed pictures of the hair just makes me want to hurl. Anybody else feel this way?


Right after the shower, and applying minox foam


Tried my best to get some of the vellous hairs. Adjusting the brightness of your screen kinda helps show them. I just really hate this picture, because it shows the lack of density and thickness, and you can basically see through the scalp.




Hair dried up after a few hours



This picture is important. If you compare this picture to the last picture, the pattern of receding is really different. The right side shows a sharp acute angle where it's receding. Even looking at the side burn hairline, you can see it's quite sharp, whereas above, it looks like a potato.

Pictures before the haircut...






In this picture, you can see, if you look hard enough, that between the patch and the mid-scalp the bridge is back to breaking up again. I realized I should've taken a picture of the bridge with the new cut - damn


Crown, combed to the side




I'd like to get somebody's personal opinion - this is just a normal swirl/cowlick right, just a tad bit wider though compared to normal, right? I mean this isn't an official bald spot like how most men get behind their head, is it?

You have temple recession but a lot of density in the remaining hair. I don't think it looks bad at all.
