Do I hide my hairline well?

[nickt93]

Hi guys, usual worries I guess. I'm 19 nearly 20 and already have a pretty bad hairline.. not sure if it's actually receding or just unfortunately high because since I became 'aware' of it when I was 16/17 I've noticed it in all my photos even from early teens.

Since it was pointed out to me I've been really conscious of it and have actually started cutting my own hair in a way specifically to hide it (which I think I've become quite good at, and 2 people have actually asked me if i'd cut their hair for them).

So my question is, do you think I hide it well? like, if you were to see me with my hair like I have it, would you know I had a bad hairline?

Thanks for any comments

You do a really good job! Mine is worse but I do a similar thing, except I grow my hair longer from the back and comb it across the receded area and spike it into a quiffy style at the front. My hairdresser cuts it for me and I do the styling.

I'm off for surgery in February so I don't have to keep doing this my whole life.

I think you are doing a great job and have obviously developed a skill. Keep up the good work.

good job. You should use your talent to earn money on the side why not?
