Can see scalp when hair is wet but looks normal when dry ?

Am I just being paranoid or am I going bald, can't seem to remember if my hair was like this??.

Thanks for any help

It's hard to tell from those photos. My gut says that you're totally fine, particularly based on the dry photo. It's common for many men to experience what you're experiencing when their hair is wet - and I think your dark hair/light skin contrast is probably contributing to the look you're seeing. The hair in your dry photo looks so solid though that I personally wouldn't worry. Keep an eye on it once a month or so and see if you see a difference.

That said - one way I examine my hair is by using my hands. My crown is slightly thinner than the rest of my hair, but it's not noticeable just by looking at it. However, when I run my fingers through my hair, I can literally feel the difference between the density in the front part of my hair and the density in my crown.
