17 years old male. Am I going bald?

[lelma]

Hey guys. I am a 17 year old male. As far as I can remember I have had a high hairline for all of my years till now. However, I shaved my head. Is this my original hairline or is it a maturing hairline or is it just a round hairline or is my hairline receding? I am confused... My father is nearing fifty and is a Norwood 5. He started balding at the age of 37 and so did my grandfather(my dad's side.). No one from my mom's side is bald however. I have also attached a few pictures. Please help guys! I'm freaking out right now..... BTW, the one that has a little more hair was last year's when I had a buzz cut. And the longer hair ones are from months after it, and approximately 4 months before today. My parents think there's nothing wrong with me and that I am freaking out. Please answer guyus. Thanks for the support.

Also, I must add that I do not experience itching or do not experience any kind of actual hair fall.... The most recent ones are also attached and they are 3 weeks after the shave.

ur photos are saying u r not balding.but photos always don't tell full story.miniaturization test can only tell u whether u r balding or not at this point.

I don't see any balding in those pics. What I do see is a guy that has the balls to shave his head. Good work.

Is it a Mature hairline then? Which NW stage would you put me in guys?

It looks exactly like you had Scalp micro pigmentation done when you shaved your head.. soon my head will look just like yours.

No it doesn't look like you're balding though.. the Crown area looks a little thin in this picture though: https://www.baldtruthtalk.com/attach...9&d=1424951814\

shave your head and take a picture of the crown area.. then you'll be able to tell if its thinning there..

but if you do eventually go bald I wouldn't worry about it because it looks like you have a pretty good head shape for a shaven head... and you can always just get scalp micro pigmentation done..

0Kly,

I am 100% sure I don't have thinning in the crown area. It looks like that because of the lighting. I can assure you that the crown is great, thank god! However, my only worry is my hairline and temples, which looking at your comments prompt me to think it is okay.... The hairline looks weird in some angles though, and that creeped me out.... Are the temples at the same place as they were last year? Btw which NW am I?

I hope you understand that the shaved pics and the first three are recent ... the 8th pic is from last year...the last three are from 4 months back before I shaved it all off.....

Hair lines come in different shapes.. yours looks normal shaved. if you're losing hair you'll know..

You can try to rub/scratch your hair/head over a white sheet of paper or table and see how many hairs fall out... If there's any with a little white bulb attached to the end of it then you may be losing hair

0 hairs fall.

Get a grip man, you're fine!

0 hairs fall.

By looking at the pictures of your hair, you are a NW1 and show no signs of hair loss.

Thanks guys pleas keep any more opinions coming

What could be my preventive measures? Also it really nw1 and I don't have to worry? Should I start fin as a preventive measure? I already got ketoconazole shampoo to use. Am I good with the hair as of now?
