What's my norwood level approx.? 23 year old

[canuhandleit]

I took 10 pictures, as I'm not really sure what will really help.

One is January 2008 to serve as a baseline, it's a terrible pic but it's all I have that displays it.

Can anyone take a guess for my norwood level?

Aside from this, I have no loss anywhere aside from the recession as far as I can tell. In fact, I have never received more compliments on my hair (which makes it suck that much more).

Thanks in advance! Let me know if you need more pics...


January 2008 (the same hairline I had at 15 so this is before any receding took place):

Hey ravegrover,

I figured I would get a response like that. I think today, my hair looks great. But I also know that it's receded in the past 2 years and as you can see, it's no longer the straight hairline I've sported up til April 2011 when I first noticed it being a bit sparse. So while it may be good today... how long is that the case? And what norwood would this be? 1.5? 2? I imagine it's not yet a 2 fully.

My mothers side is full of baldies. My fathers side is full of norwood 3/4/5, my dad is like a NW4A and had what looked like a receding hairline at his wedding at 27. So his has been incredibly slow.

I'm curious as if I'll be as lucky as my father.

Any estimates on a Norwood level? I figure if I have an idea... I can get off these forums for a few months and wait to see if anything new comes out... doubt it, but ya.

Not looking to take fin, bro. I have taken it for 3 months in the past, did not like. And my doctor and gf (who is a med student) have advised against it.

Just looking for a norwood estimate.
