    Your crown is your biggest problem. Sorry.

    Going to have to say between a Norwood 1 and two.

    In general, the hairline should be the same distance from top of nose, as nostrils to your chin. If that's the case, then your hairline is in good shape.

    I'm young too. Been on Propecia for almost 3 years. So far so good. What can I say.. I'm a statistic person. I'll take the 1/20 chance.

    But yea.. looks like down the road you'll need 1 FUE procedure on your crown.

    Crown needs attention massage with every thing else you are doing

    It's not that aggressive. I was actually worse at your age. Minoxidil alone, twice a day, should probably be all you need.

    If you decide on Finasteride, which has better results, you can cut it in half. I would start at a low dosage.

    In fact, when I look at your hair, I'm not one hundred percent convinced you are at a Norwood one (or lower).
