    Default Going Bald or Widow Peak

    I am turning 21 yrs old this year. I've noticed more about my hair as i become older. I'm trying to figure out whether this is beginning of my baldness or just a widow peak. 2 of my older brother is balding with widow peak, while the other 1 still have quite thick head of hair on top.

    The two balding brothers are aged 25 and 38 yrs old i think

    The other one who's not balding(from my observation) is 31 years old.

    Seems like random luck with my family gene? Btw here's some picture

    You're still a Norwood one. There is probably only a little on the temple area. Other than that,
    you are in good shape.

    Does this mean that I'm starting balding or it's one of the "maturing hairline phase"? I think kind of always had pointed hairline in the middle, but I'm not sure that if I'm the both of the temple is receding, maybe i become more conscious about my body as i grow older. But maybe my hairline is actually receding

    Would it be better to start treatment now to (potentially) prevent it from going worse?
