Your hairline looks in between Nor 1 and Nor 2. Your picture are unclear though and you may have thinning in the range/pattern of a Nor 4 or 5 if it advances.

Hi sir,

Your hairline is in a good shape. In my opinion you have great hair for a 33 years old man! If you want a better opinion, you should take more picture with more light.

Cheers.

Hello guys,

Thanks for the answers.

I took more pictures with better lighting.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Cheers,

You are a NW 1 if that. It's hard to say that you have any real hair loss. It's normal to have temple recession in a male. Otherwise, you are a female. At this point, you are more worried than you should be because you very well might be a NW 0. Most with significant hair loss would die to have your hair. I know this is not reassuring, but I really don't think at this point you have anything to worry about. You certainly don't need a hair transplant.

The best thing you can do is a cross-sectional trichometry in the donor area and compare it to the top, crown, and front to see if there is any fall off. If not, these areas are sound and don't need treatment. Look for any miniaturization on the hairline. If you don't have this, you don't have a frontal hairline loss at this time. I certainly don't see any of this miniaturization in your photos.
