I don't even know what to do anymore. Some days I think it looks fine, and some days I feel like it looks atrocious. I haven't gotten a haircut since March, but I feel like my hair looked fine then, and it was shorter. Maybe a haircut will make it look a lot better? Here is was: http://imgur.com/a/1Erkw

The rest of these pictures are from the last ten days: http://imgur.com/a/81C6g
In some of those it looks really thick,

and then there's today: http://imgur.com/a/8RknK
and it doesn't look bad to me. I feel like it changes every time I look at it though. And here's a few more from today.. sorry for all the pictures. http://imgur.com/a/uMHov

I'm taking finasteride, using Rogaine twice a day, using Accutane and I'm 22.
So I guess my questions are:
How bad does it look?
Is Accutane affecting it?
Do haircuts make it look better? Maybe it hasn't really gotten worse?
Do I have a chance?

Even someone like this doesn't look bad to me: https://www.gourmetstylewellness.com/interact/threads/what-norwood-am-i.99976/ and my hairline isn't shaped like that

It's called male pattern baldness, and you have it.

Not accutane related at all.

It's male pattern baldness and you are in the beggining stages. the entire hairline is creeping back and you are developing a NW2


Nothing more to it. early stages.

Take finasteride or bald

I am only 20 and you are 100x better off than I am. You are only at the beginning stages of a receding hairline, don't sweat it too much. The only people that would notice it are the people are are balding and know what to look for. The average person would not consider you balding. One of accutane's potential side effects is hairloss; however, I doubt you are affected by this side effect because your recession pattern is extremely typical for male pattern baldness. If you want to stop the receding hairline then look into finasteride. Make sure you do your research on the drug before going to a doctor for a prescription.

take finasteride, use nizoral shampoo and if you respond you'll maintain what you have for years. looks fine.
