Hey guys here is an update of what my hairline looks like now vs 8-12 months ago. I know it's minor but I wanted to see what you guys think. Is this male pattern baldness or just a normal part of puberty (I'm 19). If I need to include any more angles or any other pictures please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Top View, to me it looks like the temples are now deeper and wider -

Left temple close up. I feel like this temple is worse and that the temple peaks seems to be thinner and less prominent now. -

Front view, I used a hat to pull the hair back in both pictures. It seems the temples have gotten wider and deeper, the front has thinned out a little, and the temple peaks are less prominent -

Styled hair. I know this one's minor and hard to notice a difference but I've noticed the temples used to be straight like this "l l" whereas now they are more angled like this "\ /". It also seems that some of the hair in the very front has thinned out (and unevenly too, which can be seen in the top view and front photos). -

I know it's minor but I have noticed some hair loss. Here's another example, my temple looks a little "deeper" and more receded now:

You took the pictures at different angles, lighting, even the way your holding your hair back is inconsistent. I would say that your hair is the same and if I could I would do some work in paint to prove it to you.

You're not balding so go live your life and don't obsess over your hair.

If you're really paranoid then monitor your hair with pictures but be more consistent with the pictures

Temples are definitely thinning; your hair looks good everywhere except for your temples and your widow's peak.

Yeah those areas, especially the temples, is where I've noticed the biggest changes. Although my widow's peak has been kind of thin even when I was in my mid teens, it's never been very strong.

Here are some pictures of before I noticed any of this hair loss, or right in the beginning of it. What do you guys think? Is it male pattern baldness?

Looks like the definition of a mature hairline. I would keep an eye on it if you notice any thinning on the crown or middle of your hairline then you should worry. Right now you're fine, but I wouldn't say you have 0 hairloss.

Just looks to be a slight maturing hairline, if even that, to me.

Dude you have a problem with BDD. Your hairline starts at your eyebrow how did you think you were balding?
The hair loss I noticed is near my temples. It used to be very forward and filled in but now it kind of indents near my temples.

lol, OP you actually have a little extra hair in the temple section you could lose. I d say you are a little over baseline for normal male hairline.
Lucky you OP. its time to stop being paranoid.

ps. if you had anymore hair than this, then the hairloss was an improvement!
