Cowlick or balding? (pics)

[fost5]

I never noticed this until today, but it definitely looks like I'm losing my hair in the back. Anyone have any thoughts?

It looks fine. The 1st pic looked like either a cow lick or early stages of maybe male pattern baldness. I recommend going easy on products. No hair die and avoid gels or spray. Enjoy hair but, it won't last. Read Tolle bro.

It doesnt look too bad yet. I would just keep a eye on it in the upcomming months. If it gets any worse, then its time for minoxidil or finasteride.

Thanks for advice. I think I am going to go ahead and start finasteride in a couple of days. I'm fine with my hair's current state so I think I'd like to start using finasteride sooner than later in the hopes that I can prevent futher hair loss.

I really think you are in good shape for now, you might want to just keep an eye on it for at least six months before you jump on meds.
