Poll: would you rather have crown or hairline loss?

[thechevyman122]

So I'm kind of curious, if everyone hear could choose, what would it be?

Post the kind of Loss you would rather have (have to choose one) and what kind of loss you are experiencing.

My gut tells me most will choose the opposite, if only experiencing one.

Crown loss for me and it isn't even close. Crown loss responds better to treatments and you can conceal it easier that hair line loss. Unfortunately I have both.

it seems like crown loss is considered less severe and there are better treatments for it. It's also not terribly hard to hide if it's less severe
In a weird way I'm glad I almost exclusively have crown loss.

I have both but I'd pick crown loss over my hairline.

hairline frame your face and makes you look "normal", while crown loss is "just" a hole in your hair, so i would pick crown

Exactly.

Temple recession easily.

Must have a very low hair line with plenty to spare.

A receding hairline means that all your hair is still 'connected' as opposed to a balding crown. I would much rather have a receding hairline, and that is what I have/had (on the big3)

I prefer hairline receding coz it normally takes longer for someone to notice that you are bald.
Unlike crown loss, one can easily spot your bald spot

Try this:

Shave off your temple hairs to an NW3 pattern and push back your hairline about 1-2cm, thereby elongating your forehead. Then go try to pick up women. You'll be begging for crown loss.

My hairline has only just started thinning, but it's pain in the ***. I'm so worried somebody is going to notice it. Especially since the middle of my hairline is thinning as well, which I thought was supposed to be more resistant to DHT then the temples. Anybody else thinned this way? Is it the type A pattern on the norwood scale?
