Okay, so I recently cut off my long hair and lately I have been paying a lot of attention to my hairline. I've always had a big forehead since I was a kid and very thin hair. But I'm not sure if what I'm seeing is balding or just a hairline that some men have. Hopefully the smart doctors here can fill me in

Answer: Balding or big forehead? Without an in-person exam, it is difficult to say. Cutting the hair shorter will definitely make the hair look thinner and appear as though there is less hair "mass." That being said, family history regarding hair loss can also be helpful. Finally, it is important to recognize that an adolescent male hairline is not the same as an adult male hairline, and some degree of frontal and temporal recession is normal and age-appropriate. A consultation with a fellowship-trained hair restoration surgeon would be helpful. All the best,

Answer: If you cut your hair short, it may look thinner. If you cut your hair short, it may look thinner. This is just common sense, right? If you always had thin hair and a high forehead, it would look worse with a shorter hair cut, right? If you believe you are balding, you should see a doctor for an examination.
