Am I balding, or is this my mature hairline? I am 20 years old. (Photos)

Asked By:bigelow16 in Ohio, OH

My hairline has always been about where it’s at since I can remember. I just now started noticing how it seems I’m receding. My dad and his father are bald, and on my moms side her father has a full head of hair but one of her brothers is bald. I’m very depressed lately thinking about this, I notice that I have small hairs around my hairline, and I know that could be a sign of balding. If I am, what can be done?
