I have a widow's peak and an extremely uneven hairline (I'm only 21). Any suggestions how to fix? (photo)

Question

I've had this hairline for as long as I can remember but now I want to see if I can do something about it. My widow's peak is uneven too. Is there a reason for this? Can I fix it somehow?

Matthew Richardson, MD · Answer

A widow's peak or an uneven hairline can be corrected with a hair transplant procedure.  A new, more even hairline can be mapped out and created by using grafts from the back of the head.  A very natural look can be achieved with a hair transplant.  Keep in mind that a natural hairline has irregularity and is not a straight line.  I would recommend speaking with a hair expert to discuss all of your options.  All the best,

If you are happy with the overall height of your hairline, most surgeons would suggest hair transplants to even it out.  Of course, making a hairline that goes straight across is not natural either.

You can change the shape of your hairline and "even out" the hairline with a hair transplant procedure.  You should contact a doctor for a consultation.

Bryan Rolfes, MD · Answer

Female hairlines tend to be more irregular than those of males, and widow's peaks are common in women.  If your main goal is to even out your hairline I would recommend hair grafts.  It will take a while (many months) until the grafts are long enough to make a visible difference, but I think your hairline is already feminine and that delay is worth not having to deal with the hairline advancement scar.  If you want to significantly lower your hairline then a surgical hairline advancement may be another option.  You can even out a hairline with this procedure as well.  My guess, though, form looking at the limited photo would be that you don't need a significant hairline lowering and hair grafts would be your best option.  -Dr. Rolfes

I wish I could see your entire face; I can see the top of one eyebrow.My suggestion would be to leave your hairline alone. The attached video demonstrates how I can lower and change an "uneven hairline" but your forehead does not look high or long. Your uneven hairline is unique and distinctive. Hope this helps

I am assuming that you are a female with high uneven hairline. This is best treated with hair transplants to even up and lower the central part of the hairline
