I hate to determine without full frontal pics. Kinda looks more like it's receeded a tad, but like I said, hard to tell w/o better pics.

Receded in a MBP way or mature hairline way. Though i do think i shaved off a little more than necessary in the miniaturized part.

Norwoodscale,

 

If I remember correctly, you're in your early 20s? I think at this stage (and based off the pictures you posted), it's difficult to tell whether you're experiencing a matured hairline or the beginning stages of male pattern baldness. Why don't you consult (wither virtually or in person) with one of our recommended hair restoration physicians and obtain a conclusive answer? If you are experiencing loss, they could recommend some appropriate forms of treatment and help you maintain what appears to be thick native hair! I hope this helps.

After examining it this morning after a shower, I've come to the conclusion it's maturing, not fully mature. I shaved off some of the non-miniaturized hair, and the middle part of my hairline is still in its juvenile position. Once the middle part goes to it's mature position (if it does), the recession on that side with miniaturized hair i buzzed off won't look as deep.
