joe234 Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I have no idea how to make my hair look good since it has stabilized where it is. My main problem is the sides are very far back. I like having my hair medium length forward to break up my high hairline but inevitably I'll look in the mirror and my skin is showing on the right side temple where you would expect hair. Attached is a photo of the problem spot. What should I do? Shave the point back? Cut it to a 2 on the sides? Fade it high to cut the lower part of the point and get longer higher up? I'm considering a peaky blinders but not shaved. The front is also pretty thin so I thought letting the back grow to add to the bangs might help. In any case I'm completely lost and don't know what to do about it. I'm tired of worrying about the wind =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Youth_Again Posted October 9, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted October 9, 2023 skin fade, by having hair on ur temple really short it will look way better trust me. I used to cut my hair this way and it was looking pretty good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted October 10, 2023 Administrators Share Posted October 10, 2023 I would suggest something like a forward quiff. You need a little more length, but I think this looks better. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

joe234 Posted October 11, 2023 Author Share Posted October 11, 2023 Thanks very much for the suggestion. My new hairline is unfortunately too high to wear my hair up like yours =( I have to cover it up as much as I can with the hair forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member GoliGoliGoli Posted October 12, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted October 12, 2023 This is what I do, except like a 2.5 above the ears whereas that guy has like a zero I think. The right haircut can go a long ways to masking a receding hairline so kudos to you. A lot of guys rush into getting hairline work as nw2 or nw3 when really they should learn to style it and live with it and delay the HT until years later so they don’t have to chase it as they lose more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe234 Posted December 3, 2023 Author Share Posted December 3, 2023 Thanks everyone for the suggestions. The side does look much better short. Now I'm trying to figure out the top. The hairline is over the top curve of my forehead. If I try to wear it forward it's not really thick enough, more like a thin layer that doesn't cover well enough. Wearing it up in a comb over is better but I'm still uncomfortable with how high the hairline is. It goes up from the temples at a slight angle to meet the center of my forehead. Any thoughts on the top? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
