How to differentiate between a maturing hairline and a receding hairline? What's the difference? How long does it take once it begins before you really go bald? What can we do to stop it?
check your family's hairline. it's mostly genetic so if your dad/granddad has male pattern baldness, chances are that you will have it as well

What if it's only one bald grandpa and your dad has nice hair? I'm about to get my genome sequenced just to figure this out
A "maturing" hairline is just a euphemism for male pattern hair loss. For some men is falls back into that lightly receded mature line and stay there or recedes at a snails pace. Other men it continues to retreat further and further. If you're genuinely worried, look into fin.

There's no difference. Mature hairline is a receding hairline that just doesn't progress into full blown NW7 baldness. If you have a "mature hairline", you have MPB and it's very likely it'll progress further. Guys like Cary Grant, George Clooney and Jon Hamm aren't the norm.
Gosling has a thinning top as well, but he has a good haircut, so his hair loss isn't obvious.

if only one person is bald in your family then you have a pretty good chance of keeping your hair, dont stress out over it

>To the extent of my knowledge of my genealogy tree (father before his 40s, one grandfather, one uncle + childhood memories of other uncles)
>No one with eye problems
>People tends to grow on the fat side
>Diabetes in a branch of the family
>no balding
And here I am
>skinny AF since childhood. (Do sport, gain muscle. Stop more than 3 weeks, back to skinny mode)
>Bad eyesight since I'm 8 yo (probably younger but not diagnosed)
>Slowly but steadily balding for 1.5 year.
I expect to be diagnosed wit diabetes in 15 years...
As for the hairline, OP better should not give a fuck about it. It's not like his hair will regrow if he worries about them. (Didn't work for me last year)

>mature hairline
If your hairline is moving back on your head it is receding.
Don't lie to yourself.
Take it as it comes.

I wouldn't mind being the mailman's son tho. Maybe I'd escape diabetes this way.
Different anon here. When people say it comes from your mother's side, what do they mean?
Let me give you a rundown
On my mom's side, my grandfather was 100% bald at the age of 18. Both of my mom's brothers have full heads of hair well into their 50s
On my dad's side, my dad's hair is starting to thin in his late 40s (still looks fine though) and my grandfather has a receded hairline but still a good head of hair, a kind of mad scientist look I'd love to have when I'm at that age
I'm 18 with no signs of receding or thinning yet
What're my chances, doc?

That the people in question unironically display their ignorance for all to see.

don't get fat and you won't get diabetes

>it comes from your mother's side
It's a meme. It can come from either side.
>mfw I bought fina but I'm too scared to use it
I'm not even sure I'm truly balding.
