Am i balding on my crown?

[craig1993]

Im i balding? ive been getting this since i was 15 off friends...i am now 19 and nearly 20...be honest...is it happening or is it just a large crown?

UPDATED. Just had my hair cut.

Sorry dude but it certainly looks like male pattern baldness to me. However do not despair, if your friends have noticed it for the last 5 years you could have a very slowly progressive form of baldness.
By the way I have a friend who's crown looked exactly like yours at 18 and its no different now that he is 34.
Post a Photo of your hairline with your hair brushed back exposing the temples as that will give more of a clue.

Post a clearer picture if you can

Not really sure as the pictures a little hazy.....like sparky says a better picture would help us dude.

This is my hair when i just woke up...i know i have really bad bed hair due to me sleeping on my back alot! i tend to look quite the balding issue when i have bed hair.

My barber did tell me that she couldn't recognise any balding issue on my crown but this is my (hair washed) after getting up with terrible bed hair.

She also mentioned i have really thick hair. So is it possible to have a large crown?

 

[Sparky]

It's just the way your crown grows, in my opinion you haven't had any thinning.

 

[craig1993]

Well when it grows i need it thinning out because it gets mighty thick. My dad is 65 and still has loads of hair. But i have noticed that his crown is kind of the same...if you can look past the grey hair. I just want to know if you can have a large crown. Thanks.

Better pictures dude....I have to say I agree with Sparky, your crown looks fine to me.... Just keep an eye on it.

Everyone's crown is different, some have a larger spiral than others, I think yours looks fine.
