Braved the shave

Shaved my hair off after having long hair for the last 15 years

Actually quite surprised at the amount of loss I have I think having long hair exgagaterd it based on these new pictures what sort of Norwood am I looking at being?

Will probably look at getting the temporal points filled in and that's about it

Been using finasteride 1mg daily for the last 6 months with zero issues and minoxidil at night hair definitely feels stabilised

I don't see any loss: your hair is short and photographed under harsh lighting. You would need to have an otter's pelt, rather than hair, on your head for there to be no scalp visible at all.

There is some thinning in the crown but it`s only noticeable with this buzz cut. Your pictures from your other posts are a different scenario, you have good hair and no one would notice any thinning. Looking at these latest pictures I would stick with the meds for at least another 6 months to see how it goes.
Your hairline looks good. Slightly mature but nothing to be concerned with. It does look more receded when compared to your long hair pictures.
Have you had any recent recommendations from clinics?

The thinning on the crown hasn't ever actually bothered maybe because I can't actually notice it unless in pictures ??

Does any one no off any cases with just temple restoration I don't want the hairline lowered just the corners filled in

I had consulatsions when my hair was longer all averaged around 1800-2000 grafts

This case may be what you’re looking for.

That's brilliant thanks I always worry that it will never blend with native hair this just proves that wrong.

Was in a pretty similar situation to me aswell

I’m pleased it helped. Anything else just ask away.

Number 2 grows very quickly from that
Cheers.

Also: I realise that it's how you personally feel but, for what it's worth, I think that your hair looks fine and, if I were you, I wouldn't have anything done. But it's your call. All the best.

Post some pictures as it starts getting longer to show the difference some length makes.
