Does it look like I'm balding and have a big forehead?

I don't think you're balding, I think you have a receding hairline. Some folks have that. You do not look stupid at all. I think you're a cutie. Talk to a stylist & see if a different hair style would work better for you. Do not go to a barber shop, ok?
As for your mother...she is not helpful. If she says anything like this again, tell her just that. "Mom, I love you, but you are not very helpful when you say that." And leave it at that.
Thank you. I useually go to first choice and ask for tapered as I know nothin about fashion
Er...I think you need to go somewhere else to get something new. Do you have any sisters? If you do, find out where they go. If not, ask some friends (girls) where they go. Go to an up scale salon to get something new. If you like it, you can take some photos of it & see if someone at 1st choice can do that for you. You will certainly pay more, but you get what you pay for.
Thank you very much. I like the Clooney look but don't know if that will look good on me. I don't have any sister or friends that are girls.
thank you I hope you are right but some of the answers are concerning
Don't give it another thought. It is a tad thin up front, but I think that's normal for most men unless you are Hispanic. For some reason, they are just gifted with thick hair. I think you are obsessing on your hair because your mom has been harsh with you. That is terrible. I don't know what her problem is with this, but forget about it. You look fine.
BTW, I do not mean to get personal, but how is your relationship with her? Is this the only problem with her? Has she caused other self esteem issues for you? If so, I do hope you resolve them because you are a young man & you do not need to carry this with you through life. Take care of it now so you can have a good relationship with her & not dwell on it all through your life. Moms, sorry to say, can do a number on their kids, dad can too. Just look at the importance you have put on her comment about your
hair when it shouldn't be a focus for you. There are more important things in your life, right? Put it all in perspective & talk with her about any of these things she might be putting upon you. Deal with it now & move on. You are a grown man who doesn't need your mom's approval, just her love. :) I can say that, I'm a mom. <3
I guess she has been the cause of more. I don't really speak to her as I live with my dad now to help him around his house. I don't have anything else to do but think and look in the mirror
Nothing else to do? Hobbies, read. Cover up that mirror, it isn't about what we look like, it is about what kind of person we are, who we are, and who we can & want to be. Looks can be deceiving, and they fade. It's great that you are helping your dad, speaks to your character. Now, cover up the mirror, so to speak, & stop thinking about mom's words. What does she know? She should be telling you that you are a good, caring son. Now, start thinking about things you want to do.
I don't do anything. I go to work, go to gym, come home and go to sleep
Then, get out & do stuff! You're too young to sit around. Find stuff to do. Get a hobby, take a class, volunteer, go to church, go to coffee shops (usually chess games & clubs there), check out groups & clubs in your area. Just don't sit around & be stagnant. It's not good, & you know it, you feel it. So you have 2 choices: keep doing what you're doing & be miserable, or make changes & possibly create a better life for yourself. Now, which sounds better? It's a risk, but who said life was safe.
It's more of a receding hairline. My friend has it at 18, but it's not noticeable because of the way it's cut. He just doesn't have long hair anymore, just cut into a nice style. So of this is bothering (and it seems like it is) get your hair cut into a nice style.
is it unattractive?
You look like a normal guy with a short haircut to me. Maybe tilt your head just a tiny bit more forward when you take pics if you're worried about it. I think that changes the perspective of the photo just a bit.
Hey, it's genetics. it just shows your have a normal hormone level and aren't drinking much alcohol. We're more advanced on the evolutionary path, you know.
So what if Hollywood says only guys with big hair are good looking? Real women know better,!
Don't those 40 year old Hollywood types with huge hair look so ridiculous? Obviously artificiallly enhanced hair.
I think that is how a bunch of guys look with short hair. I was just thinking about getting mine cut short and then I thought how I would look like my hair line is receding.
Short answer - Maybe a little, but it's normal with some guys. Don't worry about it.
I am only 20 though

yes your balding...it can be genetic(if your ancestors had same problem) or it may be hormonal (due to increase in DHT)..if its hormonal it can be avoided ...go for Black Tea,Soy Foods(fermented),Green Tea and increase your protein intake...add fish and eggs to your diet ...these things can help protect rest of your hair ...u may try Hair Gain products by Loreal etc to boost hair growth
I'd rather die than go bald. People think bald people are stupid and laugh at them.
no they are not ...u may see people like jason statham ,bruce willis,Dwayne The Rock Johnsons they all are bald and they are tough,handsome bad ass ..how can you think like that ...even if you go bald nothing happens there are so many things which you can improve and make yourself presentable ...right now your just loosing some hair work on them...n dnt take stress sin ce it will only accelerate balding ...if you ever lost all of your hair you may go for hair transplant too
Hair transplants cost a lot. I canot afford that. I'm afraid all my hard ork going to the gym and stuff will go to waste
dnt take me wrong but dht is also produced by OM (self stimulation)so watch out for that...Cosmetics company L'Oreal recently announced that they have developed a new topical called Neogenic that promises to wake up dormant hair follicles and regrow hair...it will soon be available ...u can try your best ..rest leave it to god ...y do you think all your gym stuff will go to waste ...its not like that bro...keep up your hard work ,muscles won't go newhere,we live once...so count the blessings
yes you are ...but better late than never...start working on it ...there are many option you can try to bring your hair back ...i can imagine you can look good and smart without hair too...u still look far better than many bald guys ...ur not unattractive at all
your not bold your mom is very mean beside their are girls who are atreckted to bold guys but anyway your not bold at all
I mean balding. My "A" key doesn't work sometimes
Yeah it seems you are balding! You should use vitamins for hair loss like Reloxe. My friend used Reloxe and his hair was grown a lot!
Man your mom was harsh. Maybe if you tilted your head a little more forward than the pic would be fine :) Don't worry about it.
I think you look fine. You mom is mean and I think also you are tilting your head back which makes your forehead look bigger.
I'd have said, "Of course I look stupid, look who I have for a mother"
You have an oval face. Grow your hair out man. :D
nah, not even. geees! dw about it!
