What's this hairstyle called?
>>64396957
just
The Cavill
It's called "a sign of maturity and male attractiveness in Victorian times, but a sign of oogliness in 2015 when people have unrealistic standards about male physiology".

It still looks good to literally everyone in the real world. It's fascinating how some people like you think the subhumans who post on 4chan are representative of anything other than themselves. How does one even come to take seriously a celebrity gossiping, mentally retarded stormfront shill with a pathological obsession over height and balding? These people deserve to die, not be taken seriously.

Tumblr and 4chan are the same when it comes to this shit. I can guarantee you that for every JUST post on 4chan, there's an equivalent Tumblr post from teenage girl who's shocked that men age.
Off the internet though, I definitely agree. I've never met someone and thought, "Holy shit, he has a receded hairline. What an uggo."

OPs picture is normal temple recession that happens to nearly 100% of white males after puberty to varying degrees. Some people have that hairline by default. How is it that you're obsessed with hairlines and don't even know what male pattern baldness is?
>>64398108
Buzzcut or undercut if your remaining hair's really thick
>>64398187
How is that not male pattern baldness?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Male-pattern_hair_loss
> Male-pattern hair loss is the most common cause of hair loss and will affect up to 70% of men and 40% of women at some point in their lifetimes.
>Men typically present with progressive hair loss at the temples and vertex balding
Isn't this exactly what's happening here?
Why is a receding hairline a cause for concern all of a sudden?
Is this some shitty that started at /fit/ like manlets?
>>64398255
It's called mature hairline. It CAN coincide with hair loss.
>>64398255
It is male pattern hair loss yes. But this will most likely never progress to baldness. Dude is 40 years old and has thick hair, there is no reason to fall for /tv/ memes, mad.
>>64398319
The teens have entered their 20s if you haven't noticed.
>>64398255
...It's only male pattern baldness if it progresses. Temple recession happens to nearly every white male and I think blacks too. It isn't male pattern baldness unless that temple recession progresses toward full baldness. What are you not understanding? The end result of MPB is full loss of hair on the top of the head. If someone has recessed temples and it stays at that stage, then obviously they didn't have MPB.
>>64398319
Of course anon

This makes me angry and I have a full head of hair, like on some "well, Man of Steel doesn't have enough haters, lets start a rumor that Henry Cavill is going bald because he doesn't have hair on his forehead" bullshit.
And yes its another attempt at a 'master race' meme where if you are balding you are 'lesser genetics' and everyone needs to hate you and wish you dead.
>>64398397
>isn't that what male pattern baldness is?
it's male pattern HAIR LOSS, you dummy. the loss happens in a male pattern, from the temples. if you were a female, your hair would go thinner in the middle across the scalp. will it progress to baldness? we don't know, but the odds are highly against it.
>>64398359
>>64398375
What counts as baldness? Full baldness?
If someone looks like this and it stays that way for the rest of their life, are you saying they didn't have male pattern baldness?
>Have receeding hairline
>comb it back like that constantly, pulling more hair out
>>64398397
No, that isn't what male pattern baldness is. Hairline maturation = loss of hair at the temples. MPB = Progressive hair loss where the end result is loss of all hair over the top of the head. Receded temples in the real world is, in fact, an attractive, masculine trait.

>>64398578
No, I'm asking questions, because a quick google search seems to contradict what you guys are saying.
What about bald spots? This guy still has some hair on top of his head. If no more hair gets lost, does that mean he doesn't have MPB? Since >>64398507 says
>MPB = Progressive hair loss where the end result is loss of all hair over the top of the head.
Or what if someone's hairline recedes massively, then stops? They still have hair at the top, it's just far back.
>>64398536
>started lurking when I was 14

>>64398480

>>64398676
Oh my god, are you seriously 12? It doesn't matter what you call it or we call it. You can call it horse pattern hair loss if you want to. There is a fact of life that is much unknown to the general 4chan population (who were all teens when 4chan got popular and are now in mid twenties): male hairlines mature, their hair thins out. some go fully bald, some stay with the same hair for years. if you are so interested, you can see how things went for marlon brando, a dude with a receding hairline at very early age.

There is a range of hairlines that are normal and non-MPB. OP's picture is a normal, non-MPB hairline. Your picture is someone with male pattern baldness, as evidenced by the crown hair loss.
>>64398968
Well you're ignoring a lot of the full headed guys who pump millions into keeping it
But the answer is nil

I'm not saying it's bad or ugly, it's just that >>64398004 is an image that has been floating around for at least several years now, and I don't see the difference here.
It looks like Benedict Cumberbatch has male pattern baldness, just not as severe as some other men.
>>64398968
Cumberbatch isn't balding, that's his hairline.
>>64399070
>It looks like Benedict Cumberbatch has male pattern baldness,
okay i am sure you are trolling by now.
>>64399070
it's a receded hairline you fucking nigger. the man is almost 40 years old, he's in no danger of going bald
>>64398676
>If no more hair gets lost, does that mean he doesn't have MPB?
No, but most men continue to lose hair in this situation, bald spot gets bigger until you have that Dark Knight Rises dead guy hairstyle
>>64399070
Norwood 2-2.5 is not considered balding. It could be the earliest stage of balding, or it could just be the person's hairline.

>>64399123
His hairline has changed. He has less hair at the temples. The Wikipedia page I linked said that's typical of men with male-pattern hair loss.
Are you saying it only counts as male pattern baldness if the end result is 100% baldness?

And they're called Geheimratsecken because back when Germany still had Monarchies, the most important civil servants ascended to the status of "Geheimrat". The name is meant to imply seniority and wisdom.
Jesus you people are stupid
Actors like this guy or Henry Cavill use hair meds like Finasteride or Minoxidil, most actors get hair transplant because they can
Don't think these people are not balding, they are but they have ''access'' to meds (any idiot can go to the dermatologist and start a hair loss treatment)
>>64399330
Then what does the "pattern" part mean, if the end result is 100% bald?
Would it be correct to say someone is "undergoing" male pattern baldness if they aren't bald yet?
Do a Google image search for male pattern baldness, most of the pictures show people with some hair.
>>64399243
His hairline looks the same here. It's just less obvious since it's not slicked back.
>>64399250
The only thing he's wrong about is that people now find it unattractive. It's considered unattractive by creepy internet losers who have a mental illness that makes them obsessed with hairlines and height, but women are actually hardwired to see a mature hairline like the OP as attractive and masculine. A straight hairline is actually called a "juvenile hairline," which most men progress beyond.
>>64399435
Temples aren't as far inward. You can see the root of his hair in the corner, where no hair is present in the OP image.
>>64399223
It's just genetics. I don't know if I was born with a widow's peak, but I know I've had it since I started paying attention to my hair, which was when I was like 16

>>64399479
Most women I've asked do give a shit about height and hairlines, but being short or having a receded hairline is more like the absence of a good thing, rather than a bad thing in itself. People here are just way too pessimistic about it.

I need to get something off my chest /tv/. My hair is like this and right now I get it cut with a part and just use the part to cover one half of my receding hairline. At one point do I go full Cumbatch and slick it back like that? I'm 22 by the way.
>>64399683
>At one point do I go full Cumbatch and slick it back like that?
Whenever you grow some balls.
>>64399683
>go full Cumbatch and slick it back like that?
Little piece of advice: you NEVER go full cumberbatch
>>64399683
just go with it. own your hairline. chances are you look like you're trying to hide going bald by combing over your receding hairline.
>>64399589
What's wrong about it? Do you think your receding will stop?
No, most males do recede in their late teens and early 20s but just little tiny bit, they don't develop a Henry Cavill hairline, if you develop that you're officially balding and the only way to stop it is to get on hair meds or hair transplant
>>64399756
The only people who notice are fellow baldlets. I do the same thing the other anon does, and have only been called out by a guy who was insecure with his own hairline.
>>64399850
This, I never used to notice men's hairlines before unless they were obviously balding, now it's pretty much the first thing I notice when I look at someone.

You are a fucking moron and you have no clue what you're talking about. You're just making shit up. There is an actual, scientific amount of recession that is considered normal, and it's beyond "a little tiny bit." You literally just fabricated that with no knowledge on the subject. It is, in fact, objectively true that Henry Cavill could have a normal hairline and not be balding. You are the worst kind of imbecile.
>>64399683
There are people with similar hairlines to yours and they have short hair. Stop trying to hide it.
>oh noes im losing my hair, i wont get laid
I think your bigger problem is stop posting Star Wars threads on /tv/, 12 hours every day. You can have all the hair in the world, but if you never go outside and just keep fantasizing about making sweet love to Alexandra Daddario, the only thing you will fuck is your hand, meanwhile so baldguy somewhere is have great sex because the biggest concern of his life wasnt the fucking problems in The Force Awakens.
>>64399983
That's a terrible ultimatum. The /tv//Star Wars/Daddario option sounds a lot better.
>>64399683
Contrary to what the armchair dermatologists on this board will tell you, there's a good chance that will be your hairline forever. That hairline is not considered balding, and unless you have thinning hair on your crown, you don't have to worry about it progressing further.
>>64399983
Daddario is pretty amazing though. damn. love her. she has great hair too.
>>64399850

>>64400154
>itching
that's more likely balding in progress.
be right back. gotta go apply minoxidil.
>>64400154
That in itself doesnt mean anything. If you start to notice thinning/recession, then you panic. I get itching where my recession progresses on my hairline and temples.
I've had a receding hairline since I was 14, obviously being a teen I freaked out, but eventually I learned not to care. I'm 21 now and my hairline is exactly the same, probably about the same as Cumberbatch but my hairline's a little lower.
All the men on my dad's side are full bald, but all the men on my mother's side have perfect hair, so I'm hoping I just stay like this until I at least get married and have kids. At which point a guy doesn't care anymore.
Btw we call that the widow's peak where I'm from
there will be a magic pill that cures it...r-right?
>>64400337
I've also started to recede at 13/14 and I'm 18 now of course I receded more but my hairline is the same as the one Henry Cavill has, it also looks like Cumberbatch

It's astonishing how few men know this. Really shows how underage most people here are. Plenty of men end up with that sort of hairline and keep it for the rest of their lives without going full bald.

Impossible to say. Even if they both had full heads of hair, you could go bald just by chance.

No, that's receding. And unless you're around 40 (like pic related) looking for/dating women over 35 no one's gonna find that attractive.

This desu. Both regarding the hairstyle and the new episode.
Pretty much all character development went out the window as every single character on the show was rendered somehow unsympathetic and annoying. Accordingly, EVERYBODY'S dialogue sucked; nothing felt like a believable thing for that person to say, and even if I were a first-time watcher all of it was clumsy and forced-feeling anyway. And speaking of forcing, the pacing was just absolutely fucked. Even the deductions felt half-assed and rushed. The most intense emotion the episode made me feel was the wave of relief that washed over me when Sherlock woke up on the plane and I figured that the shitshow was over.
2/10 tops. Priority number one when producing this episode was clearly turning the entire cast, male and female, into a bunch of annoying assholes for the sake of shoehorning in awkward social commentary on long-dead generations of English society, and everything else about the show (right down to the camera work, normally clever and engaging as everything else about the show) fell by the wayside in a big way. I'm still finding it hard to believe that the same people even wrote and produced it, even if the actors are all the same.
>>64400892
Yes.
>>64399403
i think that when you look at it from a girls perspective (and if we are being honest, that's what matters here), girls don't think of a guy as balding until his frontal hairline (not the temples) has noticeably thinned/receded, or there is a noticeable bald/thinning area on the back of his head.
>>64404773

i know no one's going to believe me but i'm a female and baldness can actually be pretty sexy sometimes. or at least it doesn't really detract from a dude if he's already hot.
Jason Statham is bald and he's sexy as fuck. if a guy is bald but he's confident, maybe has a nice body or a really good personality, girls won't give a shit about his lack of hair.
>>64397018
