How far can a hairline recede before drastic action is needed? I’ve had a widows peak for at least a decade already, but I’m still opting for short hair rather than no hair.
When the subject comes up, I like to compare myself to Jude Law- our hairlines are very similar, though he perhaps has a slightly better face to go with his.

Put your hand on your forehead, with your little finger just above your eyebrow. If none of your other fingers are touching hair, get that shit off. A forehead is okay, but 5 head or above is an abomination.

My index finger touches hair, but only from palm to knuckle. Also my dog is now looking at me with concern because I’ve been clutching my head and looking confused for a minute.

My favourite thing is seeing heavy metal fans who are bald, but still in denial and rocking the slicked back and pony tail look. It really makes my day.

Everyone that looks at you will think you need to shave it off.

All the Hair or no Hair at All.
Sounds like a Bond film that I'd actively watch.

Just shave it all off. You're not fooling anyone.

How far can a hairline recede before drastic action is needed? Obviously very subjective, but I recommend to not just use a mirror to decide, but take pictures from the sides and the back, too.

Very much this. The thing that finally pushed me over the line was being on a Teams video call at work which the person who sits directly behind me (facing the other way) was also on and seeing the back of my head in their background. It wasn’t a good look.

Or wait until your Mrs looks at you and says "Don't you think it's about time you shaved that off?"

I’ve been wanting to just do a number 3 or 4 all over by myself at home, but she reckons it will look terrible, and I need the professional touch of the Turkish barber who charges a tenner.

Yep, this is the correct course of action as much as we all thought we were pulling a fast one, thinking "oh but I have good coverage left", it's never the case in reality. I've never been happier since doing mine. I did a 2mm on the back and sides and 4.5 on top this morning, and it looks great.

Aaaah, the skullet I only heard about those recently (ish). Love it. Guy across the road from us has one, didn't know it had a name! Shaved down on top, party at the back. Amaaazing. 🤣

Booked in on Friday. It’s time. I’m early 40s now so I think I can be at peace with it. Have had a high hairline and widow’s peek type setup since basically childhood which earned me much pisstaking but was basically static. Over the last few years the peak bit has basically got higher though leaving behind solitary hairs and I have to accept it’s now on the move. It doesn’t look good on teams calls seeing a bald bloke under a headband which flyaway wisps floating over the top.
Took some selfies of the top last night and didn’t like what I saw either. Have always had an annoying double crown which means more scalp is visible than normal boys but this is beyond that.
Just wondering what to have done. I don’t wanna go into the realms of Bic jobs if I can help it. Brother in law has a 1/4 on top combo jarhead style which I’d love, but my hair has always been fine (different to thinning I think) anyway and this combined with the actual thinning, not sure I’m gonna pull that off.
Worse still, the Mrs likes longer hair and is a bit let’s say speculative about it. Not sure what to do. Part of thinks that if I ask for a 2 upwards all over I end up like Prince William.
Also no drugs. Too old and poor for that sh*t and do not want to risk the side effects.
