The hairline is where frontal scalp hair begins — the trichion in thirds-talk. Looksmaxxing rates height (fivehead vs low), shape (juvenile rounded vs adult M / widow’s peak vs straight), and temples. A receding temple is Norwood talk; a high stable line is just a big forehead.
Apparent size is cheap to cheat: bangs, middle part, “hair off the forehead” (makes the upper third count), or a cut that piles triangle hair onto the corners. Transplant, hairline lowering, and finasteride are medicine. Comb-overs are a self-mog.
Shapes
