Other types of hairlines and what they reveal about your ancestry:
1. M-shaped
An M-shaped hairline (seen in celebs like Harry Styles) is often signified by a subtle recession near the temples. For many people, it can mean a history of male-pattern baldness and early hair loss.
2. Receding hairline
Another sign of male pattern baldness, these signs can often show up as early as adolescence and appear via a thinning at the temple, which causes recessions on both sides of the forehead. In women, a receding hairline can sometimes signify different kinds of alopecia.
3. High/low hairline
These are common for women. A high hairline that keeps moving higher can be a sign of women’s hair loss, while a low hairline (seen in celebrities like Priyanka Chopra) means less of a distance between the brows and hairline.
