I am a 22 yr. old female with a terrible widow’s peak, and I have hated my forehead for my entire life. Some people think that widow’s peaks are unique, but trust me-mine is ugly and awful and makes me feel bald. It is very prominent and severe and it makes me feel like I have a man’s receding hairline more than anything else. I would do nearly anything to have a round, even hairline like most women do. I have considered methods such as rogaine and hair transplants. Is there any hope for me to ever have a normal hairline?
First and foremost, you may have a widow’s peak that you do not like, but it is a “normal” hairline. If you want to remove the widow’s peak, you can try laser hair removal, which is fairly successful. There is a patient of mine who had his widow’s peak removed with great results. Unfortunately, he changed his mind a few years later and had a hair transplant to put it back. He decided he liked it after all, because it changed his appearance too much for his liking. Your other option is to have a hair transplant around the widow’s peak to round out your hairline. So, you do have options!
