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!
