Am I going bald?.............?

[Draed88]

I'm 21, and terrified of losing my hair
My mom doesn't have any brothers and I didn't get to see her dad(my grandfather) but from what she tells me, he lost some of his frontal hair and had a big forehead :(
I think I'm starting to show signs of receding hairline...:(

Hello

I know how you feel, I'm not a hair expert but from what I can see your hair looks fine, judging from the second picture it looks like you have a widows peak, which has nothing to do with baldness but may make you think your receding due to the peak being more forward:

The pictures in the Wikipedia article are an example of a widows peak, you can also view famous people that have one using the list.

Your hair actually looks really good. If anything, I'd guess your hairline is transitioning from a juvenile to a mature hairline. I wouldn't worry about it unless you started seeing a lot of hair loss (more than 150 or so hairs a day).
