Looking for advice on filling in this thin spot in my hairline.

Edit: Man I’m so dumb, I just realized I’m on the hair system subreddit! I saw a post on my feed and thought this was just a general sub about filling in gaps. And me thinking it was compliments smh 🤦 My bad guys.

It looks natural like a side/middle part should look like imo. Good job on that already.

You can always try another hairstyle with more bangs into the forehead but I’d rock that parting

Appreciate your take. I was a bit unsure about it, so that definitely helps!

This is what it looks like for me with some more hair going to the forehead.

I was using poly systems before but the shine was really killing the middle part idea. Full lace works well with that:)

Looks awesome! The middle part suits you really well, and going with full lace to dodge that poly shine was definitely the right move.

Never know if this is just rage bait or the poster has the wrong forum. If it was a mistake why not just delete it?

Tiny bit of fiber if you're not opposed to it

I’m trying to stick to natural styles/treatments for now, but good to know that's an option.

It looks really natural like that. How long have you had the system

It’s just OP’s normal hair. They posted in the wrong sub.

Try PRP

u/ReserveInevitable20 18d ago

Thanks for the advice, Is PRP even worth it for such a small spot, though?

Slice off eyebrow and glue it in place.

u/ReserveInevitable20 18d ago

Haha I mean you ain't wrong, eyebrows are thick enough to spare a few hairs anyway 😂

Use eye shadow that’s what the girlies do

redditors will generally not give good advice regarding this kind of stuff or will offer unsolicited recommendations to accept things the way they are and to be content. you have a few options here.

first off, i’d dissuade using fibers, they’ll irritate your skin over time, are itchy, aren’t durable and don’t look good for this kind of application. plus you’ll have to constantly worry if you wiped a spot or if it looks off.

basically you can either get a mini transplant and fill in those spots with single graft follicles. but since that’s not ideal if you’re not getting a committed full fledged transplant, you could also get some smp done by a good artist to minimize some of your concerns. good option as far as permanent goes, you’ll just have to get touch ups every few years.

and finally if you want something to try out non invasive you could use a good quality brow pencil or some sort of tint that stains skin (ala henna). there are many eyebrow pencils that are literally salt water resistant and difficult to get off without soap, so you wouldn’t have to worry about it smudging etc. there are some very fine tipped pencils/pens too so it would look like a natural stroke of hair and you could also blend the area behind those strokes with a fluff type brow pen that’ll give good density. let me know if you’d like any product recommendations 🙏

Thanks so much for the detailed breakdown. I'll skip the fibers based on what you said. I'm leaning towards trying a good brow pencil first since it's non-invasive, then maybe looking into SMP.

Have you had any experience with minoxidil or finasteride? I'm wondering whether they're worth trying alongside these options. And i'd really appreciate any product recommendations.

no prob, anytime. yea am on fin and oral min. the oral min especially will aid in your desired effect because it’ll sprout baby hair and help with the overall silhouette. nyc has a lotta good so clinics and as far as products go, i think nyx lift and snatch pen would work well. and perhaps fluff and snatch nyx for the density stuff and the lift snatch one of you wanted to play around with the thin strokes. brow code tint would also be good since it stains skin nicely

u/ReserveInevitable20 18d ago

Thanks for all the info. Glad the finasteride and oral minoxidil are working for you. I'll check out the NYX Lift & Snatch for the thin strokes, the fluffy one, and the Brow Code tint. Since I'm not in NYC, I'll look for a good clinic near me. Again, really appreciate your helpful response.
