My hairline's receding. I'm not quite sure if I'm ready to go for the super-short look to match the length of my beard and I was curious if there was any way I could work with someone to get a rendering or semi-decent photo of what I'd look like in that style. Is there a market for this? Professionals? I mean, other than just a Photoshop job, I'd like someone who'd at least understand basic hair styles for guys so I could evaluate what to me is a fairly big step.

There are actually some decent-ish apps to do just that, assuming you're white. Other skintones tend to fair a lot worse.

Plenty of apps can do this http://infinigeek.com/top-10-apps-that-let-you-try-on-different-haircuts/ No idea how well they work.

Shave your head. It'll look sexy. Do it.

As someone who's 95% certain he's going to go bald sooner or later, I recommend just shaving it short. Don't have a skullet.

It's hair, it grows back. Unless you're getting married in the next month or so just do it.

Just get it cut short. Use a trimmer or pay a barber to do it.

I want to see what it looks like before I do that, though. None of the apps really had the very short hairstyle anyway.

In my early 20's when my hairline first started receding (it fortunately stopped receding by around 22/23*, so there's still hope it won't just continue indefinitely!) I had a terrible time with finding a stylist who wouldn't gently caress up and give me a haircut that didn't suit my hairline. I finally ended up finding someone, but I had a bunch of terrible haircuts in the interim. * I'm 31 now, so I'm pretty confident at this point that my current hairline is probably my permanent one. Which is good, because it's still low enough that I can have medium length hair (my face is very poorly suited to super short hair).

If you do end up shaving it, have a beard. A bald man without a beard looks like a progeriatic baby.

I do have a beard, I figured it would look better than the goatee I used to have when the inevitable short hair day came. Here's a quick album, showing my normal look and where the hairline really is. If fyad leaks, oh well https://imgur.com/a/5B4gD

Just ask a barber what they think. If they want to go for it, then try it out. Worst case scenario is you can go back to you usual look in a month or two.

That's pretty normal hair for a dude tbh. Makes you look smart.

Yeah, there's a decent barber by where I work and I know what # trimmer length I like for my sides, so it's usually just like "#3 on the sides, proportionate on the top, whatever looks good with the hairline" and I shut up and let him do his work. My wife thinks I'd look good with the Very Short Shave given the beard, but I've been on the fence the last year or so. If I had bristly hair on the beard I could probably pull it off, but my hair's not bristly and if my beard gets much shorter it looks too peachfuzzy. I'll keep it as is, because I could use the look-smartness. At least for this year. Now I just gotta give in and order a wool watchcap, because my head gets cold D:

You're a guy. Shave your hair off, and evaluate is as it grows back to find the length you like. At worst, it'll be back to "guy length" in about a month and a half. If you can't live with that for a month and a half, a receding hairline is the least of your problems.

Your hair looks pretty normal. But cut it short, and it will grow back

Short hair or bald needs to be on a fit dude. Otherwise you look like a slug thing if you're fat and some loving gawky weirdo if you're skinny. Just like chicks. Banging body and short hair? Amazing. Fatty with short hair? Omg get away from me you dyke pig thing
