    TLDR The conclusion is that a good hairline design for hair restoration should be personalized and based on specific scalp landmarks.
    The document from 26 years ago provided guidelines for designing and locating hairlines in hair restoration procedures. It highlighted the lack of information in literature on this topic. The guidelines proposed using key topographical landmarks on the frontal scalp to construct a framework of three parallel lines for designing and positioning the hairline. The document emphasized that the best hairline design considers unique factors for each individual. It also noted that the final aesthetic result of a hair restoration procedure depends not only on the construction of the hairline zone but also on its design and placement.
