Did you mean Frontal Hairline?

GlossaryFrontal Scalp (Frontal Hairline)

This region is significant in both cosmetic and medical contexts, as it is often the first area to show signs of hair thinning or recession, particularly in conditions like male or female pattern baldness (androgenetic alopecia).
