The myhairline.ai report gives you a Norwood stage classification, estimated graft count, treatment recommendations, and cost projections in under 60 seconds from a single photo. It uses Gemini Vision AI combined with 468 MediaPipe facial landmarks to analyze your hairline position, temple recession, and vertex thinning without any clinic visit.

What the Report Contains
Every myhairline.ai report includes six core sections. Here is what each one provides and how to interpret it.
1. Norwood Stage Classification
The report assigns you a Norwood stage from 1 to 7 based on your photo analysis. The Norwood scale is the standard clinical classification system for male pattern hair loss.
| Norwood Stage | What It Means | Grafts Typically Needed |
|---|---|---|
| NW1 | No significant hair loss | 0 (preventive care only) |
| NW2 | Slight recession at temples | 800-1,500 |
| NW3 | Deep temple recession forming M-shape | 1,500-2,200 |
| NW3V | Temple recession with vertex thinning | 2,000-2,800 |
| NW4 | Further recession with enlarged vertex area | 2,500-3,500 |
| NW5 | Separation between front and vertex narrowing | 3,000-4,500 |
| NW6 | Bridge between areas lost, horseshoe pattern | 4,000-6,000 |
| NW7 | Most extensive hair loss, narrow band remains | 5,500-7,500 |
The AI analyzes your hairline position relative to facial landmarks, the depth of temple recession, and the extent of vertex thinning to assign your stage. Read the full Norwood scale guide for detailed descriptions of each stage.
2. Graft Count Estimate
Based on your Norwood stage, the report calculates the estimated number of grafts needed for full coverage. This number accounts for the typical recipient area size at your stage and the density required for a natural-looking result.
Each graft contains an average of 2.2 individual hairs. So a 2,000-graft estimate means approximately 4,400 new hairs.
3. Treatment Recommendations
The report recommends treatment options matched to your stage:
| Stage Range | Typical Recommendations |
|---|---|
| NW1-2 | Finasteride (80-90% halt loss), minoxidil (40-60% regrowth), monitoring |
| NW3-4 | Hair transplant (FUE or FUT) + medical therapy |
| NW5-7 | Multi-session transplant or transplant + SMP, medical therapy |
Recommendations are based on published clinical data, not product promotions. The report does not recommend specific clinics or surgeons.
4. Cost Projections
The report provides cost estimates by region based on your graft count:
| Region | Cost Per Graft | Example: 2,500 Grafts |
|---|---|---|
| Turkey | $1-2 | $2,500-$5,000 |
| Europe | $2.50-4.50 | $6,250-$11,250 |
| UK | $3-5 | $7,500-$12,500 |
| USA | $4-6 | $10,000-$15,000 |
These ranges reflect 2026 market pricing across hundreds of clinics. Actual quotes will vary based on surgeon experience, clinic location, and procedure specifics.
5. Facial Landmark Analysis
The report includes a visualization of the 468 MediaPipe facial landmarks overlaid on your photo. Key measurements include:
- Hairline-to-brow distance: Compared against the ideal forehead height (6.5 cm for males, 5.5 cm for females)
- Temple recession depth: Measured bilaterally to detect asymmetric loss
- Vertex coverage: Analyzed using overhead or angled views when provided
- Golden ratio assessment: Hairline position evaluated against the 1.618 golden ratio for facial proportion
6. Progression Risk Indicators
The AI identifies visual markers that suggest the rate of future hair loss. These include miniaturization patterns (thinning hairs interspersed with terminal hairs), diffuse thinning ahead of the main recession line, and bilateral symmetry of the loss pattern. These indicators help predict whether your stage is stable or actively progressing.
How to Get the Best Report
Photo quality directly affects report accuracy. Follow these guidelines:
- Lighting: Use natural daylight or bright, even indoor lighting. Avoid harsh overhead light that creates shadows on the scalp
- Angles: Take a front-facing photo with your forehead fully visible, plus a top-down photo if you have vertex thinning
- Hair state: Hair should be dry, unstyled, and not covered with products that obscure the scalp
- Resolution: Use your phone's main camera (not the selfie camera) for higher resolution
- Background: A plain, contrasting background helps the AI isolate your hairline edges
Who Should Use This Tool
The myhairline.ai report is designed for:
- Men noticing early hair loss who want a baseline Norwood assessment before visiting a clinic
- Patients researching hair transplants who need graft count and cost estimates for budgeting
- Post-transplant patients tracking their results over time by comparing reports at different stages
- Anyone curious about their hair loss stage who wants quick, private, data-driven answers without a clinic appointment

Limitations
The AI report is a screening tool, not a clinical diagnosis. It cannot measure donor density (which requires a physical densitometer), assess scalp laxity, or detect underlying medical conditions causing hair loss. Patients planning surgery should use the report as a starting point and follow up with an in-person consultation with a qualified hair restoration surgeon.
FAQ
Is AI-based Norwood staging accurate?
myhairline.ai uses 468 MediaPipe facial landmarks to map your hairline position with high precision. The AI model is trained on thousands of clinical hair loss images across all Norwood stages. Accuracy improves with clear, well-lit photos taken from the angles specified in the tool instructions.
Do I need an account to use the tools?
No account is required. myhairline.ai is a free browser-based tool that works on any device with a camera. You upload or take a photo, the AI processes it locally and via Gemini Vision, and your report is generated instantly. No email, no sign-up, no hidden costs.
How does myhairline.ai compare to a clinical assessment?
myhairline.ai provides a data-driven Norwood stage estimate, graft count projection, and treatment options based on your photo. A clinical assessment adds physical scalp examination, donor density measurement with a densitometer, and personalized surgical planning. The AI report is a strong starting point; a clinical consultation remains the gold standard for surgical decisions.
