What is wrong with my head?

[spacemonkey18]

OK, so I've noticed this so much more recently. My DH thinks I'm mad. But I seem to have a very prominent) bulging temporal bone/line/ridge on both sides of my head. I was concerned it was temporal arteries, but DH assures me it's just the bones... I do have visible veins in my temples, my skin is very pale, but I can fix with makeup to some degree. I have a buzzcut at the moment which makes the bone more obvious, but it's always apparent. I've noticed it more with age. It looks really awful! And I've never seen it on any other female. It really affects my confidence.

Obviously I can't do much about it, but is this even normal/does anyone else have it? Coupled with my giant forehead and flat temples, I look like a Lego minifig.

Photo of course - if you recognise me, no you don't 😂 you can see the curve.

You look normal. If it's really worrying you see your Doctor.

Looks normal to me too- but if you’re worried see a doc.

You don’t look like a Lego minifig lol

Your head shape looks normal but a buzz cut is going to be very unforgiving in terms of showing every lump and bump on your head, so either grown it longer or experiment with hair dye to create patterns rather than one all over colour.

I think you probably haven't noticed other women with the same feature because they have usually got longer hair obscuring it. Love your haircut! I used to have the same style and it's a lot of fun 😊

I think most people who opted for a buzz cut would then notice all sorts of shapes/bumps on their skull that wouldn't be clocked with a full head of hair. It looks very normal to me. i'm uber pale and you can see a lot of visible veins on the side of my head and forehead (and the rest of my body) - as you say makeup covers it if you feel a need to but I do think it's just again, normal.

Honestly, I love the definition- think it looks hot!

Do you mean the line leading to your parting/widows peak or whatever? Is that bone? I wouldn’t worry about it, we’ve all got weird bumps on our heads it’s just they are mostly under hair. I certainly don’t think it stands out particularly. Love your haircut and colour.

I have the same thing - something I noticed as my skin tone changed thanks to ageing! The haircut looks ace!

If you look at an image of a human skull, you will be able to see that ridge. It's perfectly normal.

Can you highlight on the pictures what you are talking about please?

Your head looks exactly like a head. It is not weird in the slightest.

I wouldn’t have noticed it unless you had pointed it out. It looks normal to me and the fact it’s on both sides of your head means it’s just your normal head I would say.

Looks normal to me too. I love your haircut, looks great.

Hi, thanks for all the kind comments. To clarify, it's the line under the skin of the forehead on right side of the pic. It goes from the hairline and curves down to the outer edge of my eyebrow.

I've had my hair very short and very long, anything longer than a pixie cut it becomes unmanageable (very dense, thick, wavy and frizzy). And longer hair casts shadows on my face and shows up all my fine lines and undereye circles! I can't win unfortunately.

Thank you @ColonelSpondleClagnut 😂

You're a perfectly normal person with a perfectly normal head.

The buzz cut looks good on you.
