Answer 1

it's called a high hairline.

Just explain to them that you are born with a high hairline or a big forehead (hey, it's a sign of wisdom). It's nothing to worry about and you can also see it in women sometimes.

Also, if you're not loosing hair, I think you can experiment with styling your hair differently to avoid that comment. If your natural hairline is really high, try consult a hairstylist who should be able to help.

Answer 2

It actually depends on the shape of the hairline. If it goes back just above the temples with a more pronounced area in front that seems somewhat "V" shaped, It's called a "Widows Peak", as in Eddie Munster. It's been said that a widow's peak is a sign of virility. So maybe, it's lucky for ya!
