Catching it early is important for sure. I've been using minoxidil for 3 years since my early twenties and my hairline has not receded at all since then, but it also hasn't recovered much. The generic minoxidil is quite cheap, I pay about 40 dollars a year.

Edit: I haven't tried Finasteride as I hear rumors of awful sexual symptoms.
