There is has a chance for both. Hope this helps.

If the woman has both alleles, one for a straight hairline and one for a widow’s peak hairline, then the egg has a chance of having both alleles.

What are alleles?

An allele is a single base or segment of the DNA. An allele is the variant of a gene. Different alleles contain different characters of the same organism.

Here, both alleles, one for a straight hairline and one for a widow’s peak hairline, are present in the woman. So the egg will have a chance of having both alleles, one can be dominant, and the other can be recessive.

Thus, the egg has a probability of carrying both alleles if the mother carries both of the genes—one for a straight hairline and one for a widow's peak hairline.
