I have prosopagnosia. It's not that I can't recognize people at all; however, I have to rely mostly on haircut styles, mimics and movement patterns, and, above all, voice. I almost never identify actors in the movies (as they change their appearances professionally and I have trouble in remembering actual facial features), and it is out of question for me to remember anyone's face after several months. Especially when the haircut changes.
I thought it is relatively common condition (around 2% of people). But other people seem to be genuinely surprised by it every time: "how could you not recognize me? I have passed directly in front of you?" Sorry.
