Default Coolant loss

Have been putting antifreeze in car last couple days , it's not leaking anywhere that o can see. Checked oil no signs of water. Pulled plugs they also look good. Did a pressure test on the radiator checked good there also pulled plugs with cooling system pressurized thinking it would drop if headgasket was leaking but it didn't.

No smoke at all thats what threw me off.But checked for exhaust in coolant last night and think it might be leaking in on the comp. stroke and presserizing my coolant system and blowing it out the overflow.Didnt have enuff dye to really check right but think its gonna be the gasket.Any other way to check if its really the headgasket, seems they are a common problem.
