A thin-film magnetic head includes a spin-valve thin-film magnetic element, first and second insulating layers, and first and second shielding layers. The spin-valve thin-film magnetic element includes a free magnetic layer, a nonmagnetic conductive layer, a pinned magnetic layer, an antiferromagnetic layer, a pair of bias layers, and a pair of conductive layers. The pair of conductive layers is located on one side in the thickness direction of the free magnetic layer, and the pair of bias layers is located on the other side in the thickness direction of the free magnetic layer, is disposed on both sides in the track width direction of at least a portion of the second insulating layer, and is in contact with the free magnetic layer.
