so i went to the hair transplant clinic

[240 is Back]

those scars can look horrible on people.  I think that is why I never considered a transplant.  Lebron probably had the best surgeon around, and his line in back is obvious.

Plus, I see a lot of local guys in the entertainment industry that got hair transplants in their late 30s....  Now  they're in late 40s, and these large gaps are forming on their head - behind the transplant part.  It's like a big wave of fake big hair... then a half inch gap... then a bunch of thin, old looking hair.  If/when they do decide to buzz it, I can't imagine how funky that scalp will be.  

If you work out, make okay $, and have your shht together... and you're over 30... most women don't care.

You'll get plenty of females at 26 saying "Oh, I'll never date a bald man!"  Then, the world kicks them a bit, people stop buying them drinks and holding doors, and all the guys that used to worship them are suddenly hitting on the 22 year olds...   Then suddenly the bald dude with a nice home, job and body ain't so bad.   However, the bald dude probably just wants the 22 year old gold diggers...

Soon Anabolichalo will be headhunting immigrants for their bushy tops.

Hollywood will chime in with a sensitive movie...

I'm considering it. I'm 25 but look 35 and it will just get worse. I give myself a 0.5 all over but thats not through choice.  

My mother's dad was balding in his 20's so there is surely some truth in what the doctor said.

Hopefully they'll reduce the costs once transplants becomes more common.
I live in hope.

Just go for the Horseshoe look buddy, looks great and the girls love it! or you could rock the Horseshoe and the combover together and nobody would ever know the difference,

No need for an expensive hair transplant, these are a couple of useful options you might want to consider...

This is the best advise I have heard on hair transplants. 

[StreetSoldier4U]

Fue can cause noticeable scarring if poorly done.  Instead of a scar line from ear to ear you get tiny dots.

[visualizeperfection]

there have been big improvements since joe rogan had his done.

[The True Adonis]

just for info and price inquiry.

was very interesting.the guy who runs and owns it, got bald early on, this drove him to start the clinic, he was actualy one of his first customers aswel, showed me pics, his hair not just hairline, was fucked at age 22.now hes 50+ and almost full head of hair.

talking to him was hilarious, as if he was anabolichalos brother.
said things like yeah you can forget about the bs how this and that actor is sexy, they wouldnt be wo the money, etc, and mentioned how even the quality and quantity of womens hair has drasticaly come down, shown me before and after pics of women aswel, my goodness they looked like shit before.

he even brought me into the "operation" room where they were removing the hair from back of the head from a patient, for me to see how they work, i gotta say what a bloody mess, the blood is pouring from all over the head, for every hair and root pulled out, theres a suprisingly huge hole left, and blood shoots out like estrogen shots out of shittos pores when hes sweating.

he told me pretty much first thing that ill never go bald, we discuseed the role of steroids for hairloss(his conclusion was simply"well they just make it happen"), and the price for my small spots on top of the head,those 2 spots,left and right, he said that almost nothing, would look like 20yrs young again, barely 1000hairs needed,but we do 2000 to make it look realy tight and full for the same price.

well when he said the price is told him no man, i dont want gold coated hairs

so in conclusion, for this little bit minimum that id do, its affordable, but those who have their half skull balding, itll cost a fortune of moneys.

btw he said, best guess is look at the mothers dad, in almost all the cases, youll have similiar hair destiny.i asked but isnt that a bro scienece myth,he went on and explained it with doctor terms, so guess its not a myth.
gotta say my granddad has the same exact hairline and very same spots where its turned grey,exact same everything.

ah yeah, and the re implanted hairs, even if placed where the androgen receptors are, will not fall out anymore.no finsteride needed, not hing lke that, would say he is one good example of proof for that.

again i forgot much about the chat already but when he mentioned the psychological implications the hairloss had on him and some patients, that was so hilarious, my stomach cramped from laughter.

so yeah, just like instead of worrying about gyno, jst fix it when it happens.

costs money yeah.

It always ends up looks stupid as the face ages.  Look at Mark Whalberg for christ sake.  Looks like a shit on his head.

No doubt but they still do strip procedures for larger yields and one must be realistic on how much coverage they will obtain.  If someone begins transplants in their 20's their hairlines will look very different in their 40's and they need to be aware of that.  There is only so much yield available and everyone is different.

Shave it or embrace the combover. Quit being pussies. Halo, you're turning into quite the twink. Act like a man.

follicular extraction leaves no scars

only strip method


learn the difference it can save your life

You're absolutely wrong.

Look things up a bit before assuming. While follicular extraction doesn't leave a linear scar, it WILL leave small circular scars that look like small pot holes.

Example:





While it would seem easier to cover up than a large linear scar, it does in fact leave scarring. Think about what happens when they removed an entire hair follicles and surrounding tissue, it inadvertently leaves a scar. Clearly, if you have a lot of density in those areas where follicles are extracted from, you might achieve better coverage of said scars, but if like most of those guys that go bald, you have sparse density all throughout your head, it will be apparent enough.

This is the best advise I have heard on hair transplants. 

Always thought Rogan had a good look despite balding.

Thick beard, tanned and jacked more than compensated for the loss.

[Soul Crusher]

I shaved it off a long time ago - after 15 minutes - no one cares at all.  

One of my friends spent 40k on one - but it looks good.

I don`t think it ever looks right.  The face will never match the hair.

Looks good is of course relative when it comes to hair transplant  - you can still tell

Its hilarious really.  No idea why anyone would bother with it.

[OneMoreRep]

Damn, onemorerep

that's some good information and evidence right there!

Be careful and don't buy into any of that stuff. I think a man can look very good with a shaven head. Look at Soul Crusher and 240, both of these gentlemen keep themselves in good shape, are well groomed overall and sport a shaved head. Bald can be beautiful.

Look at some mainstream examples (Money and fame aside):

Staying fit is far more important than anything.   Agreed

Channing Tatum doesn't count
he shaves his shit
no lame horseshoe pattern baldness

dj181 is bald and just wears a hat.

I heard he is going bald and manifesting the initial signs of male pattern baldness.

Here are some pics which show what he is dealing with. Granted, in the world of Hollywood it is hard to tell as most of these men live with all sorts of shit placed into their hair (wigs, concealers, microfibers of some sort etc.).

A few years back...


As of recent (Notice those temples going far back)


In other words, he will soon end up here:

[Soul Crusher]

I looked into everything - lace lines, finsteride, surgery, wig, you name it.

In the end - just easier to shave it off and deal with it

[240 is Back]

Bald really is more intimidating in real life.  You have to embrace it.  You have to just punch it in the face and become it.  

I'm buzzed at the moment.  I still have a lot up top... just went thin, not bald, in the temples and crown.  A little fuzz is nice.
