Loosing your hair is traumatic. Combing over is silly. Hair systems are obvious. Hair transplants leave scars. Shaving it and being bald is paradoxically the solution. Post shave my confidence has soared and I truly like the way I look. You wanna show balls and ooze confidence? Just shave it.

I got this weird thin spot on the top of my head that you can only see when i shave my head short (like a 1 or 2). When the hair is longer you cant see it at all, it looks totally normal.

Even looking back in photos of me from like 2 years ago I've got the same weird thin spot.

The weird thing is there is kind of a lump there, in the exact place where it looks thin, so is it possible that it just looks weird because it's sort of raised or something? Anyone had anything like this before?

It was alright. Before the procedure, you have to do a blood test. Just to see how fast your blood clots and sugar level and such.

During the procedure, the only painful part is the first injection to numb your head. After that your head feels nothing. They extract your hair one by one and when they are inserting it they individually do it when placing as well.

For me, it took them 8 hours. I slept through it mostly. First they extracted my hairs for 4 hours. After they extract your hair, you take a break. You can move around and eat, take a bathroom break and such. Once they continue again, it'll be another 4 hours for them to implant those hairs graphs.

They tell you to rest your head for a few 3 days and you get medication painkillers and other anti-biotics for 5 days.

You can't wear a hat or wash your head directly in the shower for at least two weeks due to the heavy pressure from the shower heads directed towards your head. So you have to use a spray or a small bucket or jug or something.

You have to not go to the gym or any intense activity for 20 days for the proper head wash. During those 15 days, you'll first notice growth of your hair around the areas needed but after the 15th day, you'll notice your transplanted hair falling. After the 20th day for the proper wash, all your transplanted hair will disappear. This is normal.

I recommend it earlier than later because they need a lot of hair to exact from a place and insert it on another. I got 3000 graphs on my head, because they had a lot to work with. But if you're doing it when you have less hair, it'll take your more procedures since they only have little to work with.

>But if you're doing it when you have less hair, it'll take your more procedures since they only have little to work with.

Everything you said is false. It's better to do it LATER then sooner.Your hair will continue to fall out and you will continue to bald. If you transplant onto places which are still balding you will get VERY patchy as fuck since your new hair will stay yet your old hair will continue to fall out so you will look like a patchy hobo.

Your logic is also retarded, just because you use it now to avoid is falling out before you use it is retarded.
1. If it was going to fall out/bald before it will fall out/bald as soon as it's transplanted
2. It does not matter if you use hair from your neck because that hair will always continue to grow. So you do not need to do this sooner then later. Again, it's better LATEr because you will have the areas already fully balded and ready for a transplant.

I think it's something to do with modern lifestyles in general, I went to mainland China 20 years ago and baldness was almost completely unheard except in extremely old men, now it's common even among young men.
>>
>>36526545

My main board is pol and a running joke we have is how all the effeminate hipsters are prematurely balding.

4chan attracts the low 20s crowd (at least outside of /b/), which is when people are super freaked out about balding. I imagine that's all it is.
>>
>>36526562
>effeminate hipsters are prematurely balding

It's DHT that causes MPB though
>>
>>36526383
It's not my logic. It's the logic of the doctors who work in the field. So, it rather trust their experience than an opinion than some anon on /fit/.
>>
>>36526548
Serum test and DHT levels have surprisingly little correlation with baldness, on average balding men actually have lower test levels than nonbalding men, it's just that DHT hyper accumulates in the scalp of balding men
>>
>>36526312
and when the transplanted hair starts to fall out as well you will not only be bald, but scarred as fuck

and as we all know scar tissue is weaker so your chances of skin cancer will be increased. enjoy your dilemma you shallow fag :)

>when the transplanted hair starts to fall out as well you will not only be bald, but scarred as fuck

FUE is different than FUT. They extract the hair individually, leaving little to no scar. The scars will be so small, they wont be noticeable. Specially since the donor area is where the hair is going to last.

The transplanted hairs will not fall out. The type of baldness pattern I have is called the donut shaped. Baldness in the top and hair around the back and sides.The transplanted hair are as preeminent as the back of the head hair.

The way to increase the thickness and reduce my non-transplanted hair loss, they told me to get hair growth tablets and use it for 3-6 months.

They are also giving me a free prp session to thicken my hairs as well.

As you can see, even at end of 2 months beginning of 3, I've started getting growth but it'll take more time for it to get better.

So, overall I am actually pretty satisfied with it.
>>
>>36526637
You are correct, people who are getting bald have hair follicles that are sensitive to DHT, if you have resistant hair follicles you can have infinitely high DHT levels and you won't lose hair. Genetics are a bitch and fuck evolution.

Back in the day it would. Now they extract the are individually.

The method you mentioned called FUT where they cut off a large chunk of the area and it left a huge scar. Now they use a FUE method, little more expensive and takes more time during the surgery but leaves little to no scars because they are extracting the hair individually.

There are videos on youtube to see the difference. As well as the scars left behind. The FUE method practically doesn't show any scars.

Dark brown and no you are not balding. That's just where your hair parts.

>>36525766
>>36526088
Fox and grapes
>>
>>36527101
Not him, but if you're doing it to reinforce thin areas then there's literally no downsides. Unless you're poor and the cost is a downside to you.

If you're using it to fight a receding hairline, the con is that it has to be done when you're sure that your hairline won't degrade furter. The transplanted hair is almost immortal, and won't be influenced by the rest of your baldness. So if they transplant a new hairline for you, but the natural one keeps receding, you will have a noticeable line of healthy hair with a hella weird line-shaped bald part behind it.

If your hair is thinning do yourself a favour and SHAVE
