In what month following your HT did you stop feeling like a bald guy?

I know this isnt the usual type of question but I was curious about peoples mind sets after good HTs. Any answers would be much appreciated.

Wantego,

Sometimes I still forget that I'm not bald anymore, until I look in the mirror and remind myself that I have hair again. The "bald man" (or woman) image takes some time to escape, and is usually much more psychological than physicial.

Best wishes,

Bill

With my growth beginning and family members taking notice and looking at my head in amazement and saying "the way you are growing you are not going to be bald anymore" makes me think that between six and nine months I may be almost able to say I am no longer bald.

I cannot wait for that day, but am curious about how I am going to handle friends of mine who ask "what is going on up there?!".

I'm glad to hear people are noticing improvement. You deserve a great result. You did your research and you are a really good poster. When you think of a good answer to that whats going on up there question tell us all!! It is a good question to have to answer!!
