Can you take a look at the attached pic and let me know what color toppik you think would most closely match my hair color. I would appreciate advice from those who have experience with the product. Also, any suggestions on where to buy and best way to apply would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hey New-

Did you decide what to do about concealing the recipient area?? There are a couple of good threads here for you to review...but again you know how I feel about it.

Let it heal, breathe and the pinkness will go away on its own. I would be afraid of dependency on the concealer.

Hi Eman,
I actually purchased some dermmatch (light brown) but decided not to use at this time and take your advice to heal and breath. I am just walking around with the worst combover in the history of combovers, to hide the red/pink. Thanks for the solid advice.

Sport that comb-over with pride...it won't be long until there will be no need to do that with your new locks!!

When the front fills in, no one will remember the old school comb-over. Like we talked about, you won't regret not using concealer.

Eman

Thanks, again, Eman. Things seem to be improving everyday as you suggested. Yesterday, I met with some people at work that I have not seen since I been back, and I did not get the look, if you know what I mean.

That's good to hear.
However, as a long time Toppik user, I would listen to Eman's advice on this one... It won't really help.

Also, if the pink area doesn't heal fully, you can try an alternative concealing + healing with Hair Max (promotional link removed - read our terms of service you agreed to) which contains Dead Sea salt that can really help you with the pink skin.

Hope this helps and good luck!
