Hairfree,

I can't even believe that it's been that long! Is it really one year already? That's incredible. I guess time flies when you are having fun eh? And with a new head of hair like you have, I bet you are living in a new found confidence and feeling quite good about your appearance these days!

It was only a few months ago that I saw your results in person and was blown away with how natural and thick your transplanted hair is. You are truly an inspiration.

Thanks for coming back to update us and I hope we can get together in the near future.

Best wishes,

Bill

Hairfree, You got to love your new confidence, I'm sure! Dr. Rahal and his great techs are, without a doubt, the ones who can get the great results. How many grafts did you receive? That is amazing!!!!

Thats what I call one and done. I wish some of these other conservative surgeons would try and take this approach more often. This is also why Rahal is in my top 5 . 95% of other surgeons out there have never once turned out a final result like this.
Rahal does it on a daily basis, with a thin scar

hey hairfee

Your results look great bud , happy for you and I bet they look good in person too , but I have to ask , are you wearing any products or concealers in the after shot ? , your hair , to me looks very dark and matted .

Please could you post some clear outside and wet pics , no offence but it is always clearer with outside sunny day time shots to evaluate any progress .

thanks bud

Bill - Thanks man! One thing that I can definately say about my new head of hair is that I don't even think about it anymore in social situations. I am not self conscious about it and when I am talking to people I don't even think about how my hair is looking. Before, I was thinking about my hairloss too much that it was over taking my life to a certain degree. I will give you a call to catch up.

Its752, HTinthefuture - I had almost 3500 grafts done and it came out to be more than 7000 hairs. I forget the exact number. You can do a search on me on this site to find more pictures and my progress from months 0 to 7. You will find details there.

I use a couple hair products and I reccomend everyone to give it a try:

1. LoReal Studioline Weightless Texturizer gel its also named Out of Bed gel. I put a dash of the gel into palms and spread evenly out on both hands and rub my hands on the top of my hair gently back and forth SIDEWAYS. It takes out any fitz and give it a shiny spiked look without making it appear thin. Its not going to thicken it up but at least its not too heavy and thin in appearence. After I get done with this gel I apply a small amount American Crew Pomade to hairline. (see below)

2. American Crew Pomade. Sometimes I will put a very small dash in my palm and spread it out over the hands and rub into the hair back and forth from front to back to give it a messy look when I get out of the shower but most of the time I follow the step above with the LoReal Gel and then follow that with just a small dash pomade on my finger tip and thumb and apply it to the hairs at the hairline. It makes the hairline appear shiny and doesn't make it thin in appearance.

The photos were taken 6 hours after I put in the hair gel so the shine isn't as evident because I usually rub it throughout the day with my hands however the darker appearence is still there.

I have been wearing my hair very short lately and buzzing it down with a #2 clip on my own. Right now in the pics I havent cut it for almost 3 weeks. I had my hair much longer for my wedding back in October. I like the shorter cut on me though.

I don't not have any concealers in the hair and the hair stands under all lights. I will get some pictures for outside in the natural daylight. No light is stronger than that and will also add some wet photos.

I updated my gallery with some older photos from months 5 and 8. Some of them with the hair wet, combed forward and back dry without any products. I like wearing gel in my hair but wanted to show pics without any.
