Even my hairdresser asked me what kind of accident my scar came from. Good luck with the growth man, what a change it will be!
THAT is a very interesting thing, indeed. I've never thought of it quite like that, but I can see how that's the case. B spot, you've got a great attitude about it. All the best to you as your look changes. I am looking forward to your great results.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

Hello again!! finally got around to posting some new pictures Gents!!!! I took these right at 3 months, and boys I have to tell you... If early returns are any indication, I am going to be one happy SOB a few moths from now
I am excited with my progress as people have been asking if I am losing weight or my face looks thinner.... etc. I know it is only a little bit of growth but wowie zowie!!!!! (or Holy Shit!) I have been so busy that 3 months has flown by, so hopefully that will be the case in the coming months. As always, I will post more photos!!!!!!!

Ok Fella's 7 month update!!!! Sorry this took so long, I finally got my camera repaired!!!! I am pretty stoked by the whole process, to be honest! I realized walking in the door that I would need at LEAST 2 HT's, possibly 3. I cannot begin to tell you how my family and friends cannot believe that my hair was transplanted. They simply cannot fathom that ALL of the hair on top was moved from one spot to the other, and you can't tell!!!!

Anyway, if you look at the side shots, you will see the separation that occured after some of my side were shocked out. This will be addressed during #2, as well as going through the front half again, and into the crown this time. Dr. Shapiro and I are going to go for 4000+ grafts next time, and that would bring me to about 7100 grafts total, which should really make an impact on my overall density and hopefully give me *some* decent coverage in my crown (enough to lighten up and comb over!)
I am in the middle of my journey, but I can start to imagine the light at this point. For those of you just starting, chin up!!!! For those of you that are finished, I hope to join you in the coming months!!!!!!!!!!!! I shall return!!!!!!!!!!

B,

Thanks for posting your progress. It looks great. I think you've really gotten great results from the number of grafts you had. should you end up with another 4000........it should provide enough for the appearance of density all over.

Thanks Bank---- You know, the length of my hair is at that weird stage where it sticks straight up and I refuse to "gel" my hair, so it looks a little weird. The hairline is awesome, and in the close-up I kind of bent my head forward a little and ran my hands through it to show the density achieved. Still a long way to go, but if I get another 2000 in the front half, and then spread whatever else I get in back, I think I will have achieved more than I could have ever hoped for. Who knows, maybe I will have more left over after my next one, enough to put the finishing point on the entire thing!!
