  1. My advice is if you can't pay for it in full then you probably shouldn't consider yourself a candidate. A hair transplant is not a heart transplant. You don't need it, but it sure could be a nice improvement for some people. It is a luxury, not a necessity. If you can't pay outright then I think you should re-evaluate your priorities and finances. Going down this path can be very costly because hair loss is not something you can completely stop even with medication. You will need additional surgeries down the road. What if you are still paying off your first and now need a second? Or are having trouble paying for the costly meds? There are too many necessary life expenses that can pop up on us any day and if you are strapped for cash because of a cosmetic surgery then you will be in bad shape man.

     

    If I was your friend I would tell you to just shave your head for now and continue to work and move up the totem pole in your career till one day you have the money and to reevaluate if you still want to do it.

     

     

    Thanks for your opinion but how do you know what I'll need down the road? I'm not borrowing Libya's deficit , my loan is €20 per week over 2 years I'm sure I can manage it.I'm not on any costly meds, I take beta sitosterol the odd day which I can get in the local health shop for cheap,which does the same as that poison propecia.I understand what your trying to say but I'm all for anyone that wants to improve themselves be it with learning a new language, new clothes, nose job or hair transplant, instead of pissing it against a wall and being a miserable git. :)

  2. Well done for getting the loan. Who cares what bs you tell them as long as they give you the bloody money.

     

    You said your not telling anyone, if you have a bird though, it's going to be very hard to keep it from her, unless you don't see her for a month.

     

    What clinic are you going to in turkey.?

     

    Thanks, yeah exactly who cares as long as it is paid back.Trust me I will be doing cartwheels going in payin if off every week while the growth is coming in,unlike if I was to get it and spunk it away on a 2 week holiday in Ibiza!

  3. I opened credit cards for each of my HTs with 0% offers I had received. Paid each off monthly by the time the offer expired (12-18 months). Helped me build a solid line of credit and get a solid head of hair. Just make sure you pay that bill monthly.

     

    Yes it's very important to make the payments on time.It doesn't matter if it's €80 or €280 a month, you never know when you might need it again.I could go out and spend it on a car etc, but I think having more confidence and feeling better will make you get out there and do whatever you want to do.

  4. Well. I don't want to comment on your "white lies", but instead tell you what my thoughts was about the money aspect of my hair transplant. I've had 3 nose surgeries for my past as a boxer (FESS + 2 times septum deviation), and I've never been told that a septum deviation was life threatening ;-)

     

    A deviated septum may cause sleep apnea, a serious condition in which a person stops breathing during sleep.,so yeah even though it was a white lie it is a condition. She would have laughed at me had I of said it was for a very vain cosmetic op called a fue hair transplant.:)

  5. I had an appointment with a credit union in Ireland last week, I had only been with them for a few months but have over 1100 saved but wanted to get a loan of 3000 for my fue op which I hoped to get done at the start of Dec, so the women who " assesses" whether I'm a suitable candidate for a loan started asking me what I wanted it for.So without thinking I said for a nose operation in Turkey,so long story short she said she'd have trouble getting it passed cause "it's cosmetic,i'm not in full time employment,etc"( thoughts of another less than happy summer ahead,looking in mirrors, running from cameras ran throughout head :D .She said she would call me in 2 days and let me know.

     

     

    The 2nd day came and the phone went and along came the words I knew were coming "sorry we just don't think it's a prudent loan,it's been unsuccessful" I just started coming out with all kinds of shite, saying i was appealing the decision and that she didn't treat me fair at the appointment, i also told her I have a deviated septum and i can't sleep at all,and asked her "don't people get loans for holidays,isn't my life threatening condition more important than a holiday". We came to an agreement and I ended up getting a loan haha the things us men will do for a new hairline,bring on summer 2014 :D

  6. Hi everyone am back in Uk and its been 11 days since my Ht.

     

    They said i received 3500 grafts, could everyone give their opinion if it looks like i received that amount. Also what does everyone think of the result so far? I HOPE i got good amount of coverage and density.

     

    They said they could only take out 3500 grafts out and there was no more left as i wanted more but unfortunately that's what they said. They suggested me to send them pictures after 6 month to see if i could have another Ht but i don't want to go for another Ht.

     

     

    am nervous so far and would like so assuring.

     

    I will later write mt full experience how everything went and the whole process.

     

    If any one would like to know anything or would like to suggest me or help me any way please feel free to let me know.

     

     

     

    I would appreciate everyone's comment

     

    Thanks

    Hi Rumon, i can't really see it that clear but it seems like the grafts at the front ESP the left side are too far apart? Maybe just my eyes playing tricks.Best of luck with it anyway!

  7. In my eyes I guess it depends on how quick you can recover and look normal again.

     

    Around the holidays I spend a lot of time with family so, laying low and undetected isn't much of an option for me.

     

    I would book right after the new year and grow into the summer.

     

    Yes true,laying low is hard at that time of the year, but if I do go ahead with mid Nov, i should look fine around Xmas and NYE ( my bday) right?

  8. That's exactly what I was thinking also, get over the hump, and hopefully see a change for the better when the weather starts to come round a bit.I wear a beanie hat during the winter anyway.That's one of the reasons I planned to get it done when it's cold so I won't look outta place with a hat. Thanks for the advice aswell,every little bit helps.

  9. I have been full of excitement and nervousness at the thought of finally getting the procedure done, but would it be a good idea to go ahead and book it for say mid/end Nov or wait until after Xmas.At that time of the year as everyone knows is very busy with more family and friends about which means more photos! ( can't wait for the day I don't run from a camera) :). I suppose I could always get it done then use toppik to cover the red marks.
