Hi guys, Im new this site and the information available is pretty amazing. I hope that through fellow comrades I can get help with my situation and lead a better life !!

Ive been wearing a hair syatem now for 5 years and am fed up. I am fed up with comments, maintenance, cost and recently my scalp seems to be reacting. Therefore I think the time is right. I wish I had FUE in the first place as it would not be so obvious but I guess the technology is better now than ever before.

But my dilema is that I cant just shave my hair off and get FUE done due to my work and being unable to take loads of time off, also I dont want to shave off the sides or down to a low level.

I would really appreciate some guidance firstly on decent clinics in London. I am starting to reasearch them but I'd rather visit one that has been tried and tested by the good members of this forum.

I would also like to know the actual recovery process. Many websites claim its all fine the next day etc but pictures on this forum suggest otherwise. Does it take say on average one week for the redness to dissapear?

Lastly, has anyone managed to sucessfully get FUE done and still use their hair system for a period of time? My system is lightly held on with minimal tape around the edges so it should not interfere with the HT. I can also take it off at night etc. but the icing on the cake would be to find a clinic that works with hair system users where they can implant and cover over a few sessions.

I know i need to maintain the new hair which is fine, I can take it off and wash it each night if I have to.

My plan would be to wait say 6 months and when the new hair comes through properly to then have a nice short cut all over.

I really look forward to hearing from you guys.
