  1. Hi Gatsby, Thanks for being such an inspiration to all us "baldies"! You give me so much hope that a NW6/7 like me can get rid of "piece" and have hair 1 day. Personally I have some other priorities so I am still a few years out on this. Your and @Zoomster result are awe inspiring! And also, I was researching SMP (as you might remeber) but I am going to straight for the HT now. Thanks so much!
  2. I still can't believe the results! A true inspiration for us all!
  3. So very sorry for the delay in responding Gatsby! Thanks for your valued opinion and once again I am very happy for your great result! take care!
  4. Hey Gatsby, so happy about your result, it looks awesome! if you don't mind answering how much did it all cost? ATM I cannot do that hair transplant for various reasons (not only cost related) so I am really considering SMP to get me out of my piece. As I get older I am fairly active, so I am finding the piece, while looks good most times is a real hindrance in my fitness journey. So I am looking at SMP and then will consider a HT at 55ish. Did the SMP cause any issues for the doctors? Any any other thoughts or recommendations? Again, congrats, the result like Zoomster is awesome!
  5. ah, so you shaved and just went with that? Wish I has balls to do that!
  6. Thanks Ciaus, that's quite an astute observation. I have my hair like that for a few reasons.. 1. I feel like hair off the forehead with some body frames the face, more so for people like me with a round face like moi! 2. I am still stuck in the 80's when I used to do my "real" hair like that I am not looking for attention TBH but I am at the point that after 25 years of wearing a piece I really dont care if people know. I have told mostly all my friends. In fact, some of the people at the gym that I've gotten know (gym friends) I am almost want to tell them..two of them are skin bald like me 🤭 I just dont want people to see me bald 🤦‍♂️ PS I've updated my profile pic on how it really looks. That was old pic, taken at home. It was a bit "bouffant" as my wife would say. I dont go out with it like that.
  7. I am strongly considering getting SMP. Has anyone got it and then regretted it? Feel free to to send me a private message.
  8. Awesome results and your are located in Toronto! At this point, I have been looking at travelling to the US and UK as I havent found any clinic local with great work, UNTIL NOW! I will review your work and reach out!
  9. I have Zoomster..at this point I am considering SMP first then a HT but I keep chickening out TBH. The thought of removing my "system" and people seeing me with a bald head freaks me out! In fact, lately in the gym I have a number to folks tell me that I have great "hair" for my age 😵 I can't tell if they are making fun of me or actually fooled. So going from that to a bald head is not something I look forward to even with SMP. Also sometimes I think with SMP you can tell. I dont want a bad tattoo on my head! So I am conflicted and basically frozen with inaction. In fact, I have twice booked a SMP session, paid a deposit and then chickened out!! FML
  10. Zoomster what can I say, you have an awesome result! TBH I am still sitting on the fence on between SMP and Eugenix. I am NW7 and I see a number of these cases with failed HT's on the SMP sites. I am not sure why these have failed but congrats you a great result.
  11. Ive been offline for a while am just catching up Zoomster..your results continue to amaze!!!
  12. @Zoomster awesome results keep coming! thanks for sharing and giving the rest of us NW7's hope! As you know I am following a similar path. In prep for a HT next year, I am on finisteride. I am .5mg per day, up from .25. I think I did have some mild effects but they are gone now. next month I am looking to up it to 1mg per day. I know you are not a doctor but curious as to why you are taking 1.25mg 3 days a week?
  13. @JohnAC71 a few things 1. Primarily I really want to get rid of this "system" ASAP. I have been wearing for almost 25 years. I am over it not to mention Ive had a few comments where people have called me out. So if I get a hair transplant I will have to shave my head and go with the skin bald look and wait for it grow (growing/shedding etc). Basically everyone will know I was/am bald. So SMP will look like I just shaved my head or at least fool the people that made the comments - LOL! 2. I am NW7 underneath all this hair 😊 so I am not completely sure how a HT would turnout although I have seen some awesome results from Eugenix on NW7's. So I am going to try SMP and see how it looks and how I feel. I might just NOT get a HT, but TBH if Stallone can do it at 65 than so can I 😁 3. India has one of the largest breakouts of COVID so I think there a TON of restrictions, so not sure how the climate is there at the moment...
