  1. It is true that i could of gotten a HT, but the consultant adviced against it because it would not have a great look. Sure they could of transplanted hair but it would just have looked thin and just plain bad. I have low density and thin hair, so it would just have been a waste of money to make me look terrible. The hair around my sides and back is already really see-through and the top would have been a lot worse. I have since then been slowly getting used to shaving my head. I even showed up to places with friends and family without covering up. I still wear a lot of beanies and hats, but I believe I will move on. It is a surprise to some people that say "oh you shaved, why?" They don't mean it in a bad way... they just don't know how bad my hair is because I never show it and they think I still have a good head of hair for my age. All in all though, it is not a big deal to them. And as far is women.... I can't really tell yet because I haven't tried, but I'm hoping there is someone who doesn't care. I still feel that women my age will find it to be a turn off. Still not giving up though.
  2. Yeah ive been reading about those before. Thats what i had in mind when i said 5-10 years. Plus it will be really expensive when it does happen.
  3. Thanks for the thoughts. Ive been on fin for years now. I probably wouldnt have any hair on top of it wasnt for fin. Im getting used to the thought of my hair gone but not really there yet. I showed a few friends and family with my hair buzzed. My friends were like yea finally man lol. My family thought it was a style choice but didnt really think it was a big deal either. I think its going to be another 5-10 years for anything viable as far as teatments go. Im staying on fin just to keep my hair from getting to the "horse shoe" look as long as possible. If something worthwile comes along Ill try it, bit im not getting my hopes up and i might not care anymore by then.
  4. I know exactly what good hair does for someone. If there is a good method out there and im financially able to do it, I probably will.
  5. Future generations are so lucky. A decade is too late for me. If I have the money at that point and it still matters I might do it, but unlikely as it will probably be a fortune and hopefully I wont care anymore.
  6. Im hoping i can cope with the shaved head. Good luck with ur ht. Hope it works out for you.
  7. I think in 15-20 years there should be something good for hair loss. Probably unlimited donor supply. As far as micropigmentation. The person who touches it will probably be who I will worry about. I'm talking about in a dating situation. It will be awkward and embarrassing.
  8. @nick153452 yeah it definitely sucks. It sucks more now that I know I wasted all these years just to be in the same position. I could of had a better buzzed down look earlier and worked my way to the present and still had a social life. Probably would of been in a better place right now.
  9. Ive used concealers before. I dont like how they leave a mark if touched. Ill just stay on fin for now.
  10. Surgery was cancelled because I was not a good candidate due to my diffuse hair loss.
  11. You guys are right. My confidence is the issue here. I am trying really hard to gain it. Thats why I have a long term plan. I just know myself and it will take me a while to build up to it. The reason it will be a while is I plan on getting in shape by xmas and getting my look together along with my attitude towards myself. I figure six months and I can get myself in a good spot in all areas. If I try to go out now, I will be way out of my comfort zone and it will show. I'm trying to minimize that. I know my self-esteem is bad and I'm working on it because, like you said and I've heard many times, confidence is what matters.
  12. I dont trust bosley. Plus my sister screwed up my credit with ge.
  13. At this point Ive decided to use my savings for other things. Ht is too expensive to risk for a probable good outcome. Im just going to have to accept it. If not now then when im old and it doesnt matter. Im hoping i can get over it.
  14. I don't like to compare celebrities because they have their fame to backup their success with women. And they have great facial features for a shaved look too which i dont believe i have.
