Delancey is spot on! You read my mind! I seen many people in my city, young guys, borderline nw5's walking around with strip scars. They have not researched and simply jumped on the wagon. When I got mine done, I went to a new barber. I was around 3 weeks post op. He said my hair transplant is the most cleanest and excellent job he had seen. He noted, being a barber for 20 years, my hair transplant stood out from the rest. And he is a nw7 himself!
