  1. The no shave docs I'm familiar with (I had strip) include Beehner and True/Dorin in NY, and Cooley in NC. You might start there. All do FUE, as far as I know. They will still need to shave portions of the back of your head, but even that can be camouflaged for a small session. Of course if you can take a whole month off, I wouldn't be too concerned. Even if you shave entirely, there won't be much evidence of a HT after a month of healing/ native hair growing out.
  2. Sounds like you're nicely on the mend. It wouldn't worry too much about going back to work in 10 days. I actually went back (office environment, no hat) 2 days after the procedure. Yeah, there was some redness and some red specks under my existing hair, but nothing too noticeable. If I remember right from my last procedure, you'll have some dandruff-looking shedding at around day 7, but gone quickly. With all that thick native hair you have, should be no trouble masking the stubby new hairs until they shed in the next two weeks or so.
  3. Keith, I had mine yesterday, and I guess you must have been there today when I stopped in for my follow-up. I echo all of your praises toward Dr. Cooley and everyone there. That is going to look great. Looking forward to following your progress. Hope to post mine soon.
  4. Very nice! I had my procedure with Dr. Cooley & his staff yesterday. They're great.
