This is pretty much bang on. changing hairstyles cud get u another year or two easily. Depends on ur level of hair greed ultimately. For me, to be confined to having a particular hairstyle is a big step up from having no hair at all. Best of luck mate.

So I'm just over 7 months since my HT and I have to say I'm delighted with my result so far. I only had 2050 grafts done and it's pretty much the best thing iv ever done in my life. Everyone is asking me what iv done. I'm amazed how well my surgeon Dr.saifi used 2000 grafts over such a large area. I posted him a picture at 6months to show progress and he said it's too early to be checking and that he expects me to get growth at month 8 and month 10 which I'd be stunned if there was anymore growth left :-D anyway iv put together comparison pics to give an idea of how far I have come. The last pic was taken in the harshest sunlight possible and it isn't dry either so it is realistic, also styling plays a massive part in how gud it looks as any high Norwood with a HT will tell. I use every trick in the book ;-) it's all about illusion. anyway any questions fire away. I won't be updating for a while after this I'd imagine ;-)

Everything looks to be going to plan. just a waiting game for you now

Looks great for 4 months man I think you are going to have a great result. Happy growing

This is a sick sick result man can't stop laughing/smiling when I see the pics coz it's like dammmmmnnnnn. You must be delighted. Enjoy it mate.

You can message me anytime if you have questions man no problem. Ya I put it in dry usually. You can use it on wet hair also just holds better if it's put into dry hair

Ya that's the very one mate it will give a light hold and is gud for the hair. As for the shampoos they are a little expensive but I still have plenty left in my bottles after 6 months coz I use a small amount each wash. Here's the two I use hair loss prevention shampoo - Hair loss prevention Line - Tricology | Cesare Ragazzi Laboratories hygienising shampoo - Extra care Line - Tricology | Cesare Ragazzi Laboratories

Cheers mate. I use CR LAB product shampoos recommended by my surgeon. They are Italian products. Cesare Ragazzi Labratories shampoos. A hair loss prevention one and a cleansing of scalp one. I'm not sure what factor they have played but they don't seem to hurt ha. Also one of the guys on here escrec put me onto a leave in conditioner called shea moisture - raw shea butter restorative conditioner which I use to style my hair as it's very light

Thanks dolph I have to agree with you best money I ever spent. No car could give this feeling

No sorry mate. Dont have numbers. A lot were used in the front then they were worked back along using less and less as he worked back. None were put in the crown. You can see from the post op pics how the grafts were distributed

Thanks very much harin, as far as I'm aware docs have to pay a fee to be recommended on this site for site upkeep etc and he gets enough work without having to advertise much. I do think there are a number of docs out there who are not recommended on here who do great work

Cheers mate means a lot coming frm you It was all worth it in the end. The hairline is actually a mixture of what hair I had left and where the new hairline started. Dr Saifi said he would blend it nicely with what hair I had left and in the event of those inevitably falling out it will still look natural. I'm obviously sweating over how long I can keep my native hair in general but for the moment I'm really enjoying this "do"

Back again for 6 month update. I have seen some changes since last update it just seems to thicken each week. I still have one area in mid-scalp with slight weakness which can be seen in top down view pic with flash, all pics hav flash, but if this was the full result I'd be more than happy as I only had 2000 grafts and was Norwood 5. I must say stylin plays a big role in how it looks as first thing in morning it looks horrific I still think it's a dream having hair again.

Wow just gets better and better. Seriously impressive result. Life changer. Nice tune in the video also what is it

The not in sunlight pic is much better mate. As baldblogger said u will have to wait out the 12 months before u will know ur result. There have been cases of huge growth from 7-12 months I know it's hard be patient but it's all you can do right now

It's hard to know man. At 7 months I wouldn't be happy with that growth but some people report that they see growth in months 7-12 months and beyond. I myself am at 6 months and feel like everything has more or less grown that is going to grow. Ull have to be patient. I hate saying it again but there has been plenty of negative reviews about your surgeon on here and very much in a similar time frame as ur surgery date. so just prepare urself that this may be ur result unfortunately. I really hope it's not though.

Possibly but everyone is different. I was panicking right up to the 4th month and that's when mine took off. U need to let it grow out also to see the proper benefit of it

Ya man u cud be a slow grower and the guy in that link certainly was a fast grower. You really would need to wait up to 8 months at least before u start panicking and even at that it's really 12 months before you could call a HT a failure or not

Looks very good for 4 months I think. Ur just getting to the good bit right now

Thanks mate. Appreciate the feedback. I do feel it improves nearly by the week. I'm happy as it is considering where I was but I'll take more thickening etc if it comes. Lots of people mentioning it to me now

Thanks mate. I'm with u on the framing of the face. In my early days on here i often heard guys say framing the face can do wonders for balding men and I thoroughly agree the more cases I see.

Cheers mate. Im delighted. No meds no. My regime consists of minoxidil twice daily lasercomb every 2nd day Saw Palmetto tab biotin/selenium tab CR LAB shampoos

I was going to leave it til 6 months but I hav noticed changes in the past 2 weeks only. It seems to be maturing and thickening every week and I have felt some small hairs only popping through in some parts of my scalp recently. Took these just after waking up no styling product or anything. The mid scalp is slowest for me but its getting there. A lot of people are asking me what the hell is going on I'm just saying it's minoxidil so I think there their sales might hav jumped recently happy happy

It kicked off I'd say in month 3.5 man and it's gettin to the good part at 5month. Ull be there soon u need to get urself a big stick so u can beat all them ladies off u with it

:D Dutchie I'm up on 5month mark and iv noticed the few extra smiles and salutes frm ladies that were absent this time last year I sh*t u not my good man:D
