  1. I believed for a very long time that there was no hair loss treatment out there that would actually regrow hair. I have never even considered any sort of surgery or hair transplant until a little over a year ago. I just thought that all the procedures were a scam and really didn't give any noticeable results. To make a long-story short, I saw that the 2nd hair transplant my dad had (different transplant than the first) actually worked. I wasn't immediately convinced and did a lot of research on the procedure before going to see a doctor. Even after going through with the procedure, there was a huge part of me that didn't expect any results. I've gotten my hopes up in the past about the latest shampoo for hair loss or certain oils you can put on your scalp to help it magically start growing; only to feel completely defeated after no results. I think that the best thing you can do is start out by accepting the truth - that you're losing your hair. The next thing is to keep a really good attitude throughout the procedure and especially throughout the entire recovery/regrowth process. Don't expect the exact same results as someone else. We are all very similar; however, extremely different - especially when it comes to the healing process. Feeling upset about your procedure turning out different than another procedure is sort of like getting mad at someone who eats just as much as you do, except you're gaining a lot of weight while they are not. Every body reacts and recovers differently. You really just have to keep a positive mind.
