Growing hair back? - The Big 3 ++ Journey
Shifty replied to Shifty's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Im just not really down with a strip in general. even though the results are typically better. Id like the option of keeping hair shorter on sides.. And 3200 hairs falling out effin sucks man, you had strip with that? -

We all now its about what we see not what others see. While I have responded well what I've been doing as a whole, it can still be improved upon. -
Growing hair back? - The Big 3 ++ Journey
Shifty replied to Shifty's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Sup folks. So been very busy with work and life but I wanted to give an uodate. In Aruba at the moment and the lighting in. Bathroom isnt great. I am 7 months in as if the 26th of Arpil. You'll notice one crown photo looking thinner than others. I really leaned into the light. I've been seeing smaller hairs falling out my only hope is they are making way for larger hairs. Frontal still showing signs of new hairs. Crown is eh. Still using fibers which I dislike. Almost impossible to get perfect color and really hard to do with out folding mirror which hotels never have. It doesnt look great but if no one us directly behind you they wont notice. Ket me know thoughts. Hoping to get an HT to close up the gaps next year. No product in hair just blow dried . -
. Something to consider. If you go FUT you will see more hairs survive and also possibly be able to get more hairs for both at once. FUE has a smaller yield of survival and from what Ive seen on this site some doctors recommend only 2500 grafts a session (donar dependent you might get more or less) but others do mega sessions, so there are options. I also see many members post some surgeons are better for FUE and some for FUT so do a little research for yourself.

Microneedling - Potential new growth.
Shifty replied to bonkling's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
Glad my post helped. I use 1.5 for 2 days a week as noted in the regime in my post. As an * I also blast my head with extremely cold water 1-2 times a week as well. I will let you all do your own research in that. =) -

This is like telling someone that has an autoimmune disease to eat whatever they want it wont change things because they inherited it. Bad advice imo. Is it I inherited? Yes. It is NOTHING like eye color. Proper diet can CHANGE YOUR WORLD. I am not saying a completely bald person can regrow hair by eating correctly. I am saying that if you feel it's in your Gene's you can slow it down if not stop it from happening by putting the right things in your body. Doctors are not there to tell you these things IMO they are there to prescribe meds and perform surgery. That's how they make money.

I firmly believe what you eat/drink has a direct result on what happens internally and externally to your body. hair included. I would not go so far as saying vegan will cure hair loss though thats silly. if you are looking to improve any part of your physical appearance, hair included, diet has to be high on the list.

Thanks man, you and me both! lol The small hairs, as I've noted, are concerning. I am hoping its just new growth making way for thicker hairs. -
Growing hair back? - The Big 3 ++ Journey
Shifty replied to Shifty's topic in Hair Restoration Questions and Answers
6 months. I am still seeing hairs sprouting and growing in the frontal hair line. Very happy where I am atm, hoping for more growth over the next 6 months. The below pictures are taken in the brightest light to really show whats going on. Darker light hair looks fantastic. The crown has me concerned as I am seeing small hairs fall out. it is not a ton maybe 10-15 hairs in the morning but they are small. Anyone have any incite here in regards to this? Top. hair is very full all over except for here, its my problem child. Hair fibers help. Left side temple up close. You can see new growth still. right side. new growth visible as well. As up close as i could get to temple to show new growth that continues to happen Hair wet , combed just to see what it looks like in general. -

5 months today. I always have to note, I HAVE BEEN VERY STRICT WITH THE REGIMEN. HAVEN'T MISSED 1 BEAT. Crown came in nicely. temporal are still growing. I was not expecting such a great result. I cant even imagine what this is going to look like in another 5 months. Getting a full blown hair cut Friday, fade and all. been a while! lol -
