Nice! I have heard people having the same concern about the ink, I’m not familiar with the health consequences of it to be honest, it’s definitely something the look into and get a professional unbiased opinion on. That said, many millions of people get tattoos all over their body, so if it’s a similar ink it may not be such a worry, but you never know. I don’t have any tattoos personally.

He man, honest opinion, your hair looks great buzzed, and your donor looks pretty good give the 9k grafts taken, if you ever did SMP on the donor it would look 💯.

You’re welcome, and thanks 👍🏻 Be sure to take “baseline” before photos and follow up progress photos. 👍🏻

So, recently my dr pen A6 was having issues and not functioning properly after almost a year of heavy use....I haven’t yet decided if I should buy another because I also recently purchased an electric scalp massager to see if that helps and gets me results as well as scalp massages seem to also aid in scalp blood circulation as well as decalcifies which in theory may help grow or re-grow hair/reverse miniaturization. I have already done 3 daily sessions with either wet hair or with my oil mix. The first session was with wet hair, about 20 minutes of use all over my scalp, it felt good and actually relaxing, I did notice some fine hairs shed that looked like weak hairs in the process of miniaturization, my scalp was pinkish after and for a few hours post as it seemed lots of blood flow was returning to my scalp, which should be a positive thing. The 2nd & 3rd sessions, I applied some of my oil mix to my scalp then used the scalp massager to make it easier to use and not tug at my HT or native hairs, this time less fine native hairs shed and scalp was pink from again the better blood flow and felt pretty good. I plan to do this daily for some time before I buy another derma pen...and see how it compares to my microneedling progress/results. Edit: I forgot to add...the scalp massager was great at loosening up and removing my dry dandruff flakes which is a positive in that will help keep hair follicles unclogged and free to grow without having to use harsh chemical shampoos.

These type of news stories will sadly be the norm... https://www.thedailybeast.com/pennsylvania-man-upset-over-coronavirus-shoots-girlfriend-before-turning-gun-on-himself/body?via=FB_Page&source=TDB

I agree, the fault and blame starts with the Chinese leaders, as well as the blame across the board for governments and big businesses outsourcing almost all manufacturing to China to gain as much profit as possible so the CEO’s could gain their $10-15-20 million bonuses. My criticism is of the leaders and I hate seeing news stories of innocent Asian Americans & immigrants here in the US getting attacked just for fears sake. Ive recently read that the reason there is such devastation in Northern Italy is due to the huge amount of cheap Chinese labor imported in to the garment district and fashion house producing clothes made in Italy but by Chinese laborers...whom traved back and forth and likely exposed many unaware they were infected. Im no fan of Trump, but one thing I agree with him on is that here in the US, vital industries should be here and not dependent on cheap overseas labor, any those that do should be punished...but that’s him talking with one side of his mouth while with the other side of his mouth he shipped tons of American made medical supplies to China and he handed corporations $1.8 trillion in tax cuts in 2018-2019 with free reign to do as they wish with the cash. Maybe people will open their eyes that some vital things need to stay at home.

And some members here attacked my comments on China’s sending people and supplies to Italy and others to “help” a couple weeks ago, just trusting their agenda was of pure good will....and the politicians and media praising China’s strong-armed tactics of dragging people off the streets and into vans and welding homes shut etc ...and making their doctors and researchers whom were speaking out originally, magically “disappear”. And the media keeps sticking to the story that this is a result of just some guy eating a bat...and NOT the biolab that’s in close proximity to the wet market (still, wet markets should be banned IMHO) or the fact that the FBI has previously intercepted agents of China attempting to enter the US with viles of substances....but hey, it’s just a bat.

The CDC is purposefully informing heathcare providers to log deaths even if its from any underlying existing conditions AND if it’s just “assumed” a person has the virus....no test needed no lung scan needed no autopsy confirmation necessary....but let’s all trust in them and their “data”....yeah, okay. Inflating stats increases the panacea no f@cking doubt.... "It is important to emphasize that Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19 should be reported on the death certificate for all decedents where the disease caused or is assumed to have caused or contributed to death." https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvss/coronavirus/Alert-1-Guidance-for-Certifying-COVID-19-Deaths.pdf"

Hospital executives and brass know what’s important above all else...$$$$$$ https://fortune.com/2020/03/31/coronavirus-shortages-hospitals-doctors-fired-face-masks-ppe/

I get what you’re saying man, just a horrible situation to be in for all parties and errors will be unavoidable, my frustration is that these hospital conglomerates which have consolidated heavily over the past decade and reaping huge profits should have been prepared with enough materials to protect their staff and better coordination what is actually working....from what I’ve seen it seems that local small practices and smaller community hospitals are the ones with the higher success and recovery rates. Not to take away from the unimaginable hard work that the caring heathcare workers are doing, but I would not let my loved one alone if they are in such a situation, people need to be there for their loved ones.

Cool man, will also be following your progress...to get results it’s important to be consistent with it and do not worry if you start seeing the fine hairs shedding from the initial few session as in my experience it’s likely the follicle kicking out the hairs miniaturizing to make way for stronger hairs from the improved blood circulation. As for your questions... I use the Dr Pen A6 w/12-needle cartridge and I set it on the fastest speed and use an up and down stamping motion from area to area going over my whole scalp which can take about 30 minutes, not pressing to hard.

I understand, but people I’ve read and seen lots of news of the faces of the dead and almost all had been heavily sedated...how can a persons body and immune system fight of a virus if it’s in a perpetual state of sleep?!?! It’s dangerous and deadly and I don’t care how some hospital executive rationalizes it in the news. The people that are recovering and being “cured” of this because of their immune system and of anti-virals, they can get all the ventilators they want but if they can’t get the anti-viral drugs asap...it seems helpless.

How the f@ck can people fight for their life if they are being drugged and put to sleep?!?!?!? https://www.nydailynews.com/coronavirus/ny-coronavirus-fdny-paramedic-young-virus-20200324-74tadm2skjb7zeuwb2xhwvtfoi-story.html

China doesn’t have a monopoly on falsifying data... Just as I’ve said before with source links...the head of the hospitals have been told to ration care and are letting people die, either from this or from other conditions like pneumonia. Here in the US they are doing the same, rationing care, and I’ve read reports that if Some one is really ill and are feeling pain they are getting heavily sedated and many did not wake up....I’m no doctor or nurse but How the f@ck do you heavily sedate a person whom is having trouble breathing, essentially suffocating to death?!?!?!?!?!...Someone at the top heathcare level is making that call, it’s insane. https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/post-intensive-care-syndrome-why-some-covid-19-patients-may-n1166611 “The 38-year-old father of three is recovering from the coronavirus after spending 10 days in Cleveland Clinic's intensive care unit. He was kept mostly sedated while hooked up to a ventilator to help him breathe. "There was a time during this process where the hospital reached out to my wife to have the discussion about end-of-life options," Brown, of Tuscarawas County, Ohio, said. "It was very emotional for all of us." “Patients may be physically weak and experience a type of post-traumatic stress. The exact cause of post-intensive care syndrome is unclear. It could be the result of patients not getting enough oxygen or blood to the brain. Or, it could be sedative medications — critical for what physicians must do in acute care, but with potentially long-lasting ramifications.”

250,000 people die each year due to Medical Errors, the 3rd leading cause of death...directly from Johns Hopkins...the same that is gathering the data on this virus. https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/news/media/releases/study_suggests_medical_errors_now_third_leading_cause_of_death_in_the_us

Crazy... And the people whom accept being in a constant state of fear over a virus that many won’t get and many have overcome and many will overcome...wont care...they think they will miraculously survive with no job no income no food no necessities no home no personal safety for themselves and their family if we remain in total lockdown and isolation for weeks and months...it’s a trade-off they’re willing to accept, sadly. Millennials, already have been burdened with having to take on large student debt to play catch up, have had to take on 2 or more low wage part time jobs just to make ends meet, their future was already in a downward spiral....now add the addition of the consequence of no income no food no shelter at all..and the mental health issues will far outweigh what’s happening......suicide is the 2nd leading cause of death amongst youth and young adults 10-24 years old and more die each year taking their own life than do to any disease or other health condition. From the CDC...45,000 America’s take their own life each year, 1 every 12 minutes, this statistic will no doubt skyrocket, sadly.

Yup! I saw that story...as well as other that are in their 90’s and 100 beating this.

I’m a realist...and can be an optimist...contrary to my dire comments here...I just read a great story on this doctor who’s treated 699 Covid-19 patients with 100% success rate...I’ll share the article here so the word can spread and we can demand help for everyone... https://thepostmillennial.com/ny-doctor-reports-100-success-treating-coronavirus-with-drug-combination

Yeah, and yes it’s simi in NY. The thing is...the Fed will be buying up the mortgage debt...and they will play god on whom gets help to keep their home or not.

Not just chain restaurants... https://www.politico.com/news/2020/03/27/mortgage-system-collapse-coronavirus-pandemic-152338

The Reality-show host in chief and the cronies he put in his cabinet have just last week decided to give 100% exclusive production and sales rights to the life-saving anti-viral drug that can fight this threat to 1 pharmaceutical corporation for 7 YEARS, it’s quite obvious they don’t give a shit about saving lives...only those whom will be able to afford it. Satan himself couldn’t have made a better deal. Edit: just read that the drug company was so shamed by critics for attempting to profit from the exclusive monopolistic lucrative deal that they backed off... https://www.statnews.com/pharmalot/2020/03/25/gilead-covid19-coronavirus-orphan-drug/

And likewise.

Just wait...you’ll see soon enough and you’ll be eating your words.
