It looks fine, if you want to look like you shave your head. I liked it a lot for a while. But, I've been missing my hair for quite some time now, so when the opportunity presented itself, I took it.

So, I am at the airport right now, waiting for my flight to Turkey. I've been a long time lurker on the site, but I have never posted anything. I have been contemplating a hair transplant for years and have come close on a number of occasions. I have had 2 deposits down with Dr. Tejinder Bhatti in India, but I didn't end up going to either of those. I've been keeping my eye on the cheaper surgeons (worldwide) that have been recommended on this site, and I finally made the decision to go with Dr. Yaman based on price and results. I am a little bit nervous traveling to Turkey, but not that nervous. After consulting with the Doctor via email, we've decided to go with 2 sessions with at least 8 months in between. So, this week, I will get my hairline and mid scalp done and then next time I will get the crown done. I've also recently started a full compliment of other hair loss therapies including: Saw-Palmetto/Biotin, Rogaine, Low Level Laser Therapy, and Microneedling. I've only been using these other methods for a few weeks, but I do see a decent amount of new growth with little blonde hairs. So, we'll see if that ever amounts to anything. I will be getting 4000 grafts with Dr. Yaman for this procedure (assuming all goes well) and as many as are possible for the next one. The before pictures that I am posting will be a little hard to evaluate because I have had scalp micropigmentation done, and so the baldness level is masked when my hair is short. The picture I am posting without micropigmentation is about 4 years old, and during that time I hadn't taken any baldness fighting steps (until this past month), so baldness level is definitely worse now than it was. I have been told a driver will meet me by a coffee shop in the airport. I also have the hotel confirmation information, and a contact at Dr. Yaman's office. I will arrive Wednesday evening in Turkey and I believe the procedure will take place Thursday (May 2nd). I will try and give a detailed account of my journey as I go.
