  1. That's crazy dude, you're giving everyone on here new hope. Looks like you can probably go another 3k grafts and complete your coverage if you really wanted too. Money well spent
  2. Can you give us more background on this surgery? Who’s the surgeon, how old are you, med history, have meds held you up ?
  3. Personally I wouldn't touch it.. your result is incredible!
  4. If they are chest and beard hair, they may just not grow long or as fast as regular hair from your head.
  5. We need more regulation on this website when we get questions like this from young guys, some of these answers are not great, and the one above me is disingenuous and actually suggests for the guy to get off the forum. To the OP, there are many genes that contribute to AGA (androgentic alopecia) or Male Pattern Baldness (MPB), and they will come from both sides of the family, so it is not enough to look at one parent or the other. The fact that your father is bald might suggest that you have some variation of these genes and could have some degree of MPB. Like yourself, MPB is more present on my father's side as my maternal grandfather and uncle both had a lot hair well into their late years and my father at 66 is not entirely bald either. In any case, your hair overall still looks great. The thinning we're seeing in your crown could be a slight onset of MPB so the best thing you can do for yourself is go get the opinions of a few dermatologists, doctors, maybe even hair transplant surgeons if you have good ones near you. Because the thinning appears too close to your cowlick, its hard for anyone to tell you here if that is anything to be concerned about . BUT go and make sure you know for sure so that you can understand your options if it is MPB. This is the type of issue that you have to get ahead of, you might be really lucky that you've come at such a young age and your problem is still minimal.
  6. Tough to judge for me as I had an ht correct a receded hairline but otherwise my hair everywhere else was in tact at the time I started meds (Fin and min). So for now I'm def getting maintenance as two years on and it all feels/looks the same.
  7. I’ve been on it for about 2 years 2.5 mg daily. I’ve heard the Kevin mann vid recently about his opinion against it. I haven’t had major problems, some days I can recall feeling a bit light headed and on the occasion get the tight chest. I will go see a cardiologist soon to run a ecg or ekg or really anything they suggest and I’ll asses further. I’ll update here in case anyone finds interest in it.
  8. Shampooing your hair every day is not great, the chemicals strip your natural oils and dry up your scalp. But washing your hair, meaning soaking your head with water, is not bad. I do something similar in that I apply my topicals in the evening and the next morning before work I shower with just water and style my hair before I leave
  9. It’s likely, as the surgeon probably told him to get on it. But I’m sure he’s only started recently, and I’m sure he has little understanding of it all too
  10. Couldn't be happier for you.. hang this in the Louvre
  11. Can we pin this response somewhere so that this question gets answered forever
  12. Very clean work, donor looks untouched and the density all over the rest of your head is A1. I laughed at the shoutout 👊
  13. You’re the best person to answer this. Has it been working for you? Is there a trade off for you, and is it worth it ?
  14. He’s not laughing.. the whole point is that when you freeze frame a video you can capture a transition in someone’s facial expression and can see a different response, especially one to confirm some bias. In that video of you you have no reason to be confused or distraught looking.. but I happened to screenshot at a moment where it capture your facial expression in a different way. Will smith does not smile or laugh at all in the video
  15. here’s a screenshot of you talking abojt a clinic in your video .. but in the image it looks like you’re confronting someone
  16. You can freeze frame many things into a snapshot and they will appear like they are telling a completely different story
  17. Its not fake in my opinion. Will and Jada have infamously been through a lot in their relationship and a lot has been exposed and talked about for many years now. For Jada dealing with alopecia since 2018, she has gone through a lot of trauma dealing with it, a familiar trauma to many of us here I'm sure. The joke Chris made perhaps comes with bad timing as well, she's at the Oscars sitting there with a shaved head and it looks like she has come to a place where she feels shes accepted it, and chris' joke undermines how much effort that took. Granted its not really a great joke either, its cheap and only half witty, most ppl can make jokes at the expense of someones appearance or struggle thats pretty easy. So anyway as the situation finally hit Will, I think he became overwhelmed with the feeling of someone abusing that peace she and him both worked for and he felt it was his role to fight back.. Hitting Chris in that moment felt like he was sticking up for his wife... and you know whats funny I think it definitely is going to strengthen their relationship, I'm not writing that to agree or disagree with his action.. but man she has to come out of that thinking he def loves her and has her back cuz that was striking. He was dammned if he didnt do something and damned if he did..
