Hey guys. I’m at a bit of a weird stage in my HT journey. i honestly feel like I preferred my look at 7 months to now (almost 12 months). I think that’s maybe due to the fact that I’ve gone from a terrible hairline, to an improved one but then ‘demand’ more. I have to look back on old photos to fully appreciate the transformation but it’s still strange. I was wearing my hair ‘up’ and over to the side like a parting but whenever I go anywhere with intense lighting (eg in a changing room in clothes shop) it looks like I have 20% hair and I’m aLmost bald. I don’t think it’s helped by my hair being extremely ‘fine’ anyway (barbers have always commented on that) and maybe I need either more transplanted hair, or the micro tattoo things to imitate dark hair roots. ive started to wear my hair forward with a fringe, as harsh lighting does not affect that style and it looks ‘full’. anyone else get like this??

No not at all. Just asking valid questions. I guess this is the problem with photos on forums. You’re only ever going to see ‘real results’ when you meet someone in person (before and after). I get that ‘harsh lightning’ is the best way to see results, but at the same time we don’t walk around in harsh lightning all the time. So it’s both a true reflection of results at the same time as being a poor reflection of how we would look in real life. ill try and remember to take that pic tomorrow 👍🏻

No I didn’t in the end. Going to see if I suffer any further loss then consider it

This was me during lockdown btw. Can you see why I took the plunge?! 😂

My previous haircut was a ‘cover up’ so it was difficult to see the extent of hair loss the way it was styled. I thought the wet pics would have provided a better idea of actual hair loss areas . I’ll take a pic with wet pulled back hair tomorrow for reference. Out of interest, the last pic I posted was under the same harsh lighting (spotlights in a bathroom) but I take your point on not being a true comparison.

Coming up to 9 months and decided on a new style. The world is my oyster 🤣

To be honest, you couldn’t see anything in donor area after about day 10

Dr Farjo did take plenty of pre-op photos and I guess he’ll be doing more when I go for final check-up. Temples weren’t really discussed. I was more than happy with the hairline once drawn on though.

Sorry for late reply. No recipient area wasn’t discussed but it was pretty significant IMO

Ok so maybe the final pic for a while as I’m sure people will be getting sick of me by now 😆 but really pleased with this one...

Ah you’re in good hands with Dr Farjo and his team. You’ll spend months doubting everything, thinking that your case is the one that doesn’t work, but you have to be patient. Easy for me to say who questioned everything 😆. Good luck on your journey

Thanks for that! I’m really pleased with the results. I especially like the fact that I can just smile when it’s windy, gone are the day’s of moving my whole body position to get the wind to blow my hair in the right direction (ie not letting the ‘cover up’ hair look like a wig blowing in the wind!!) 😆

Coming up to 7 months so thought I’d share a couple of pics
