Try pumpkin seed oil, it has some DHT-inhibiting properties as well.

Great i just ordered some thank you. Also i see they have pills and the actual oil you apply to scalp should i get both or the topical version is ok ?

Thank you Bro its been quite journey so far thank you for all your help  @Melvin- Moderator do you recommend anything i can put in my hair that won't mess up process? like a moisturizer?

Hey Guys Sorry for the Delay i haven't updated because i feel there hasn't been much change. So here it is today my 9 1/2 Month Update from Doctor Diep.

Overall i'm very happy with my results and i stand by it being one of the best decisions i've ever made. Im still looking for more density on my right side. I feel i need an extra 1000-1500 grafts to complete everything and a second Ht, my friends and family think im ok but that right side is weak.  Some days weeks i think i go through light shedding and new hair growing in is that normal i wonder ? My donor areas are great and i now have feeling in at the top of my head again more numb head lol. Ive come along ways and i thank everyone here in this community for helping me make it through. I will  update again next month before ending year. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback or recommendations 

Also i don't put any chemicals or products in my hair and it can get dry at time can anyone recommend anything that i can use that is natural and won't make my hair thin ??????

I take Fin 4 times a week 

No Minoxidil 

Thank you

Awesome man 😎 to think you was worried early on ! 😆

Yes i was worried i'm so surprise how fast its progressing thank you so much.

Hello Everyone,

This is My 4 month Update. I am very happy with my results at this point. I know i skipped a month But there was little to report last month.

My hair continues to get thicker and thicker and quite honestly i'm blown away by my results at 4 months 😁 it feels like 12 months. I feel like i have one of the best results I've seen at 4 months . I only have to wear hats by choice now.

I really want to thank Hair Restoration Network without this platform i would have never met Dr Diep. This was for sure one of the best decisions i have ever made and Dr Diep if your reading this thank you man 👏👏!!!!! So at this point i can't wait to see what it will look like at 12 months. Please feel free to ask any questions.

I’ll be honest. I’ve fallowed a lot of people with black hair on YouTube. This is probably the best hair line I’ve seen. Temporal points frame the face perfectly. It’s only going to get thicker month 2 month  

Thank you. I honestly wasn't expecting anything to be happening at this point . Everything I read said after 4 months . I'll update again in 2 weeks since I'm seeing changes early. 

Just now, Skyb said:

Bro you look fantastic for just 2 months. I’m actually quit impress to be honest. Are you using black ice? Based on what I see your results will be 10/10 easy

No I don't put anything in my hair Dr Diep recommended no dyes or oils for one year so i haven't put anything.

I'm on fin 3x a week and I workout about 5 times a week Cardio every workout session . Protein daily as well . One month ago I was depressed. Now it's like weekly I'm seeing changes it's crazy . 

@Skyb @Melvin-Moderator @Norman Osborne Waves 

what's do you guys think ? I know it's only 2 months ?

Thanks John I will continue to share my journey. I hope things continue to get better . 

Hello Everyone,

Today Marks my 2 month anniversary to my FUE procedure with Dr Diep. My last update one month ago i was depressed and discouraged about my hair progress i know it was only a month and the shedding stage but i wasn't happy. Sooo today I must say i am very happy about what's going on. Its only two months but im seeing a lot of progress. Im seeing early growth and some of the hair that was lost due to shock loss is starting to return. Its like everyday im seeing changes. I am feeling like this one was of the best decisions of my life. Currently Im in Hawaii on vacation not wearing a hat lol without direct Light the hair looks amazing. My close friends definitely know the difference its funny to see there reactions. Again this is only my Two month mark so here are some pics below ill let you guys judge. I can just only imagine my 1 year mark.   Let me know if you have any questions. I don't know if the is pre Mature but Dr Diep you are amazing  !!!!!!

Hello Everyone,

This will be my 1 Month update to My Fue Procedure done February 2, 2021 by Dr. John Diep . Yes as you can see the shedding has begun 😢. It started about 10 days ago.

It looks like things are worst then before. Im experiencing some shock loss in transplanted area. The donor areas are recovering great. I know this is a journey so i haven't started to panic yet but i must say im anxious to see how things will work out. I still have some sort of hair line which is ok i guess. I do see that there are some hairs that survived the shedding possibly. Let me know if you have any questions . ill check in again Next month

Honestly, everything looks great. It’s gonna be a hard 3-4 months. Definitely important not to let the doubt take over. It’s a process, believe and trust in the process. I can see you definitely being like @Norman Osborne Waves 

Your right i know this is a process Just wish i can Fast forward. Im just hoping im one of Dr Diep's miracle cases🙏

I guess ill just enjoy this hairline until the shedding begins. Talk to you guys soon

I agree. I’ve been keeping a stealth eye on his results and his patients always seem to have the best end result. Can’t wait to see the finish product. Looking at your pics I see another fantastic result 

Im hoping everything goes well. I will keep everyone updated throughout my journey. I was wondering how my after  procedure pics were looking ?

Congrats man 👏 Dr Diep does really good work with Afro hair ! Sure yours will be another really good result. 

Thank you Im hoping everything goes well.

I picked Fue because i didn't want the scar. i wear my hair short 90% of the time even when i had a full head of hair lol.

I will give a complete review of procedure from extracting grafts and incisions , customer service and Dr Diep's staff in upcoming posts. 

Right now I'm just concentrating on recovery .

Day 7 Post op

Today I'm feeling great . I don't feel any pain at all. My donor looks great to me. i still have very little or no feeling in my head yet but I've read that's normal.
