Interesting, seems like you’ve since had an epiphany. In retrospect, given your new perspective would you have gotten a hair transplant? Or would you have accepted it and shaved?

Well, epiphany....evolution of ideas...consciousness, and the like....sure. I thought like this then....just without the miles put on. Now, "WITH MILES"...and how i see things...to be brutally honest brother, i wouldn't change a thing. You have to understand that i went through going bald in my early 20's. Wearing a hairpiece for a number of years, before tossing them. And it was at that point whereby i just accepted myself and did shave my head. Around 2002 or so....there were many commercials on the television (back when i watched that) on HT's and i even almost went with one of them, based on a friggin' repetitious television commercial. Oye! Then around 2003/04, i started using my new laptop at my work and started looking on the web (a holy-crap idea) for HT's and i come across H&W some damn how...i call, we talk, magic happens and as the late-great Terrence McKenna would say, "So forth and so on...." But to answer your question...HT all the way. ✌️

Still strong after 20 years. Are you on meds?

Wooooooooow, that's trippy to see side-by-side mate. Ha!
To answer your question, the answer is no. Did them at first in the very beginning for about a year-ish...and then stopped. I'll allow my eating-habits (aka) VITAMIX use and the Universe to do what it will at this point...i now let all that go. However, it is fun to know that i CAN GROW it all long again, if i so choose. There is that "freedom" if you will. But i honestly prefer the buzzed "uniform" cut all around. At least...that's where i am these days. Peace! ✌️

Love to see a from the top shot of it buzzed down. I remember when I started looking into hair transplants, you were one of the first results I stumbled upon.

Thanks for always checking in, I hope all is great with you.

Here you go partner. Peace! ✌️

Why did you decide to shave it? Thanks for sharing, it’s rare to see HT cases past 5 years. Most guys move on and never post again. Its gonna be 10 years for me. 

I got into using a #1 guard when i was doing my own hair for about a year or so with the #2 on the sides and a #3 for the top and blending it in...blah blah blah. So, over some time i just started playing around with lowering the guards and eventually i just decided one day to take the whole damn thing down with a #1. It's been about 9 months or so now (who knows maybe longer) and i love it. WOW...10 years for you...CONGRATS! It is a milestone, that is for sure. Enjoy yours. With myself, I'm not concerned with the very faint scar in the back...it's a non-issue. So grateful for that. Take care...Peace! ✌️

It's been 20 years now! Hasson & Wong way back in 2004, offered me a possibility, where i didn't know one existed. Much turmoil in my life at that very moment, but i decided and moved forward. Uncaring of what "people thought" or would think. But rather, for me. I wanted this and dammit, this time I'm taking it. Victor Hasson is a very coherent doctor, having invented cutting blades specifically for each patient's unique hair characteristics, by itself is amazing. But his work speaks for itself. Allowing yourself to become obsessed over something that's good for you...is fun. I dove deep and found myself observing actual H&W patients for about the 8 month waiting period for my first surgery in real-time during that period, and watch them have procedures, heal and then have that "after-photo triumph". And then, i became one of those very patients. I wanted to share my journey while it was happening for others to follow and get answers and inspiration from. I wear my hair buzzed these days and i love it. Honestly, it's still the best decision I've ever made, for myself. Peace!

Yep, I was a Noorwood 6+. Here's a recent pic. It's hot out so I'm shaving my head these days.

Really? No meds? Wow. Did the doctors say you had no foreseeable loss?

I'm sure as i age there will be some "foreseeable loss". Dr. Hasson and i never spoke of it.
For now, I'm happy and have accepted from the beginning that there is no such thing as perfection.

Also, what’s your current age? Since your last procedure, have you lost any ground anywhere, and are you contemplating a 4th procedure at all? 

I'm currently 53. Nah...I don't really think I've "lost" anything.

I take NO meds. Never really did to be honest. I VITAMIX! (google it)

I'm not really contemplating any more procedures. I'll enjoy this all the way until the "end of the ride".

"Brother Bob" at your service. The one and only......me.

Yesterday i decided NOT to grow my hair long again...and buzzed it for the Summer.

I buzzed the sides first and had an interesting "look" for which i dubbed, "Funky".

But i cut ALL that off anyway. ✂️

4,849 Grafts for Hairline/Front - September, 23rd 2004

2,955 Grafts for Crown - June, 23rd 2005

671 Grafts for Temples - Nov, 6th 2007

Total Grafts = 8,475.

Hey ALL. Hope this message finds you well. This is just a quick photo i took today.

Yep, it's a BUZZ. I like it. Mostly...cuz it's fucking SUMMER...duh! Anyway...it's a #2 guard.

My brothers (and sisters) of this Hair Transplant Community....i bit you a CARPE DIEM!

See on . Peace!

stephcurry30 - Are you kidding me?  Just Google "Bobman Hair Transplant" in IMAGES and have at it. Ha!

Feel free to visit my FB page as I take selfies from time to time.

YESPLEASE: Things are Excellent.  Wearing it with a #2 for the sides and back and a #3 for the top. (for now)

Hey All...just wanted to share a meme I made for my page "YouStartedforaReason". Hope y'all like it and it shows you the power of what a personal transformation can look like, in ALL aspects of your life including HT's. :cool:

CLICK HERE to SEE the MEME.

I always find it fascinating when we allow our male-analytical-brains to get trenched into the manusha of some rather interesting topics. This topic for example is a great......example.

If you did your research. Understand the basic differences in what HT techniques you're looking into. AND more importantly that you found the RIGHT F'n Doctor(s)...flip a coin, make a choice...pull the trigger and get 'r done. An "important step" most dance around for years. But, like i say...the Universe works the way it works. Do what feels right. PEACE!

PS: :cool:

This is just an observation not directed at anyone specific GEORGE....i mean, what? (jk)

Cant decide:"I especially like your comment about nobody really caring about your hair so just do it.

Its true, I have found that people don't pay that much attention for better or for worse."

Yep. And the more you let that go...the easier it is to approach ANYTHING in life...let alone a procedure to "enhance" one's self.

KO: Nice Family Guy Thumb! ha. Thank you...most appreciated. All HAIL Staff & Artistic Doctors that know what they're doing.

DAVID: Thanks man. I wanted to make one for a while, but wanted it to be sincere, honest and direct. I guess pain meds took my own edge off and this is what we get. Ha...Peace!

LONDON: Ok...let's leave NUTS outta this. I've had a very VERY enlightening week with both of them. And you HAD to use the word "Firmly" too....ya just HAD to! AH! ;-)

Futzy...check your gmail! Peace.

Oh WHERE oh WHERE has "the Futzyhead" gone? Oh WHERE oh WHERE could he be?
