Regular Member domie Posted September 12, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 12, 2006 everyone, thanks for the comments. as always, your input is greatly appreciated. :-) now for the "oscar winning" thank you speech.. mrjb and nikkop, its always great to hear compliments (hats off to dr. wong!). your both pumping me up for month 7 (and beyond). guess ill still have to be patient. ;-) although its much easier now that im a "retired baldie" already (as bushy wisely stated). john, i have no idea what the actual density is. all i know is that i wanted it maximized with the amount of grafts i got. joe, its always good to hear from the man that started this life changing journey for me... you my friend are awesome! bushy, your blog has been so incredibly helpful for me. seriously, its been so close in progress that its like i have a window for the future of my do. thanks so much for posting your story. hairbank and troy, as much as you guys have shared your experience and knowledge with this community... imho, you are helping to change peoples lives as much as the dr's that are performing the surgeries. what you share gets people in those chairs (myself included). i would not have done it without seeing and believing. THANK YOU! mad props to all my brothers in hair loss! :-) see you next month, w00t! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member MrJobi Posted September 14, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hi Troy You misunderstood my comment. I was referring to people complaining about " Poor Hair transplantation in general" . My point being there are amazing doc ( like H &W) who can perform life changing surgeries in just one pass. I think you migth have read my comments too fast .. H & W are truly gifted doctors.

Regular Member domie Posted September 17, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 17, 2006 alright, ive not posted any 1/2 month updates so far... but im so siked from my wonderful hairstylist friends new haircut. i just had to share. first off, i have not told her about the HT... and she has NO idea still after cutting my hair last night!? when i saw her about a month ago (for the first time after the procedure) she kinda stared at me for a minute and asked, "is that your natural hair color? it looks great!" the puzzled look on her face was SO darn cute. so here i am 5.5 months out rockin' that banging cut! a re-newed confidence, and an exciting stage in life! thank you dr. wong, thank you all!

Senior Member UGLY MAN 4 LIFE Posted September 18, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 18, 2006 Domie, You look absolutely fantastic. It's nuts how great you look. BTW - what did Dr. Wong think of your hair type? Were you above average in terms of shaft diameter and texture? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member John_in_NC Posted September 18, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 18, 2006 Domie, you look GREAT! I noticed that you only used 3500 grafts. Any plans for a future one, once this is settled? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member domie Posted September 19, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted September 19, 2006 hey thanks guys, your compliments are appreciated. im pretty darn happy at only 5.5 months! :-) ugly, im sorry but i dont recall dr wongs opinion of diameter or texture. judging it myself, i would have to say my hair type is average... leaning more towards the fine side. john, actually 3500 was the pre-op projected amount of grafts. the total amount after the procedure was 4907 (with over 10,000 hairs).

Senior Member the B spot Posted September 19, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 19, 2006 Looks great Domie!!! Given your level of hairloss, it is amazing that you can now comb your hair forward without hardly a hint of baldness in the back. Should you need more later down the road, I am sure you have a lot left in the bank, from looking at your donor. Congrats again, and let us know how things are coming along with the ladies, now that your rocking the rockstar hairdoo!!!! =) Go Cubs! 6721 transplanted grafts 13,906 hairs Performed by Dr. Ron Shapiro Dr. Ron Shapiro and Dr. Paul Shapiro are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

Senior Member Eman Posted September 19, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted September 19, 2006 damn domie, this is getting ridiculous (how good it looks)!! Just one more week and it will be six months. Your five and a half month pics are great and your six month anniversary will I am sure the pics will be even better. How did you go in again and initially supposed to be around 3500 and get 4900?? That is a big difference. Remember I was told between 3500-3700, but would love for the additional amount as I want only one session.... My initial HT thread: done and done!! Check it out...

Regular Member domie Posted October 3, 2006 Author Regular Member Share Posted October 3, 2006 now that its here, that 1/2 year sure flew by! 6 month pics are up. no styling cream this time to show you what it looks like plain-o. b spot: haha, thank you sir. i tell ya, its so nice to meet people and not have those nagging voices in the back of the mind... "d00d, their scoping your cranium!" eman: i wish you the best with your procedure! being a "retired baldie" is allllright! troy: every person (that doesnt know of the procedure) has attributed the change to my hair color (natural now vs. bleached then), its been very interesting. i was with a life long friend this past weekend (that i have not seen since the procedure). the VERY first thing he said to me was about my hair, "whats up with your hair!? your not bleaching it anymore, it looks SO much better! more full" it was awesome, what a good feeling!
