Regular Member Toad_NW3 Posted March 14, 2007 Regular Member Share Posted March 14, 2007 Hey all HTers, I am now into week 13. I have been doing a bit of a comb foreward\over to cover effects and shockloss. To help conceal this I use a touch of Toppik. Saturday my gf and I were getting ready to go out to dinner w/ friends and I blowdried and combed my hair. I went and asked her how it looked (which I always do before throwing on the hair spray) and she said "yep, it looks good!" I then said, "no Toppik yet!" She replied "really!?! Wow." Now some of this could be b/c my hair in back is longer and helping with the combover/forward. But I think it goes to show even early signs of growth have cosmetic effects. I have a ton of transparent hairs which started around week 8 and have now become longer but yet to delelop much color. My pimples have started slowing down. I'm down to one or two a day as opposed to 4-5. I have more pictures (again always busy, blah, blah, sorry). I will take more next week at my 3-month anniversary. The time really did fly by even though it is nerve racking as hell at times. Can't wait for the next three months to fly by!!

Senior Member hairbank Posted March 14, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted March 14, 2007 Congrats, Toad.......sounds like your gettin' there! Good point about illusion of coverage as well, even though you're really just getting off to a good start, I imagine looking at you from the front it's starting to look pretty good. The overhead shots are less forgiving.. . Hang in there. I viewed your blog and believe you'll have decent results. Anxious to see your updates!

Bill - Seemiller Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Toad, Glad to hear things are coming along for you. Unless I missed it, I did not see any recent updates to your blog...have any photos you want to share with us? Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Toad_NW3 Posted March 15, 2007 Author Regular Member Share Posted March 15, 2007 Hey HB and Bill, I do have photos, but as always, I am currently slammed. I will try to get them up early next week and at least put same perspective from month two and three on my blog. Just was kind of thrilled about the "illusion" of having more hair. Will post soon.
