Senior Member troy Posted July 25, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2014 HT was performed July 22 by Dr. Paul Shapiro. Not a lot has changed. They have a shock thing that makes the shots barley hurt and lots of movies to watch. Its still hard sitting in a chair all day. I had roughly 2754 grafts in the middle where i was thinning about 20cm, hoping for 40-45cm now. I let them shave the top of my head.....it looks stupid, thankfully i work from home and can hide out. Last time they didnt cut my hair, i was back to the grind a week later. Ill have a odd haircut for a longer time this go around. I went in for my first shampoo yesterday, all went well. Ive been spraying that stuff on my head every 1/2 hour....man it makes my head itch!! Cant wait to itch the top of my numb head, lol. I took 2 showers today, all went well. I go in for a hair cut Monday, should be interesting.....I dont think they can fix this jacked up hair dew i got going on here. Gonna be a long 2 weeks. glad to have it behind me, next goal get back to normal life. ill try to post pics of pre op day 1 and day 2 My Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member troy Posted July 26, 2014 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 26, 2014 Ya I took pics each day, Ill try to post them this weekend. I did use SMG last time too and document the who procedure for 12 months, not sure how to link it to this thread. The vibrating think some how made the shots not hurt, I dont know what it was but its new. Im not loving my crazy looking hair right now. Im going in for a hair cut Monday, hopefully it can be somewhat salvaged. I was hoping to pull this transplant off without anyone knowing other than my best friend who goes in for FUE next month. Im excited for next week, I want to itch the top of my head....ive been tying my hands to my waist at night so I dont itch my head in my sleep, lol My Hair Loss Weblog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
