Senior Member Craig2412 Posted December 7, 2019 Author Senior Member Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) Thank you guys for all the feedback and comments, I really do appreciate it. Just regarding the comment about the design of my hairline, Dr Erdogan designed it completely himself. He gave me two options. The first option was 4000 grafts and a kind of half circle line. The second option for 5000 grafts was more of a v-shape design I would say and included the hairline being slightly lower and also the inclusion of side temples. I’m personally over the moon with the progress so far especially when I consider how bad my hair looked prior to the HT, but appreciate if the hairline may not be to everyone’s liking or preference. I’ve attached some photos 9 months apart and in my opinion there’s been a huge positive change all thanks to the clinic.

Lol. Ya think? Mate, you have one of the better results on this board. The new hairstyle is spot on too. You should keep it that length.

IMHO, a higher hairline was a little better. But I'm 42 and you are in your 20s and that makes a huge difference in terms of preferences! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve literally had the top cut once and that was just the ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s fine mate I’m going to be 32 in a couple of weeks and agree the age difference plays a part in how aggressive someone may hope to have their hairline 😊 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the hairdryer and brush (attached) at the same time after the shower and brush the hair up and backwards. I find this is 75% of the job as I only use a small amount of wax which I brought in the barbers to run my fingers through the hair and then hairspray. It’s really quick and easy.
