Senior Member kramer79 Posted October 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted October 9, 2021 Result looks great. Are you sure the donor is a 3 guard? i guess maybe it is the picture that makes it look longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible results! Very content!

Regular Member uklex0608 Posted May 28, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted May 28, 2022 @GaryStruthers Sure thing, especially as I just got a haircut. Just a couple weeks shy of 18 months.

Senior Member stephcurry30 Posted June 22, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted June 22, 2022 Looking good. ANy thoughts of adding any grafts to increase volume/density? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member uklex0608 Posted June 22, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted June 22, 2022 No, I think I’m pretty good with it at this level. I’m definitely open to having another procedure, but that’s for if/when I start noticing new loss, I’m still beyond happy with the results. 2 My Hair Transplant: 12/14/2020, 2,380 FUT, Dr. Konior Medication: Finasteride 1mg daily (most days I remember) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member uklex0608 Posted July 20, 2022 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 20, 2022 Summary: My results are fantastic, but note that your styling choices post procedure are quite important to your overall satisfaction. So, for the first time since I started seeing good results, I got a terrible haircut (my regular guy and I had some scheduling conflicts, so I did just a quick jaunt down to the local speedyclips type place). I wanted to share this to everyone on this board who sees these transformations (my own included) and think it's a miracle. Although I do think it is, it's more a miracle* (note the asterisk) because to make the most of your investment, you have to take care of it--not just to keep it from falling out all over again with medications if applicable, but also to make sure it's cared for and maintained to it's best potential. Top Picture: My hair albeit pushing the limits of where I'll let it get to before a haircut, but still done by my normal stylist, and thrilled with it as normal. Middle Picture: Same angle with the same product, but cut too short and no layering/texturing put into the haircut--just a snip snip there. I got what I paid for, and I didn't expect I'd be happy going into it, so I wasn't surprised. Better than pre-procedure pictures by a thousand, but it doesn't hold a candle to the combined results of a good stylist AND the procedure. Bottom Picture: No fading done, speedyclips person just did a straight two guard straight up the back, and although this picture was intentionally taken with harsh lighting as most of my progress pics have been, it's the only time I've even remotely noticed my scar since about eight months in. My normal stylist also starts with a two guard, but fades it up before the scar to a length that better conceals it. I still don't regret my strip, as this is not the type of haircut I would normally ever get, I just didn't have many options for this one cut. The point I want to drive home, best results require ongoing commitment to your hair. There is less than a week between these two sets of photos. 3 My Hair Transplant: 12/14/2020, 2,380 FUT, Dr. Konior Medication: Finasteride 1mg daily (most days I remember) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My stylist began texturizing my hair and it really does give a better illusion of density. I think she refers to it as "point cutting". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Z-- Posted July 20, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted July 20, 2022 Bro -- nice to see this thread back up. Was one of the reasons I switched to FUT with Konior (with pretty close to that graft count too!) as well and couldn't be happier so far. Thanks again for posting and congrats on the stellar result!
