Administrators Melvin- Admin Posted January 7, 2021 Administrators Share Posted January 7, 2021 Alright guys, So a few weeks ago Floyd Mayweather revealed he had an HT. Looked like he just got an HT. Now, he’s posted some recent pictures showing full results. Any theories? My guess is he got it done a while ago, and only now decided to reveal his results. What do you guys think? Another possibility is that he’s at the phase where the grafts haven’t shed yet. I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

The first pic he sorta looks like Kanye, if those are his full results, I’d say it looks pretty good. But I’m leaning towards the grafts haven’t shed, if that’s true he heals excellent.

Senior Member TommyLucchese Posted January 7, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 7, 2021 He looks great, that's taken him back to the 2000s. 2,000 grafts FUT Dr. Feller, July 27th 2012. 23 years old at the time. Excellent result. Need crown sorted eventually but concealer works well for now. Propecia and minoxidil since 2010. Fine for 8 years - bad sides after switching to Aindeem in 2018. Switched to topical fin/minox combo from Minoxidil Max in October 2020, along with dermarolling 1x a week. Wrote a book for newbies called Beating Hair Loss, available on Amazon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Curious25 Posted January 8, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 8, 2021 If the timeline of when he first posted his freshly transplanted selfie was indeed immediately post op, then these recent photos are of the initial 2-3 weeks post surgery where grafts are still present and are yet to shed. It’s what I call the honeymoon period - where you have a newly created frame to your face, and a pretty nice and dense looking buzz cut style to rock . . All before the ugly duckling phase kicks you back down in the dumps again for a few months 😅 He must be pretty confident his defence and shoulder role are both still as sharp as ever considering he’s fighting next month . . I can’t imagine taking a few blows being ideal for the grafts in their early stages of growth! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member hairlossPA Posted January 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) i’ll be honest i’ve never been a fan of beard transplants. they look so bad/fake in my opinion Edited January 9, 2021 by hairlossPA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member deitel130 Posted January 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) His HT looks great though. Not so sure though why he wasted grafts on a beard. People generally save beard grafts for the hair. Don't get me wrong beards rock but I feel he should have kept some for the head but again not sure of his level of loss. Guys how about if he just didn't shed and grafts just grew. Even when he used to be off between fights he never used to let his weight fluctuate much. He claims to not drink and his only bad habit are his twinky cravings lol. Maybe staying really active and healthy got his blood circulation really good and the grafts just kept growing.

I don't drink, never smoked, never used any drugs, lifted weights regularly in highschool, but none of that ever helped my hair. I was a NW6 in my early 20s. The weight lifting actually made my hair fall out faster, so I don't think staying healthy has much to do with it. 4 Al Forum Moderator (formerly BeHappy) I am a forum moderator for hairrestorationnetwork.com.

I was a NW6 in my early 20s. The weight lifting actually made my hair fall out faster, so I don't think staying healthy has much to do with it. I agree staying healthy has nothing to do with hair loss. Tbh honest I don't really think it has much to do with shedding either. My two hair transplants were 10 years apart. In my 9th year post HT I started lifting weights again and I noticed I started losing a lot of my native hair. I was still on Finasteride but it seemed like the weight lifting caused my body to produce more testosterone and thus more conversion to DHT. The Finasteride probably couldn't keep the levels as low as it was keeping normally as a result. Prior to this I honestly was not even planning a second HT in the near future. So I also like you found hair loss being accelerated as a result of the weight lifting - I was not on any performance enhancers. I mostly read that there is no relationship to lifting weights and hair loss but again this has not been studies very well. But I did come across a few articles stating that DHT increase occurs. So yes, anyone not impacted by DHT would be fine but those that are can lose hair at a faster pace. Here is a recent video I found on this subject as well.

Senior Member Curious25 Posted January 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2021 You probably don't need studies to confirm what would just be logical science to anyone who understands the principles and foundations of hair loss and weight lifting. 1000's of studies have proved and confirmed that weight lifting can increase testosterone levels. More T = More DHT. Persons with DHT sensitive follicles will therefore be subject to a higher drive of punishment from our favourite hormone. Therefore a fair assumption would be people who are susceptible to hair loss, will possibly be prone to accelerated hair loss from an increase in testosterone induced from weight lifting. There is obviously no definitive 'this will always be the case' conclusion, as individually, testosterone increases will vary, as will the impact different levels of increased T will have on their hair loss. Take anabolic steroids for instance - they don't cause balding, they merely speed it up on those who are prone to it. Same concept, however at a lower significance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed my hair loss accelerated once I started weight lifting in my early 20’s. I do think it can speed it up, since you’re getting an increase in testosterone. Some supplements like creatine can also cause a higher DHT conversion. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic.

Senior Member BaldingtimetoLdar Posted January 9, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted January 9, 2021 Speaking of Logan Paul, this reminded me that it looks like he got a hair transplant as well. I wonder if Logan advised him to go to the same doctor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
