Senior Member StillAlive Posted August 6, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted August 6, 2023 Your mileage may vary depending on success of the operation, age, speed of growth, your degree of baldness and whether you are using minoxidil or not. Your hair type also factors into this, some hair grows downwards and gives coverage faster, whereas other hair grows straight out like a porcupine, so it needs considerable length in order to look good. Don't look at 'insane' YouTube/Instagram results where guys turn into werewolves in the 4th month. It's a journey and a marathon. Reserve your judgement until at least Month 9.
