This profile journey is my benchmark for considering the job there. Mine too. Well, I already did mine, and am exactly 4 months behind Etwan. My hair color is right in between this and Bandit's. But because I had the same "do it once, do it right" approach as Etwan (whereas bandit had a two-step procedure) I am following this very closely and hope for frequent updates 😃 Edited February 26, 2023 by Xanadu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In reality, most adult men do not have perfect heads of hair; the majority show some amount or area of loss, and for those of us who had so much of our natural youthful expectations aggressively taken away from us, our main goal is simply to get a good amount of hair back on our heads that looks presentable. I honestly can’t really even put into words how renewed I feel, after not even 6 months. The change in confidence and personal acceptance is indescribable. 6 Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

You are ahead of me in the timeline. I would be curious to learn what your thoughts are now that you are almost 6 months in? What about the current state makes you insecure? Any contexts where you feel comfortable not using hat or anything? If your remaining issue is density, then how much more density do you think you would need to feel secure to not use a hat in social situations?

It'll also be a look that a patient will grow into very naturally as the thinner look in those areas will be totally age appropriate down the line. Totally agree on this. Sure everyone would love a nice crown and no thinning but at the end of the day 99% of the interactions that matter are face to face where framing matters. If anything the midline right behind the hairline would be most important to support the fulness from the front. And of course, IMHO, temples are the best bang for the buck. 2 http://www.hairtransplantnetwork.com/blog/home-page.asp?WebID=3054 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member general-etwan Posted March 27, 2023 Author Senior Member Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) Hey y'all! I'm good, just been busy with some different things and starting a new job. Growth has continued to come in consistently well. 6 months: I'm struggling with styling since I never had hair to style as an adult. Crazy to think but true. My goal is to eventually be able to grow it to something close to this: Obviously the density of my scalp will never be the same as someone who does not suffer from MPB, but do you think I could get relatively close to this hairstyle if I let it keep growing? I have some sea salt spray and might try another styling powder that can help increase volume and perceived density. My biggest challenge now going forward is the rear lower crown area. No recent pics, sorry, but as discussed before, that's the area that has suffered significant thinning and was not targeted with this HT. When I get a fresh cut, my entire scalp can look properly tapered, but it'll depend on constant short haircuts and when I want to let it grow longer, that'll be a problem because the lower crown area will look flat when it should be thicker compared to the lower back of the head for a proper taper. Eventually I may inquire about a 2nd HT to address that lower crown and try to settle on as uniform of a density across the entire head as possible. Will be something to think about come this summer... Edited March 27, 2023 by general-etwan 2 1 1 Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

Yep, hairline looks about as good as I could have ever expected. Looks natural, no doubles or triple grafts, growing in great. I'm very glad I put my trust in the team at Eugenix to do it right! I just can't wait for it to grow even longer so I can cover the forehead. 1 Instagram: ethanlculver Eugenix (Drs.

I'm following your post with great interest as I've a similar hair state to yours (pre op). The result is very impressive. The only thing that's stopping me is the hormonal intervention, namely finasteride, as I don't want to take it. I'm 46 and hoping my balding has settled.
