I did way better with broads when I gave up and went clean shaven. I don't get the crazy fear of going bald.

So you lost your hair and had a midlife crisis? Did that really work for you?

You can be shallow and still have substance, you just know what attracts the best looking mate. It's just how it is.

ETA: No hair plugs, but I do take Propecia.

How does constantly paying for a prescription for Propecia which may cause impotence amongst other side effects compare to getting a hair transplant?

I'm blessed with a good head.

But line me up when my hairline was good/better and now.

Most chicks would pick me with the hairline and it's the truth.

Depends on how many grafts.

Dude said he had 3? That's the thing, if I did it now, the rest of the hair will just continue to fall out, have to go back again and again.

How much this procedures set you back?

I always heard it cost an arm and a leg to get hair replacement surgery and you have to keep coming back for more treatments

It is the exact same concept. Regardless, I get proscar, it costs like $3/month. If I take it for the rest of my life it's still way less than transplants and it's still the same hair. Regardless, a very small percentage of men have that issue. Sorry you're angry it works for me.

Of course you do, because genetically speaking, your follicles are shrinking down due to DHT. So as you age, you'll have to address the other follicles that shrunk. That's effectively what Propecia does for most men, blocks that affect on your hair follicle. Some have side effects, some don't.

Lebron either waited too long or isn’t going to the right place. There are other people with hair transplants or whatever who look way better

I take the generic prostate meds that propecia was spun off of. It’s a fraction of the price. I’ve been in it nearly 20 year with zero side affects. I have a glorious head of thick brown hair and in bed, I can still drive a rail spike.

If the same money was used to buy pussy, a chrome Dome wouldn't worry about baldness.

8K per session. Unless you are Norwood 1 or better, you are looking at multiple sessions. A doc who ONLY does hair transplants will be able to give you a long term idea of where you are on Norwood scale based on age and observing the MPB area's overall density, and will outline a plan for you based on that.

PRP is also amazing for scalp health and keeping blood supply to head, but its only good for about 6 months so needs to be done 2x year to get optimal results.

SMP is fantastic for after you done procedure enough to get overall coverage, adding the illusion of density




This is what Lebron should do, right now I'm pretty sure he just uses toppik, which also works great but dimishes quickly and completely with shampoo

Paying all that money for hair and still having to pay for pussy.

Definitely has come along way.

Much more finesse inolvoved than it used to in terms of the procedure and technique. how many follicles per unit, where to place them, and how layer them appropriately, etc.
