HT Planning, 28 year old (Hair Transplant)

The hair on top is very fine because it's dying, but the hair on the back, around the nape, is thick and wavy. I also have thick body hair. I will attempt to get some pics of the back of my head. I am willing to undergo many procedures. The only problem is time--and that's just fine because I do agree with you when you say that this isn't something I should just jump into. I plan on having the first procedure in approximately 1 year (not only to give it more thought, but also because of scheduling and possible HM news I want to know). There's also one other doc I'm considering who I didn't mention: Dr. Jones. His stuff seeems impressive. And I suppose there is a small chance I may get enough time off to go to Australia which would mean . . . As far as Dr. Arvind is concerned, I am respectfully sckeptical. I regard Dr. Woods as one of the top, if not the very top HT surgeon in the world. And some of the things he says about Dr. Arvind's techniques make me question the shock loss rates. But, as I said, I say it respectfully because I have seen a number of great HT pics from Dr. Arvind--and I'm not a trichologist, so I don't fully appreciate what they're talking about---but that's why I'm here having this discussion! I want to understand the differences and disagreements without stirring any conflicts. I think this is a reasonable thing to want. Also, Hairsite, I am wanting to have near Wassup results. I'm willing to have a bald spot at the BACK of my head. I also have body hair which, pardon me for the improrpiety, I've been told by a few women feels like head hair--and it's quite long (most approx 1.5-2 inches). From a lot of the posts I've seen (and comments from doctors) these hairs at least take on SOME of the characteristics of head hair. Even if they remained they same length I would be able to achieve a lot with the BH follicles. Another important thing for me is to have the ability to shave my head without any scars. I know Woods is excellent for this. This is very important for me because I know that bad things can happen with even the best HT docs, so I want to be prepared for the worse case. I love this site and I thank you all for your feedback.
