Getting on with life (Hair Multiplication & Research)

ť ť Epiker, Rev is right. If you are thinning slowly and plan to use FUE,
ť then
ť ť I don't think it is a problem if you become a NW6 or NW7. At worst you
ť can
ť ť have the transplanted hairs replanted somewhere else via FUE again -
ť I've
ť ť seen this happen.
ť ť
ť ť I think the people to get best advice from are those who have had a HT
ť and
ť ť have gone through that experience, rather than someone who hasn't.
ť
ť Exactly, he could always get a very small fue session to see if the
ť procedure leaves any "dot" scars before he continues. With FUE, he could
ť always buzz his head in his 50s/ 60s and people will be none-the-wiser.

Glad to see you guys see it the way I do, that's pretty much my plan. Until we have a cure, hairloss is inevitable for many of us-so we need to make the best of the situation with what's available.

I realize a HT won't be permanent but it's a good interim solution till something better comes along and if nothing does, at least I get to enjoy 5-10 years (hopefully) of having the appearance of a normal head of hair. That's more time than I need to party as much as I want and then settle down.

HanginginThere is making it sound as if I'll be a NW7 tomorrow but my hairloss has been gradual and its only been noticeable once I entered my 30s, nearly identical to my father's progression and he still had reasonable coverage into his 50s. That's why I believe a NW 6/7 is still at least a decade or two off for me. And like you said Rev, I'll just buzz it off once it gets bad in my 60s, no one will care what I look like at that age anyway. :-)
