Okay so I haven't been feeling too well today and just replied to a bunch of posts cuz I guess it's cathartic for me in a sense, anyway; plus I can really sympathize with anyone who takes this crap as hard as I do, although I still am blessed in many ways, I can concede to that.....
I barely see any black people with hair transplants on the various hair transplant Doctor websites and the ones that I do see for the most part suck ALOT....with sparse hairs along the hairline and no crown work at all....Our density must really be terrible....
I mean if I went anywhere with that sparse of a hairline, it would be like "what's the point"....I would wind up cutting into my hairline like I always do to remove the sparse hairs that really aren't cosmetically viable at all....
Whereas, I have seen some really great hair transplants with Caucasian males, ostensibly life-changing results....
If and when I get a transplant, I gotta go to someone who specializes in African-Americans lol....but I know that person doesn't exist, because from my experience, most black folk say f*** it and shave the sh*t off, which I simply can't do, thus I surmise they don't get to practice on us a whole lot......One of the reasons I did a consult with Dr. Feller is because 1 of the 3(I think) black guys that he had on his site had a pretty nice result (the shaved down guy)...but he was probably the only surgeon I had seen with this type of result on a black man....I also found one result on one of his patients where the guy was a black dude with the hairline made to be straight across, which actually looked okay too.....but it was on another website......
And how can anyone afford a hair transplant....these people must have really lucrative professions....I mean I have a decent job, I have my Master's degree(won't divulge in what).....but damn, times are hard, going through a recession :woot: ....gotta pay bills, do these places have payment plans or something?
Sorry for my rant, but I am really serious....these are serious questions.....Please answer these questions or provide insight if you happen to peruse this thread......
