My experience with a wig

[Roberto_72]

What about this? Much improved version os SMP IMO. Its called microbladding and only used for brows, but could work very well to scar or even to strenghten temple are or hairline with shaved head. This girl had no brows before.

Well isn't that a fine eye

Thanks for the first hand experience of your story. I am really considering a system but am worried about maintaience.

I wouldn't bother unless you work a white collar job, are single & relatively incel, and somewhat bald.

It's not a good option for people in the early stages of hair loss. Enjoy the freedom you have and get a transplant! it's a much better option.


A hair system is work, and restraint on your life. You will always be on the edge around women, whether it's the bond isn't on right or the color is off.


bull**** sun raped my system. They say you can wear and do whatever. SURE BRO! you will need to wear a hat whenever you are outside. I wore mine out for about a week without a cap, just walking the trails for about 30 mins a day.. in total about 3 hours being exposed and it went from dark brown to blonde all around while the middle perimeter still remained semi-brown. The dye that was used must of been crap.... to much variables. those UV sprays dont do anything


it's a hassle, and now I have to wait for my hair to grown out again. I'm ecstatic to have it back... I forget what it feels like to style your own hair. I got so used to carefully styling the system, making sure the edge wouldn't lift.

My second piece about week in. Cut it myself with thinning shears and hair pluck method.


I believe this was around 3 months post operation of my temple points and temporal angles.


all smoke & mirrors though. The appearance looks great but the feel, touch and mental anxiety is a whole different ball game. When you run your hands through, the hairline feels natural because it's graduated. But once you hit mid scalp, and crown area, it starts to feel like bristles and the hair at this length has no flow the crown stands up like a poof ball. Doesn't take a natural characteristics of laying down flat.

Hairline as I mentioned will feel natural at first, but I find myself always feeling the edge after a day or two.

The piece tends to loose that conditioned, oily feel within a matter of days. You will constantly find yor self going for the wet look or sprays loads of moisterizer. After shampooing you will need a detangler because the hair gets ratty and knotted. Which is why most wearers pat the head

Where are your "temple points"? where they in yet or was it to early?

Look at them. See the recession?

I had sides of a NW7.

Not only were they parallel, but receded in. I had my entire sides reinforced then a triangle brought out. To nearly. ... I think it was 2 half-3 months post op

Im asking if the reconstruction is visible in that pic or is that the receded points? Do you have a new pic with the rebuilt points? Id like to see them.

I have pictures of the be for and after. I'll pm you whenever I get arund to it. Reconstruction is not visible because it's to early. I mentioned it's 3 months... when hair begins to sprout.

Thats why I was asking. I wasnt sure if it was sprouting already or not. Some people say they start to see it at 3 months. I took longer to be honest.
I still have temples to be honest, I can at least be thankful for that. They could use some filling but I would need my hair loss lowered back down as well for it to look decent. I honestly cant take enough healing time off of work for that. I was able to conceal all my work the first time by combing over.

It started sprouting at 10 weeks post operation. I am around 8 months post op and it's looking great.

My hair itself is on point as fatvas being contentbeitb hairline, templr points,but like your self I just want to have a final touch up where I add a huge amount of density all over the entire scalp. Reinforce some thin area near the side of the crown. I figure a good 3000 graft procedure within the next five years. Before I am 30

Sounds good in theory but unless you have a month-2 downtime then everyone will know.

2 weeks is good enough for donor to grow back, and scabs to go away thougg

my donor is irrelevant, its always skin and both times I healed there faster than anyone hes seen before "supposedly".

How long does it take your native hair to grow back in after shaving? I've never shaved my head.

 

[scorpiolove]

I empathize with Shookwun,maybe at this time he can shave it down to a 1 guard and still look relatively young, or go to a professional toupee place to get his hair replaced. Usually you get what you pay for when it comes to hairpieces, the hairstylist glue seems tougher than the ish that's on the market. I've tried hair pieces, ghost bond, ultra hold, all the best stuff.
The best feeling I had was when I took the hairpiece off and threw it in the garbage where it belonged.

 

[kj6723]

Last time I had my head shaved down to nothing was basic training

I went from hero to zero real f*cking quick lol, but my hair was the last thing I was concerned with at the time

I'm starting to think many people are going to find out about mine

I'm in a program of study in the medical field, and although I don't start my actual clinicals until next summer, in the meantime we're doing a lot of hands on work feeling and examining each others bodies up close. I've already had to take off my hat a few times when I didn't prefer to

Is what it is I guess

I hate having to take off my hat when I don't have my hairline combover done or toppik in. Legit a big fear of mine.

My hair situation now, I don't think anyone has noticed in the brief periods I've had my hat off without having my perfected combover done up, but I'm thinking the first few month post transplant weirdness is going to be hard to miss

 

[swingline747]

Ive always wanted to shave my head and get a piece (good system) for a week or two and go on vaca somewhere, just to see.
