I have posted something similar before.  But during the early stages of losing my luscious locks like manay i trawled the web trying to think whether a transplant was the way to go etc etc.  Now I occasionally look back at those forums to try and suggest that there is an alternative.  I stumbled across this post this morning:

Take a look about the 3rd post down.  And that is being claimed a 'great result'.  What happens if this guy loses more hair?

My God, that looks f---ing miserable.  Why would someone subject themselves to such a procedure?

[Morthen]

that is horrifying

Despair?

What's so sad is that they're all so proud of their self-mutilation.

[xnewyawka]

Total desperation!

Sad, yes, and sort of strange that they seem to "admire" a doctor who doesn't cure disease

I'm not particularly squeamish, but I can't look at photos like that.

Okay, I could understand it for reconstructive surgery after a disfiguring accident, I could understand it for some life-saving neuro surgery, but I can't understand why anyone would put themselves through this intentionally....just to have more hair. 

OWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!

This is so sad!  Here the guy is thousand of dollars in the whole and 10 months later still has not found the confidence or hair that he is looking for.  If he would have come here first he would have needed $20 and 10 minutes to find what he's looking for.

this is why transplants are not the way to go, i have had two cousins that are doing a transplant route, both are norwood 7A
Iam at Norwood 4
They ridicule me for shaving my head, calling me horrible names, ive been called a stupid idiot
One cousin just had a transplant with Medical Hair Restoration and spent 15,000 dollars, he had a previous transplant with Hair Club and spent 8,000 dollars that didnt work, another spent 12,000 dollars at Bosley, both cousins refuse to have their pictures taken, if they hve a picture taken, they will put a toupee on.

spent 12,000 dollars at Bosley

once again, that is horrifying

Don't say that too loud.  My wife might hear you.    She still thinks that I need longer than her to get ready and I need all of that shaving gadget stuff.

That looks really bad.

That is the part I noticed most. That really disturbs me.
