HAIR TRANSPLANTS FORGET IT!

[kojakJR]

Hey guys,

I remember when I started to shave a month ago my Dad did not mind. He was actually cool with it but my mom didn't approve. She was like why are you going to such an extreme? You still have hair all you need is some transplants and you should be okay. I just told her that will never happen because I am not ashamed of how I look and I don't consider it a "problem" anymore. And to think I would be spending thousands of dollars on hair when I could easily spend all of that money on my 91 Isuzu Trooper  .

But I still get annoyed how our culture always depicts the bald guy as evil and ugly especially in movies. I just hate that AHHHHH!!!

So true KojakJR. Way to set your mom straight.

Hair transplants look ridiculous and are a waste of time and the end result is much much worse than having a Sly slick dome.

Good choice in avoiding the hair transplant, KojakJR.  A friend of mine had one a while ago and now is hesitant to go sly because he has scars on his head from the surgery.

[kojakJR]

Honestly I do not blame the guys who get the hair transplants and other various surgeries, but when you look at those commercials it truly has a psychological effect on people who are at the breaking point on deciding whether to accept it or to "do" something about it.

Mike, I also find it amazing that people consider getting hair transplants normal but shaving their head extreme.  Congrats on your confidence in your choice!

Couldn't have said it better

I've heard of many a people who have gotten the transplants, and who are now suffering because their hairloss continued, and they would love to be able to shave their head, but are self conscious about the obvious scars...

Geez, I can't think of a worse decision than to go the transplant route with permanent scars. Whereas after shaving clean if you don't like it, it's just a matter of time before things are back to "normal".

But "normal" for me will always be smooth and shiny!

Yeah, Chico....there is not much talk about the long-term effects, because the procedures do not HALT continued hair loss.

mike.... i agree with all the sly brahs on this subject.   

But I still get annoyed how our culture always depicts the bald guy as evil and ugly especially in movies. I just hate that AHHHHH!!!

however.....i have 2 disagree with ya on that movies/tv depict the bald guy as evil/ugly.  I.E.  bruce "ultimate sly guy" willis, vin diesel, sean connery,  patrick stewart, samuel l. jackson,  taye diggs,  ll cool j, cuba gooding,jr., michael rausenbaum (lex in smallville), & howie mandel...just 2 name a few.  these fellow sly guys r considered kool & the lay-days definitely feel the same.

Have to agree with Warhawk.  I think this was more in the early days of headshaving....and, yeah, in earlier TV / Movies.

just say no to rugs, plugs, and drugs. yes to razors.

That's an awesome video!  Every guy that is dealing with hair loss should watch that as it details the exact emotions of a guy dealing with hair loss and the powers of embracing it in a very short amount of time.  Great find Mike!
