My cousin scream and yelled at me thru the phone when i called Dr Shapiro, who will do my cousins next hair transplant in the fall a charletan,
My cousin was promised his hair back, and it will cost him about 20,000 dollars for the procedure,
he proceded to call me a stupid fool for shaving my head

Well we all know the story by now, and who's the stupid fool again? :/O
-
You did your best to make your cousin see sense; guess he's just going to have to find out the hard way. :(
-
Well, if your cousin believes that, why don't you sell him a bridge, Brooklyn or otherwise. You might as well get some of his loot. Just be nice when he comes to ask about shaving and what to do with the scars and other damage.

$20,000 worth - -What a fool
-
Just think of all the Schick Hydro 5 Blades and Bald Guyz Shave cream that would buy.
What a waste!

I'm a libertarian. How about just live and let live? He seems as invested in his position as you are in yours. After all it's his head and his money.

Also Beer and Headwipes.

So, how long will you have to wait until it's all said and done, and you can say the classic "I told you so"?? ::)

20 grand for a transplant ? !!!
Thats ROBBERY !!!
where i live now it dosnt exceed $2500 !!!! for a FULL HEAD transplant!!!
iv done extensive research on it and chose NOT TO transplant, and save the money !!!!
The scars are visible 80% of the time .
AFTER the transplant you are given prescription of drugs which u have to consume till you die to keep that FAKE clog of dead protein on your head !!!
And the medicines they give you slow down DHT n stuff .
You know what THAT means right???????????????? ::)
Hair loss is caused MOST of the times by excessive Testosterone !!!! :D
Embrace your MANHOOD !!
Show this ^ to your cousin !
Or else we anyway know WHO WILL HAVE THE LAST LAUGH !!!
-
Wait so..he's spending 20,000 dollars on HT Surgery..
and hes calling you a stupid fool?
I don't think I need to point out the irony there.
-
I guess you can do is urge him to read the stories of those who had a transplant and weren't quite happy with it after the procedure. There was one posted on this forum not so long ago.

Some people get "brainwashed" into a certain mindset, on certain issues, concerning their appearance/health, and are convinced that the solution that they have been "tricked" into believing is the ONLY solution that will bring them the happiness they are looking for. ANYONE who disagrees or has a different p.o.v. is considered to be "stupid" and their opinion is not the least bit valued!!
We've all been there in one way or another, in similar situations, involving either family or close buddies! Once they have their mind made up, it's useless to argue the point. Sometimes you have to let them learn their lesson the hard way, no matter the cost!!
Yeah.. you hate to see a loved one waste that much $$$ on "a pipe dream"- something that you know they won't be fully happy with down the road, but they're gonna' do what they're gonna' do anyway, no matter how many people try and persuade them not to.
You did your part in attempting to get him to rethink his position, but seems like your cousin disregarded your opinion totally. Next best thing to do now is to wish him luck, stand by the sidelines and "watch the game"!!
I wouldn't let it bother you, unless you're the one he's asked to cough up the $20-G's!! - :o

Sad... really sad!

When it's April fools' day tell hm you will get a hair transplant.
He might actually believe you. :*))

I'm kind of on the fence on this one. Granted you care a lot about your cousin, but at the same time, to call the quack, money hungry doctor, I think was out of line on your part. Personally, IMO you should have taken and 2x4 and beat your cousin's head until he came to his senses. As the others have said, you will have your day.

I think one of us (not sure who) is misreading his post. I read it that he called the doctor a charlatan while talking to his cousin, not that he called the doctor up and criticized him.
