Hi All,
Does anyone here know if there are methods of removing head hair permanently? 8)

I do not believe there is.

Laser hair removal is an option. It may not remove it permanently (though it usually does) it does generally work pretty well. It works better for people with light skin and dark hair (less skin irritation, less pain, more effective) but there are also options for darker skinned/lighter haired peeps too. I can't tell you price (depends where you get it and stuff) but from everything I read it is a good option. I believe a couple of member have done it, if you search the archives you may find the thread...

Hey, as nuts as it sounds I'm actually considering trying it. I'm curious, do you regret doing it? If you could go back would you have done it knowing what you do now?

I'm also thinking about it for the near future. I'd like to have it done on my neck (both front & back) and possibly the dome.

No regrets here. Dan I sent u a separate message. Mine was a different situation as Ive stated before. I had old style hair tranplants and had half of them removed after dermabrasion and surgery. Why laser? To even out the scalp but I took the laser a few steps further to have a permanent MPB look so I wouldnt have to do this sh*t again. I have punchhole scars in the back and I will not spend another $2,500 to have them dermabrasioned 2 or 3 more times. Takes 6-8 weeks to heal after each treatment and u look like u got out of a car accident a month earlier.
I'd do it again Dan. As a matter of fact, if I had never had transplants, and it was available say 15 years ago, I would have done my whole head.
To Scott: You definitely have one of the top 3-5 domes on this site to shave; it would work wonders with you.
