    Turkey clinics. How to balance out cost and quality

    Prices in Turkey are rising (exchange rate and significant increase in cost of living in Turkey), and there are many hair Mills who will give you cheap mediocre results that some are happy enough with. If you want a good hair transplant for OK money then guys like Turan and Gur are a good bet. A few years...

    How long can I use Dermmatch after transplant?

    Hi all, I have a question about how long I need to wait after my transplant until I can use Dermmatch. I expect to have a red scalp for 4-8 weeks after the transplant, and also start to shed. I would like to cover the redness and later the shedding using Dermmatch so it is not so obvious to work...

    Is my scalp fat getting thinner or my head getting bumpier?

    Hi guys, I have noticed over three last few weeks that I can feel ridges at the back of my head (crown) and have found a sunken in dip about the size of my index finger pad also. I have been losing hair around my crown for about 8 years and it has progressed with time. I wonder if the fatty...

    What is the best way to show/tell your dating partner that you are bald?

    I suspect you have a far bigger problem with your hair loss than she will - she will have a bigger problem with your awkwardness about your hair than she will about your hair, in fact, she is probably more concerned with her own looks and insecurities than she is your looks - be cool about it...

    Any posts of post transplant after untranslated hair continues to disappear

    Does anyone have any photos (or link to other posts) of someone who has had a transplant to fill in the temples or crown and then the rest of the hair on top was lost leaving only strange patches of hair?

    Anyone losing more hair after having c0vid?

    As per the title, I had it in Sept and feel my hair is definitely worse all over the top - crown more obviously thinning and hairline seems thinner. Any stories? Any chance it will come back (to my normal balding level)?

    Today i have my first Hair system, im not happy at all.

    Until I saw your second set of photos showing the hairline I honestly thought you were a troll having a laugh - it looks totally natural when you can't see the hairline up close. I understand that a nw2 style is very natural and I would agree with you as it looks both more natural and less...

    Old treatments - spin traps, copper peptides, azelaic acid, etc

    Hi all, I'm curious to understand if the older experimental treatments have fallen out of favour or if they are still considered useful? I am thinking about things like traps, copper peptides, azelaic acid, etc. Billy

    Applying Concealer In Artificial Light - Winter Is Coming

    Hi guys, I have grey/whitish hair and apply grey dermmatch then some flecks of white dermmatch to mimic the rest of my hair. In the summer under natural light it is easy to get it looking natural but in artifical light (like at 6am in the winter when I am getting ready for work) I think it...

    Topical Magnesium - Friend Or Foe - Opinions Please

    Hi all, So I read that some people put magnesium cream or spray on their heads as it is believed magnesium deficiency is a partial exacerbater of hair loss and balding scalps typically lack magnesium, then I read that hard water increases hair loss due to having too much calcium and magnesium...
