Mat, a Bosley rep, looked at my bald spot and told me that I needed a hair transplant.  He said that a transplant was the only solution, that nothing else would actually grow hair (such as Rogaine).  Like I said earlier, I caught my hair loss early and decided to try and correct the problem.  My profile picture is very similar to how my bald spot looked.  Actually, before I had the transplant, I could brush my hair a certain way and cover up the bald spot.  After surgery, I can not do that now. 

Mat told me that If I had a transplant with Bosley that my bald spot would be filled in, in 6 months.  He told me I needed 1000 grafts and it would cost $7,235.00.  He slid the contract to me and I read it.  And before I agreed, I asked him directly,  If I have this transplant with Bosley, will my bald spot be filled in,  in 6 months, and he said Yes.  I believed him,  I believed in Bosley (because of the info I had researched, such as surveys and info on web site and brochure), I signed contract and left feeling good about this, NOT knowing what was in store for down the road!

Met with matt from Bosley.  Met him at another company.  He was using a room there.  He apologized for meeting there (this surprised and confused me a little, the room was a "room" in an office building, seemed okay to me.) He said they were doing some work on his office and that's why we were meeting here at this office.  Looking back, this was the beginning of a deceptive journey, I was about to begin!

Received info about hair transplant from Bosley.  Read everything (twice).  The before and after pictures were amazing. Very impressive results.  I was at the beginning stages of typical male pattern baldness.  Hair loss on top or the crown(I think).  My hair loss had just started and I was already using Toppik(which really works), so nobody even knew I had a problem.  I thought because I had caught it early and was taking action now, that this would be and easy and effective solution(transplant).  So after reading everything I could about Bosley(online and from the info Bosley sent) I decided to call and  make an appointment with Bosley.  The rep from Bosley was super nice on the phone and quickly made an appoinment for me next week.  She wanted to make it that week but I couldn't, and I was surprised at just how fast Bosley wanted to see me.(I have a opinion about this, I will explain later).  Once again the day ended on a positive note, excited and hopeful!

I started searchin online for solutions.  Hair Transplant seemed to be the only permenant solution.  Looked at all companies that specialized in hair transplants and decided to go with Bosley Hair Restoration.  All of Bosley's info online was positive.  Much like the 2010 Survey that came out this year, that says 70% of  patients were satisfied with results.  (Be careful with this, because I know for a fact that Bosley does not deliver on promises and Guarantees.) 

Anyway back to my story.  Can't tell you how excited and hopeful I was about the hair transplant with Bosley.  I was extremely embarrased and insecure about the "bald spot".  So I asked Bosley to send info on procedure.  I remember logging off that day feeling relieved and hopeful that I had found a solution to my dreaded problem!

My story begins in my late 30's when I noticed my hair thinning on top.  Started looking for solutions right away.  Used rogain.  Then started taking propecia.  By this time, my hair loss was noticable.  Just a small area, but noticable.  And being noticable was big to me.  May not have been a big deal to anybody else, but it was a big deal to me!  I wish that I wasn't so insecure about this, but I am, damn it!
