Thoughts? How weird is this? Also hair plugs is a hair transplant right?

Hopefully for most of us it never comes to this if you start finasteride early enough.

Seems like Buck didn't actually know what he was going in for (a hair transplant, not hair plugs) and probably didn't know about other treatments for hair loss. It always hurts to not be an informed patient.

brutal transplant.

8 transplants, how can he have enough donor hair for that? do transplants tend to just get shitty with time or something? as far as I know they are permanent so im confused.

Gotta love how these ignorant peasants make him seem like he's neurotic, and half crazy.

Blown out of proportion.

He IS crazy and neurotic, you can't have EIGHT transplants as a multi millionaire and end up with THAT result. Christ. Clearly he had a doctor who was tugging his cucumber for all he could get.

It says he got his first transplant in 1993, so there's a good chance they were indeed plugs and each early surgery might have been for no more than 500 grafts.

I think it's funny that he says he was (understandably, imo) concerned that losing his hair would mean his broadcasting career was over, but then he says it was all "vanity." Too bad he feels that way, if he's going to bother to speak out about his hair loss he might as well inform the peasants about the real pain and consequences of it and not be like tee hee hee "I'm just vain."

His career WOULD be over without and even though his result is terrible in terms of transplant potential, it's better than him being bald. The consequences he talked about honestly sound like they have absolutely nothing to do with transplant either. You can't damage a vocal chord from a hair transplant, that is bullshit plain and simple.

I saw him on TV this past Sunday and his hair actually looks really good now, especially for his age, so he must have recently done some work

Beard stubble works every time.
