Need help with options...

Hi, I just took some pics with the webcam on my laptop. I was hoping someone can hopefully tell me what would look best for me.

-The first picture shows how well I hide my thinning by growing the top long and brushing it over my front. The other pics show the honest thinning. I'm 34 now and am out the point where I can't hide it anymore..

-I have dry, black, wirey, sparse hair and always have as part of my ethnic background. I do NOT have thin hair follicles of a very high count creating a silky hair.

-I have gray hairs on the sides of my head, but my wife plucks them nightly. After tanning a lot this summer, I swear it has gotten much worse and I have many gray hairs in my beard and chest. It will only get worse.

I want a full head of hear that looks attractive. I'm not sure what type of hair loss I have, or what procedure would look best for my hair.

Say a woman has a flat sagging, chest. Many would recommend to resolve the issue with a push up bra. Or, to get the real deal, she could get implants. But if she REALLY wants to go all out, she needs the implants, plus a breast lift and nipple reconstruction to look amazing.

I want my hair to look amazing if I'm goign to go through all the time and money with fixing my hair.

I am not a lawyer or rich.. just middle class so soemthing that is not too out there. I guess a lot of this depends on cost.

But I know nothing about hair loss and know that what works for one person may not work for another.

What do you guys think?

Thanks for the help!

Well, you'll never get the silky hair you want. I have coarse wirey hair too--it really sucks. My mom has it but she can straighten it or let it get long and curly and either way it looks decent. Mine sucks.

The first thing I'd do is immediately start on finasteride of some sort (Preferrably 1mg a day for starters) and minoxodil. You actually look like someone that will see a lot of improvement within one year.

You'll probably be close to the most you'll regrow after the one year timeframe. After that, if you still aren't satisfied, you could do a hair transplant to fill in. But, I would not jump right on board the hair transplant route. It looks expensive, only a few doctors are really trusted from what I've seen, and you don't want to get one until after you've done all you can with finasteride and minoxodil

If it is an amazing looking hair you want...your best bet is a wig. Bad hair doesn't have anything to do with male pattern baldness. It's my case as well. Even if I didn't have any hairloss whatsoever, I'd have to straighten it, and style it well to make it look decent.

In fact, if things get too crappy down the road, I'm wearing a piece (a good one though).
