Maybe a cover up then! Whatever it was, it’s not required now.

This is looking great, @TopDog23, particularly the dry shot which shows how nicely the design frames your head. Just checking that you don't have any fibres in?

Cheers,
Matt

Hi Matt, not in those photos. I’ve stopped using them now. It’s still not as thick as the native hair, although when dry does look a lot better.

That's great progress if you're no longer using them - congratulations mate! I know what you mean about dry hair looking better. It definitely helps bridge the gap between thinner transplanted hairs and thicker native hair.

I used to use wet-look products, although I'd never get away with them now.

I find this works really well, with a little hairspray to keep in place.

Thanks for the tip, @TopDog23! For what it's worth, my product of choice is called Dry Muk (orange-coloured pot) and I've found it to hold really well while having a very matte finish. I used it to good effect to conceal my baldness for years and managed to avoid fibres.

donor, wet and dry.

The 3rd picture with your hair dry is looking good. Not using any fibres must be pleasing and give a confidence boost.
Overall, you’re making good progress for 6 months.
Thanks for the update.

Hair styled, no fibres. Really coming on now. Was a harder journey than I expected although absolutely worth it.

Looking great! Would you say from month 5 is when you started to notice real changes?

Sorry for the late reply. It’s funny as at 5 months it felt like it looked really good, although that wasn’t reflected in the photos. I’d say the last fortnight there’s been a noticeable difference.

8 months progress

Overall I’m really happy with it. To spend a couple of minutes styling it in the morning, and not worry about the wind, rain or going swimming is such a weight off. Also being able to go to any barber without thinking twice and being self conscious is great.

The left temple still seems really quite thin, where I part it, although hoping that fills in a bit over next 4 months.
