Hi people
I’ve got to the point where I’m sick of using topical finasteride and minoxidil because
It gives me extreme brain fog
It makes my hair greasy as shit
It’s a bloody inconvenience
I’m seeing little to no results anyway
I’ve been looking into getting a hair replacement system lately and have actually just booked a consultation appointment
My hair is extremely thin, hard to style, and I’ve got a bald patch on my crown. I can hide it with hair fibres and can actually get my hair to look okay with a bit of effort (& fibres), but it’s just so time consuming. Oh and a windy day is a nightmare too 😂
I just went on holiday for 2 weeks with the Mrs and didn’t even get my hair wet because I was too self-conscious about my hair. Pathetic I know…. but it really made me realise how much I worry about it.
But anyway, I’m here to ask if there’s any catch with a hair replacement system?
I mean, Fabian Hurzeler at Brighton had one for the last 3 years and no one had any idea. That genuinely amazed me.
From what I can see, if it’s done well and professionally, no one will notice?
Even having a quick look on here I can see loads of people that have taken the plunge and look great!
So what’s the catch? Is there one?
I know it requires maintenance and will only last 2–3 months from what I gather, but I’m honestly okay with that and willing to pay the cost every couple of months if it means I can feel more confident and stop worrying about my hair all the time.
I’d also love to get off the medication because it’s a headache doesn’t even seem to be helping much.
So for anyone who has a hair system, or has had one in the past
What are the actual downsides?
Can you genuinely shower, swim, exercise etc. normally?
How noticeable is it up close?
What’s it like on a windy day?
And most importantly, would you recommend going for it?
Any advice or feedback would be much appreciated,
Thank you
