    It is always easier when it is not your own head, but it looks ok.

    Especially considering it is a 12 yr old scar - it actually is a very fine scar - I am sure a ton of people with scars from that time would switch with you in a heartbeat. Guess if you cut it with a grade 3 clipper on the sides and 1.5 on top, it would look great... have you tried it?

    FUE in the scar is expensive - but could probably improve it further, but not sure it is worth the hassle and the money.

    Your head looks great for the short haircut. Keep smiling...

    I use to do a 2 guard all over and the scar didn't show through
    I am off work for a week so I decided to try the 1.5
    Now it's a matter if I can live the way it is or let it grow back to the 2
    Im not sure a 1.5 on top and 2 on the sides would look good
    Barber says sides need to eb shorter than the top , but I can ask

    And yea I had oen fellow who shaved his head e-mail me a pic of his scar
    It goes from ear to ear and is probbaly 1 / 4 wide all the way round

    Thanks for the comments

    Not too bad, mate. Go shorter even, if you feel like it.

    hey DAVE52, how many HT did you have? where is your recipient area, where the grafts were transplanted? have you considered another HT, FUE?

    Your donor scar is barely visible and yet yours is more visible than mine.

    Strip does not always leave an ugly easily visible donor scar. A gifted surgeon can hide it pretty well.

    Default It looks really good

    I just had a HT done almost 3 months ago and my scar does not look good at all. I was told by my dr that I would not be able to cut my hair with anything less that a number 3. Your scar looks really good at "1.5" I wish I could get it that short.
