Hello everyone, so I finally made the decision to go the HT route after years of contemplating on SMP or making the best out of the bald look.
Long story short, mid 30, afro hair, Id say Im probably between a Norwood 4 and 5 and most consultations has estimated between 2000-2500 graphs. My hair loss pattern and "growth" seems pretty established. I have NOT been taking minoxidil or finasteride.
From what Ive gathered Turkey is a no go for afro hair. I hear alot about Dr Bisanga and Mwamba as the go to guys. Price is not too much of a worry for me, but at the rate of those guys(Bisanga and Mwamba), might as well stay in the US and honestly Id rather avoid any international travel considering the climate of the world.
My thing is that Im looking to stay in the US(at the same time avoid NY and CA over inflated prices) and from what Im also seeing is that often times folks are paying top dollar for a doctor with an incredible rep when in actuality the techs are doing damn near 80% percent of the work. So that's something I been mindful of.
So my challenge is finding a clinic thats US based and has a rep with afro hair. I thought Id be easy but I cant seem to find any.
I did stumble across nashvillehairdoctor.com .... Now I know there are very mixed reviews about NeoGraft however I respect their transparency that the technicians will essentially be doing the whole procedure. In addition, there is some history with afro hair.
Also, speaking of NeoGraft, despite the mixed reviews, would this be more ideal for afro hair? Correct me if Im wrong, but with afro hair it appears that a bigger more blunt punch is ideal for transection rate compared to most tools used during a manual FUE procedure.
Any insight, recommendations and/or knowledge would be great? Im hoping to get this done by January.
