Wayne Rooney Hair transplant

[sausage]

Rooney had no shock loss and had no shedding, if he did it was very brief and very soon after the surgery.

Its pretty impossible to tell for sure which photos he is wearing concealer and which he isn't.

I give up I don't know what to think.

I will just keep an eye on his hair and see if it shows up any signs of thinning, and possibly wait to see what he does in the summer.

It is " suppose " to take up to a year to get full growth

Of course a month " post " surgery will look thin as the transplanted hairs fall out , and he may have experienced some shockloss.

If I were to guess, and I could very well be wrong, but he's probably using some type of product in his hair to may it appear thicker / fuller than it really is

Those points , probbaly the doc's irregular hairline -- I'm only guessing now .

No one has a perfectly straight hairline so the doc probbaly made it irregular so when it grows out it will look more natural

This photo I have come across concerns me as his hair looks pretty thin. These were taken a month post surgery.

I am confused as to why he is hair looks so thin here....



But here, not long after the above photo was taken his hair looks thick....



This was taken this month, here it looks insanely thick:



Oh its too confusing, is dermatch conning me?

In this photo his hair does look a bit odd, powdery like:

Can someone explain to me what those points are at the front of his hairline, they appear every half centimetre along his hairline..




Here is one of him before surgery:



Here is one where it looked light:



Here is one with wet hair:



And here is 3 of him through time:

I recall reading that It always looks denser immideiately after the HT because the blood that forms make it look like more work was done ....or something like that .

I don't think that photo has been taken immediately after surgery. Maybe a few days. Not really much scabbing, just the big red sore patch. Here's another:

Here is another photo Rooney tweeted a few months back:



Here he is having a haircut and his hair looks amazing. He surely would not be wearing Dermatch whilst having a haircut?

So if we are going to speculate what his hair looks like without any Dermatch/hair die or whatever in it then aren't these 2 photos good photos to go by?

The 2nd photo is side view

See if you can find a pic front the front , top and back

I was just thinking back to the first shot of his Hair Transplant that he posted on Twitter:



He clearly is not wearing Dermatch in this photo.....the new grafted hair looks a decent density although I understand that 10-20% of grafted hair may have been lost since then as can be expected.

But....does everyone agree that this is the best photo to judge his density on, you would expect that to have grown out into a fairly decent head of hair as it looks like anyone would look with a shaved head, possibly a little thinner.

My post was not supposed to sound aggressive more sarcastic.

As I said I always here people say, make sure you do your research, you need to do more research etc.

It does make you wonder how much research there is, I mean if you have common sense you should be able to work out what you need to know pretty quickly. I am definately not rushing into anything.

I would not say I am too young for a transplant, I understand it is recommended that you have a transplant when your hair is quite far gone and surgeons prefer you to at least be 25/26 years old. My hair is far enough gone. I am at the stage Wayne Rooney was at before his transplant, I am a year older than him (27).

I will be getting a digital camera soon and sending the photos round to many surgeons for consultation so I know what to expect and need.

I am in communication with Mattj via email, who is helping me out.

Its all good.

Hey Sausage

I know its a pain in the ass sifting through everything , at the end of the day people dont want you to make a mistake thats all , we all want the right outcome for ourselves and others

If i remember right your young to have a procedure I may have allready asked but if you can get some pictures up it would help people advise you
re what stage of hairloss your at ! if your young and hairloss is aggressive may be sensible go small fue route into the frontal third , just a thought

all the best

I understand Winston, but my join date means nothing.

I have suffered with hairloss for 10 years, I am definately not rushing into anything. I know what I need to do hense all my many recent posts on this forum.

I have already decided that if I am going to get it done it will be done by a IAHRS surgeon and I will decide which one to choose by the consultations I have, the recommendations online and the photos. I want the best. I will get as many consultations as possible.

I have not just looked at Rooney's hair, I have of course seen other celebrities that have had it done and they all look great, posts on here show great results to. I mean I can't get much more proof than that, although if you throw any skepticism into things then these photos could have been faked, photoshopped, etc... Celebrities may be wearing concealers...... I don't know for certain, but I doubt that is the case. What more evidence do I need!!!??!!!?

I constantly here people saying, do your research, do your research....
The key thing I need to know is who to pick as a surgeon and what result I can expect. Is there some 900,000,000 word research book I need to read that I don't know about? I mean what else do I need to know, people make it sound like I need to do a years worth of research.

I am not so naive to go and pick any old surgeon off the street to wack some hair in my bald head.

Sorry to sound angry, I don't mean to be, I am just trying to understand what research people keep going on about? Am I missing something?

Its pretty simple. IAHRS Surgeon (TICK), research who is the best (STILL TO DO), understand how the process works (TICK), book it and plan my working life around it (STILL TO DO).

Please tell me what I am missing?

U do sound angry and a bit rude IMO. Sort your attitude out and I will spend some time over the weekend which will hopefully shed some light on the above and although no one has all the answers I will give you some school for thought.

Iv had four fue's in the last 4-5 years

Either way good luck in what u do

It shows that your forum “join date” is January 2012, I would say that you probably have A LOT more research to go before jumping into to having a hair transplant. Wayne Rooney is just one person who appears to have had a very good hair transplant, but you can not base your decision on a single outcome or on whether people on this forum think he is wearing concealer or not. Take your time and do not rush your research. You would also do best to stick with IAHRS surgeons to have your consultations and have as many as possible.

Sausage, you've a long long road ahead and it takes hours (and hours) of time to research this subject, none of which is to be taken lightly, which i'm sure and i hope you know this already.

With regards to Rooney, unless you have direct access to the man himself you can only decide yourself what may be right or wrong from the (educated and not so educated) posts given in the thread and the same goes for all other threads you're involved with!

Good luck matey, 57mph

Great post sausage.

Whatever people say (on the forum) about him wearing concealer true or not (we don't know fo'sure) the result looks great, what we have to remember is what he lacked before the ht and what he has now, it's a great advert for ht's but you still gota do the research etc, etc.

Go Rooney, go Rooneys hair follicles!

Cheers.

I am researching and researching, unfortunately on these threads I don't get much of a response to a lot of my questions so its pretty slow research at the moment. There are about 10 questions I would like some answers to, once I have those answers I can start making proper decisions.

I have been influenced by Rooney to get a HT and I posted the post above to get other peoples views. I just want to make sure I am not being mugged in thinking Rooney's hair looks great when it could actually be the concealer making it look good.

I don't know much about concealers but surely you would not use a concealer on a grade 1 shaved head? and surely you wouldn't have any concealer on whilst having a haircut? It seems stupid to even ask these questions as the answer is surely that he would not have concealer on in these photos but I just want to be certain....
