Having HST procedure in a few weeks
Hi all.
I'm having my first HST in a few weeks and was wondering if you guys could give me some advice on how to get as good quality pictures as Gaz (gc83uk) got.
I want to document my procedure, as much for myself as anything else. I'm also willing to share these pictures if anyone wishes.
Also if the rest of the guys on this site have any particular angles or pictures they want me to take then let me know.
Regards

With, or without any help?
I mean, are you going to try taking pictures yourself without any help?

I'll have my girlfriend with me for the first 7 days to take pictures for me.
But after that I'll be on my own, I could get friends to take pictures but would rather not. haha

Cool. That’s great. Anyway, to take really good “close-up” photos or “macro-photos” – you (or your girlfriend) have to train this NOW – before having your HST procedure!
For example – what’s the ideal distance from your camera’s lens to your head (or any other object/thing) with your camera? Every camera works somewhat different, so is your camera the “ideal camera” for such photos? Just a hint: Today, a new but rather CHEAP (but good) digital camera, should be sufficient for making such photos as gc83uk did.
Furthermore, what are the ideal exposure/light conditions for your camera and which camera settings are ideal for taking such close-up/zoom-in photos?
And finally, you need “a plan” IN ADVANCE, what exactly you want to show viewers (or yourself) and in which way (uploaded full resolution photos with just links to these photos or photos for forum postings etc) you want to show viewers your photos. And so on and so on …

Keep in mind that if you want to demonstrate regrowth, you'll have to shave it down again at some point. I'm now at day 4, made pictures every day, no regrowth yet but I'm already getting at the point where the other hairs are starting to overlap the small holes where the grafts were extracted ...

When you have your procedure pay attention to petri dish to see how many singles, doubles and triples are there. You can ask him for breakdown of grafts that way you can calculate how many hairs you get per graft.
You can practise taking 'before' photos and post them here,

I have a 14 megapixel Sony Cybershot W320 at the moment. But I'd be more than willing to buy a new camera that would provide better photos if need be. I'll be shaving my head with no clip the weekend before the procedure, so I'll practise taking photos then. 534623 so you think 14 mega pixels is enough?
Arashi, is it safe to shave the donor down after 4 days? I guess I can ask doctor Gho when it is safe to shave down the donor, but I don't really mind having to shave it down as I quite like my hair short.
did, I'll try and pay as much attentions as I can to the petri dish and ask for a break down. As I am curious as to where the 3 hair follicles tend to go, whether they go in to the crown etc.
Thanks to everyone for their advice and I'll do my best to document my case with high quality photos.

I'm just documenting my own progress. Main reason is that if I DO have regrowth, I'll have the procedure again in 9 months, otherwise I'll wait.
I'm only at day 4 so regrowth can't be expected just yet. Furthermore what makes you think I'm interested in what you guess ? You're a total fruitcake, everybody knows that.

After 4 days you're allowed to touch it again, wash it etc, so shaving should be ok too.

I understand that a misfit geek like you is still virgin and has to watch porn to get his satisfaction. I hope my mum got you excited, you deserve some relaxation as well, everybody does.
