    It also includes the photos which Nigam sent me from Toms case and also a load of older photos I took from my last HST.

    The photos in the 'Test' folder are not my best photos, I just wanted to show where i'm up to with recipient and to confirm what I already knew, that the current hair length is too long for any meaningful analysis.

    If you want details of the account then let me know.

    Oh and feel free to fly over and take the photos or meet me in London on 10th Sept.
    I'd love to come down, but that would cost me an arm and a leg.

    One question: Can you take photos of the recipient area BEFORE the HST procedure?

    Agreed that the less shots the better BUT clarity has to be good enough for analysis. I just looked at the test photo's you've shot and I'd love to see just a bit more clarity. If it can't be attained from this distance, then we'll just have to get the camera a bit closer and manage more photo's.

    Also the hair is a bit too long. The less overlap hairs have the better so I'm hoping you're willing to shave it down a bit.

    Cheers mate.

    Yea I agree on what you've said about those photos. I'm just playing around with those, plus wanted people to see my hairline and old linear scars in my donor, just so people know what we're working with as a whole.

    Hair will be same length as original photos. I'll probably shave it tomorrow. I prefer it a bit longer like I have now, but it's the only way to get proper shots.

    The only thing that concerns me about having the hair really short is the hairs can sometimes stick together almost, which can sometimes appear as a 1 hair, when infact it could quite easily be 2 hairs. Not much we can do about that though!

    The only thing you can do is to make sure that your skin is as 'dry' as possible before taking the photo's. You could try a skin cleaner product designed for oily skin and after washing just rub it with a towel as dry as possible. It also ensures better photo's since oil on skin causes more light reflections (this I also noticed while taking pictures of my own scalp so I did myself what I just suggested and that worked great).

    Perhaps an exfoliating cream before showering? Removes the top most layer of useless skin and showering will reduce sebum from the scalp for about 30 or so minutes?
