A good hair system works great. Should be considered before a transplant.

I'm still surprised how many people are under the impression that just anyone can walk into surgery and get a transplant. If you're anything beyond a Norwood 4, possibly a Norwood 5 with a very skilled surgeon and a generous amount of donor hair, a transplant is almost certainly not an option for you.

I also think (especially for younger people who really want that thick "youthful" look with a lower hairline), a transplant can't always do what hair systems can do. I've seen so many guys who have had transplants and, either due to shock loss, a crappy job or a need to spread donor hair over a wide area, end up with a head of very thin, sparse hair that you can still clearly see scalp through.
