Hey Mep, I sent you some before and after pics and another separate email with a bit of info. I hope the pics help you, and if you have any other questions, or just info to share, just give me a holler.

College11..just checked my e-mail but did not see anything..did you send the pics to mep0812@yahoo.com? I did check my spam folder but still nothing..must be a problem somewhere..anyway, thanks for trying..hope it turns out well..

[jholcollege11]

Hey Mep, no I sent them to the email u emailed me from- your first name and part of your last &1970@yahoo.com. I'll send em to the me email now

[mep0812]

College11..I did receive your pics and must say that it looks really good! Much better than mine..although your before pic shows that you have more hair than i do so I am sure that makes the procedure look a little better. I am very impressed..one question I have for you is this, did they do any kind of scalp shading before or after they do the hair follicle dot? Thanks again for sending the pics..I would be very happy with your results.

Thanks Mep I appreciate it bro. I think hair helps in the 3d regard, and adds some texture, but honestly the smp base is much more noticable than any hair I have. You dont need a lot of hair to have this done. No they dont do scalp shading. The scalp shading technique is a dead one that was replaced by HIS's MHT method. HIS looks like theirs has some shading in between replicated follicles, but they claim that they dont shade, so maybe just an illusion.

Quite hard to believe

I am not sure why I even feel the need to respond to your attacks when I bent over backwards from day one to try and help you in your decision as to whether to have a scalp tattoo procedure performed and if so where. I gave you every piece of personal information that one can give. I provided you with my facebook address as well as my e-mail. You immediately dismissed my facebook page as fraudulent though I highly doubt that you ever actually looked at it.

I have always understood that emotions run high when dealing with hair loss and "solutions". I have never in all the time that I have spent on this forum been attacked ad hominem without cessation over the course of so many months. I am hard pressed to understand how the moderators of this forum allow you to remain and to continue to lash out at everybody. I have always felt that we hair loss sufferers are in the same boat and I have always wished only the best to members of this fraternity of sorts.

Your baseless and uncalled for attacks on me demonstrate only how unwell you truly are. You still believe that I am an invented personage. Ask yourself why you believe this. Is it possible that you reached out to AC with great initial enthusiasm only to become enraged after not hearing what you wanted to hear? I have seen your early posts in which you showed interest in AC. Such behavior is both puerile and petty. I told you that I had my procedure done at AC and you immediately think me and the company one and the same i.e. you conflate two entirely separate entities.

That you characterize me as someone of little to no education is both risible and indicative of your never having actually gone to my facebook page where you would have seen where I attended university and been able, furthermore, to see dozens of facebook friends of mine who attended the same university. You would have been able to see photographs of me from significant life events from the time I was an infant until today.

Ask yourself one more thing; Have I ever attacked or even said an unkind word about HIS, GLI, or anyone else providing this sort of procedure. I have not once done so. I have been absolutely open, honest, and forthright with you. You respond with lies, baseless attacks, and even threats of violence.

From the very start even after you attacked me for being a "shill" I tried to be understanding and helpful. Enjoy your life of conspiracy theories and schizophrenia. I would ask you to desist from your attacks but by now I know you too well.

Jack21 is a shill for AC, he is one of many screennames that Mark and Gale of artistry concepts use. Then when you call these AC screen names out they always say the same thing- "you need psychiatric help" and they spout some quote from their favorite philosoher. AC is a hillbilly redneck tattoo shop with two very simple minded people running it and they will stop nothing to make sure they have completely slandered and bashed all competitors. If you want to talk to a real person who has had this done with a real provider and not AC's tattoo shop/house, then email me and we can even talk on the phone if you want and I'll give u every bit of info u want about my experience. Now before I get attacked by 50 screen names from a trailorpark in Florida, yes I did use another screen name, but at least it helped me discover that this thread consists of mostly AC shills, and one former HIS shill, Morrison. Unfortunately if you are an actual guy who is interested in having this done, this is not the thread to learn about it. You have to consult with the providers in person or over phone. You will find nothing here but shills like Jackoff21 or cyber bitches like "25 going on Heart Attack" who will probably respond to this within minutes lol.

Come on man

Jack21, take it easy there buddy, wow! We dont have to talk to each other, and we can just leave it at that. I think it is clear why I still come to this thread and it is not to argue with you. I dont really care who you are, or who you are not, b/c at the end of the day I chose I great place that gave me excellent results- so your identity, your projection of your own personal issues onto me, your weird "hopeless devotion" to AC, none of that matters. What matters is that I found a great solution. I will say however, that I do find it quite odd that you seem to get most defensive when I insult AC. Kinda sketchy, just putting it out there. Im willing to provide pics and info to people interested in having this done.

Nothing sketchy
Read Jack's story
He foudn happiness with AC , what's the big deal

[jholcollege11]

Its all good Dave

There's no big deal my man. Im not trying to argue with Jack. I even left this forum and he called me out a couple weeks ago, demanding why I had said some things about AC over a two months ago. Now he wants to play the victim again, and thats fine, I have no problem with him or AC- Ac just arent the type of people I would trust to do a procedure like this with. If he is happy with his results, then so am I and I wish Jack nothing but the best! Peace!

Ok attaching my before pic. Scars you see is from my removal of old plugs done in the late 80's this pic was taken like 12-14 months ago

Dben153662,
I agree; they are desperate predators and criminals. When I was 25yo, I had a consultation for HT with the Bosley medical group in Beverly Hills, CA. The minute the guy told me that the doctors would remove a strip of the back of my head for donor hair, I was totally and completely opposing to that. I am now 35yo, but every year since then I still get a couple of letters from them trying to get me to do the HT procedure at a cheaper price. Me too, I had H2MC procedure from AC, and I am happy with it.

It's not 100% as natural as the real hair I would want, but it's very believable. It's beyond better looking than a shaved head I used to have with a white bald area in the frontal region. To keep it believable, I got to military cut it (not blading) every 3 days. This might be a downside for those who are not used to this.

I personally believe that eventually the ink will fade whether you have scars or not (with scar, it will fade faster). So, choosing a company that knows what it does and that uses quality ink is very important as this will take longer time for touchup. I bet in 10years this procedure will be cheaper as more qualified companies will offer this technique. That means I don't have to travel all the way to Florida for a touchup.

To avoid fast fading, no excessive sun exposure is allowed. Dry the area by dapping instead of rubbing it. Massage the area when there is an itch instead of a normal scratching because more skin peeling means faster fading. This sounds like a direction, but this is what I have been doing. I always bring a hat just in case i need it for going out to the sunlight longer than 15mins.

lol, who or what company is going to want to claim them pictures as their own??? 95% of them look atrocious

Anyone stupid enough to go by what a website or nameless forum poster says about the treatment at Artistryconcepts (or any other company for that matter) needs their head examining. Wake up people, if what they do is so great and they have hundreds of so called satisfied clients, then why are they not willing to put anyone in touch with even one of them??? I don't mean talking to 'someone' who claims to be a 'really happy' client, but actually seeing their work with your own eyes on people who have had the treatment done. And not just done recently, but say clients who also had the procedure done a few years ago.

Any genuine company with nothing to hide will be falling over itself to put potential clients in touch with past clients. Well that is unless they have something to hide...

@Morbid(ris)son:

I have read all your posts. Your a bitter person, and I know what you are after and your reasons to be here already. But my posts are not for you. So, shut your filthy mouth.

[jholcollege11]

Im right there with ya Matrix, I hope this thing becomes available in every state so that these touch ups or enhancements will not be very expensive. Glad to Hear Artistry Concepts worked out well for you man! Despite my prior posts, I believe that the four top providers in US do good work, but just have a different style for finished result (although they'll probably all do whatever the client wants them to for most part). I feel like whether a person went with HIS, NHI, GLI, or AC- it doesnt matter. We all chose the same solution- head tattooing LOL. The providers can slap whatever name they want on it, but the slight differences in their process are pretty insignificant. If someone tells you that one provider is far better than the other three, they are probably selling something Im just not that naive to believe such a thing
