saved from baldness, are you really who you say you are? And not actually Artistry Concepts himself back up to his usual tricks?
The reason I ask is because I have been researching this kind of treatment for the past few years and when I contacted Artistry Concepts I was told that I could not meet any past clients as they do not keep any records (wtf??? a company who does not keep past client records) and that ALL their past clients are really happy and have moved on from hairloss etc. and do not wish to meet any potential clients. I was also told that prior to having the procedure I'd have to sign a document saying that I would not be allowed to talk about or post any of my pictures on any public forum. So saved from baldness, if you are who you claim you are then how have you managed to post your picture up here and post such a glowing report?
If I do end up getting this treatment done then it's only going to be with a company once I have satisfied myself by having seen multiple past clients in person as well as clients who had the procedure done many years ago to see how it has held up. If any company refuses to let me meet past clients then to me that will ring alarm bells and indicate that they have something to hide. Pictures can be altered, posted to look like something else, however meeting someone in person and seeing their head cannot be faked.
AC is legit. I had my head done in mid summer 2011, and the result was awsome. I am totally satisfied with my result.
@morrison: I totally understand your concerns, but you have to understand that they can't disclose their clients' photos or contact information. I obviously don't want them to disclose my private information. I can sue them if they do that, and I am glad you brought it up that they keep my information private. When I got my done, the tech (Robert who did the work on my head), took a bunch of pictures of my new scalp. But since I didn't sign any papers to allow them to post my pics on the web or to show them to anybody, they legally can't show them to you.
And "saved from baldness" guy is real too because his hairline on the side is the same as mine. The middle frontal hairline of mine was originally like that of "saved from baldness" (round), but I asked Robert to add a slight widow peak to it as I did have a widow peak when I had a full head of hair. Keep in mind it's hard to ask AC to add a peak (or any other things) if your original hair didn't have them. They just simply will not do it because they consider that as extra and unatural work. They made it sound like they would do it but they will charge extra for it and they will not guarantee that it would look natural. They thought that it was unnatural and uneccessay work if you went beyond what you had. Weston looked to see if I did have a widow peak, and he was convinced that I had one because he saw a few hairs from the middle front tip of my crown.
If you or anyone in the Orange County, CA area, I can show you my head in person, but I am not going to post any pics on here unless you want to pay to see them as I have to take pictures, then ask for permision, plus putting AC water mark on photos to prevent other companies claim that they are theirs (this is what AC mostly concerns).
I'd tell you that it is an adventure to go through this because I had to flight all the way there to get it done and that because I want to make a difference in my life. I am still very happy with my head. I have so much more confidence now then before the procedure. I only wear a hat if I know I am going to be exposed to the sun for a while. Other than that I am not worried about other people would look at my bald head anymore.

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...
Obviously the hairline is not supposed to appear that of a 17 year old. It is adjusted for aging. A man in his mid 30's would look odd with the hairline of a 17 year old, no?
The only "negative"?
"You have such a full head of hair. Why do you keep it so short?" or "won't you please grow it out?"
Want to knock AC? Its simply your loss. I haven't been on here since I had it done. Why? It is no longer an issue in my life. Tonight I had a little too much time on my hands so decided to see what was going on here. AC gave me my life back. And that, as they say, is that.
Hey Jack, im thinking of doing either artistry concepts or gooslook inc in Minnesota. You say you had a good exerience with AC. Did you learn anything about goodlook while you were down there? Goodlook seems to be more professional but AC will str8 up tell You all about their needles and pigments whereas goodlook will not discuss either. Im definitely doing this so i gotta decide. Id love to hear more about AC bc im leaning that way as their process seems far more advanced. Thanks bro
Jack- I guess your non-response reveals you are either one of the 3- AC employees or you are now very angry about poor results. Either way, something stinks in Florida. The only good reviews I've read on them, are the posts they post themselves pretending to be happy clients. On one forum a poster was actually traced back to their lobby, and when confronted by the administrator, they claimed that their customer was so thrilled with his results that he couldn't wait to post his glowing recomendation from their own AC computer. WOW! Seriously? Do they think everyone is stupid? My thing is, both HIS and Good Look Ink are very adament about the potential client meeting former clients who have had the work done. That is confidence in a finished product. Good look ink owner told me that I needed to see the results in person--now I understand that this could also be a sales tactic knowing that if a desperate balding man comes all the way up there it will be that much harder to walk out the door without having anything done. I had it narrowed to the three of these companies, but AC is not an option anymore. They say they cannot produce clients for us to see b/c "they are so happy with their results that they are busing enjoying their new look." Also not one pic on their website shows an angle from behind the head revealing the crown area. I read one post stating that their own tech who has had the procedure has a big bald horshoe on back of his head. This same person also said that he flew all the way down to FLA and Mark, the owner, was very rude to him b/c he was early. Now I am not sure if this was just someone from a competitor company just bashing them, but I do know that when I called them I got NO help and the employee's attitude really turned me off. Not to mention that the man that answered the phone is the guy that Gale (President) said would be doing my procedure. I need a legit professional business. I am just a guy that wants this procedure to add density and restore hairline, and it is so hard to find anything out without "Attack of the Shills." I live in New Orleans and I will fly to Minnesota in May to visit GLI, b/c they seem to be the real deal. Anyway, I think it is really a shame that so many companies out there take advantage of people for thousands of dollars and sleep fine at night.
Anyone with a spare 5 minutes who fancies a laugh, check out a site that Artistry Concepts has put up bashing His Hair Clinic: hairlosstattootruth.com
It's hilarious and full of slanderous lies that I'm surprised that he has not been sued. He even goes on to say that when his account on this forum got banned it was not him posting but a competitor...lol.
All I can say is good luck if you let him anywhere near your head. He ain't coming within 100 miles of my head. I'll carry on researching, however it seems like a 2 horse race between Good Look Ink and His Hair clinic
