    Exclamation No 18 Year Old should get a Hair Transplant ..

    Hi Guys,

    Asked to write a recent article for The Telegraph on getting a hair transplant too young. There has been a great deal of media discussion surrounding the recent 18 year old who's father bought him a hair transplant for his 18th birthday which is complete and utter madness in my opinion. I was interviewed also on BBC 3 counties too about the young man a couple of weeks ago. Surgery is a last resort and getting a HT at the tender age of 18 only sets you up for a LONG road in my opinion.

    Let me know your thoughts - Do you also feel 18 years old is too young for a Hair Transplant ?

    If you need a HT at 18 your MPB is so aggressive that you will be a NW6 at 25 so HT would be a huge waste.

    I'm 19 now with what seems to be a maturing hairline for the moment.. there is a possibility that I could go Norwood 6 during my 40's-50's so would a hair transplant still be an option for me?

    A long road of money, failure, disappointment, depression and misery. I blame north Americas society's perception of what a man should look like for mine.
