39 and decided to make a start

[Don'tDoIt]

Michael, do NOT get a hair transplant. You are balding gracefully. Don't do something that you will regret. I wish I was in your shoes, with the ability to decide again.

You say that you won't mind a scar in the back. That's what I thought before my hair transplant. You know what? I sure felt differently about the scar AFTER the transplant. I hate it. You will hate that scar, too, since it permanently prevents you from being able to cut your hair short in back. And there is no guarantee that the grafts in front will look natural.

Bottom line? Don't do it. Consider yourself lucky that you don't have a scarred head. Don't make the mistake that I made. Best wishes with your decision.
