Hi everyone,<div></div><div>I have been posting sporadically on here for the past couple of months and decided to finally get the treatment booked in for the first week of March (earliest i could get time off work!) at the London clinic...</div><div></div><div>I am 27 and around a norwood 4-5 and i find it very hard to actually give any definite answer on my stage of hair loss because i haven't shaved my head for years before i started thinning!! I work in an office so i have booked off just over a week for the 2 treatments and hope to go back in with it shaved without it looks too inconspicuous lol. want to get a proper picture on of my head without any hair but my intention is to keep my hair (or whatever little of it is left!) until the day of the treatment then shave it all off so i will get some pictures on the day i shave it . I am almost as nervous about seeing my head shaved than the treatment itself! but it's something i really want to do. I know how everyone in the forum feels, i read a few inspirational posts and journals (JB, thfc, smarty, shane, ray) as well as some amazing pictures/ case studies and videos on the site. and i hope the least i can do here is try and help out with my full experience with hopefully alot of pictures of after treatment</div><div></div><div>I have been told it will be over 2 sessions but after being on the forums, i know this may result in further treatment depends on the outcome of this so i am not too worried. I haven't had an actual consultation nor have i met anybody with the treatment in the flesh but i have done my research (i have posted on almost every subject for discrepancies that i wasn't sure on) and tried to contribute to others in the past so i would like to think of myself as almost a perfectionist and somebody who is careful with decisions like this. I posted my pictures as a quote through the site and was given the details so i called and got everything booked in :) To say i am excited is an understatement! I didn't have as many questions when i called as i have been through so much information with everyone's shares experiences on the forum which i am eternal grateful for!</div><div></div><div>I am your typical guy , i love football, going out with mates and i my hairloss has slowly started since i was about 23 though especially in the past year where it's decided to become much more relentless and my top is starting to become visibly thin has destroyed my confidence. None of my mates are going bald and makes me look out of place. In the past few years, I have gone from being asked for ID to looking older than my age because of my thinning hair...it's made me feel slightly depressed so i can relate to alot of guys who are in the same situation, especially when it happens in your 20's or even earlier, it kicks the confidence right out of you.</div><div></div><div>I hope to post absolutely everything, and one thing i am looking forward to is planning my journey from Manchester to London on the train! I have heard tips from people in here that it is much cheaper if you buy in advance which will surely help me out too!</div><div></div><div>In terms of what i want - this is something i still am not sure on. I have fairly pale skin (but dark brown hair) so i know i can't go too dark but i want a sharp noticeable look and density in a similar fashion to Shane had... but with a different type of hairline. I will no doubt go through this with my practitioner at the time to see if he feels this would be alright but what i do know is i want my hair back!!! </div><div></div><div>Thanks for reading, i will keep you updated long my journey, and good luck to everybody else who are already in theirs</div><div></div><div>Once again, i just want to say a big thanks to everybody up to this point who have helped me out with answering my questions i had on the forum and all the journals everyone have done as without this forum, i would not of opted to get this treatment, and also a big thanks to Damien who has also helped answer some questions also</div><div></div><div>Peace out!</div><div>Gaz</div><div></div><div>(It's not the best way to see my hairloss but i have attached a picture of me below you can obviously see my high forehead! note it was taken about 6 months ago and i have had quite some excessive thinning on top since then)</div>
