My hair loss experience was very serious to me simply because it didn't allow me to be who i am. I was always hiding behind my hat, trying not to be noticed. I must admit, i  do enjoy wearing a hat. Since my HT, i can count the number of times I have put a hat on this head.   The number:not many. Even if others don't notice the change in my appearance, it doesn't change the level of confidence  I have gained since having the procedure done. If you are at all troubled by hair loss and you have the means. I HIGHLY suggest to do your homework, and speak to as many docs as you can. Educate yourself and DO NOT BE AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS. Only bad question is one not asked.  Choose a doc who makes you feel comfortable and  answers ALL of your questions.
