I actually spent a good sum on a haircut!

After 8.5 months of growing out my new hair and cutting it myself sporadically, plus catching grief from my girlfriend about my lack of style…I finally went to a stylist. To be honest with everyone, this was the first time I have ever gone to a stylist, so paying $40 plus tip was an interesting experience. I have never had my hair washed by anyone as an adult and I kind of enjoyed that especially with the super cute girl hanging over me washing my hair.

The stylist said I have really nice hair. Never thought I would hear that again and also didn’t mention my HT and he never said a word. Before cutting it, he spiked it up and said it was a great Johnny Bravo look—having my hair back is awesome!

So, I got an all shears cut (vs. clippers) and a style that is super easy to maintain. I bought some forming cream to hold my new doo. And I must say I really like it. No more combing to the side for me. Messy and spiked from now on!!

I hope you liked the pics--again, I just got out of the pool, spike it real quick and then headed out (this is the result). I will take more at my nine month mark so you can see some of my stylish hair. And if the sun ever decides to make its presence here in Chicago, my hair should also lighten up.

Fun times!!!!!!!

Wooooo-hooooooooo!!
Yeeeee-haaaaaaaa!!
etc

Looking good Eman! Really pleased for you.

Not so long ago, being 4.5 months behind you felt like an eternity. Now I feel like I'm catching you up bro!

Looks great Eman, congrats you deserve it. It's amazing to think your whole front third has been re-created with a HT.

Looking good E-money! You deserve it buddy!!!!!!

Eman looks fantastic! Well done!

Looks pretty good eman......if i were you i would grow that baby out as long as you can, i think that would look great. crazy to think u have another 6 months of thickening too.

WOOOOOW!!!! That is one helluva follicular jungle

Brilliant mate

You deserve it! Congratulations man! I'm very very happy for u.

Who's this young hairy guy and what did he do with Eman?

Seriously, you're hair's looking better and better all the time, Eman. Going to the stylist seems like quite an adventure and I bet you feel really buzzed... in more ways than one.

your hair is looking really good eman. but, honestly I thought the way you did it here is absolutely killer:

I'd kill to have that look. Looks much more spikey/messy in this shot, to me anyway... Rub your grubby paws through it, loooob it up w/ some hair spray, & your done. Either way, absolutely MoptasculA'.

Thanks for all the comments!!!

It has been awesome to begin styling it--going to the stylist was fun and interesting to say the least.

Having it super long and spikey makes it hard to get by in the professional world. So, cutting it short for summer and doing a little spike/mohawk is super fun. It is flat in the pics, but I am able to really spike it. Pics in the next couple of weeks should truly show it.

The hair is become more mature and more manageable by day. I keep getting comments from friends who cannot believe what they are seeing.

Thanks again guys and I will continue to play with the styles.

Eman, nice.. i m sure it is a great feeling to be styling your hair again. Really happy that HT turned out very well for you.

Awesome EMan. Simply awesome

.....ok so I think I speak for all of us here on this forum that these results are what we all dream of having....simply awesome Eman, congrats man.

Thanks guys!!! I will have more and hopefully better pics next week for my nine months.

Looks great! Congrats Eman! Like the spiked hair messy look! Hope to be able to do the same in 8-12 months!

You look great E! but you already knew that

Eman,

You've come a long way since our few conversations on the phone when you were deciding on the pros and cons of moving ahead with surgery. And now look at you! A man with no trace of balding.

Congratulations buddy! You deserve the best.
