Hair plugs or Hair club

irish_sd · Jan 17, 2008

Anybody here have any luck getting hair plugs or using a "hair system" like Hair Club for Men? I have shaved my head for years, I was curious if any of the new ways to get fake hair are any good now days

This guy at work named Paul has hair plugs. We call him "Paul Plugs." Think about it. Bad idea..

I don't have either one but may get hair TRANSPLANTS not hair plugs in the future. Do a quick search and you will find they take tissue from the back of your head, the area that is immune to dht, and transplant that into the balding areas. It's your natural hair and it will not fall out. Meaning, you can cut it, style it or do anything else you want to it.

The draw back to hair club is you are very limited in your activities, it's a life time committment, and from what I have read it can be expensive. Do some reading on hair transplants and you will be excited about it.

I know three people who have gone to a great surgeon here in NY for trnasplants and they look amazing. It's expensive, it requires multiple procedires over several years, but the end result is a natural recreated hairline. I can pass the name of the doc along if anyone's interested - he is consistently rated in the top 5 nationwide (Dr. Unger is #1 nd has been for over a decade, by the way).

I also know two people who have used MHN - you know the Sy Sperling company formerly known as Men's Hair Now. They both opted for the most expensive "system", and it does look pretty good. It is not 100% natural looking, but it is about 95% natural. The maintenance is insane, it is not very comfortable, and it is actually more expensive than surgery.

In my opinion, do the surgery - it's natural, permanent, and the recovery time is a breeze. It also happens to be more cost-effective over the long run.
