kevin 0 Report post Posted March 23, 2006 Hi folks, great site and i'm new to the webpage, I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice? basically i'm 23 years old and have been having slight hair-loss since I was 18/19, i suppose more significent at 21, It's at the stage where I am wanting to do something because it's really affecting my confidence alot... my hair is receding at the front and sometimes when i come out of the shower, it's got to the stage for the past few years i have wore a baseball hat more often that I should and tammy hats, i've started even wearing them around the house just cover up my balding front. the thing is sometimes I can hide it via hair-gel but i don't want to do this anymore but when i go out e.g pubs etc social ocassions and but basically it's a comb over and if it was very windy or rained, it would probably blow everywhere, it's got to a stage where i can't even apply for jobs it's depressing because I know the word of using hair-gel to make my hair look ok-ish before I go out and i just want to be able to go out and stop hiding my hair without wearing hats and caps and sweatbands... My hair is slightly receding at the front like a V-Shaped, When it grows longer it looks worse and so i'm trying to keep it shortish so it doesn't look as bad as it does when i have longer hair. ok i'm sorry for this long winded response but i was wondering what my best options are?? i live in scotland, i hear that UK isn't the most advanced place but I dunno what treatment I need, and i suppose this isn't much clearer.. also money shouldn't be a factor but it is, i've just returned from travelling and am skint but I do have an account of 10,000£ and am in process of selling my car for £2000.. I feel that if i receive a succesful treatment, that'll be worry free and be able to go for jobs I feel that I lack confidence to apply for at the present.. sorry for this being so long but can anyone tell me the process and is one treament just ok or do you have to go back for more? also does anyone have an opinion on Advanced Hair Studio or Rogers UK? Thanks again folks, i really would love some advice.. sorry this is so long..all th ebest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

spex 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2006 Kevin, AHS is a scam. I fell for their various techniques and wasted a great deal of money and time. The best initial approach is the big 3 to prevent further loss before embarking down the HT route. Dr Rogers is the best surgeon we have in the U.K. Regards Spex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
