What is your opinion of a hair transplant?

[Anonymous]

Should a person do it or not do it?

It's not about not having confidence. I am okay with a shaved head as well although I am told it makes me less attractive.

But, I also feel that I am young and should have hair. If this happened late in life then that would not have been an issue.

Also, it is not always convinient to shave ones head and as someone pointe out to me...it can take more effort than even styling your hair.

Plus hair/no-hair really changes your appearence...

Lastly, people get things such as braces for their teeth done all the time. And hair transplant is not even that...you are not adding something you never had but instead just fixing your look to your normal self.

What do you think? Should a guy get it done for his own satisfaction?

Oh, absolutely... I don't see anything wrong with it at all. I'm a transgirl so I rely wholly and entirely upon technology for my appearance (a la hormones, beta-blockers, and maybe surgeries someday). This idea that if you don't remain the way you are without touching your make-up at all you are 'cheating' somehow is really gross, and it's just really awful. It's one of the worst things to come out of the whole Cartesian substance dualism - you know, 'you only THINK you're a woman' - and the other natural philosophies of the enlightenment - 'it's not NATURAL to get a hair transplant!' - it's really harmful and awful and just. Don't believe it.

I'm sympathetic with transhumanism, even if in a kind of ironic way (because it's totally insane), and it's aim to increase human life exponentially through science and technology. As in, in charity poor people will have meals and in transhumanism poor people will have HOVER CRAFTS and there was a leftist transgirl I knew who used to joke that she was a transhumanist, saying, "I don't just want to pass as a girl, I want to pass THROUGH WALLS!" Anyway - we adopt transhumanism's ridiculous technocratic fanaticism as a joke-bulwark against the destructive and barbaric and oppressive Naturalism/Naturalist Humanism or the wider society.

Blah blah... Get a hair transplant, f*** Descartes.

I think, if a guy really wants it, then he should do it. Shaving a guy's whole head is not for everyone. I think people should do whatever they want, physically, to themselves to make them feel better and more satisfied with their appearance. Ultimately, it's your body and if you are more comfortable with hair rather than shaving it then you should do it. I don't think it's that big of a deal.

I would get one if I could afford it. My hair started thinning at 21, I'm now 24 and my hair line has receded considerably and a bald spot is starting to form on top of my head. I'm just to young to be bald. I feel like older women are more willing to overlook bald on older men, but women my own age and younger, which is what I'm attracted to, are not a fan of bald, especially on someone as young as me. I would just shave my head since young women are more accepting of shaved heads, but I don't have the head shape for a shaved head.

Google "Cabooki". It is a cheap alternative and works very well. I have lately been using it. It costs $40 for 3 month supply.
