Completely forgot to mention SMP in this video! The barber actually said that SMP would be noticeable when the hair is this short. But it’s definitely an option for a number one 👌🏻
Nobody would see that skin fade and think 'oh, he had a transplant.' Except for those lads who have had a transplant themselves. It looks class. Congrats.
My guy your hair looks amazing from the the front and the back. The clinic you went tot did an amazing job. The trade off of a hair transplant is the donor area and it’s totally worth it.
The donor area looks perfectly good brother. I just had mine done 1 month ago, and I'm a little paranoid as well. But your donor area looks 9/10. And the front looks 10/10.
it honeslty looks good mate! Only someone who had a transplant themselves MIGHT look at the donor and think ''he's had a transplant'. I had mine done a while ago (still way behind you) and shaved my donor area fiarly soon after having 2500 grafts taken from there, and literally showed all my friedns (I was like 'I cut my own hair. No hairdressers open due to covid') and not one of them mentioned scararing or a hair transplant or anything. Just that my fade wasn't as good as a real barbers lol
still looks great. 1 year after my transplant I agree with you, I keep it longer, the scars are noticeable if I request a fade, but certainly was looking to cover the frontal area which had not hair at all. Thanks for the video, thought I was the only one.
I mean personally i wouldnt notice anything wrong with this unless you pointed it out. Looks great for 3,500 grafts. Getting mine done in November and bit gutted i couldn't get a skin fade anymore but after seeing this im feeling positive even if i went for a 0.5
Looking great mate! I started my own HT journey and documenting it too. I'm currently at day 10... dreading the shed phase and looking for tips on the first haircut, using fibers etc.
I am fan of your videos and your details in it. I have done my HT from elithair 10 days ago. Now fingers crossed. I hope i get as good results as yours.
Your videos are great mate, hair is looking spot on I'm going for the same frontal area and crown here in the UK in Feb if it looks as good as yours does I will he happy!
Your hair looks good, unless you mentioned it I doubt anyone would even notice you’ve had a transplant. I’m currently on day 5 after my transplant in Turkey. I had an excellent experience, Unless I was absolutely loaded I’d go back to Turkey.
When the barber pans the camera across the back of your head, it looks absolutely fine….. (especially in the bright light). Only those that know about transplants, and look really closely would even notice…. Great content and very helpful for those with transplants or thinking about getting one 👍🏻 👍🏻
If you like the sides short and blended with your beard, get a number 1 fade on the side and back - this way the donor area won't be visible and you can still enjoy the short hair! [that's what I do and the donor area is not visible at all, I had 2500 grafts]. Otherwise you could try 1.5 or 2 on the sides and back [depends on your choice tbh]
gotta be honest. i can barely see that you had a hair transplant. even with the skin fade at the back of ya head. fixing that declining hair line is the most important thing imo 9/10 from me
This haircut in general suits you. It looks really clean. Maybe try the same skin fade only changing the back to a taper fade. I think that would look dope if your concerned about the fue scars. Some people get smp into the donor scars. Would you ever consider something like that?
I just got a transplant in Turkey. Got 5100 grafts to cover basically the entire bonnet. I chose the clinic based on a questionnaire I developed after much reading. The plan was actually 4.100 grafts. The doctor himself did the harvesting and the incisions and then the team planted the grafts. I am freaking out about the number of grafts he collected, I think it is too many, but he says he always devises the plan not to overharvest and collects as many as possible. I hate fades but I have used very short hair at sides and back. I have to say the in the video, your scars seem pretty acceptable to me based on different cases I have seen. Thanks for sharing.
Which clinic in Turkey did you go to pal? How many days of surgery was that? If your whole head needed doing then 5100 grafts doesn’t sound too much. Got to accept that the back of your head won’t look as good as it did before. But it’s worth the trade.
@@HairlineConfessions I know, it does sound like too much. It’s been seven days and healing is looking good. The clinic is called First Ist Hair. It’s new. The procedure was done at the Academic hospital.
I had mine done in August and I did wonder about this. I was considering micro-pigmentation if it was too obvious, but having had a few skin fades now, I don't think it's too bad. Yours is not massively noticeable either mate. I think it's one of those things that when you know to look for it, you see it. But day-to-day, most people wouldn't clock it.
Looks great, can hardly tell the scars unless you know what to look for. I’m 48 had my ht a year gone November by the Hair Dr here in UK , I’m to old for skin fades and such 😅, in the process of growing it shoulder length and looks good so far 👌🏼
You look great mate. The pros have exceeded the cons. I personally don't see your donor that bad. You look nice with the new style. In the end you got hair on the top, why would you be concerned about a small white dots in the back of your head?😉😉
Dude, skin fade looks great! You are trippin if you think it’s off. Maybe a little suntan would help the back look less sparse. Your clinic did great to be honest.
It was literally never discussed. My beard is ginger actually so don’t think it would’ve been a good option. Some people use their neck hairs to refill the donor area. It’s called “fit farming” apparently, but obviously means more surgery.
Wondering if you could intentionally over harvest and leave no hairs? So then there are technically no bald spots. It’s just bald there and you always do a bald fade. Make sense? Or would it look terrible? I’m considering a transplant but am worried I may continue to lose hair and won’t have enough donor left and I don’t want to have to take meds.
I don’t think that would look good pal. Because you would still have hairs above or below the section they take from. You can only take so many grafts from your donor, so if you think you’ll need more surgeries in the future you need to go to a clinic with a reputation for excellent donor management.
Skin fade is the only style that conceals it. Normal haircut is very noticeable. I used to use blade 1 on the back & sides but the donor area shows up. Little annoying cos skin fades are not cheap where I'm from.
It looks good . Don’t worry bro . As someone else said , the average Joe will not notice it . I actually had a fut hairtransplant done in the past many years ago ( back then fue was just developing ) . 2 months ago I had a fur hairtransplant and also decided to let my huge fut scar on the back of my head filled up with grafts . All around had to be shaven off completely , and after two weeks I had to go to woro with a fut scar filled up with grafts by fue . Colleages and customers thought I had some brain surgery or check done 😂. No one thought about hair transplant , untill I told them . Now two months later my hair is covering the scar up , and I’m looking forward to have new hairs coming out upcoming months , so I can wear my hair shorter again in the back . But even before with my fut scar , I still was happy , cause o rather have a full head of hair and longer hair in the back to cover up a scar , then short hair in the back and a bald head in the front . But not later I guess I can wear also my hair in the back shorter again . Anyway brother what I wanted to say , wear your hair any way you like it , cause no average joe will think from the short hair that there was something done , and in the end go for the look that you think look best on you and make you feel most confident .
You concentrate too much on it, because it is in your mind. It is not that much visible. It just looks like a small thinning of hair on the back, but none is gonna give any attention to it.
Hi, would someone please reply. I am a girl and have had around 800 grafts removed at the back of my head (upper part). The doctor told me I would not see anything of it after it. But now 10 months later the back looks deffinitely more thin then before.. And my hair dont falls very nicely anymore there. I am sad about this because I thought it wont show. Do others have this experience too with such 'low' amount of grafts taken? Hope to hear.
Hey. This channel is just one person, so I’m not sure who you’re expecting to reply. I would suggest you post on a forum like this one: www.hairlossexperiences.com Which clinic did you go to? You should definitely contact the surgery team if you have any concerns. Do you have any pictures so I can see what you mean?
@@HairlineConfessions Hi, thanks for the link. Well I thought I put it out here since a lot of people will watch it I guess. And maybe have same experiences that they can share. I was in Europe at a clinic. And they say this would not be possible to see. But I know my old hair and the back was before a lot more full..
The front looks pretty good dude. Yeah you can see the back is a little over harvested but who gives a…. Nobody looks there anyway. Its The front matters.
Doesn’t look that noticeable unless it’s brought to one’s attention. Majority of people are so caught up in their own lives and stressors that 99% of people who aren’t close to you would never pay attention to it.
Completely forgot to mention SMP in this video! The barber actually said that SMP would be noticeable when the hair is this short. But it’s definitely an option for a number one 👌🏻
Hey, what about using tricopigmentation in the donor area in order to fake more density and hide skin spots ?
Barber said….? 😂😅
Huge advice.. never take a barbors advice
I dont see the issue. Would need a hi res photo enlarged
Nobody would see that skin fade and think 'oh, he had a transplant.' Except for those lads who have had a transplant themselves. It looks class. Congrats.

i wouldnt care about the back when the hairline looks like that! just seen your 6 month video before this, and what a transformation! congrats
Bro i literally can’t even see any scars on your donor area. Your hair looks fucking amazing
An important video for everyone to see. Thanks for sharing.
it honeslty looks good mate! Only someone who had a transplant themselves MIGHT look at the donor and think ''he's had a transplant'.

cant even see the scarring in your donor area mate, your hair looks great!
Looks brilliant, mate!
It’s a high 8 outta 10 mate. Great job and thank you for the update. Happy new year!
Looks great my brother even with the skin fade bro
The cut looks great. I don’t think most people would notice the donor area
If someone didnt know what they were looking for they would think it was natural
Looks good to me brother. Congratulations on your success
Looking forward to your next update 👊🏿
I mean personally i wouldnt notice anything wrong with this unless you pointed it out. Looks great for 3,500 grafts.

Nice one pal! Subscribed 👌🏻
Looks well man,
For anyone who wants to rock a skin fade after a transplant they should just get micro pigmentation to blend in the scaring.
Does anyone have before and after photos of skin fade with SMP
Still looks really good and no average person would know a thing
I am fan of your videos and your details in it. I have done my HT from elithair 10 days ago. Now fingers crossed. I hope i get as good results as yours.
Nice one mate! Keep the faith 👍🏻
It looks amazing, wouldn’t worry about the donor area at all no one will notice that
Your videos are great mate, hair is looking spot on I'm going for the same frontal area and crown here in the UK in Feb if it looks as good as yours does I will he happy!
Hope it goes well pal! 👌🏻

Possibly pal, yeah. Need to do more research on it. The barber reckons that it would be noticeable on a skin fade though 🤷🏻♂️
You can't tell at all looks like any other skin fade. I think you can see it because YOU know it's there and your looking for it

Can show what it looks like as it grows please? A picture a day of the donor? Thanks in advance
Will take a video every week for about 2 months and then post a video 👍🏻

I think the fade looks pretty good. I'm a barber. Keep in mind that mirrors and videos show more shadows and marks than live. So it looks great!
Looks good. That barber can fade too
Looks great, can hardly tell the scars unless you know what to look for. I’m 48 had my ht a year gone November by the Hair Dr here in UK , I’m to old for skin fades and such 😅, in the process of growing it shoulder length and looks good so far 👌🏼
Looks good mate. Im 2 weeks after procedure and my donor area looks so red and so fucked.. :D hopefully i will be able to grow my back there too.. dl
Can’t tell you had a transplant. Donor looks good
You look great mate. The pros have exceeded the cons. I personally don't see your donor that bad. You look nice with the new style. In the end you got hair on the top, why would you be concerned about a small white dots in the back of your head?😉😉
I feel a good scalp micro pigmentation would help blend those scars in with the bald fade.
Done that now and posted a new video. Check it out 👍🏻
Dude, skin fade looks great! You are trippin if you think it’s off. Maybe a little suntan would help the back look less sparse. Your clinic did great to be honest.
You should get a low fade or like you said a taper zero low would look clean
Think a well done FUT can be an option
Looks good even with the Skin fade tbh at the back ……i’m 5 or 6 days post FUE /DHI 4,500 grafts…. I’d be very happy with that outcome at the back 👌🏼
looks very good
You look like Max Kellerman
Looks sound my man 👌🏼
Do smp micro for your donor area its a good solution
It still looks good mate, I’m going for mine next week and if the back of mine looks like your’s I’d be ok with it.
Cheers man! I just over-analyse.
We have the same looking donor
did any ladies even notice the donor spots in your fade though?
Haha, I mean, it’s not often that people are stood behind me. But probably not.
Dude as a guy who’s had a transplant. I could barely even notice
in 10 days I dont think it willl show
I can’t see a problem with the doner area. It’s only if you point it out to someone they might be able to see
Looks good bro. It’s not really noticeable. BTW did you consider beard to crown? I can see you have a thick facial hairs.
It was literally never discussed. My beard is ginger actually so don’t think it would’ve been a good option. Some people use their neck hairs to refill the donor area. It’s called “fit farming” apparently, but obviously means more surgery.

Have u thought about SMP cause im thinking of doing that to hid the scares
Look at ‘Rolandas’ skin fade after 3500 grafts on TH-cam, you can’t even see any scarring but to fair he went to a higher end clinic.
I think you can get the scars on the donor area filled in with little dotted tattoos so it looks like hair is there
May I ask for that amount of grafts, how old are you
Skin fade is the only style that conceals it. Normal haircut is very noticeable. I used to use blade 1 on the back & sides but the donor area shows up. Little annoying cos skin fades are not cheap where I'm from.
What punch size did they used in the donor area ? And are you taking finasteride?
Get an smp i will do that myself
If you ask for a low/mid fade starting at a grade 0.5 it should help
Naw that’s a clean hair cut my guy. Not really noticeable unless someone got a hair transplant before. Looks good!
Hi, would you say you have thin/fine hair or thick hair?
Probably somewhere in the middle.

What about if you completely shaved it to the skin.. would it show?
Of course. The white dots are little scars.
I don’t think it look bad
It looks good , is nothing ! You can take still some grafts .
Did your doctor have to ok the finasteride then you can get it through simple online pharmacy ?
No, you don’t need a prescription; it’s very straightforward on the website.
Are you on finasteride ?
Yes pal: th-cam.com/video/_6xqBx596Oc/w-d-xo.html
What technique did your HT, DHI or Sapphire FUE perform with?
FUE. Just updated the title now! 👍🏻
when can you start drinking alcohol like 6-7 beers per night out?
At least 2 weeks pal, but I’d give it longer to be safe. I’m not a drinker myself so didn’t impact me.
I think you look younger with this hairstyle. And who cares about the back of your head, people who don’t know about fue won’t even notice it.
You concentrate too much on it, because it is in your mind. It is not that much visible. It just looks like a small thinning of hair on the back, but none is gonna give any attention to it.

How old are you dear sir?
32 now. Had just turned 31 when I had my surgery.
@@HairlineConfessions sorry what skin fade did you get ? Low,mid or high ?
@@rockerswak1610 Think the barber said it’s a mid fade. So obviously I could’ve done it lower and then the scars would’ve been more hidden, maybe.
I can’t tell at all
