In this video, I am showing you how I look like after shaving off my precious hair for my golden opportunity to regain my hairline using the stem cell hair restoration process. Let’s get on a ride and take a tour in my head after getting the treatment.

If you are asking me why I have to do this to myself, I only have one answer – I want the hairline I had when I was in my early twenties! The reason is plain and simple; I want my hairline back. No, I’m not bald yet or even close to it. Most people would say I don’t need any hair restoration technique BUT if you had the chance to do it, why not?

The procedure took me the whole day. I started on Monday morning and finished in the evening on the same day. It’s quite a very long procedure but it took us longer that day because I was not only a patient but I was also directing the filming of my procedure for a special episode of ScissorBoy TV, my Online TV Series for Hairstylists.

The results of stem cell hair restoration are pretty amazing. Outstandingly amazing. After just a couple of days the redness is going away and I can clearly see my hairline from my early twenties making a return.

The night of the procedure I was a little embarrassed to have my red and swollen head showing so I naturally wanted to cover up with a hat. Dr. Coen gave me a quick tutorial on how to properly put a hat on and take it off without disturbing my new follicle family.

At one point a friend from the hotel saw me wearing my hat and was surprised. She had never seen me wearing a hat and thought I was hiding a bad hair day and quickly started grabbing at my hat to yank it off. My body reacted like a ninja and caught her hand before it could touch my hat and disturb my new growing garden of hair which was feeling VERY sensitive.

In the past few days I have definitely felt a certain degree of self-consciousness about my appearance because I have this red line on my forehead where the stem cells were planted and I also have a big shaved patch of hair on the back of my scalp where the donor cells were taken from.

Thankfully, the redness is going away but that has left me with some crusting where the new hairline has been formed. It is advised not to remove it until it falls off naturally so I’ll just have to wait for 7-10 days until it’s gone. If I forcibly remove the crust, I might pull off the new growing hair.

As far as the stem cell hair loss treatment goes in the last couple of days, everything is doing great. The new hairline is really good. My hairline increased about 1/2 in the center and well over an inch in the receding parts – which is a very significant increase for me.

Today I went out to do some shopping and run some errands and I didn’t feel like I had to hide my head now like when I did immediately after the procedure.

Dealing with a receding hairline is a pain. Stay tuned as I share my experiences with the stem cell hair restoration process in the coming weeks.

The short answer… I’m having a Stem Cell Hair Loss Treatment because of wearing a pony tail and imperfect genes (or at least that’s what I’m telling myself).

For anyone who has known me, I’ve had a pony tail for the majority of my adult life. Some people said they loved my hair long, others have been trying to get to me cut it off completely. I myself never liked having a pony tail. It just kind of happened. For me it was easier to pull it back in a pony tail than deal with it being short and frizzy and out of control.

But 15 years of pulling your hair back into a tight pony tail is not good for your hairline. I wish someone told me this earlier! My forehead has been growing out of control and on the march to the back of my head. This is not the kind of progress I was looking forward to.

In November 2010 a hairstylist friend of mine (Dar from hairbydar.co.uk) introduced me to a Doctor that had developed a hair restoration technique which involved a process to take hair stem cells out of the back of your head and plant them in areas where you want to grow hair. Sounded good to me.

After meeting with the doctor and clients that have had the procedure I decided to have the procedure done on myself. Not only that, I decided to go one step further and also film and document it being done for a special episode of ScissorBoy TV (the online TV series for hairstylists that I started more than 2 years ago.)

This stem cell hair loss treatment was developed by Dr. Coen from Hair Science Institute. He had originally created this process to treat burn victims that had lost there hair and had not been able to cover their scared tissue with other forms of cosmetic surgery but was soon bombarded with men wanting to put hair back on their head.

Join me over the next several days and weeks as I give you a complete report of my experiences with this new procedure and how its solving my biggest worry of dealing with a receding hairline.

By the way… If you are thinking this is a hair transplant you are wrong. This is COMPLETELY different but I’ll explain all that in another video.
