    Lebron being blessed with a Kyrie Irving/Paul George hairline would've meant he hit a second genetics lottery. But god had to humble him a bit, like "i'mma make one of the greatest basketball players ever but...
    I wanna see how he deals with that George Jefferson at 25 just for the hell of it". 🤭

    17:40. Unfortunately telling this to black guys that care more about their hairline since they keep their hair super low (at least the majority of us) is gonna be tough. The majority of black guys that get a hair transplant, do it to get the hairline back at all costs. We rather have a hairline and use concealer than have a dense middle scalp back.

      Black guys should experiment with length more. I’m black and i keep some length to my hair. It actually disguises the thin areas completely. My Hairline is decent and I don’t have a big head so the fro just kinda shrinks along the natural line and hides the minor recession. Nappy hair has a lot of utility in that respect. Grow it 3 times longer than desired if you have 4c and let it shrink into place. Then shape it.

    • @dantan1249

      @Aristides Gonzalez it’s probably not stress if it’s your hairline. I would use minoxidil. My hair started thinning 7 years ago and it’s been stable since I started minoxidil 3 years ago. It sheds like crazy at first though. I actually get a dermatologist grade 7% minoxidil with .01% topical finasteride in it as well. Haven’t found topical finasteride anywhere else though. 45 bucks a month.

    Hi Dr. Gary. You make amazing and well explained content. I think you should definitely make a video on the difference between your clinic and clinics like hair of Istanbul (you don't have to use any names, you could just say foreign/cheaper clinics that use lots of donor hair in one operation). I'm 26, and although I haven't noticed any hair loss yet it's something I do think about and have researched. Your answer showed me why these foreign clinics aren't the answer, but plenty of people roughly my age don't realize that these clinics are exhausting your entire donor supply and will result in a very strange hair pattern later in life. You should talk about why a prospective patient should very strongly consider these clinics and why they aren't a great option for young men who are balding early.

      @KennyBucketz Рік тому +15

      @@johnblack4915 MJ shaved his head during an era way before social media, and in an era where balding wasn’t stigmatized nearly as much as it is today. Go watch the old TV shows, movies and sports, and men rocked receding hairlines and bald spots like it was nobody’s business. When MJ was losing his hair, he wasn’t getting flamed for it because it was seen as normal. These days, once LeBron was receding, the internet and people in general were flaming LeBron for his hair. It matters much more today and men are more self-conscious about it due to other men flaming them and women not being attracted to them. So to compare MJ to LeBron in this is not a good comparison. Also, maybe LeBron is holding onto his hair and MJ for rid of his because MJ has the head shape for it and LeBron doesn’t (this is actually a huge factor for many in deciding whether to shave it off or not). Also, maybe MJ didn’t try to hold onto it because back then (in the 80s), they didn’t have the same options we have today. Rogain wasn’t a thing for hair yet, finasteride wasn’t either and hair transplants weren’t nearly as good as they are today. Modern hair transplants weren’t starting to be done until the 90s. The first FUT procedure was in the 90s. MJ shaved his head in 1989 before any of these options. And we don’t know if he tried natural remedies to regrow his hair or stop the balding. People love to compare LeBron to Jordan to throw LeBron under the bus, especially with bs metrics like this. Your statement is probably the most ridiculous MJ LeBron comparison I’ve ever heard.

Personally I’ve never liked having hair and I’ve been shaving my head since I was 20 even though I have no hair loss. Apparently male pattern baldness comes down the mothers side of the family and my grandad had a full head of hair when he died aged 99 and didn’t really have a lot of grey hair just round the sides.
