Don't stop what you're doing, Jake. You may not quite understand how much it helps young people like me experiencing serious hair loss at a very young age, but your videos were the first hair system videos I've come across, and they might be the only thing that keeps me from feeling severely down all of the time due to my hair. Because of you I very well might be ordering my first hair system at the age of 18, and taking the leap of faith sooner rather than later. Because of that, I wanted to say thank you. You, Jake, may have saved me from many years of being miserable and discontent with myself. Never stop man, you deserve nothing less than to be as happy as you can be.
Being bald is more hassle than a hair system. Think about it you have to shave your head like every 2 days. Shave your head feels like self mutalation sometimes. In the winter times a bald dome is freezing.
Props to you for finding something that makes you happy and that you can take care of yourself and not have to pay someone else to do for you. Now, I couldn't handle the hair system, I wore one for about 2 years and for me personally it was a lot of maintenance and I figured that the amount of money I'd spend on hair systems in the long run would be about the same as a hair transplant. So I did get a hair transplant and I couldn't be happier. I was scared like everyone else but it really isn't as bad as you think. Also I did not and do not take finasteride or minoxodil. Don't let doctors lie to you and say you need it after a hair transplant because you don't. It's poison to your body. But my point is do what makes you happy and don't let other influence your decision. You look great and and the end of the day it's about what makes you happy.
Hi there, I desagree with you. If you have a hair transplant and you dont take finasteride, you'll lose your hair again, because the problem is in your scalp, so whatever you plant there will die...A hair transplant is the best solution if you don't care about take finasteride poison, but do not fool youself, If you don't want to take that poison, a hair transplant is not the way at all, es a temporary solution, because like I said, probabily you will lose your hair again :(
@@j0sinh0 a little correction, it’s the follicles that are sensitive to dht and not the scalp. So if most of the hair on his top is transplanted hair then he wouldn’t need to use finasteride or minioxidil. But i agree his natural hair would fall as those follicles are dht resistant. Goal of finasteride is to stop the your natural hair from falling.
Hello bro, I'm getting a hair system before a transplant next year. I have a few questions about that since you've been through it, if I can contact you in any way would appreciate if you can share it. Appreciate your reply.
@@j0sinh0 Completely incorrect. This is something some people don't understand or are deliberately not telling it correct. The problem is not in the scalp, but in the hair itself which is influenced by DHT. The hair on the back of your head (and in some ares on the sides) is resistant to DHT, so when that hair is transplanted, that hair will not fall out and will remain there for the rest of your life. The reason for taking finasteride or other drugs is to prevent your NATIVE hair to continue falling out. Otherwise it would look strange if you have patches of transplanted hair which remains in tact, and bald spots surrounding it. Without finasteride or other drugs, some people might need several hair transplants to compensate for the continued hair loss.
I always had the best hair. I lost most of my hair diffusely in less than 2 years but the front is mostly affected due to autoimmune disease scarring alopecia lichen planopilaris. Lost my leg hair also and I’m fighting to keep my eyebrows now. I’m on so many harsh medications(immunosupprassant, systemic steriods,accutan,steriods injections, topical steriods). My quality of life went down the drain. I don’t recognise myself anymore in the mirror. Are there partial hair systems that can be added/attached to existing remaining hair? my top is thin but not too thin for a full hair system. The mental damage is huge from this disease. I hope you’ll see this🙏🏻 Thank you! btw this hair system looks great on you
hey EL10, gosh man, i'd love to have a convo with you on the channel.. this is something i have a feeling ALOT of people are struggling with, but there's probably not a lot of folks talking about autoimmune-based alopacia. in short, there is partial systems.
@@JakeKent Thank you for replying! I wish I could. I'm too insecure because of it(hope you'' understand). I know it can help many people. I'm on facebook groups of lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia(what I have. its a type of lichen planopilaris) and there are many people(young and adult) suffering from this disease. Maybe when I'll get some of my confidence back with the partial hair system soon I'll talk to you on your channel.
How much do you pay per year on hair systems? And isn't it bad to have the adhesives/glues/tapes/hair system itself on your scalp year round even with cleaning/maintenance etc? Thanks!!
You wouldn't believe how many times I've said, wow my hair system hair is so much better than my bio hair ever was! It's so true, I think this should be among the first things guys consider doing!
Jake, great content, this type of information is very important for people like us. 1 question, for someone with a receding hairline, would you suggest getting a full hair system or should one look into something that only covers the front? I can still somewhat hide my hair loss, but when the time comes I want to be ready. Thanks.
Hey Jake, good video! But why not combine the two solutions? personally I plan to use the implants for my temporal recession and to rebuild an hairline, and use a hair piece for the rest
Hi Jake, did you ever consider Minoxidil? If yes what were your reasons for not using it? I am thinking of trying the minox and dermarolling method but I don’t like the idea of using a drug. Thanks
@@JakeKent Fair enough. To be honest I think I am going to go for a system. I have enough hair to get good results with minox but its the drug aspect that I'm not comfortable with
It's great that you got denied entry into Europe I suppose, otherwise you'd have had a transplant, but do you have any idea why they wouldn't let you into Europe? You don't need a visa and I'm just not sure how that could happen. i'm American but I've been living in Europe for almost 10 years and I don't know anyone who had that problem.
The exact problem is when I filled out my ticket info online, my autocorrect changed my name from Jacob to jake (Jacob is my legal name) therefore because it didn’t match, they wouldn’t allow me onboard
@@JakeKent Oh, that's quite a hassle, sorry to hear that, but at least you didn't end up getting a transplant. I had almost the same situation with tickets before but when I got to the airport they allowed me to pay to change the ticket. Unfortunately I had to do it for both flights and it was quite a hassle plus cost me about $60 I shouldn't have had to spend.
Awesome gives a good representation of your reasons. Yeah place in turkey quoted me the cost 4500 + Plane ticket 950 dollars. One thing that is great about a hair system is how simple it can be in terms of getting what you want right away. Only thing that worries me is shaving the top of my head, or placing it on my head every 2-3-4 weeks. From the looks of it ill need about 4 systems a year.
Hey jake!! Been watching your videos since some time now. I needed some advice from you. I am having hair loss but the situation is not really bad of now. It's like when my hair get wet then a little bit of scalp is visible. Now some of my friends asked me not to shave my head as they are certain of the fact that if a person is suffering from hair loss shaving will cause some of the hair not to regrow back, as they have seen that in some of their friends. So they asked me to trim them down with trimmer at setting 1. I did that. My ques now is should i trim down my hair every 5-6 days with a trimmer at setting 1? Is it safe? I'm sure you'll understand my dilemma and reply asap. Keep making the good content bro. Your videos are really informative. TIA.
We are all on our own journeys but in many respects we all go though the same stages until we decide on getting the hair system. It is the cheapest, least painful, and the quickest way To never care about hair loss again.I couldnt imagine life without it 15 years later. I wish I had decided on one at 22-23 rather than 24. started losing at 16-17..I...did rogaine for years.. I regrew a third of my hair using minoxidil mixed with retin A burned the hell out of my scalp-wasnt satisified wanted the bleached beach boy look spiked (that was the style back then) and passed out with the bleach on my scalp it looked like a scraped knee and lost everything I regrew from minoxidil/retin A...micropigmentation wasnt around back then..tried shaving head..it.accentuates balding..minoxidil also mainly helps maintain unless mixed with retin A..With minoxidil itself even combined with finasteride or avodart, maintenance is the goal, but you will never grow your hairline back to be worth it..youll grow more ear hair from dripping and hair on the crown .I had a boytoy with a terrible transplant..he used eye shadow and mascara To hide the scars..finally got him To get a hairpiece years later when I was still using Alfieri in Ft Laud on Commercial(would still use them) transplant is the worst unless scalp réduction and you need to stay on finasteride and use toppik even after thé best opérations...denied entry To Turkey..never had that experience..what a pain in the ass...i am assuming you needed a visa and didnt have it..Im sorry
Have you thought about a frontal hair transplant and then wear a system behind it? You would basically have an undetectable, perfect "full" head of hair
Yesterday i had the same thougth. Make a hair transplant on the front area '' hairline'' ( just like 500 grafts ). Then when hairsystem is placed we could throw those hairs backwards and '' hide '' the hairsystem hairline.
Good content jake, this style looks nice on you! People hate on hair systems but its almost as if you regain your confidence with a hair system! Cheers!
Hi Jake. Nice content. 👍 And nice hair style. Just slightly to dark. A little bit. I can see that you use a bit more shine for your hair. That looks more natural. Fine!
random question if i want to order a system myself u can order a base precut. but you need to send the width and length of certain areas on ur head. like one is where ur hair loss is the widest, and i can tell they mean the spot on top of ur head but my hair hasnt receded like that yet. also how would you go about cutting the hair on top of ur head, when the base thing does arive. i saw people draw like a line around the base and then cut it. but if you have alot of hair there how are you supposed to see it.
@@nailimaamoun1520 Well my comment was more a joke but usually just b/c a hair system costs a lot doesn't mean it's good. IN fact a lot of places like hair clubs charge well over a 1000 dollars for a piece you could get for 200 dollars or 300 dollars that is much much much better quality. 350 dollars is the VERY most one should spend on a hair system imo.
The only thing I feel holding me back right now is finding a place to do it. I live in Alabama and can't find anywhere closer than Atlanta that offers the service. After you get it done a couple times, can you order online and do the whole process yourself or do you still need to go in? I don't know how often I could make that drive.
Hey Jake, I really liked this video, I have a baldness on the crown, I am thinking either hair system or transplant. You really made me feel hair system is a good option if I am ready for some discipline that comes with it. You're right, it looks gr8. So I'll definately keep it as one of my options. Keep it up man.
The transplants are hella expensive. Also need to continue meds, density and styling is limited, scarring, need to do more in the future. Those are my reasons. I just got 2 systems for 370, gonna see about having it cut it now.
@@jdoe4983 true but I have seen many pple get a transplant but with gr8 results. And I heard if you maintain well enough, it's a life time deal provided you take care of the rest of the hair.
@@suraj7701 Yeah man some people do get great results. I just personally am really weary of finasteride, the effects are a little more common than demonstrated in the trials.
@@domokosgaal6357 ash is the opposite of warm. so an ash colour will have less red in it. I think Jake states the colour of his unit in this video of his : ua-cam.com/video/LbtZtOVw7u0/v-deo.html
Hey man, thanks for convincing me that this is a waste of money and time. I started balding at 18 and after trying every natural and chemical treatment I could find, by 22 I lost pretty much 90% of my hair. But also by that time I got used to basically being a skinhead. I adopted a style to go with it and that was that. Now I'm 30 and recently I found out how natural these hair systems look(The Americans TV show, it's pretty good) honestly I never bothered looking into them before. And for a while I entertained the idea of trying one of these out. But after watching a few of your videos, I came to the conclusion that shaving my shiny bald head with a clipper every other day is much cheaper and less time consuming. This is just my opinion, but you're a handsome dude and if you would let your beard grow 1-2 inches longer and shaved your head, you'd look badass and you'd be just as handsome, if not more handsome since it would be the real, natural you. The beard isn't absolutely necessary, but being bald it gives you that manly lumberjack look. Please don't misunderstand, I'm not judging you or men who choose to wear these, I'm a bald cunt myself who briefly considered buying one and I've been through all of those negative emotions and everything else that comes with going bald, obsessively studying the hairlines of random men on the street, temporarily losing my confidence and so on, so I understand. Anyway good luck to you man, I hope one day you'll make your peace with your scalp.
I’m happy for your acceptance of your baldness. Obviously shaving is cheaper and less time consuming. If those are your highest priorities, you’re making the right decision. However, everyone, including myself has a different set of priorities, and desired results. So while I respect yours, your metrics don’t really matter as much to me. I’m happy with where I’m at, and happy you’re happy where you’re at. ❤️❤️
short reason: when i filled out my plan ticket, my name got autofilled when i put in my address. it changed it from my legal name to "jake" and they didnt allow me in.
To much hassle having a hair system. Worrying if people will notice, when you meet a girl you eventually have to tell her, you have to spend time in the morning preparing it ..... Shave it all off and accept it and the women will come! Guys care more than women...
@Danny Ya I feel the same, and honestly, I dont think any guy personally likes being bald. I am mostly trying this just so I can feel better about my own appearance, not really for any girl.
@@tonygabashvili8357 I was kind of joking in a way. I think Bald Cafe is generally saying to be truly free with your insecurities you should shave it all off and it will become acceptable to you over time. People will see the real you and it will come across as yourself being genuine. He has a point but there are also lots of bald dudes who simply are disgusted with the way they look bald and have tried being bald for a long time but still hate it and hair system is the best option if done correctly imo unless you have very thick bio hair and just need minimal amounts of grafts then I can see a hair transplant being the best option IF you can or be willing to take finasteride for the rest of your life. So in the end hair system is probably the best overall choice but unfortunately society and it's stigma isn't ready to accept that for the male population. I try to look at as if we are living in the future and ahead of the game b/c eventually it will become more acceptable imo and already has to a certain extent.
@@toddk4115 I don't see why someone would fear the stigma over wearing a hairpiece unless it looked really bad. If it looks good though no one will even question whether your hair is real or not, either way I'd be happy to tell them it was fake if I thought it looked good. Our hair has no other function other than to make us look aesthetic, we can't even feel hair there's no nerves. It's just dead skin cells, we might as well wear someone else's dead skin cells if it adds to our aesthetic, it's completely rational

I adopted a style to go with it and that was that.
Now I'm 30 and recently I found out how natural these hair systems look(The Americans TV show, it's pretty good) honestly I never bothered looking into them before. And for a while I entertained the idea of trying one of these out. But after watching a few of your videos, I came to the conclusion that shaving my shiny bald head with a clipper every other day is much cheaper and less time consuming.
This is just my opinion, but you're a handsome dude and if you would let your beard grow 1-2 inches longer and shaved your head, you'd look badass and you'd be just as handsome, if not more handsome since it would be the real, natural you. The beard isn't absolutely necessary, but being bald it gives you that manly lumberjack look.
Please don't misunderstand, I'm not judging you or men who choose to wear these, I'm a bald cunt myself who briefly considered buying one and I've been through all of those negative emotions and everything else that comes with going bald, obsessively studying the hairlines of random men on the street, temporarily losing my confidence and so on, so I understand.
Anyway good luck to you man, I hope one day you'll make your peace with your scalp.
I’m happy for your acceptance of your baldness. Obviously shaving is cheaper and less time consuming. If those are your highest priorities, you’re making the right decision.
However, everyone, including myself has a different set of priorities, and desired results. So while I respect yours, your metrics don’t really matter as much to me.
I’m happy with where I’m at, and happy you’re happy where you’re at. ❤️❤️
go back to the other hairstyle it looked better . no hate though big fan
I think both look great
I don’t understand why you were denied entry to Europe.
short reason: when i filled out my plan ticket, my name got autofilled when i put in my address. it changed it from my legal name to "jake" and they didnt allow me in.
@@JakeKent Thanks for explaining it.
I remember you saying your step brother was teasing you before about your hair loss. Oh the irony....
Haha. Irony indeed.
i wish i do transplant but i can't afford much money
Tiago stylist in Miami is the best in hair sistem
Some need to be on drugs if you get a HT, some dont thats what sucks.
To much hassle having a hair system. Worrying if people will notice, when you meet a girl you eventually have to tell her, you have to spend time in the morning preparing it ..... Shave it all off and accept it and the women will come! Guys care more than women...
@Danny Ya I feel the same, and honestly, I dont think any guy personally likes being bald. I am mostly trying this just so I can feel better about my own appearance, not really for any girl.
Jake, I sent you a friend request on FB. Since the media is ignoring Louisiana and the devastation from the hurricane. Stay safe and be well!
The one 'dislike' is from a Bald Cafe follower.
I've actually seen bald cafe say positive things about hairpieces though
@@tonygabashvili8357 I was kind of joking in a way. I think Bald Cafe is generally saying to be truly free with your insecurities you should shave it all off and it will become acceptable to you over time. People will see the real you and it will come across as yourself being genuine. He has a point but there are also lots of bald dudes who simply are disgusted with the way they look bald and have tried being bald for a long time but still hate it and hair system is the best option if done correctly imo unless you have very thick bio hair and just need minimal amounts of grafts then I can see a hair transplant being the best option IF you can or be willing to take finasteride for the rest of your life. So in the end hair system is probably the best overall choice but unfortunately society and it's stigma isn't ready to accept that for the male population. I try to look at as if we are living in the future and ahead of the game b/c eventually it will become more acceptable imo and already has to a certain extent.
@@toddk4115 I don't see why someone would fear the stigma over wearing a hairpiece unless it looked really bad. If it looks good though no one will even question whether your hair is real or not, either way I'd be happy to tell them it was fake if I thought it looked good.
Our hair has no other function other than to make us look aesthetic, we can't even feel hair there's no nerves. It's just dead skin cells, we might as well wear someone else's dead skin cells if it adds to our aesthetic, it's completely rational
haha this comment made me laugh. anyways, i think baldcafe is doing great work. we are both working to make men the best version of ourselves.
So you rather have this fake hair that looks terrible on you it doesn’t even look realistic
At least he can change his hair. But unfortunately your stuck with that face.
Hey, bible bitch, don’t you have a cult meeting you are late for?
Well his hair system is fine but he might need to adjust his hairstyle to suit his age. But hey who cares, at the end if he likes it.
@@midnightdragon8812 You got it😄
