Hey brother, you look perfect and great!!

In a way, I envy you. (no disrespect)

I cut my own hair weekly to save money and to have my hair look the way exactly I want but it is a tiresome chore nevertheless.

Take care, brother

I wouldn't have a problem with being bald if I had my eyebrows. Not having my eyebrows sucks. People thought I had cancer and I'm thankful that it was only cosmetic.

hair is overated. Sometimes it is better if you just shave it off.

Between golf and me just loving being outside I make sure to get plenty of sun. I need to make sure I put sunscreen on though. I went down Ft Lauderdale last week and I got pretty burnt.

Pre haircut-still a little spotty.


I think this thread is basically finished. Thanks to everyone who has been supportive through this whole thing. Only thing that really needs to grow now is my eyebrows and eyelashes. My hair is coming in pretty strong right now. I have been getting a bald fade for now until my sides grow in completely but the pictures speak for themselves. What a ride it has been!

Hey brother, while it's a good news that the hardest part of your fight is over, don't let this thread be finished.

Bro a shaved pubic area and shaved balls result in way more blowjobs. Now you don't have to trim any more.

Haha always enjoy your posts. I'll still update the misc on my lifting and physique but I think at this point my hair journey is coming to a close. Thanks for the kind words and your awesome view on life. Positivity is the way.

I may try it. Nothing to lose and reading about it seems like it does work somewhat well.

This is one thing I've never had an issue and wouldn't care if it ever came fully back.

It's been almost 6 months since my last update. Hair is coming in great and the spots are filling in more and more. I think I may keep it short, I let it grow out and it looked alright but I had almost a poof thing going on which looked terrible. Exhibit A I look like an idiot



Here's the updated growth pics


back and sides filling in finally

eyebrows finally showing some signs of regrowth. slowly but surely

honestly the doctor may say that everything I did was bull**** but I truly believe it was my change of diet and lifestyle. I started eating healthier, cut out gluten and ate more probiotics rich foods. Your gut regulates your immune system. I also started mega dosing vitamin d3 and k2

holy **** this is a wild ride balding to bald to hairy

maybe ask your doc about oral minoxidil, read up on potential sides and maybe that can get your growth going even faster (especially would help out the eyebrows and eyelashes i bet)

I actually bought some topical minoxidil and I don't know how well it's working. Eyebrows in general can take awhile to grow back naturally to begin with. One thing i didn't miss and that is back is the under the shaft hairs.

k2 just helps the d3 getting transported in the body and not calcify. Did you get your levels checked at all and any progress?

Well then, other than my eyebrows and eyelashes I'm basically back to my usual hairstyle. Still a little thin on the sides and front but no spots besides on the back of my head.

Crazy the journey I've been on. It's weird how something like losing your hair can really make you evaluate what makes you "you". I know I looked decent bald, but bald+no eyebrows really was hurting the self confidence. Only now have I really gotten my self confidence back. To be honest while I went on some dates over the past 2 years I never really opened myself up to get serious with anybody. Now with covid it's harder to meet people but I'm ready to get back out there. I hope my story inspires some people and they can look at what I went through and realize that sometimes what seems like the worst thing to happen to you is actually a blessing in disguise.

Still wish my eyebrows would be back fully but there's no reason to stress about it.

Yeah fortunately it wasn't cancer. Just a cosmetic disease. Although it did allow me to help heal my IBS by discovering things about autoimmune diseases.

Yes absolutely. Everything gets in your eyes. I especially notice it whenever I start sweating. There was no barrier to prevent the sweat from getting in my eyes.

good job brah. You lookin good anyways. Sorry bout the hair thing, but the modern day consensus is people paying heaps of money to permanently get rid of all that hair. You look more like a motivational speaker/actor/business man now, vs. Before you looked like a stay home tendie neet twitch streamer. Your hair gone has been a blessing for you aesthetically . Just keep being cheerful and stay fit and you'll be sweet, better than 90% of other dudes srs
