    dude you actually looked really good with the stubble after you shaved it. I'm glad to see it can look so natural even if you do decide to trim it short, as that's one of the things that's been worrying me the most.

      Men who can't grow a beard have to shave more often because our facial hair is patchy, thin, uneven, etc. And it grows just as fast as on a hairy guy.

    So many bits of this video resonated with me. I have a full beard that I grew without a transplant, but dear lord it was a labour of love.
    Like you, i was a late bloomer, and it took pretty much until my early 30s before i could grow any halfway decent facial hair. Even then, it grew in patches, all at different rates, and i had to keep trimming back to even out the length, etc. It took 2 years for me to get to your 6 month stage. 7 years later, i have a respectable beard that gets compliments but every day i look in the mirror and see the thin areas and uneven sections. It takes a lot of effort to remind myself that nobody else sees that.
    Good on you for seeing it through, and if i walked past you in the street, I'd never suspect for a second it was a transplant. Do what makes you happy and bugger whatever anyone else thinks!

    These decisions, you may regret and then a few weeks later, be glad, basically your mood can change day to day, like different styles, or completely shaved. But you now have the option to make these choices. You are still you, a good honest hard worker, which is why we all enjoy watching your channel, and I can’t believe you haven’t hit 100k subscribers ages ago as you upload regularly, and you (and also Adam), are always entertaining to watch, but you also have some good serious topics to bring up about the industry. Anyone reading who’s not subscribed, do it. Nick really puts in the work to make good RUclips content, I can honestly say he deserves to do well.

    Honestly I've been waiting for this video, I'm a few years older than you, slightly shorter than you and people still think I'm 18 on site even though I've been in the industry near on 20 years.
    It's annoying as anything and the majority of it is down to basically having hardly any facial hair growth I just look the same as I did when I was 16.
    Looks brilliant and I'm definitely going to ask them/ a place nearer about having mine done.

  • @ckemimire3657
    @ckemimire3657 Год назад +2

    For anyone that is tempted to do this pls READ. Before you get this procedure done make sure you try and watch photos of how your beard pattern should look and draw it on your face multiple times before the surgery as the guy in the video has the line way too low on the cheek and the sideburns way thinner. Your sideburns should continue as your hair pattern not thiner or thicker. Also the moustache has corners that usually not super sharp and the cheek line should be on the corner of the moustache or higher but never lower. The guy in the video should’ve filled up the moustache so it went higher and looked thicker and increased the cheek line. Also try if you want a beard very bad but are not gonna get it done for the next 5-6 months I suggest trying minoxidil it’s cheap and will most likely give you a full beard and if it doesn’t it’s worth trying as you can find out if you can have a beard with 100 bucks or pay thousands.

      I had to shave this morning as my beard grows nicely all over, except the bit just below where your jaw goes upwards... At those points on either side, it grows super fast and just looks weird..
      And because it grows unnaturally fast compared to the rest of it, it looks like I've done it intentionally.. Trust me, I did not..
      It looks like I tried to grow a Fu Manchu Mustache but on my jaw....

    I struggled to get a beard. A vague bit of stubble throughout my 20s and when I hit thirty I could just about have some sideburns. 30 years later i have a reasonable beard (although it’s now grey). Not sure I’d have been brave enough to do what you did nick but FairPlay. I’m sure as you get older it will only get better. Must admit I still love the sideburn which I’ve now had since about the year 2001.

    Totally with you there on the daily beard touching! Ha, I'm just the same. Always had a beard since I could grow one, admittedly that wasn't until I was like 25, but always wanted to shave it off like this, I just know I'd regret it.
    This video confirms that theory for me. Ha.
    Beard looks fine to me.
    Plus I didn't know you had had this treatment done. So that's something, I guess. Cya

    Good job, I grew my beard out for a little while and interacted with let's say 50 people face to face a day and felt self conscious especially through the first two months but you've done it for nearly 100k subscribers and however many more watch your videos. Good job.
    This isn't a critisicm but do you find one cheek line (your left) is a bit lower then the other side? Maybe it's just the camera angles, beard colour or face shape - just seems to be a bit lower on one side.

  • @mikehealy74
    @mikehealy74 Год назад +2

    I guess I'm lucky in some ways, but not others - I've always had a 5 o'clock shadow by about bloody 11am, and my beard is now almost at my navel - however my head hair decided to fuck off a couple of years ago (hence growing the beard - i looked odd with no hair at all on my head or face!!). I can't say that I, even if it were free would bother with a head hair transplant - that's just not me. However, if it has made you happier, then good for you - and I'm glad that the hard work of sparking & youtubing has allowed you to do so. To quote a song by a band I like "Fuck the Haters."

    Hello!
    I just had my beard transplant 10 days ago and really excited to see how it will turn out, really hope I get the density I am after
    Your beard transplant looks awesome and the results are great!!
    After 10 days of my transplant the clinic I went to in Turkey told me I should start on Finasteride as well and use it for 8-12 months but I’m really worried about the side effects so I really have no idea if I should use it or not.. I did the beard transplant/PRP/stem cell therapy so I’m wondering do I need to add in those pills also, it’s all very scary not knowing how it will grow out to be and time seems to be moving very slow counting the days to get proper results 😅

    In beard groups, clubs, and contests, we say that if you paid all that money to have a beard transplant the one thing you *_don't_* do is shave it off! Need to do like the rest of do - grow a "yeard". That's right, no touching it for at least 12 months to see the full effects. Then you can go to a men's barber shop and get it trimmed and styled.

    Women, especially those who are or may become pregnant should not touch broken or crushed finasteride tablets. Touching broken or crushed finasteride tablets may harm the fetus. If a woman who is pregnant or who could become pregnant touches broken or crushed finasteride tablets, she should wash the area with soap and water immediately and call her doctor.

      @@UnimportantAccIt interfers with the normal Testosterone pathway (Technically it's a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor). Which for a fetus in vitro is really bad and can cause all sorts of malformities (Females have testosterone too). And since it can pass through the blood supply across the placenta the fetus can take it up. It's also bad for children to be exposed to this so anyone who is pre-puberty should also stay clear.
      Basically, it inhibits certain male pattern hormone development...
      Also, it has the potential to continue to do so even after ceasing medication.

    Do more research on finasteride mate. Look up post finasteride syndrome. I would drop it immediately, DHT should thicken the beard but would potentially speed up balding on your head if it runs in the family so in your case it shouldn’t be needed to be blocked or shut down. Blocking DHT would not be good long term for your well being mate.

    I wish I could never grow a beard. I hate having to shave all the time 🤣 Each to their own

    So you have to take medication for the rest of your life because you had the beard transplant?
    Realised that my comment might come across as judgmental, I didn't intend it to. Asking as I might consider getting a hair transplant in future to sort out my hairline but probably wouldn't bother if I also had to take medication for the rest of my life.

    Finasteride is going to hurt the beard growth long run. But you’ll keep the hair on your head.
