    What an epic video mate! I had mine done in Istanbul over 4 years ago one of the best things iv done although 4600 grafts sounds alot for your level of loss. I had 3600 but also had my temporal points brought out on the sides. I think they exaggerate the amount they tell you to make you feel like you’ve had more for your money. You should document your journey so we can keep track of your progress I think you’ll get alot of interest. What an amazing way to do it though taking your work of art with you (and the car lol) and making a real adventure out of it! Unreal content and an experience you’l never forget so hats off to you (excuse the pun) 👏🏼

    Great video Chris gotta be your best content up to now. Getting a hair transplant too at the end of this automotive odyssey makes it also personal and informative for many of your subscribers. Your girlfriend also looks one cool chic who doesn't mind supporting you on your crazy content creator career.
