Foro Tener Pelo

I'm studying English and I was afraid of looking stupid writing in a foreign language because of my "bad" English, but now I feel a little bit more confident and I'd like to tell you my "hair story".
Please don't hesitate to correct me if I make a mistake.

There it goes.

My "hair story" has 4 surgeries and at the end of this document you'll be able to see a complete video with all the details, but first of all I want to tell you why it's been 4 surgeries, and the answer is easy: I didn't have enough money to make all the work at once, but I needed to do something because when I looked at myself in the mirror I saw the face of my father, and I love my father but it made me feel really bad. (When you see the pictures I think you're going to understand me very well).
So I spoke with Doctor Lorenzo about that and we decided to do 2 surgeries, after that, another one to re-build my temples, and finally the last one to put the cherry on the icing.

And now a brief summary of my alopecia.
I've been suffering from AGA since I was 25 years old (more or less), and when I was 32 I began to take Finasteride. 12 years later (now I'm 44), I continue taking it with any problem (I think you know what I mean).
I have tried to use Minoxidil but definitely I don't like it for many reasons but is long and difficult to explain them, and more in English

So let's get down to it.
Here you are the pictures:

December 2008. At the hotel, the night before the surgery:

Hair with gel:




Dry hair before having a shower:

At the hotel again. The surgery ended at 9 pm. and the pictures were taken at 10 pm.

10 months and 1,551 Grafts later:

2nd surgery.
February 2009, at Doctor Lorenzo's Clinic in Madrid (Spain).
In this occasion Doctor Ximena Vila also collaborated, but mainly Doctor Lorenzo.
We decided to strengthen the crown.

10 months later (January 2010), at the Cannary Islands (Spain).

Some more at the beach:




And now a little challenge. You have to find me in the picture (the answer is at the end).




Of course, as you have thought, I'm the man who is diving with an orange snorkel

It's the moment to renew my driving license if I don't want to have a problem in a check point.
(I don't know why but I look like a Middle-East person in the picture. I'm not so suntanned)

20 YEARS BEFORE AND AFTER:
One of my favorite movie ever is BACK TO THE FUTURE, and this is how I feel now.

20 years ago I was in Venezuela and I took the first picture. 20 years later I took another one (on the right), and I put in the middle the one in just before the surgery in 2008.

The difference? In 2008 I ate king prawns, and now I have to eat nuts
