Good points. Whether to have FUE or FUT/Strip is an individual choice. There are pros and cons to each procedure. I’m a bit partial to FUE myself, but there is still a place for Strip procedures as well.
Nice blog, by the way. Lots of great pictures under a variety of lighting. Your results have come a long way 
Keepitshort,
I agree. You have come a long way. Two question. The nape hairs. Did Dr. Umar mention that a certain percentage of men lose nape hairs at advanced ages? And that no one knows who will. And did Dr. Umar strategically place the nape hairs just in case they fall out when you get older? Thanks in advance.

Keepsitshort,
Is it safe to guess they didn’t mention this to you?

Keepitshorter,
First, good job on the blog. I like to see where guys are doing extensive documentation. You may not realize it but I started doing the same thing six years ago when I first started getting repaired by Dr. Wong. I consider documenting to be a form of self therapy in dealing with the recovery, not just from the surgery itself but more from the old hack jobs.
Secondly, I have to comment about the nape hair issue. I’m hoping you continue with your documentation because I have yet to see, to this day, a single nape hair hairline that has ever successfully grown. Many have talked the talk, none have walked the walk. With your enthusiasm for blogging I hope to see a positive result. Thanks for sharing.

Hairtech,
I have the greatest confidence in Dr. Umar’s experience and wisdom to make the right decisions for me in regards to my situation. Unlike hair that is destined to fail which does not fair well under trauma, I have had very good growth of this hair through extensive scar tissue as early as 4 months. I am not losing much sleep over worrying about whether or not the nape hair is going to fall out in many years to come, lol.
To answer your question, the nape hair was placed in my crown area. Have you ever seen anyone with isolated crown thining before?
To make matters better, I have literally thousands more available scalp hair grafts in the event I need them in the future. This coupled with having Dr. Umar as my physician leaves me with no worries.
If you pay attention to my blog you will learn of reasons why I maintain Dr. Umar is man and physician of his word, and his character, integrity, experience, and dedication to his patients are unparrelled; the clear, upclose, detailed, unmatched photographs in my blog speak for themselves as to the excellent results Dr. Umar achieves even in difficult cases.
Thank you for your comments and observations and please enjoy:

keepitshort,
I would agree that you should still look good even if any of these hairs were lost. It seems that most of the individuals who do loose them are 70+ years of age. Nape hair is of a finer caliber but is a good source of donor hair in the right treatment plan. Who is to say that you will loose them in the future? No one can predict which patients may loose a percentage of nape hairs.
