Yes, I read it. 30% had recurrent folliculitis. I wonder why 30% had infected follicles? How could it be with such a wondrous advance? Also notice they appended “severe” in front of scarring. Talk about a non-scientific term. That almost certainly means scarring. I would love to see the connection between this “study” and the people marketing this “product”.
Look forward to seeing your before and after pictures.

It could be an interesting alternative for scars issues!
you are talking rubbish ,i have had these fibres all ready for many years and work great , yes they have a coating at the base wich ic compatable to the skin ect
i have had fibres that have lasted five years and they still look great

People have stated the problems with the old fibers, which are well known. These are not old fibers – that’s the whole point of his post.
It’s somewhat maddening reading these responses when people are clearly commenting on old technology. It’s like someone coming on here asking about hair transplants, with all the responses just stating how much plug grafts stink.

NW1s are uncommon, but not unnatural. The last time I checked, guys like JFK Jr., Brad Pitt, Tom Cruise, Ronald Reagan never had to cover their head in public because they had too much hair. To the contrary, they are/were considered some of the sexiest people in the world.
Nothing wrong with a NW1 on an adult male.

I wasn’t talking about the old fibers. I was talking about the new fibers. Not sure where you got that idea. For these new fibers, every fiber requires them to make a “hole” in your scalp. No matter what tools they are using, if you are getting 5000 fibers implanted, you are getting 5000 new holes in your head. And as they fall out, you have to get them reimplanted. That requires them to make that hole again. Every time that instrument goes into your head, it creates scarring. It’s unavoidable. That study didn’t say it didn’t scar. They claimed there was no “severe” scarring, whatever that means.
That study also said 30% had follicle infections after only 3 years. This is about the new fibers, not the old fibers.
This is just a bad idea. Again, I’m talking about the new fibers, not the old fibers.

agreed. I can’t understand this fear of having a teenage hairline. Of course some will look ridiculous, others don’t. Also, at the beginning, you will feel weird, but once you get used to it, I think you will love it. Also, if you are not convinced, you can always surgically remove these “extra hairs”.
what is the cost per hair?
thanks for posting

AJ, I think your points are interesting, but could you please debate respectfully?
I agree that 30% infection rate is too high, considering that the new coating is supposed to prevent that.
Regarding the holes and scarring, we don’t know the diameter of these holes. Maybe these are just small slots that heal with no scar. Of course, there is a risk of damaging existing dormant follicles, if you are unlucky and you strike one of them.
Regarding the fixed length and colour, it is almost funny that people is so worried about this. If I had a full head of hair, with gorgeous appearance, I wouldn’t mind if my hair doesn’t grow.
Regarding the photos that have been posted, most of them look very poor to me. Considering that they had unlimited “donor supply”, I would have expected wonderful results. But they are not. They look like regular hair transplants. The photos are small and poor.

If recent debates, specifically those including a poster I don’t need to name, are any indication, this AJ guy seems well within the bounds of “respectful”.
He doesn’t sound respectful enough to me. It looks as if he was annoyed by this debate, and he doesn’t even want this debate to take place.
He seems to want this debate to be closed quickly.
If AJ is right in his views, why is he in such a hurry?
I find this technology interesting.
Is it true that some countries still allow it? Like Japan?
If it is so dangerous, why an important country like Japan allows it?
Is AJ more wise than the Japan health authorities?
He treats the original poster as if he was a stubborn man who doesn’t want to see the facts after these has been explained many times to him. But the truth is that AJ has barely debated these facts.

Fair enough. As long as it doesn’t get too personal, I’m ok with it.
I’m on his side though. I wouldn’t consider getting grafts of synthetic hair with or without a 30% infection rate.
I didn’t mean to ‘engage personally’ to AJ.
I just felt that the original poster was not being treated fairly.
And this topic is interesting. Curiously, its the first time in a long time that I see a thread about synthetic hair in this forum. So I am quite disinformed about it.
I think that everything can be improved. And even if the current synthetic hairs were not satisfactory, I cannot see why the problems cannot be solved. There are people out there with synthetic hips. Why not hairs?
of course, it is much better if the hairs are alive, but given the recent failures of HM companies, maybe this solution takes too long to come, and other technologies could be researched.

I am sorry I don’t have time to read the whole thing, can someone tell me what is the differenece between the old fibers and the new fibers?

According to jonsy1234, the new fibers have a colagen coating to avoid immune attack. But even the new hairs seem to have infection. So it looks like more research is needed.

is it possible if I have this kind of hair 1st while waiting for HM?? and when HM comes to the market I take off all of this hair and get the real hair by HM? I mean would it damage the scalp??
since HM will come to the market like what?? 7-10 years right?
according to the info posted by jonsy1234, the attachment is reversible, and the hair can be removed with a special instrument with no scars.
