My hair has been receding and thinning for a while now – getting to the point that I need to make a decision soon which route to go down. One short term solution would be to to go for a hair transplant just to fill the temples – so my hairline is restored. The idea would be that this would last me at least a few years, until the crown etc starts to go..

Another would be to go straight for a hair system. Either partial, just to restore my hair line or full so I can have the old thickness of my hair back. Was hoping that by looking at the attached pics, you could give me your personal opinions?

Thanks in advance!
