Day 9 post op
1584 grafts
Some of the hairs fell out when doing scab removal, which is obviously normal, but I still have a good amount of new hairs left. Im excited to see the growth over the next few months
Got my transplant today, 1584 grafts in total.
I am a 19 M college kid who is in university. I am in the process of buying a house that I plan on living in and renting out the other rooms to other college students. This is something that is not uncommon in the area that I am in. I wanted to buy the house before June 1st since that was the start of the new lease, but I was unable to.
​
I am supposed to close on the house next week and the tenants just found out a few days ago that I wanted to live there as well, however part of the lease that was added on before the owner listed the house was nobody else would be able to move in (I didnt know this right away). The owner knew that part of my deal was keeping a room open for me, and I thought the tenants had been informed since the owner accepted that part of my offer. I have had no contact with the tenants until now, so I couldn't make sure they even knew.
​
Now everything is worked out, and im waiting on one more thing before I can close, but now I can't live there. I met with one of the tenants since the others were unavailable, and he asked me a bunch of questions, and they all decided the next day that they dont want me to live there. I offered to pay for an extra utility or drop the rent slightly, but they still said they dont want me to live there. So I will have to get housing at the college and waste $6,000, which I can afford, but I was planning on putting that money towards the loan. Is there anything else I could do or offer in order to live at the house?
​
I am pissed at the owner for not saying this before I got an inspection, survey, and paid for an LLC, so I am over a grand into this house, and it feels stupid to back out now even though I could get my deposit from the title company back.
​
Im also mad at the tenants, but I also slightly understand the situation they are in. They asked how I felt about different things like drinking, parties, smoking, and I basically said I really didn't care as long as my property wasn't damaged and tried to say all the good things in order for them to agree for me to live there but they still didnt. They also plan on renewing the lease, at least some of them, I think some are seniors this year. But why would I renew the lease with people who are having me spend $6,000 for university housing. They said that me living with them next year is something they would think about, but I am living in my house next year whether they like it or not. I can find new people to live there once the lease they signed ends in May
​
Am I being an asshole if I abide by every single part of the lease and dont give them a break on anything? Like I only have to supply and maintain the refrigerator and stove according to the standing lease, but apparently, the dryer is going out. If it goes out, I dont have to fix it, but if I lived there, I would because I use it too. Same with the dishwasher or washer if they end up going out. Also, in the lease, it states they can't have any other vehicles besides regular vehicles, but they have a trailer in the yard because the old owner gave them written permission. So I can have them remove it right when I buy the house because the permission with the old owner wouldn't be applicable anymore. I would feel like a bad person doing this, but I am pissed I have to spend $6,000 on housing, so I dont know if this is the right route.
​
Should I let the tenants know now that I do not plan on renewing the lease since they are screwing me over on housing. But what if they get mad and they treat my property like shit because they are pissed at me.
​
I could also just deal with the situation. Be nice to them and just get them out of there after the year is over, which would make me feel like a better person, but my parents think I should try to "get back at them" in a sense. Am I just being an asshole in this situation, or what should I do?
​
The tenants are all males around my age, so it's not like its females, and im trying to be creepy or anything. There are also 2 open rooms left, but they won't let anyone else live there.
​
What can I do?

I have a terrible hairline and a large forehead. I am not so insecure about my forehead, but my hairline, which is a mature hairline but on steroids, really bothers me. It affects my mental health all the time, and I spend so much time trying to hide it, and I have so much anxiety over it.
Im considering a hairtransplant as I wouldn't need too many grafts since it is a relatively smaller area than some people get hair transplants for, but im worried about the process of getting it
Should I just get it in the US, or should I travel abroad since it's cheaper?
If I do travel for it, how can I trust a foreign clinic, and what if I get scammed?
Furthermore, what is the healing process like I've heard so many different things?
Please take the time to answer as I'm finally reaching out for help
I have always been made fun of in school for having a big forehead and a terrible hairline. I always cut my hair in a way to try and hide those things. Nevertheless, I was prone to people saying "hairline check" and other stupid comments to me. I was never insecure until people mentioned it.
I feel like a majority of this is just my hairline. I dont personally believe that I am actually balding, but idk what to do. Does it look like im balding? Should I get on medication or another treatment option? Should I see a dermatologist and find out what my options are?
I tried finding younger photos of me to see if my hairline has always been this bad, but my hair was covering it in every photo I could find, so I can't even verify if it's been like this since I was a kid.
I am deeply concerned about how my hair looks all the time, and accepting it and shaving it off isn't an option at this point. I also can not grow it out to extreme lengths since I have to keep my hair shorter for my job. What can I do?
