Airplane Travel

It’s been several months since my procedure, and my wife, my son and I recently travelled from our home in Portland, OR back to see some of my family in the Midwest. Many of them had never met Elijah, so the time had come to make the trip.  “What does this have to do with your Bosley hair restoration” you ask?  Well, truthfully, not much. But the reason I am writing about it is because I found that the still-numb area on the back of my head was extra tingly. 

Actually, to be clear, the area that is still numb is actually the crown of my head – basically, the area between where they took the donor tissue and the ‘back edge’ of the transplanted area. It’s just a little bit smaller than the size of my hand. I’m not sure if it was the unique air pressure in the cabin, the special fabric on the airplane seat or just the stress of travelling with a 10 month old, but that area on my head was not just extra tingly, it was extra-super-duper-tingly. 

Here’s a picture of the fam on the airplane.
