Jared Gravatt, as he puts it, was “gifted with the genes of a receding hairline.”
The 34-year-old man from rural Illinois has tried out various hair-growth treatments throughout his life. He told PEOPLE that he had been thinking about getting a hair transplant for “years.” His decision to actually go through with it came after one of his friends went to Turkey for the same procedure.
“He went to Istanbul and got really great results. He said it was one of the best decisions he’d ever made,” Gravatt told PEOPLE. That’s what made him look into Now Hair Time, the same hair transplant facility his friend had visited, for his own transformation. Over the past few months, he has been sharing his journey on Instagram.
“I love traveling, so the idea of getting the hair transplant done in Turkey didn’t scare me,” Gravatt said, explaining why he chose Istanbul for the procedure. “A lot of people asked me why I didn’t do it in America. But I liked the idea of going to a different place, and it was also about one-fourth of the cost compared to the U.S.”
Since Gravatt had his friend’s recommendation and was impressed by Now Hair Time’s good social media marketing, he quickly felt confident in the facility. He became even more convinced it was the right choice for him during the consultation process. This process includes a thorough health check. A representative from the facility assesses a potential client’s scalp and figures out what’s needed for the hair transplant procedure.
During this consultation, potential clients can ask as many questions as they want. For Gravatt, who says he’s an “anxious” person, this was really reassuring. Everything is clearly explained, like how many grafts will be needed to transplant the hair on the scalp, where the grafts will come from, what kind of transplanting procedure will be used, what the stay at the facility will be like, and how long it will last. And it’s all customizable.
Now Hair Time offers different packages at various price levels that you can adjust to fit your needs and budget. Gravatt points out that it’s cheaper than similar services in the U.S., and the environment is “clean and professional.” He also had a translator available to him at all times.
