- My name is Melvin I am a Forum Co-moderator and Editorial Assistant with the Hair Transplant Network. I used to be a completely bald Norwood 6 with no hair or hope. Today, I am happy to report that I have regained most of my hair and confidence through surgery. Also, with some help of hair loss concealers. So enjoy this video and don't worry about going swimming, the rain or anything else!

Great, simple video. I love when HT videos are taken out of perfect lighting and/or scenarios. The world is not a huge lab where everyone is looking at our hair at close up distance.
Derm Match is a great addition to hair fibers. I personally like to use super small amounts to just give density a small bump. After applying, I comb over, spray and then clean excess of the outermost layer of the hairdo so it won’t stain clothes or hands, etc.
Keep up the good work

Very true thanks Juan🙏🏼
I love this channel and thank you so much for putting yourself out there. God Bless Brotha
🙏🏼
Love ur way of teaching
Since no-one is mentioning it: 1st of all, I think it's very courageous of you to show us what your hair looks like without concealer - given the fact that you've undergone (a) hair transplant(s), that must be a source of insecurity, no matter how many people tell you that's it not nearly as bad as you feel.
And 2ndly, man! are you a good-looking chap! Too bad the camera didn't pan down when you were in your bathers ;-)
Look how many people liked this creepy comment 😑
I had a hair transplant but prioritized the top of my head and my hairline. I didn't have enough hair from the donor site to cover the crown so I use hair concealer for that as well. With medium length hair and some magic, my hair looks fantastic like Melvin's :)
I’m in a similar situation, though I have light coverage in the crown. Hair looks awesome in your thumbnail 🙌🏼
How does that works? Is it too expensive?
Derm match WORKS BEST hands down. I have hair loss like yours and I'm 50 yrs old, but I just rub the hockey puck derm match on my hair dry. Wetting derm match doesnt work as good. Dry is so much easier...
I agree 👍
Thank you for this video bro!
Great video Melvin, thank you
Thank you Antonio
Thanks for the video. Can you tell me precisely which hairspray I need to use? And is Dermmatch sticky? Like if you would go with your hands through your hair with it totally rub off on your hands?
Hey Melvin. Thanks for a great vlog. I would be curious to see how sitting in a sauna would affect the Dermatch? The reason I ask is that I take my holiday's in Thailand and the weather is incredibly hot and humid. The same for Northern Australia (I'm an Aussie). I'm just wondering how it would hold when the water (via perspiration) comes from the body temperature causing extreme sweat from the inside as opposed to coming externally. Thanks for sharing man!
it will stay on as long as you dont wipe it. For example, if you're sweating, use a small towel/cloth and lightly pat your head down as opposed to wiping to avoid it smearing
Fantastic video. To the Dermatch are you applying water or just adding directly without water?
I add a little water, but not too much.
Thanks for the video
Hey Melvin,, Is that all there is to using fibres? Is it really that easy or have you just got it down to a science ? I’ve always been wary of fibres only because some of the videos I watched of people using them made it look really high maintenance and time consuming, but if they’re that easy to use then I see no reason not to use them.
I’ve been mulling over getting a transplant for a few years now and it’s been quite stressful. I’m a NW3 at 24 years old and showing signs of progressing to at least a NW 4-5 if I don’t get back on Finasteride. To boot I also have Retrograde alopecia on my sideburns and temple points and I’m debating if I want to address it if I get a transplant .
I want more density on my sides if possible as it would enhance the results, but I don’t want to go overboard and use up donor hair that could be needed if my hair loss continues in future. It’s a tricky position to be in. However if stuff like toppik isn’t time consuming and easy to use then I think I’d feel comfortable moving forward with surgery. If the worst case scenario happens and Finasteride doesn’t help me maintain I could always use fibres to cover my crown.
I had a consultation with a surgeon about a month. He quoted me for 2000 grafts via FUT for 7000$. He said to take as much time as I need to think things over. Do you think I should go through with it?
I'm going to be making a video today on this, so stay tuned. I'm not going to pretend like concealers don't take time to put on, because they do, but it's well worth it in my opinion. You can take someone who is bald(ing) to someone who has a full head of hair. If I had the chance to do it all over again. I would have definitely used concealers at your age.
Ur my fkkn hero bro! Thx! 🙏🏽 which fibers did u use?
Caboki
Does mixing the fibers keep the Dermamatch from rubbing off on your pillow at night? Seems like the fibers would serve as a good barrier.
Rick Baker
No, unless you wash the dermmatch off with shampoo, it will stain the pillow.
Mike leaves at night with hairspray it does not leave ?
Can dermmatch be used with hair concealer spray?
This combo have similar results on temples?
Thank you so much 💕
🙏🏼
Bro. I just wanted to know is there any product do you have through which we can colour our White into blk
Decent Person
Check out just for men on amazon
Is dermatch harmful to your existing hair ? Is it okay to you use daily?
seto mulyadi
Dermmatch is not harmful to your existing hair. You can use it daily.
Great video
Thank you 🙏🏼
Love you bro
Should I even bother to add fibers and hairspray with derm match if I will be going swimming? Should I just use derm match alone to swim?
Using fibers definitely helps
wow thanks for the video. i have one more question.. i plan to go on vacation for ten days, with friends but i have a crown like you. should I apply this treatment every time I go swimming? or can I apply it before going on vacation (will it stay on my head for 10 days?)
I do not recommend having it on for 10 days. Max 2-3 days.
@@HairTransplantNetwork thank you very much 👍🏼👍🏼
Does the dermmatch color stain on your hands? It doesnt drip when there's water? Does it mean it is waterproof?
No it doesn’t drip with water, or stain your hands. It will stain your pillow if you sleep on a white pillowcase, and don’t wash it out.
Hey mate, i watched a video of your’s recently where you tested a hair fibre with bed head hair spray and put your head under the tap. I ordered toppik fibres and bed head hair spray. Your honest advise if it rains would would fibres with hair spray be ok?
Yes. I wouldn’t intentionally have your head for a long time in the rain. But if you have to walk a short distance in the rain you’ll be fine
I'd be curious to know how you wash this product out effectively if it's designed to withstand water.
You have to use a lot of shampoo.
It dont
Do you using a blowdryer as well for it to set?
Yes it helps it set
What's the hairspray?
Does it come out when you run your fingers through your hair,where you've applied it,on a dry scalp?
Yes
Put it on your head and you will have it on you and everyone else
Interesting topic should be : the case of Matthew Mcconaughey!!
Matthew had a wig or hairtransplant?
I would see a video about this!
Soma Hegedős
Interesting 🤔 stay tuned 😁
Is it enough to just use dermmatch? does need to blow our hair after applying dermmatch?
It’s enough to use dermmatch, but use hair spray to make it extra tough
Hello what is thé First you put on your haïr before toppik please ?
It was called dermmatch, it’s a great product.
T series 😂😂😂😂
Hello, One question, does the spray help with the waterproof?
Yes, it helps keep the hair fibers and the dermmatch locked in.
@@HairTransplantNetwork Any spray recomendation to have a try? thanks
@@clementee263
Any hair spray works, but I use tresseme hard hold spray.
What hairspray do you recommend that hold hold dermmatch and hair fibers?
Tresseme hard hold
@@HairTransplantNetwork can you please share the link of this hairspray?
I cant find it in Google
Awesome video man, question, does dermmatch rub off on things like bedding or pillows?
Yea it does
Nice job
Thank you! Cheers!
What fixative did you use?
Bed head hard head hair spray
where can i get the dermatch

@@HairTransplantNetwork gracias hombre!!!
Hes full of bull...It rubs off on everything and he's just trying to make money off you
Melvin, you know Toppik goes off with water. So how come and how much of it does stick in water after you apply it between a Dermmatch and a spray?
Toppik will stick with the right hair spray
So you aren't making a cold sandwich with toppik as the cheese and dermmatch/spray as the bread to make toppik stick in water? Then why do you bother with all three at the same time, you have little area to cover? Does Taft good enough of a spray to hold toppik? Help me here, man, I've been avoiding walking under rain swimming having fun socializing around swimming literally nearly for two decades to avoid exposing myself. I've been terrorized around and fleeing any kind of water anywhere around my head. I will try this time, but am afraid of finally exposing my head and my decades old secret.
@@HairTransplantNetworkwhat type of hairspray you use? Any brand name, or a link?
Can you tell me what spray is that ?
The hair spray or concealer?
Hair Transplant Network I am talking about the last spray you used ?
shehbaz shaikh
Tressemme hard hold hair spray
Can I apply toppik without Dermmatch ?
Yes, definitely
Would Dermmatch work well on the hairline?
Deeb Zeal
It depends, you have to be a master at applying it, otherwise it can look really bad.
@@HairTransplantNetwork may I know the cost and location in dubai plz
@@HairTransplantNetwork Apart from Dermmatch, are there any other products that are good to use for receding hairline?
If you've used DermMatch, what are the pros and cons of it, not compared to Toppik, but "compared to itself"?
I can make a video on it.
We can purchase from in india
Yes
Bro.how to convert white colour into black colour.
What do you mean?
I can play soccer with this ?
Do the DermMatch and hair fibers locked with a hair spray cause staining on seat covers ?
It locks in, but if you rest your head against something white it will stain it.
@@HairTransplantNetwork thanks for the reply. It’s not exactly white seat I’m sure but I plan to wear and lock in with the spray for a flight and it’s an 8 hours flight so I was expecting my head to rest against the seat.
You barely show the brand name of the first item you put. Then you did not show the before and after result of the patch.
The brands are in the title
@@HairTransplantNetwork yah. Tnx. Is this available in body shop?
Your hair isnt that bad. Thats why it stays. I've been using Toppik for years and it washes out easily. Not sure if other fibers are better.
Yea, you need hair to use concealers, that’s why I got a hair transplant so I could use concealers.
You already have a full head of hair dude
Brandon Evans
I wish lol but it’s better thanks to hair transplants.
@@HairTransplantNetwork which dermmatch and toppik you use????
satish sharma
I use both
Link to backgroud music bro ?
So was that Caboki or Toppik?
It was both, but dermmatch is what makes it waterproof
Thank you! I have a full head of thin hair..you can see my whole scalp when my hair is wet..Got the dermmatch today it is GREAT!
BKazzanova05
Awesome man, I’m gonna do a hairstyle tutorial using both, so keep a look out.
@@BKazzanova05 what is the cost?
@@knbbashyal9986 $47.00 on Amazon and it lasts long. www.amazon.com/DermMatch-Waterproof-Concealer-Naturally-Concealers/dp/B01A5SQ3T8
Head was underwater for about 8 seconds at best
JamieF250686
I dunked my head several times, obviously I’m not gonna be able to swim underwater and film myself at the same time.
papi!!!
These products are good but can massively effect your mental health, take over your life and thought. If I had my time again I’d just keep my head shaved 🤟🏼
That’s fair, I’ve had several hair transplants, so there’s no fear of the concealers no longer working. In my experience, that’s what makes people obsessed. I can go without them and look relatively normal.
@@HairTransplantNetwork I’m in the same situation, four hair transplants and now finally don’t use concealer 🥴 it’s about accepting you’re never going to have your hair back fully and it’ll always have drawbacks 🤟🏼
Use the fibres for armpit hairs too 😁😁
Wear a swimcap...U don't this drama
There's no level of hair transplants that would give you hair that thick from a norwood 6....
Jay Hovah
You’re right. But with concealers you can achieve this appearance and go swimming 🙃
@@HairTransplantNetwork can i see his before and after?

@@HairTransplantNetwork how much?
Why didn't you show us when in the pool without an intervening edit. Just bizarre.
I literally filmed myself dunking my head in the pool multiple times.
@@HairTransplantNetwork no what you did was film your front when you applied it to the crown, and only showed the crown once an edit was applied to the video. Would you like a diagram?
Dermath rubs off on everything ...Do t let him try to fool you...Hes nust trying to sell it
I have no affiliation with dermmatch. I’m not selling anything. This is what I used for swimming. If you don’t like it, don’t use it. Simple.
You have commented on this video several times. What has your experience when using this method? What has been your experience with Dermmatch vs Toppik?
Wow just a lil bit wat a girl
That shit don't work
