Top Notch
My situation;
I have had the condition called Alopecia Areata in the past, it is commonly a stress related reaction that causes 50p size bald spots and hair loss in random areas like eyebrows. It looked odd, I wanted to look normal again so i decided to do something about it. Time had passed and my normal hair was also thinning. I found Capital Hair thru reviews like this one.
Education on the service;
Capital Hair offer a wide range of solutions thru state of the art techniques like 'FUE' = Follicular Unit Extraction, that painstakingly removes each follicle individually from a donor area (usually from sides and back) and each follicle is prepared and re-set in the transplant area. This differs from old style techniques where areas are cut out and kind of turfed in the transplant area. Imo FUE is far superior and as long as you have a skilled practitioner the benefits and outcome offer a far wider range of solution than other treatments to my knowledge as a lay person.
Darryl was the person who, apart from having incredible levels of patience and knowledge is extremely genuine and professional but the main criteria for me was his deep knowledge of everything to do with this proceedure, the care he takes to explain everything and above all the honesty in conveying what can be realistically expected. If someone is motivated solely by money they could easily have left out certain details but judging by my experience you can expect to be told the truth and reality of what the possibilities are for YOUR case and be given the time and space for this consideration, Darryl was always available to answer any queries i had.
At every stage of proceedings the communication was excellent, one thing that must be stressed imo is that if you are thinking of having this procedure it should be understood that you are having a serious medical procedure, this is not a simple cosmetic undertaking . The care, attention to detail and consideration for the client reflects this.
The procedure;
Capital Hair have practices in Harley Street UK and also in Istanbul Turkey. As I was not in the UK at the time I opted for Istanbul which also offered a slight cost reduction/perhaps greater numberof grafts. All of the logistics ; travel , flights, airport taxi and 4 star hotel were included. I was met in Istanbul by Kane who knows the ropes and has an infectious positivity driven by his own personal experience with Capital Hair and a wish that others share that good experience, his procedure looks so good! And again, any issues or logistics it was all taken care of.
Summary;
The main thing you want to know if you are considering hair restoration treatment is the quality and success of this proceedure, it has only been a week but it really does look great now, it obviously is short now, like a buzz cut. To carry out such a large amount of grafts it is necessary to inject the scalp with a lot of painkilling injections, i am not going to lie, it was quite painful. Referring to the quality and skill of the Capital Hair practitioner, it is now at this point possible to ascertain the eye for detail required to produce an even smooth result. As mentioned the donor area from where hair must be taken evenly from and in my case then filled in amongst existing hair evenly and it all looks very smooth and even.
From first enquiry to travel to operation to the point of writing this now ; 1 week after the procedure, I can only give top marks in all areas. I never felt like anything other than the success of the procedure was focus of the Capital Hair team. Capital Hair have been absolutely top notch in every way and I can't recommend them enough
I’ve been contemplating having a hair transplant for some time now, and so I decided to book a consultation with capital hair restoration. The consultation was very good, my questions were answered and it seemed very professional.
Towards the end of the call I explained I had a very limited budget, and it was agreed if I proceeded with the procedure that a reduced rate could be offered.
The quotation was sent to me following the call, and in the meantime I gathered some quotes from other clinics.
Some days later Darryl contacted me, and asked if I had received the quote, and re-sent the quote. Upon analysing the quote I discovered that the reduced rate was only available if I paid a significant deposit by the specified date, which was a very short time frame.
I was really shocked that Darryl tried to push me into a deadline to pay a deposit using hard sale techniques. Some weeks later Darryl reached out and asked if I had a chance to review the quote. I explained that I really didn’t appreciate the hard sale techniques, and that I felt as if I was trying to be pressured into the purchase. I explained that having a hair transplant is a huge decision to make, and is one that needs time and consideration. It came across like he was really desperate for the business.
I was expecting Darryl to reply, and apologise, but weeks now have gone by and I’ve heard nothing.
I’ve since had consultations with 3 other clinics, none of which used hard sale techniques, they all gave me time to think it through, and were far more professional. I’d be wary using the company as they seem very desperate for the business, which for me rings alarm bells.
I was nervous on who to go with for a hair transplant, and after lots of research, capital hair restoration was the stand out company and Im so happy I went through with it.
The whole process from the initial message, to a video call with Darryl who explained everything so well and make it all sound so easy was amazing.
The day of procedure was incredible, the surgeon and team were incredible, rhey make you feel so relaxed and at ease.
The after care is also the main factor i went with Darryl, hes always at thr end of a message and nothing is too much trouble.
Highly recommended 👌
Trying to make a decision about which company to go with can be daunting, especially when you hear horror stories about failed hair transplants in Turkey. That’s exactly why I’m so glad I chose Capital Hair Restoration.
From the very first consultation with Darryl, the professionalism, transparency, and genuine care were outstanding and immediately put me at ease. I opted for an FUE transplant, which was a brilliant decision, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish.
Capital Hair Restoration can organise the procedure in the UK if you prefer, but to keep costs down they also offer the option to travel to Turkey. Rather than sending you out alone, they send a small group of people all undergoing the procedure, and they also send out staff members to support the trip — for our trip, we had Kane, who guided us through everything, explained each step clearly, and kept everyone calm and reassured throughout.
The clinic was immaculate, incredibly well organised, and run like clockwork, with a highly qualified medical team and first-class standards. A huge bonus was that the clinic is right next door to the hotel, so there’s no waiting around in traffic — you can simply walk back and get some proper rest straight after the procedure.
All aftercare was fully covered — foams, shampoos, and all medication required for healing were provided. The hotel was excellent, in an ideal location, and perfectly suited to the trip.
The service has continued well beyond the procedure itself. Now that I’m post-procedure, I’m genuinely amazed by the ongoing check-ins and check-ups I still have access to. Any questions — like when can I go back to the gym? or how long do I need to sleep upright? — are answered quickly via WhatsApp, with impressively fast response times.
We were also put into a WhatsApp group with the people I travelled out with, which has been a huge help for those common “is anyone else starting the shedding phase?” type of questions.
Overall, it’s been well worth the price for the outstanding level of service provided. I couldn’t recommend Capital Hair Restoration highly enough

I've read previous reviews.
And what I've read, is identical to my experience.
I am currently 2.5 weeks after my transplant. And on top of everything else, the aftercare has been amazing.
It is not, take your money, do your hair, see you later!
No. From day one consultation, to day one transplant, which, deposits, payments, time frames and travel dates were all my own choice, any questions and queries were answered. And since we returned from Turkey. Darryl has been in contact all the time. Making sure I keep sending pics, staying on top with my hair care, from the antibiotics, to the shampooing, to removing the scabs, to my own well-being. He's been on the ball!
CHR are running like a well oiled machine. Meet at the airport, fly with your group and everything else is taken care of. I travelled with 6 other guys (and Darryl) from different walks of life, all at ease, because we're all doing the same thing.
I can't comment fully on the results as that can take at least 6 months. But I have full confidence, given there track record and seeing for myself how much care there has been throughout, and following the procedure. I feel like I can recommend them right now.

Steve and the team at Capital Hair Restoration were absolutely brilliant from start to finish. From the initial consultation, all the way through to prepping me for the trip, arranging everything and being with me in the clinic to the comprehensive aftercare. The results are incredible and it was money very well spent. Would have no problem recommending them to anyone and frequently do!

Hi Brad
Thanks so much for your kind review. We are delighted that you are fully satisfied 6 months post procedure. The great thing is that you still have 6 months of further improvements in the density to come. You only have around 70-80% density so far. and you will continue to see an improvement over the next 3-6 months. We look forward to checking in with you for your 9 and 12 month reviews and seeing further progress.

From the initial in-person consultation all the way through to the post-treatment, Darryl was extremely professional, reassuring and approachable. At the consultation I was made to feel at ease right away and it was reassuring to be shown so many positive outcomes from prior patients who had been in a similar position as me. Darryl was very knowledgeable, he clearly explained to me all the available treatment options and was able to answer any questions that I had.
Ultimately, I opted to undertake a hair transplant procedure through Capital Hair Restoration (CHR), to be carried out in Istanbul, Turkey. Although I was initially somewhat apprenhensive about having the procedure done in another country, I needn't have been; everything was organised flawlessly by CHR and Darryl - from flights, food, transport, accommodation and the procedure itself. Darryl flew out with myself and two other patients and he was with us throughout the whole process. The hotel was lovely and the staff at the clinic were extremely professional and hospitable. Darryl went out of his way to ensure we were being looked after and always made himself available for any questions. It was very gratifying to travel with a small group and we built up a good rapport with one another that served to relieve any tension we might have felt.
I am currently in the post-treatment phase of the process and taking regular photos of the treated area for CHR to review. Darryl has remained in close contact and remained available to reassure and advise on any queries.
Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better experience and I would highly recommend Capital Hair Restoration to anyone considering treatment for hair loss.

Capital Hair Restoration have been the best experience for me. From initial consultation, follow up meeting in London and the procedure itself based in Turkey, the whole process has been professional and very well organised. I have researched hair restoration for years and was nervous to go ahead due to all the horror stories. Capital Hair was recommended to me and I couldn't be more happy. Both Darryl and Steve run a professional but also personal service which relives any fears or questions that you may have. I'm looking forward to my new hair growing over the next few months. Thanks Chaps.

A very professional service from initial consultation, travel, procedure and aftercare. It made quite a daunting experience into a fun one sharing it with some other guys also going over to the Turkey clinic have it done. Darryl was there every step of the way to make sure we were looked after and any questions were answered. I've just been back a few days, but healing well and looking forward to some great results when it's all settled :)

I would like to thank everyone involved who got me through this process. From the very first conversation I had I felt confident and exited to move forward with the treatment. My hair is something that I’ve struggled with for a long time and I only wanted to get help from people I knew I could trust and I felt I could trust capital hair from day 1. The experience over in Istanbul was smooth and much better than I thought it would be. They truly looked after everyone who came over with them and helped all of us each step of the way insuring we are comfortable and in a good place. I would highly recommend capital hair to anyone who was struggling like I was. Exited for the next 12 months.
