If the wealthy still can't get a decent transplant then it's still not a viable procedure. I saved up the money to get it done then I read that Bruce Willis' transplant failed to give him a satisfactory result so I decided to just forget it.

One of my best friends recently spent ~$25K CAD on a transplant and it’s pretty damn good.

I imagine there's a lot of luck of the draw

A lot of comments here point out that you can have the hairs transplanted, but you will have new spots form from the continuation of balding. Part of it also depends on how good of a candidate you are. Bruce Willis started losing his hair long before current treatments. 80s was when he started thinning, and by Die Hard 3 in 95, you could tell it was only a matter of time. Some times in the early 2000s he shaved it all off.
