BigBill,

Typically, the natural angle of your frontal native hair is pointing forward. Quality physicians attempt to mimic nature as closely as possible and usually follow this pattern. Once hair grows longer however, especially if it has a curl, it may appear to grow in different directions. That's why it sometimes takes time to train your hair to style the way you like it.

All the Best,

Bill

Those 2 areas should NOT stick up if the HT was done properly. I know this first hand. The temples if done correctly should genarally follow the fall of the rest of your hairline, they wont be exactly the same but they will be similar.

My temples wernt going in different directions before they became thinner and I had a shite HT, and I suspect yours wernt either otherwise you would think it was normal and not even be commenting about it.

Like Bill said "Typically, the natural angle of your frontal native hair is pointing forward" I suspect yours hairs are pointing backwards like mine. Pics may help.

I'll try to post pictures. They are not pointing backwards, just seem to be pointing up when it's dry. Almost at like a 45 degree angle forward I guess. It's pretty obvious to me that they are transplanted hairs just because of their angle. Besides that they look good...

I think it comes down to the hairstyle personally. If you are going for a short cut, I beleive the doc should go flatter than the existing remaining native hair because transpanted hair is coarser, especailly amongst native hairline hair. The other thing I figure is, i think we get transfixed on the mirror frontal picture at times.
