I just wanted to see if anyone has suffered from a dry scalp 8 months after a ht ? Keep in mind i live in Canada and its chilly here and it can get dry at best of times . I have had some growth starting to sprout in the crown area the last few weeks ( thank god , i was getting concerned ). I had 3300 fue's back in June . I have been putting creme on my head before bed .... i just wondered if anyone can suggest anyting ie ... special lotion ? aside from that things are going great !!! Im getting younger by the day lol !!! Cheers

Good Morning Urask Well i have to tell you that i did have the same concerns as yourself regarding h/t's . I am in sales and have to deal with people face to face and i was utterly concerned that my ht would be obvious to my clients . I was so wrong , i had a 3300 follicular unit ht back in June of this year . I have to tell you that i dont think anyone was wise to my surgery . I did take off ten days after my transplant and that was more than enough time to heal without notice . I would say that i would let your hair grow a wea bit more to disguise your surgery , i just changed my hair style a bit ( combed forward ) , if my hair was too short i wouldnt have been able to do that . I have to say the ONLY regret i have is that it was so easy i should have done it a few years ago . My donor scar is pretty large as i had a pretty big session but its pretty hard to see even right after you have it done ... i keep it a bit longer than before my ht , just until the scar fades a bit more . So i would tell you from my expierence i would go for it ... i truly believe that it was one of the best things i have ever done in my life ... i am about the same age as you and i know what you are going through . This site has coached me through all the questions that have come up after my transplant which has helped a great deal ... it seems to take forever to grow .... it doesnt really but your so excited to see new growth . I feel as if i turned back the clock ten years with the hair i now have ... so i would say go for it just make sure you choose the right Doctor . Good Luck !!!

So i have just hit the 6 month marker after my 3300 follicular unit ht . My doctor said that was about 6200 plus hairs ? Anyhow i have seen lots of growth on my front hairline , the hairs are finer in texture at this point , i understand they will get thicker based on what i have read here ? Anyway i am concerned that the crown area hasnt really filled in much ? My hair is lighter ( dirty blond ) i guess i was hoping for a more dense look ? I still feel alot of tingling on my head , and there are still several tiny bumps on my scalp ... im assuming thats new hairs breaking through ? I guess my question is .... am i on track here ... should my crown have shown more signs of growth .... or am i still pretty early to see more results ... im concerned ... not paniced ... yet ??? Any comments would be appreciated . Thanks

I know exactly how you feel , im at about 5 months now and boy is there ever a difference !! All of a sudden you look in the mirror to a new hairline .. its unreal . I had the same concerns as you , its a horrible feeling !!!! Hang in there ... if you wait they will come !!! lol

Ok so im at the 4.5 month period after a h/t and right now there is lots going on in my front hairline but the crown is sitting dormant ... or at least there is very little growth ? Is this common ..... i know its early in the game for me , but im curious to know whats up ? Im kinda worried that there is nothing going to grow in back ?
