Today, I noticed a lot more hair in my hat, and my head feels dry. I sprayed it a couple of times. Having less soreness in the back but still itchy. My hat had some crusts in it as well:)

After taking pics today I have noticed some redness and some pimples. Not noticeable unless I look really close. A couple of shedders also.

Hello all, Today I had some soreness at the donor area. It has been really itchy back there. The front have been going really well. Alliswell- I totally agree with you. I saved for a year for this HT. Besides buying a home or a car. This is the most expensive thing I have ever done, and not knowing if it will work, damn right I will stress when I think it's not going well. Thats why I update everyday. So when someone else gets a HT. They can look at my post and compare. Its all about helping:)

Another day down. Noticed a couple of pimples today.

I cut my hair today. The back was getting really long and curly, and people at work kept asking to see my "long hair". Week 4 started had a couple of shedders today:)

3 weeks down, low shedding, hoping I can go from this look to growth. I have seen others go through the process like this. I know week 4 is big shedder week. So we shall see:)

I went to my primary doc today, she was really impressed with my scar progression. Also since Im on Propeicia I need to get my PSA checked...Anyways I have been checking my hat for HT shedders not many in there which is good:)

I had some shedding today. I could only tell 1 graft from the HT was in the bunch. It had a white dot on it. I was a little worried it was the bulb but no blood so it should be just normal. My wife said it looks like the grafts are growing. I dont know if thats possible?

I have been working a super early shift at work lately, like 3am. I wear a hat at work. I have been feeling little pricks like the hairs are growing or pushing through the remaining scabs. Has anyone has experienced that. Besides that it Looks really good to me so far:) Pics have been all after Showers

I had a couple hairs come out with the scabs. No blood looked clean:)

It was a lazy sunday. Not to much going on. I washed twice again all the way to the scalp I cant tell if shedding has started or not?

So i am starting washing 2 times a day. I have been gently massaging the scalp in the shower after i get it wet with a cup.(Still dont want to put my head under the shower).. Besides that, all good:)

Wow, Cant believe its been 2 weeks so far. I have been happy so far with my HT. I am just have a a little trouble with crust.(Im just gonna gently massage them if they fall out good if not then I just gonna leave it). The Big goal of no grafts falling out before 2 week has been reached. Hopefully the grafts stay as long as they can. I know the shedding process is next. I am liking my daily updates I think I will continue with them.

Update: I talked to my Doc. And i took another shower and shampooed all the way to the scalp . Most of the crust are gone

Thnx for the replys. Im barely touching them. When I had my staples out, they told me the grafts look really. I still spray to keep moist. It just looks weird. But I have been really babying them. I was wondering if I just left them and not touched them. Would that have a negative affect on my growth.

More Crusting. Trying to rub them out.

I am having a hard time getting the crust out. Any tips

Thanks gillenator for your quick response and ideas about crusting. I have been wearing a hat to work the last 2 days and a lot of crusts or scabs have fallen into it. They look like white-ish yellow dots. Here are my pics from today:)

Today i had my staples removed and it felt like a pressure release, it felt great. Dr. Haber was not in the office today. I talked to Jessica, who I would consider Dr. Haber's Right hand Women. She said everything looked good. When I got home I noticed a lot of crust on the tips of the grafts, So I got my hands all soapy with Baby Shampoo and gave myself a gentle scalp massage. What do you guys think. You can see all my daily updates if you click on my name..

Still waiting on scabbing.. I have my staples out 2morrow. So I will have a good update 2morrow..

I am in day 8 after HT: I really cant tell if my scabbing is going well, Both pics are from today one is normal in which you cant tell any scabbing but one is zoomed in. I dont now if its scabbing or crust of anything. Any Help would appreciated.:confused:

Today I left my Apt for the first time in a week. I went out and bought hat for work next week. I zoomed in on my pics to see if anyone can tell how the scabs are coming I am.

I made it 7 days. I have a staples removal app on day 10. So i will have a good update on how well im healing. I really cant tell if the scabs are coming out. Maybe a HT vet. Can help me out.. JonBoy71 I dont plan on having the crown done. Hopefully the proceipia will help

So i received a letter from Dr. Haber today stating my numbers :

Total grafts : 2998

Single hairs : 882

Double hairs : 1790

Triple hairs : 311

Quad hairs : 15

Total Hairs : 5455

Do any HT vets have any thoughts on this? Is it average. So my pics from today. I zoomed in and i think the scabbing is going well. Any thoughts?
