I had my HT (1034) 3 weeks ago. I still had some hair up front but the crown was gone. I comb my hair straight back, so once the scabs came off no one could notice any change. When I go back for HT #2 (1250), we will work on the crown and I will let the new graphs grow out a bit to further mask that I had anything done. After 10 days, I left the hat at home and no one knew what I did. If I had started with the crown, it would have been more obvious. Again, I am not doing mega sessions like some of these guys, which is great, but I don't have the donor supply. That is why I started in front, vanity. BTW, I am at day 22 and over 90% of the recipient area is still hangin around. This is only my opinion though.
