The first picture is extremely blurred and it is impossible to tell what it is! The second does not give me any picture at all..

You need to take the paratheses off of the end of the second link. It does not belong and it makes the page default to the imageshack home.

 

Also, both of those pictures are *blurry* shots of *single* hairs *removed* from your head. People here love to provide feedback, but you are going to have to do WAY better than those pictures. They are frankly 100% useless. You need to take pictures of the questionable hair on your HEAD if you want feedback.

SOmetimes with new HT the corse of the hair will change-- use good conditioner and shampoo daily-- 18-24 months will be more smooth and less curly (unless u have curly hair in donor area)

hi guys. I'm really sorry for the pics, my camera must have a serious problem.

I've got straight hair and with the exception of these hair in the edge of my hairline, all the transplanted ones grow "naturally", I think.

Those hair were not "removed", they were cut off, I assure you they had the same texture when they were in my head too ;p

However, I've tried some more shoots and will post them in a while. thank you all

 

ps: smoothy what do you mean by "with new HT"?

fortunately there aren't many hair like that in my scalp, but what concerns me is that in some specific spots these hair continue to grow really rough and peculiarly curly, after almost 14 months.

My hair was course and all willy nilly for about the first 7-8 months before it started consistently softening and so forth. What is the hair like in the donor where it came from? This is one thing to kind of consider, because naturally the front hairline of many is kind of thin and whispy as the hairline recedes. But of course after an HT, the hair is not thin and whispy, but strong. My hairline does look a little stronger post HT, because it's not that baby fine hair anymore. The transplanted hair is even a little darker than the original hair for me (although theres not really ANY original hair in my line anymore...). 13 months is a long time. Hopefully it will settle down. It should eventually match the characteristics of the donor area where it came from, whatever they may be.

neither I have any original hair in my line anymore. the hair in the donor area is straight.

this is really confusing because i can't get a straight answer from my doc. not even a plain answer. duh :\
