I have recently noticed at least 4-5 hairs in the bath after a shower is this normal???? especialy when I run my fingers through my scalp, when wet.

 

Does transplanted have the same characteristics as normal hair after a H/T op, i,e strength in follicles attaching to scalp or are they some what weaker????. I am a little worried any replys welcome.

 

Thanks

Like I explained to Bill,its not comming out in clumps. I have only recently noticed the odd few hairs 3-4 on combing or washing. The suprising thing is I was about a 6 on the Norwood scale with hardly any hair on my scalp. I am aware that 1st H/T can suffer from shock but not as much as the native hair. Maybe it its been happening for a while and ive only realised now at 3 months post op.
