Senior Member hairbank Posted May 11, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted May 11, 2006 You're experiencing shock loss around the donor site which is common. Usually, it starts growing back anywhere from 4 weeks - 4 months after the HT. Give it a little time.

Senior Member hairbank Posted March 19, 2007 Senior Member Share Posted March 19, 2007 rodfl- Just pointing out the "Posted" date to you in the upper left corner of each post. It's likely PCC isn't posting here anymore since the thread is near one year old.
