Senior Member southbeacharchi Posted August 22, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2011 i've been looking through many many many posts for days. maybe i am doing it the wrong way. can anyone teach me how, or refer me to any specific posts with examples of short haircuts in the back showing the strip scar...ranging from shortly post-op to later after healing? thanks so much My Hair Loss Web Site FUT - 8/12/11 - Dr. Keller - Chicago - 3140 grafts 365 singles, 375 doubles, & 2400 multiple hair grafts Disclaimer: I am not a doctor or a professional within the hair transplant field, but I am one hell of a researcher and have been dubbed "master googler" by people that know me.

Senior Member scar5 Posted August 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2011 This isn't a pic, so sorry I'm not much help, but just a reminder that close up pics (and vids) are deceiving - especially those less than a foot away, which shows a comb gradually passing over the scar allowing the hair to shingle down. Here you don't see the effect of the uneven surface of the skin around the strip scar. You are simply too close. Try for pics, in vicious and kind lighting conditions, at least one foot away, both back and side, to see the effect. Sorry it's not much help.

Senior Member southbeacharchi Posted August 24, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2011 and thank you orangehair. there was one or two examples of strip scars with short hair. but most of those were the typical you see with the long hair and the comb holding it up, which for me is hard to really tell. i am trying to see how short I am going to be able to wear it in the future, even though that is a VERY long ways away. lol. but thanks much for those examples. i appreciate it.

I have been browsing that section, but like I said, I was having trouble finding short haircuts soon after post-op and long-term. Thought it might be easier to throw a thread out there.
