Do transplanted hair mimic original hair placement?

Are transplanted hair placed in a similar fashion to that of the original hair?I could earlier make a   volumised puff on my hairline which might have to do with my wavy hair or with the angles of my original hair. Will the doctor be able to give me similar graft placement so as to make that puff, which I consider the most important feature of my face. We also need to take into account the fact that the density will also be reduced to 40.

Hairs are transplanted at the same angle of native hair, that is of course if you choose a good surgeon. I’ve seen transplants where the hairs are angled improperly, and its a disaster.

But is the texture of donor similar to native hair. I am thinking if my donor is not as wavy, I still would not get that puffy effect in my hairline

The hair from the donor on average is thicker, it should be the exact same, maybe a little puffier.
