Hair transplant in sunlight

[NAVI]

Is hair transplant a see through in sun light. I mean would people know that I have a hair transplant if I go in sunlight?

This depends on your actual condition and your HT result/ density. Each person can have different final results depending on his original hair loss condition and the number of grafts he received. Light will always reflect off the scalp even with the slightest gaps. It should not show that it is transplanted but it may well show less dense than your donor for example in extreme light conditions.

I have kinda beaten this topic up in many of my posts😆. But hey, someone has to talk about the elephant in the room! After looking at videos on YouTube before my procedure I never took in account how much light does affect for what you actually see in the mirror and how self conscious it can make one feel.

Bright light of any description is my mortal enemy. I try and stay away from it, which sounds ridiculous but it’s true.

If the work is good, it will just look like you're thinning.  Same thing happens when you go swimming, particularly if there is a lot of contrast between the color of the hair and of the skin.  

If the work is bad, I don't care if you are under a bright light or not.  It will still look like a transplant.

One last thing, and while this was not your question, you did prompt me to write about it.  Avoid sunlight right after a transplant.  You can freckle permanently.  Sunblock and a cap are essential.
