Yes!!!! Thats exactly whats going on with my head right now.

I have a lot of hairs growing on my left side of the scalp, but considerably less on the right side.

This is normal.  Somebody even wrote a thread on this phenomenon:

Shedding of the grafts will start to occur approx 1 week after your ht had been done. With the scabbing shown it’s difficult to tell. Have you got any pics from the ht day itself ? Thanks 😊 

Im after 7 days

It is all normal. Even the cracking which you show is normal and happens. For now follow the after care the clinic provided as the next stage will be removal of the scabs. 

I'm a little afraid that there are no hairs between the scabs, and less from one place, but since everyone says it's normal, maybe it grows as it should later

Where did tou pick that clinic?

i suppose it is a low cost clinic and i suppose you didn’t get 4100z

The Polish office is organizing, I went there because one man is doing great transplants, I have 4100 densely placed and a nest in the back. in Turkey it is generally cheap, there is no need to overpay

After a week, all you can do is wait. That said, I disagree 100% with the notion “no need to overpay” if this was a television or even a car, yes. But this is your head and your health, you never go cheap on that.

It looks to me like any "unevenness" you're seeing is from one side simply scabbing more than the other, which isn't anything to be alarmed about. As Melvin said, at this point, all you can do is wait it out. It's definitely going to look worse before it looks better, and that's just the nature of the HT. And try not to overanalyze it too much or you'll just drive yourself crazy. As long as you did your due diligence and research and made a well-informed decision on who to go with, then the best thing you can do now is trust in that and patiently wait for results to start coming through - but that's going to be a quite a few months down the road.
