geek_brain23 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Hi there. Three weeks ago I had a hair transplant. And now a shock loss of the transplanted hair has begun. I understand this is part of the recovery process, but one thing worries me. Most of the hair that falls out has a regular, straight shape. But some have a rounded or curved shape at the end (photo attached). Should I be concerned about this? Does this indicates damage to the follicle or something else?
