Why is it a bad idea to create a low hairline with a transplant?

[Konsole93]

Your hairline is already proportionately too deep.

In addition, your density is not sufficient, I would rather condense the old approach.

Yes I'm going to add more density too deep you mean already too low?

[Eli_Avdikian]

it's kind of low already. Your priority should be adding more density to the frontal third

Ideally how low should the hairline be placed on me?

Your hair transplant should take exact measurements of your forehead and facial dimensions and decide what's best for you

My hairline is 5.9 cm it's a bit lower then my other thirds I think

If im being honest it doesn’t look too natural. It looks too straight no micro-irregularities or macro-irregularities. The priority should be getting the hairline to look natural. Also, are you combing your hair upwards or is that the angle the hairs exit on your scalp?

My hairline sticks straight out cuz I'm asian do you mean my hairline on the side should be more receded?

I don’t think being asian changes how hair exits the scalp. It should exit the scalp at an angle. I want to be as sensitive as possible because I know this is a difficult subject. But I want to be honest with you, so you don’t make a mistake. 

It should exit the scalp at an angle, not straight up.

 

I think it needs to be refined and possibly repositioned. 
 

Do you see how his hairline is low but not completely straight, it has irregularities and curves.

You should consult with @Dr.Ratchathorn Panchaprate she has some incredible results, specifically with asian hairlines. She’s reasonably affordable too.

Why are you asking this having already had a HT? You should know the answer to this prior to having any surgery. You’re indicating quite clearly that you haven’t done any proper research. 
 

Being honest with you, your current hairline doesn’t look very natural. Arguably too low (though this depends on your frontalis muscle), too linear, a little pluggy and low density. 
 

Which surgeon did this work?

Dr saltzburg she's not on the recommended form list

Your hairline right now does not look natural and terrible. Lowering it more will make it look worst.

Phillyman1996, want to give you my honest opinion. I think you suffer from BDD and need to see a psychiatrist rather than a hair transplant doctor.  I am not saying this in a condescending manner but basing these off the threads you have made and the photos you have posted.

What makes my transplant look terrible?

“Terrible” might be too strong of a word, but I’ve literally just listed the reasons thing don’t look very natural. 

[Hairy Henderson]

No.

[Gatsby]

At less than 6cm’s from the glabella you certainly do not want to lower your hairline. You want a mature hairline you can grow into , not out of, as you get older.

Would you consider the hairline they drew on me a juvenile hairline?
