@Calihome1,

I understand what you’re saying however, A lot of people are under the misconception that a hairline starts with a wall of dense hair.

If you look at the front of any natural hairline, density is always gradual and the hairline starts with single hairs.  The hairline is staggered and uses the feathering effect just as it appears in nature.   And because this is a close-up of one side of the hairline, these effects are more obvious.

But for the record, the density values are above… and here they are again 

Recipient Graft Density: 45
Recipient Hair Density: 109

I hope this helps.

@Calihome1,

I happen to agree with you that in that one picture, it looks a little thinner...but still very natural.   But even the thickest hair densities will look thinner at some angles and under some lighting conditions.  As you can see, his hairline is very natural and it certainly is very dense which shows at every other angle.  But thank you for your opinion.

Best wishes,
