17 days post op of NeoGraft, I'm shedding many buzzed hairs. Why am I seeing hairs with bulbs on the end? (photos)

neograftsurgery
I had a NeoGraft surgery 17 days ago. I am shedding many (buzzed) hairs. Amongst the shed hairs, I notice ALOT with bulbs on the end. This is just what I see on my pillow case (which I have changed 3 times since the surgery). Why am I seeing hairs with bulbs on the end 17 days after the surgery? I was told that these should be secure by now. What would cause them to be so fragile? If I see bulbs on the end, does this mean that they are failed grafts? please help!
