What does a hair graft look like? Am I losing grafts after an FUE hair transplant? (photo)

Asked By:iz4M2202 in Calgary, AB

It is Day 21 today since my FUE hair transplant surgery. Over the last few days, I see these types of hair fall now. They seem to have a root that is bent at the bottom. I am aware there that hair shedding is expected. However, can someone tell me if these are grafts attached to the hair at the bottom? I'm concerned I'm losing my grafts.
