It's my 9th day since the transplant and some hairs have fallen out with the scabs...when I showered and gently rubbed my head to help slough off the crusts more hairs in the crusts fell out. I know you typically shed your hair but is it normal for it to happen prior to the 14 days? Did these hairs not take, did I rub too hard? Just simply curious. Thank you!

Answer: Hair falling out day 9 For the first two weeks, it's important to be careful with washing to avoid irritating the scabs. If an entire scab with a follicle is pulled out, it may not grow back. After two weeks they are generally well seeded and you can generally shower normally.

Answer: Shedding These hairs will sooner or later shed. They are never a problem for new hairs that start to grow. Usually, there is a lag time between the time the hairs shed (2-8 weeks) and the time the new hair grows (3-8 months). IF for any reason, there is an overlap between the two, pay no attention to it for when the new hair grows, the old hairs from the grafts that may persist beyond 8 weeks, will eventually shed
