This happens but usually it is only a mild more wavy appearance. Some people will develop curly or even kinky hair after a transplant.

gauravn321,Sounds like you are complaining about the transplanted hair growing wiry and curly? This occasionally occurs to one or two hairs. It most likely results from having the graft planted to twist in the site or bend over itself, this will cause it to grow kinked, wiry or curly. This may only be temporary, and improve with time.
