Post op FUE 17 days. Does my hair transplant look good/normal?

June 7, 2017
Asked By:user36555 in Dundalk, IE

I got a hairline lowering procedure a few years back but got it repositioned and softened up as it was too low and hairs were too thick around hairline. It's day 17 my scabs are gone and hair is still growing. My only concern is that it looks like the transplanted hairs are kind of separated from my own hairline I got 800 grafts from the lower part of the back of my head for a softer look. How does this look is this normal? Does it look good?
