2 months post Mohs on scalp I am still totally bald where I was shaved for surgery. Will it grow back? Can I use scalp dye?

I had Mohs on my scalp 2 months ago. The surgeon stitched the excision without the need for a skin graft. However I am still totally bald in the place he shaved for the surgery. I thought it would grow back normally but there is no sign of this happening. Is this normal and if so has anyone used scalp dye to make their scalp less obvious? Thanks
