There is no "normal" hairline.  Everyone has a unique hairline and some even have cowlicks.  If you feel you are losing hair, see a doctor for an examination.

These white areas reflect the absorption of water by the skin of the grafts. You will note that after it dries, these white areas disappear

Thanks for the question. Based on your photos, the 4000-6000 grafts might be good option for you, but it would be wrong to say something for sure. You should see a board certified surgeon. You can then plan the process together and discuss the results. I wish you all the best.
