I had a hair transplant done 8 months ago and I must say so far I am very happy with the results, but my only concern is were my temples were transplanted the texture is still very odd as if its like my beard hair, it is very brittle, dark and kinky if you understand what I mean. They did use my beard as well as my donor hair so I did mention if only my beard hairs were used on my temples, but I was told they mixed it and not to worry and that after a few more cycles the temples will blend in?

Answer: Follicle differentiation There are over 20 different hair types of the human body. They are all structured and behave differently i.e. eye lashes do not need to be trimmed but we have to cut our hair often. The texture of the hairs that were implanted into your temple area from the beard or the back of your scalp are very different than the hairs of the temple. Originally mesenchymal follicles are all the same. In the process of development under influence of growth and stimulating factors dependant on anatomical position on the body they grow to be different types or lines which needs to be served as needed for our body. So, if mature follicle is transferred from one part of the body to another it will appear and respond differently.

Answer: Beard hair The use of beard hair on the frontal hairline will cause a more kinky hair because it will take on the beard characteristics
