Asked By:sslondon in London, GB

Hi, I have a query that I hope someone will be able to help with. I'm 4 weeks post-op FUE and have noticed a number of hairs in grafts that were transplanted have not shed or grown. They basically look the same length as the day they were implanted. Is this normal? Other hair has either shed or grown. Thanks in advance.
