Is taking hair using FUE from the body to transplant into beard a good idea?

charles_cosmetic
I have some empty spots in my beard, but it's not too much. I would say 5 to 10 centimeters squared. However, I am not comfortable taking that hair from the back of my head, especially that I keep my hair short there. Are there any recommendations for less visible donor sites?
