Transplanted hair is now darker, coarse, thick and frizzy. (photo)

Asked By:Grinchie21 in Kongiganak, AK

Hi there I'm writing to get some answers and possibly some recommendation on what I can do now as it's been over 2 years since my HT and my hair is not like my natural hair at all. It is much thicker, darker and the texture is so rough and kinky. My natural hair is soft but this looks like pubic hair even. I already went to my doctor and he said that the new hair is ' healthier ' than my own, which I don't think so as it awful. Please let me know what I can do to fix this!
