Post FUE transplant Hair styles?

Question

I seem to notice every guy who has had a transplant seems to have the same hair style with all the hair swept back.. is this due to direction or grafts? Or is it choice? Can you style your hair to the side or wear it down for example

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

Many people may have their hair combed back since it looks the best with the least amount of hairs.  With more hair focused on the hair line and less hair focused on the top, combing the hair back covers up the thinning.  The direction of grafts is not a factor in personal hair style choice unless an error was made by the doctor.

Sean Behnam, MD · Answer

After a transplant you're free to style your hair however you like, as long as you stay away from gels, sprays, etc. for the first two weeks. People often have similar styles following their transplant simply become the head needs to be shaved down.

Thank you for asking this question.
Yes, the direction, density and the depth of the incision for the graft to be planted is made by the Plastic surgeon. Therefore, it absolutely depends on the surgeon which direction does he gives while hair-transplantation. Majority of the people try to sweep the hair backwards to hide the progression of the existing hair-loss and others as a style statement. The best way to style the hair is on either sides as it over laps on each other and gives an impression of a dense hair. 
  
Good luck!

Once your FUE has grown in, you can style your hair anyway you wish. Many men like to show off their new hair by combing it back
