Is it normal to see my scalp through wet hair? (Photos)

Polite972844Dec 13, 2020

Hello. I had really long hair for few years and recently I just made them lot shorter. When I first took shower with them I started to freak out. I am not used to see so much skin. Is it ok and earlier I didn't saw my scalp because of long laying hair or should I do something with it and see dermatologist or someone like that. You can see my wet and dry hair on photos.
