What are the white bulb like things on my transplanted eyebrow after contact with water?

Thaigerman1990
Please advise , I am 4 days post op for a eyebrow transplant. My donor site is fine , however my eyebrow itself , after contact with water looks very strange, as if the hair follicles were popping out of my brows. Yes it goes away after drying but when I pat may eyebrows dry some off them fall off or get stuck on the paper I'm using to dry. Please advise if this is normal have my grafts come out or am I safe ? When will this stop as it is not appealing at all.
