How strong is a regular hair compared to a transplanted hair?

CliffLee
Curious as to the strength of a transplanted hair versus a natural hair. Lets say, a transplanted hair 1.5 years post the hair transplant surgery. If the transplanted hair was tugged on, would it be as strong as a normal hair, or is the transplanted hair always weaker then a native hair?
