How does my hair look 9 months after FUE? (photo)

Van CityNov 8, 2017
I have followed all of my Doctors orders. I’ve been taking 1.25 mg finasteride + 5mg biotin + multi vitamin EVERY DAY. And wash my hair 2 times a week with the shampoo they provided me. Will my hair keep getting thicker with time ? A doctor in Canada said not many new hairs will come out after 9 months. Some of my hair is curly and really thin hair. Also some of the hair strands start of straight then after an inch the hair bends to the right or left. It’s weird.
