    What happen if i pull out new hair growing?

    Hi guys...i ve been reading u since long time but this is my first post here cause i'am a bit worried.. 3 and half months ago i had a fue on my scar..In order to keep the scar clean and let the hair grow once a week i use oil to remove some dead skin with a little comb..i ve already some regrowth and sometimes some skin falls off with some new hair on it..Now..if by mystake i pull out some new hair that is growing do u think the'll regrow or not?

    Cheers guys

    Normal grooming and subsequent removal of the hair shafts should not affect the regrowth of new hair.

    That being said, if you are forcibly removing the hair shafts causing tension in the pulling, yes that can affect new growth or cause what is known as traction alopecia.

    Individuals who braid their hair with a tight or high tensioned braids over longer periods of time can induce traction alopecia.

      Thanks a lot for the reply!!!So..even if a new little hair that is growing at 3 months post fue falls out,it will regrowth again as long as someone doesn't remove it forcibly?Usually i don't use force,that's why i apply baby oil some hours before removing dead skin..but how could someone know if a new hair growing has been damaged???

      Cheers
