    Default HST Donor Question?

    Hi all

    It's now a week after my 2nd HST and I wanted to ask a question about donor regeneration.

    When I washed my hair and put shampoo on the donor area there were a LOT of hairs in my hands that looked like grafts...

    Has anybody else experienced this?

    These aren't failed extractions coming out are they?

    They looked like the drilled grafts as they have the dry cylinder of skin around them...

    There were loads of these...

    I didn't have that happen. You may want to e-mail the clinic. Also, have a camera ready next time you wash your hair in case it happens again.

    I'll email hasci in the new year as I don't want to disturb their holidays.

    I kept a few of them when I washed my hair this morning, if you zoom in you'll see some of the skin I was talking about.

    Yeah, I agree, e-mail them now.
    Having said that, those look more like hairs with scab attached. Although I can't see from the picture perfectly, they look like what I had in weeks 1-2 post-op, which were just the shed hairs with clumps of blood, dried fluid from the wounds and other detritus.

    Did you get these coming out of tour donor?

    I'd rather just wait to email them as it's not urgent and I'd be annoyed if anyone emailed me about work at this time of year.

    Dude, you're their client. You just paid what, $8-10K for that procedure? If they're busy, they'll wait to e-mail back anyways.

    Yeah, I guess you're right.

    Did you find these in your donor?
