    Default Should I Use Nape Hair For My Hairline? [pics]

    Hi friends,

    I got a hair transplant some 11 months ago (~1750 grafts, hairline), and I am overall satisfied with the result though it's - in my opinion - a little bit pluggy in the front (see attached pictures). You're welcome to let me know your opinion.

    For that reason, I am going to get one more hair transplant next year to have the hairline more dense and to add grafts to my thinning crown. I asked my hair surgeon if he could use hair from my nape, just for adding density to the hairline, in order for it to look more natural as I know other doctors do this. He said that he had never done it before because it's not 100% safe to use (not resistant to DHT). So he said that it ultimately would be my call.

    Questions is: Has anyone of you had a procedure done with nape hair? If so, I hope you can clarify to me the following:

    1) How is it progressing with your hair where nape hair has been used? Has some of it felt out yet? Would love to see pics.
    2) I wear my hair in a bun - would noticeable there be noticeable white spots where my nape hair has been extracted from?


    Of course, if you know anyone else who have had nape hair transplanted, I'd also love if you could refer me to that person. Thanks a lot, looking forward to your responses!

    FYI: Have also posted the question on another hair site, but I'd like opinions from as many as possible of course
