    You only include one photo, but looking at it I don't see any sign of redness and it doesn't look especially wide. As scars go, I've seen worse. Could you try to take more photos in good light, maybe with some help holding the camera?

    Six weeks is still soon after the procedure so any problems arising from the scar still have lots of time to improve. It's possible that you have some shockloss, which is when the hair surrounding the scar is (usually temporarily) shed due to the trauma of the surgery. I can't say whether you have experienced this, but it's one possible factor that could be contributing to your worries.

    Like Joe said, as a female with long hair, you are in the fortunate position of being able to hide the scar. I don't see why you'd want to shave your head as that wouldn't help with the pain and of course would mean you can't hide the scar at all.

    I'd be interested to know where the hair was transplanted to. I'm guessing you wanted to lower your hairline. Am I right?
