Hi everyone, I had 3000 grafts via Neograft Fue procedure done on October 4th 2017, so I know I am 6 months out and growth is sparse and still thin, I know that I have to wait for a year to see final results and I may continue to grow thicker and more grafts in the coming months but wanted to know if most of you recommend buzzing it down to a 1 or 2 guard or don't touch the top and just trim sides and back? I shaved it down to a 1 guard the first 3-4 months but started to let it grow when i saw the grafts coming in but since its still thin and need toppik to look decent, I was wondering what you guys recommend hairstyle wise at this point?
What hairstyle do you recommend while waiting for FUE hair transplant to grow?

I’m kinda surprised that not one of you guys had a minute to respond to my question after it had 105 views since I posted it. I’m very disappointed, I thought we’re here to help one another and just wanted advice from what other guys did in this situation while waiting for hair to grow and was curious how much shaved it down and how much let it grow from the beginning. Oh well good luck to everyone, guess my question or questions aren’t welcome here. -

I am going to wait for the 12 months mark to see the final results, I noticed in my post op pics that the bald spot in the crown area looked smaller and the grafts looks like it was inserted further back but 7 months later the bald spot in the crown appears larger. It could be that the grafts haven't all grown out yet or it was an illusion. I know that I had a bald spot in crown and they focused majority of the grafts to the hairline and front, but I am hoping that the bald spot decreases in diameter. I am also taking propecia and don't have the money for another procedure and don't want to risk my donor area from looking thin and patchy. It's hard to say for now. I'm curious let me know if you see what I saw regarding the bald spot in crown, did it look smaller in the post op pics or just my imagination lol.Comment

I totally understand how you feel, I thought I would be one and done but after more research and understanding how FUE procedures work, that rarely is possible without overharvesting your precious donor area. My advice to you is wait to see how your results look after 12 months and then assess your donor area and see if it is viable to have a second procedure to fix the crown. How many months out are you from procedure? Do you have any pics to show where your at?Comment
