    Default Anyone Here Ever Shave Their Head Years After a FUT Hair Transplant?

    Hi, everyone. I had a FUT hair transplant back around 2007. All was good until about a year ago when a lot of hair on the frontal area of my head fell out.

    I'm considering shaving my head completely using a razor. I was wondering if anyone has done this and if so, does their FUT transplant scar show when the head is completely bald?

    I know if I buzz cut my hair short the scar would show (as there's no hair growing from the scar strip) but wondered if the scar would show if a close shave using a razor was utilized. Many thanks.

    Can you post pics ?

    'Im going to say that a scar is a scar . If you can see it while buzzed you're probably going to see when shaved . It all depends on ho wide and noticeable it will be and if you can live with it

    You will see it. A skillfully performed FUT scar will be quite fine, but still visible. Some form of SMP into the scar can disguise it very well.
