Thinning around Strip scar???

[CollegeStudent1]

Hi all,

I just read everything in this thread above and it sounds like what I'm experiencing. "Hat head" is exactly how I'd describe it, except a little more problematic is it cuts off and outlines exactly where my scar is, which does not always look as natural (can vary depending on bedhead, showers, etc).

It sounds like it must be the shock loss you guys have described. The lack of hair is so clearly right around my scar that I recently asked someone if it could be because they shaved my head for the incision, which then I was corrected as my head was not shaved at all.

Is there any way to mask this? I've tried hair thickening fibers to not much avail. Was wondering if possibly a hair cut (with me telling the barber the goal is to mask the area around the scar) could hide it? Might be worth noting I also naturally have very light and thin hair so my scar has the potential to be more noticeable than others through my hair.

Any ideas and/or responses are very appreciated.

Thanks!
