Shock loss of previously transplanted hair?

[Condor]

Dear Dr. Glenn: Thanks, this encourages me a lot, as does Silver Surfer's response. It's just so strange that I never experienced shock loss in my previous HT. And it is indeed in the hairline area, which looks pretty bad these days.

And since I have to return in front of the camera in a couple of months, I'm nervous. No amount of Toppik can make it look natural so far, and trust me, I could write a book; OK, maybe not a book, but a pamphlet, or a video, on how to apply Toppik. I use three shades, and prior to my last HT, it was absolutely undetectable. Now, if I try to camouflage the sparseness, it looks like I have a ton of powder sitting on my scalp, not so hot, especially in daylight.

I hope I made the right decision in this last HT. I'm pretty sure I did.Time will tell. I wish I could fast forward to that time!

Thanks so much, I am grateful I joined this forum.
