I had a HT one year ago and I can feel some small bristles that never seem to grow. Are these pitted grafts by chance?

2nd HT,

That happened to me after my first HT too...hairs never seemed to grow. When I feel back there now, I don't feel the bristles anymore though...I'm honestly not sure if they ever grew out or if they just died. I like to think they grew though. Hopefully you are only seeing a few of these and not many?

It IS possible that new growth can still be happening...and perhaps this is what you are feeling...were you a late bloomer regarding your HT? When did hairs start to grow in for you?

I've not notice short hairs that don't grow, however, after HT#1 I did notice a few new ones coming in right after the 1 year mark. May have been coming out of the rest phase, thicker, and more noticable, I don't know?
