Ok. Im 26 days post op. I want to know if its ok to shape up my hairline. As in cut it with a razor to get straight line. The implants are on my hairline so im wondering if that will affect the transplanted hairs in anyway. Like slow the grow or no hair growing from that area.

Goldstar,

Because the grafts are firmly in place, you can do basically whatever you want however, why would you want to reshape your hairline? Are you unhappy with the way things are placed? Personally, I wouldn't bother shaving any grafted hairs at 26 days, because they are on the verge of shedding anyway.

the purpose of me getting the transplant was to restore my hairline but really the temporal areas. I like my transplanted hairline but its shedding in my temporal area. Thats why I want to know if its ok to cut my hairline into a straight line because the corners are more like a C. Get me or am I explaining it wrong? So ur saying at day 26 it wouldnt matter even if i shaved my whole head bald? It wont affect the transplanted hairs right?

Goldstar,

As Falc stated...

.. including buzzing/shaving them down if there are any there. You could even pull them out with tweezers and they would still come back.
