Transplanted Hair Became Kinky

I had a transplant and the hair that was transplanted became kinky. Does this happen often?

No, change in hair character is not common, but it has been reported to me in about an estimated 1-2% of patients. It rarely gets very kinky, most of the time it just becomes more wavy. One patient that I do remember did get a kinky change to his hair after both transplants sessions. He loved it- his hair had never had any character before, so this was a most happy change for him.
