Transplanting Hair from the Back of the Neck

Does the procedures available to transplant hair from along the back of your neck to where you are balding actually work as well as stay in for the duration of your life?

Neck hair is not permanent like the hair of the scalp donor area (the fringe shown in the picture). Transplanting neck hair is not difficult, but if it gets lost over time, it would be a waste. Strip surgery on the neck (used for strip harvesting) tends to produce some of the worst scars seen in transplant surgery.
