Scabbing phase

I am a mere one week into a Crown HT. Following instructions including washing routine. The area is scabbing now but when a scab falls off it often has a tiny hair in it which I assume is the the transplanted hair. Should I be concerned?

Thanks- it‘s a scab with a hair protruding from it or a hair surrounded by the shedding skin:

Looks like a dead graft that has fell out which is quite normal.

Pictures are blurry but it does look like discarded/shed grafts with dead tissue/scab attached.

Or a very, very small rat with a long tail :)
I did spot the rat too. Maybe he’s the one stealing my hairs. The scabs seem to have gone now and about half were attached to small fine hairs. Hmmm hope it’s part or normal shedding pattern.

It could have been Banksy at work on your scalp while you were sleeping.
