Occipital Hairline: A forgotten area

It is formed by the posterior 1 cm of hair which are placed on the vertex or crown and constitute the part which is normally hidden by the long hair. Many surgeons while creating the slits in the recipient area forget this equally important point. And make the slits in the lines. As the care is taken while creating the slits in the anterior hairline, the same enthusiasm is required throughout the procedure especially the posterior part of the recipient area.
