A WOMAN who flew out to Turkey to get a hair transplant has revealed the clever ways she hides her recovery process, but trolls have warned that she's making a mistake.
Tracy unveiled her new hair line before it had all grown back in a short, 35-second TikTok clip which she titled: “How I hide my hair transplant surgery recovery”.
She then shared a snap of the top of her head, which appeared to be taken right after her surgery, and one showing a large area where follicles were taken for the transplant.
In one photo following the procedure, Tracy could be seen wearing a beige, dark blue and maroon-coloured headscarf, covering the area.
A second snap showed her wearing a furry aviator hat, while a third saw her wearing a pink headband.
In another picture, she could be seen wearing a similar black headband, while a fourth saw her in a black cap.

While Tracy, who said she paid £2,600 for the surgery at Get More Hair in Istanbul, Turkey, appeared more than pleased with her clever hack, some were worried by her methods.
One person wrote: “You are very wrong, you should not wear a hat or a hat for 4 months after hair transplantation.” [sic]
Someone leapt to her defence before she had a chance to though as another viewer replied: “4 months is exaggerated, during 2 weeks, or if you absolutely need, every 30 minutes I had to remove it.” [sic]
Another person questioned: “How’s hair supposed to grow of you cover it so much”. [sic]

She then posted a second clip to answer one viewer’s question on why she hides the transplant on a “daily” basis, only to show the results on social media.
The TikTok user explained that she actually doesn’t cover her hair every day and has only used a headscarf and other methods to hide it a “handful of times”.
“I only covered my hair with a loose head scarf a handful of times after surgery during the scabbing phase, my entire healing journey from surgery I have left my hair uncovered online and in public”.
In a third video, Tracy spoke about why she went through with the surgery, explaining that she tried everything from wigs to hair extensions to hide her thinning hair, but all of this “damaged my natural hair and felt uncomfortable on my sensitive scalp”.
“This is nothing more than a temporary haircut and the incredible results last a lifetime,” she continued.
She went on: “I had pain relief throughout the procedure and felt nothing. My bruising and swelling will pass in a few more days and once healed my surgery is entirely undetectable”.
