That could be completely normal and it is part of a normal hair growth cycle. This will stop progressively in the next 2 months. If not a check will be needed. Please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation (where you can post pictures ) if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
