In female hair transplantation, donor sites can be managed by shaving a small horizontal strip or by trimming only one out of every 10-20 hairs.

“there's a couple of ways to approach the donor area in women that would be like shaving a tiny little stripe so a little horizontal area where we're gonna take the individual follicles from right cuz we're not going to cut a strip we're gonna take the individual follicles that way or we may trim a couple of hairs here or let's say one out of every 10 or 20 hairs and then go after those hair follicles the next day so there's no shaving whatsoever”

“if you want to do a large session on a man you can say to most guys hey can we you know give you a pretty short haircut and they'll be like yeah okay no problem I mean I love that haircut but I'll do it for women that's not really gonna work so if you need to move a lot of hair for a female patient it needs to be done in steps and stages”
