Hair grows about 1/2" per month.  So you can get back to a #1 buzz cut (1/8") in about a week and a #2 (1/4") in two weeks.

There's nothing wrong w/ a shadow line, but a scar--that's in another and bigger league.  Transplants leave scars like all other surgery.  I'd even say do Hairclub before surgery, but shave first--it will grow back.  As you can see from my current avatar, I've got a pronounced shadow and it troubled me for a while.  Now it's my sign to the world that I'm in control. 
Re: Cancer, do like a guy on this forum said about 14 months ago when I raised that concern after shaving, "Tell them, 'No, Libra (or enter your sign) actually, what's your sign?"  It works unless you're born in July1!

My vote is to shave it.  The hair plugs are awful.  Last July, I went to have eyebrows implanted.  Guess what, I have a unibrow,
but on one side.  The other one is very sparce.  On down lower, I now have a scar behind my ear.  A B----- to shave.  Shave and be happy!  Listen to someone who knows.  Thank God I didn't try to do the scalp!

What happened to your eyebrows?  Did they just thin out and disappear?
