Random isolated hairs in temples and below hairline

Does anyone else get these? I assume these are located where my hairline was once, I suspect possibly juvenile hairline stragglers that somehow got revived while their surrounding follicular sisters were too far gone. If so, what do you do with these? Pluck them? Shave them? Leave them be? I've noticed more of these since beginning 10% minoxidil back in June... Curious if upping to 15% minoxidil would reawaken more dormant follicles...

Follicular brothers, not sisters. Yes I have these. Shave them down every few days. These hairs I love, they are courageous, my navy seals.

Never even considered the former as a possibility. My hair transplant specialist didn't say I had receded any more, though I'm beginning to suspect his analysis may have been a bit on the less attentive side... Hopefully it's the latter... I'll give minoxidil 15% a shot...

Yeah I have them too!, they are thick and dark. About half inch or so below the hairline, more on my right temple, don't know when they pop up, but i guess is due to the minoxidil, even tho i haven't used rogaine for 3 years they've stayed in great shape, and as WP said I love these ones, very resilient and can take lot of abuse, who knows they might be dht resistant. I keep hair short, so they stay same length as the rest.

I've been using 5% for about 18 months and 10% for an additional 4 months. I got mine from minoxidilmax.com
