Default New hair falls out easily after Chiari decompression...is this normal?

My girlfriend had the decompression surgery three weeks ago and she now has hair growing back but she can pull it out very easily (the closer to the scar the easier it comes out, an inch or more away is in much tighter). To anyone that has had the surgery or knows someone who has, is this at all normal or common and if so will it get better or does she need to talk to the doctor. She's reluctant to mention it right away at her one month meeting with her doctor but I think it's important to bring it up just in case it's not normal. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
