What should happen if you switch your hair follicles from the reciving area to your donor area?
Is there no possibility that the hair from the reciving area would also be coded over time so it does not fall off like the rest of the hair follicles on the donor area?

You mean a normal hair transplantation? :)
Not doesn't get coded over time, but still gets somehow affected but much less

I think you mean taking hair from the balding area (miniaturized hair ) ,and transplant to to the healthy area.

Actually there was someone I believe who who took a follicle from the crown and implanted it on his arm and it still miniaturized does someone remember his name I think his wife was involved?

Nordstrom was the one who did that:

"Synchronous Balding of Scalp and Hair-bearing Grafts of Scalp Transplanted to the Skin of the Arm in Male Pattern Baldness", Rolf E. A. Nordstrom, Acta Derm Venereol 1979; 59: 266-268.

What you mean is Dr. Jahoda. But he did something entirely different. He took out the dermal sheath of his own hair follicles and implanted these cells in his wife his forearm and new hair follicles grew.
