I’m just wondering how long after a transplant can I shave my head? My hairline is fairly uneven, and I want to conceal the asymmetry by doing some shaping (the doctor didn’t seem to help this problem). How long after a surgery do I have to wait to do this?
Also, I had some scabs rub off in the middle of the night while sleeping at about 6 days post op. I woke up, and had half the scabs I had before bed. What are the chances that I have damaged the grafts?
You can easily shave your head once the scabs are gone. At 6 days, some people have the scabs normally fall out so I would doubt that you lost hair grafts unless you scratched them at night while you slept.
