Thank you, I'm glad that my experience has been good too. I think it's very clear in my sentence that I am not suggesting everyone else will have a good/similar experience to mine. I was speaking of my own experience.

Good point! I used a box of hair dye and rinsed it off 4 or so minutes earlier than recommended.

I've taken finesteride for 11 + years and never had a single side effect. Ever. In fact, my sex drive has only increased over the years.

Thank you so much @ciaus This is very reassuring to hear during my mini freak out! 😁 I still think I'll take it a little bit easier next time and stick to a colour depositing conditioner, and then look at more natural options.

Not in my case, as my skin is very, very fair... so basically, I look balder. On the plus side, the darker brown definitely looks better but I'm worried I've messed everything up after doing so well 😭

Argh! As per the title, I dyed my hair (transplanted area and donor) at 26 days (today). The technician said that after 2 weeks was fine and my Doctor recommended 1 month. Pre-hair transplant, I colour my hair every 3 weeks. My hair is 95% grey on the sides so I have constantly been wearing a hat, avoiding friends/family and the gym since my surgery. It was looking so bad compared to my usual dark brown colour, and I really wanted to head back to the gym. I thought 2 days early shouldn't make a big difference, and wasn't really thinking properly. Plus all of my scabs have healed and I've been washing my hair as per usual. I have done so well to sleep upright, apply treatments, avoid any bumps, etc. But now I've been googling and wondering if I have messed up and jeopardised my entire hair transplant. Did I mess up? I'll definitely be delaying the next colour treatment, that's for sure 😪
