    Hello, hope the folliculitis subsides and you have a great result. But the first thing you should do IMO is stop shaving any part of the head, for the time being.

    (I know it's my first post here but felt like this needed to be said)

    I appreciate the comment! Can you point me towards the sources that support your recommendation? My folliculitis has fortunately subsided dramatically after going on antibiotics and washing the recipient area 2x a day with anti-bacterial soap. During this time I have continued to buzz my head down to a 0 guard :).

    Thanks 🙏 I’ve used fin and min 3 years before my transplant for 8 months  and I was a hyper responder and got a full head of hair back until I stopped using it, so that could also be why for the time frame it looks pretty good. 

    Good point! I’ve been on fin/min for a new kk the now myself. I don’t ever intend on going off haha.

    Day 78. Hoping I’m through the worst of it and excited about growth hopefully exploding soon… Right side of my head is showing faster progress at the moment.

    I’m on day 75 myself and looking nowhere near as good as you so stay positive! I’m sure growth is right around the corner for ya.

    Did you get any reason why you got folliculitis? 

    I did not. I know one of Buchwach's other patients that I've been chatting with on Reddit also got it. When I initially called in to discuss medical therapy for it he also said he had been helping a few other patients with the same problem that week as well.
