If you take a week off work that will be enough time. Like the other person said who cares what other people think. Also my scabs were off in 5 days because I swam in the ocean every day. Salt water makes the scabs fall off quicker and is a great healing agent. If you can't get to the ocean soak it a couple times a day in water. Good luck.

Tessler, M.D.- The Techniques, and he suggested soaking your head twice a day. I did that and it worked. My scabbing was really very minimal. I also sprayed twice daily with a solution of hydrogen peroxide and water(half and half). This kept it clean. My doctor told me to do this. Everything was find after about 8 days, at ten days I threw my had away. I really could of done it earlier. People really don't care. The only really bad part is the first 3 or 4 days then all starts to heal. Don't worry just do it and it will be over very fast. Do it for you and don't care what other people think, they want remember later and they will probably respect you more for seeking self improvement for youself!

Pour a spray bottle almost competely full and put about 2 tablespoons of epsom salt and shake. Spray this on your head 3 times a day about a 1/2 before you bathe or get your hair wet. I've done this after both my FU procedures and all scabs were gone within 7 days. Never Forget - It's what radiates from within, not from your skin, that really matters!
