Senior Member hoose Posted July 8, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted July 8, 2006 Probably a dumb question; can residual gel getting on your grafts from styling your hair affect the growth/yield of a HT. I'm talking after the two week mark. Other than maybe irritation, I was wondering if I could do any damage. To get my hair to style "right", I put gel along my hairline area; residual gel I'm sure gets on the grafted area. I just want some piece of mind. My guess is that it won't hurt anything. I'm 3.5 months post-op and I'm seeing growth, but just want to make sure. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member Rockwell Posted July 9, 2006 Regular Member Share Posted July 9, 2006 I had the same question and I was told that once the stitches were out I was able to hairspray & use gel like I did before the TP. Just make sure you keep your donor area very clean. I would not use hairspray or gel on the donor area till it was fully healed. Rockwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
