Senior Member the B spot Posted February 20, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted February 20, 2006 I would wait a good 2 maybe even 3 weeks. Why? Simply because you just spent thousands of dollars on this!!!!! I have heard of guys washing their hair in the sink for 3 months, and won't hit their scalp with more than lukewarm water out of cup. Listen, the grafts should be seated after a week, but why chance it? Also, give the newly transplanted fella's a chance to breathe I am sure it is ok after a couple of weeks, but why take the chance? Go Cubs! 6721 transplanted grafts 13,906 hairs Performed by Dr. Ron Shapiro Dr. Ron Shapiro and Dr. Paul Shapiro are members of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

You're talking about cutting your native hair after HT, right? Because the grafted hair will eventually fall out anyway. I'm now 6 days after HT and I cut my sides and back to match the "burr" on top. I was VERY, VERY careful not to run into the grafted hair while doing so. Additionally, I was mindful not to hold the clippers against my head because of what the vibration might do to the grafts. I think after they are seated, a week or so as B spot said, it would be safe but wanted to error on the side of caution.
