post op haircut

[dingdong12]

i am 19 days post op and my hair is very untidy at minute,

 

i am wanting to get a haircut this week .

 

my new transplanted hair has yet to fall out yet , should i wait until it does fall out or is it fine to carry on regardless

 

ca nthe barber cause any damage to the hair either newly transplanted or around the donor area???

 

my doc in his post op instruction give about 3 weeks before haircut which is about now , wanted to see what others felt.

any advice guys?

The hairs would be safe by now, so no worries there. But the donor will be a bit sore when the barber runs his/her comb through the back of the head as I experienced.

I had a chop about 5-6 weeks post op, had 4 haircuts or clean ups by month 4.

I agree with Dutch, it should be no problem. I starting getting touchups the first week. I decided to let the hair stylist in on it so she could help design a cut to best hide the work.
