Most high-end Vegas clubs are like most high-end clubs anywhere and they have a strict dress code which includes no hats. If you know which clubs you are likely to go to, you can check their websites for a dress code or call and ask if they allow hats.

Strong heat and sun rays there also as you know, be careful about exposing the grafts.

Probably will have to wash your hair and scalp more often due to sweating too.

[tacolinowest]

you think even at 2.5 months the heat is still an issue for the grafts? and sweat? i have no intension of getting sun on my head, ill be wearing hats to the pool parties

Taco,

 

Most surgeons recommend avoiding direct sunlight to the scalp for the first 3 months. I've seen a few who even recommend it for the first 6. As far as the hats in some of the higher end clubs are concerned: I'm not really certain. I used to live about 3.5 hours from Vegas, and I went quite a bit with friends in college. However, I never really paid attention as to whether or not people were wearing appropriate hats in clubs. I think calling a few of the clubs and asking may be helpful, and I'd definitely ask Dr. Feller about the direct sunlight (let us know what he says).
