If you had an FUE procedure you can do it after about 10 days.

 

If you had a strip (FUT) you should know that strip scars take 6 to 8 months to mature and that stretching you neck muscles is difficult to avoid in swimming and a host of other physical exercises.

 

Then the strip clinic reps and docs will tell you a whole different bunch of stories.

I've heard anything from ten days to ten months to a year before you should mess with exercises that involve even a slight risk of pulling at your neck muscles.

 

They say you must be selective and use your discretion when choosing the particular exercises you do. I personally find it almost impossible to avoid stretching the neck muscles entirely.

 

I'm guessing you did strip?

It's a tough question if you're a serious lifter. f by bodybuilding you mean heavy weightlifting - things like squats/deadlifts, I would avoid for probably what scar5 said, maybe 6 months...just think about how much pressure you're putting on your back in the middle of a heavy squat...plus you have the tendency to strain your neck by looking upwards.
