Hi, I shaved mine to 2.5mm that is just under a number 1 and did so anytime after day 14 onwards. You should be clean and healed well by then to do so and have no issues with doing this.
can it do any harm to the grafts at that point? I was hoping for maybe the 10-11 day mark before back to work what do you think? Bit too early ?

As always, ask your physician - but - it is really that important to be buzzing it at the 14 day mark as opposed to giving a just a little more TLC to your scalp a little longer and giving yourself the best possible chance of success?

 

I would personally avoid the scenario of buzz,buzz, OOPS...:eek:

I'm serious.  Just look at my face.

I'd personally make sure to follow the advice of your specific clinic if shaving earlier as I can't speak for their protocols but need to have clean skin and avoid having crusts or anything that could be caught. Send photos to your doctor and see if they are happy but personally waited to day 14 onwards.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Voxman it is important if I want it to remain a secret if not then it wouldn't matter a dam. But if suddenly after 2 years I start growing my hair out after 10 days of been out of the country I will surely raise a few eyebrows ha
