Alcohol in hair products


options

Hi everyone,

 

Does anyone know if alcohol in hair products is harmful for hair transplants? Two months post op I started using hair spray with alcohol in it. Never thought to check the ingredients. Been using it for months! Anyone know if it could effect growth?

 

Thanks

Yes alcohol can negatively affect the grafts but at two months post-op you should be safe.

 

I would use it sparingly until around 6 months though, just to be on the safe side or use it on areas not transplanted.

go dense or go home

Hi - thanks for your reply.

Is there any evidence about this?
