Regular Member nik1990 Posted December 27, 2017 Regular Member Posted December 27, 2017 Question I avoided anything immediate and I'm currently at 7 days post op atm Washed my hair first time yday, I've avoided any sweating / steam baths or anything, Currently eating some spicy crisps and getting a bit of sweat and scared lol Should it affect the grafts at this stage? Or should I wait until a few weeks before I crack on with the chilli's Indian btw so it's hard to eat non spicy foods!
Senior Member Speegs Posted December 28, 2017 Senior Member Posted December 28, 2017 Probably a non-issue, ask your physician. Hair loss patient and transplant veteran. Once a Norwood 3A. Received 2,700 grafts with coalition doctor on 8/13/2010 Received 2,380 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 9/30/2011 Received 1,820 grafts with Dr. Steven Gabel on 7/28/2016
Senior Member Shera Posted December 28, 2017 Senior Member Posted December 28, 2017 Hey Nik, You are fine to eat spicy foods. Thousand of Indians go for hair transplants each year and have a staple diet that revolves around chilly food, anything else would probably not agree with them. Sweating is also OK, it will cause you no harm to your transplanted hairs.

Bill - Seemiller Posted December 29, 2017 Posted December 29, 2017 Nothing wrong with eating spicy foods after a hair transplant. Eating healthy is always good regardless of your hair, but there is certainly healthy spicy foods :-). Bill
