Regular Member Beno99 Posted July 14, 2021 Regular Member Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hello I signed up because I want to get an answer for this one. I washed my hair the first time since the HT on day 2. Before using the shampoo I used the lotion as I got recommended however I used too much of it and I needed lot of time to get rid of it. I washed it off with lukewarm water in a cup and tried to not put much pressure on it. My fear is that I might have damaged the new hairs by using way too much water is that possible ? It’s just 2 days after all Can something bad happen or is it all right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Beno99 Posted July 14, 2021 Author Regular Member Share Posted July 14, 2021 To be more precise, It took me between 15-30 minutes to rinse off all the lotion, is it that bad to wash your hair after a HT for that long ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted July 14, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2021 Unless you noticed any blood loss or saw grafts you should be fine. Can you post any pics ? Thanks 🙏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you can see the lotion wasn’t fully gone yet but it is by now. there was no blood and I didn’t noticed any grafts falling out. So is everything alright then ? Cause transplanted hair are very fragile the first days from what I’ve heard and I wonder if using this much water to wash them so early might be bad ?

Senior Member Britanium Posted July 14, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2021 Yes the first few days are crucial. And they are fragile. However by the sounds of it and looking at the pic i very much doubt you have damaged the grafts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will definitely use much less of the lotion tomorrow and the remaining days and hope nothing bad will happen. What will happen btw if I did manage to damage the grafts by the washing today ? Will they fall out and not grow back anymore ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Britanium Posted July 14, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted July 14, 2021 Graft loss would be noticeable at this stage, you would see a trickle/river of blood. But if they did come out then no they would not grow. It would be a lost graft/grafts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This HT was very important to me and I’m very stressed about this situation, just hope is all right. Edited July 14, 2021 by Beno99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many grafts ? Thanks 🙏 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
