Senior Member HairEnthusiast101 Posted May 2, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted May 2, 2022 How long after FUE can you get a perm? Also does perm cause hair loss long term? I’d probably only do it once just to see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted May 2, 2022 Valued Contributor Share Posted May 2, 2022 Perming your hair is a good way to give the illusion of more coverage. I would wait a good six months personally but I would think (if you had enough hair grown out) that three months would be fine. I really think how long your hair is to perm dictates this one. 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does perm speed up balding at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the bulb below the scalp, DHT levels, etc. 1 GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rahal Hair Transplant Posted May 2, 2022 Share Posted May 2, 2022 Jodimaggio, getting a perm won’t do anything to hurt your hair transplant. As far as how long after a hair restoration procedure you can perm your hair, well… transplanted hair won’t be long enough to perm for at least six months after it starts growing. Thus, by the time it’s long enough to perm, it surely going to be safe enough. Wavy/curly hair can also assist with providing an illusion of density so if you like the wavy/curly look, it can benefit the overall appearance of density of your hair transplant in time. best wishes, Rahal Hair Transplant 2 Rahal Hair Transplant Institute - Answers to questions, posts or any comments from this account should not be taken or construed as medical advice.

I just had no idea if perms were bad for hair(if you did it once) either before or after HT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
