When would it be safe to wear these?

Hi, I'm 2 weeks post FUE surgery. Grafts were places in the area where the headphones headband would touch the scalp, the top middle part basically. The headphones weight 250 grams.

Am I now safe to wear the headphones or should I wait a little bit more? Opinions?

Technically you are safe, but I'd err on the side of paranoia and just use earbuds till the 1 month mark.

It should be safe at two weeks but I'm like @StillAlive I'm also on the side of caution if you can. I mean heck if you can push it past a couple weeks even by a few days. They say two weeks you should be  good though and if it's for work and you gotta, I'd say just be mindful putting the headset on and off best you can.

@Embunny,

Honestly, you could probably wear them immediately as long as the top of the headphones aren’t pressing down on the newly transplanted hairs.  just wear them loosely and preferably have the top of the headphones hover just above the graphs rather than pressing down upon them.

in terms of wearing them regularly without any problems even if they’re pressing down, I would wait at least 7 to 10 days.

I hope this helps.
