Regular Member ScottishGuy21 Posted April 12, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted April 12, 2023 I’m 6 months post transplant and wanting to start using some product in my hair to keep it in place. What is everyone post op using? Naturally I’m a little apprehensive. Before my transplant I would use extra hold hair spray but not sure this is a good idea with developing hair? Thanks I’m advance for any pointers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valued Contributor A_4_Archan Posted April 12, 2023 Valued Contributor Share Posted April 12, 2023 If you hair is thin than i would say you can use hair volumizing wax powder which will give illusion of density as well as a good hold with matte finish.. 2 Check Out My Hair Transplant Journey --> My Thread 3611 FUE Grafts With Dr Kongkiat Laorwong | Norwood 5 | 2nd May 2023 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member StillAlive Posted April 12, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 12, 2023 Yep, what Archan said. After six months I started using some Slick Gorilla hair styling powder and their Lightwork clay, both really good. Also, you can pretty much stop worrying about the transplanted hair at this point, treat as you would your normal hair and let nature take its course! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about using this once my hair grows out abit more post transplant.... Is it quite greasy and clumps your hair together? I have naturally fine hair anyway and am looking for something to add more texture and illusion of density... Is this what you are using it for?

Senior Member StillAlive Posted April 13, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 13, 2023 I'm using their Lightwork light clay to just kinda pat down the corners of my hair. I have this terribly spiky Korean-style hair, where it just grows at 90 degree angles out of my head and really needs length for it to properly 'sit down' and look normal. So until it grows out enough, I just use it to pat down the unruly side hair. Really great for that. Once longer, I intend to use it to slick back the future undercut. Really light texture, does not feel like there is product in the hair at all. I was quite skeptical but the product really won me over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member StillAlive Posted April 13, 2023 Senior Member Share Posted April 13, 2023 7 months and 10 days post op, you can check out my thread for progress. Only started using product after the 6th month and very sparingly. I got regular buzzcuts up to Month 3 to reduce overall 'ugly duckling' effect and have been letting the recipient area grow ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
