Hair transplantation has proven to be an effective and popular medical procedure for people looking to restore their looks due to lost hair. The current hair transplant techniques are highly advanced and well-equipped to provide the best-desired results by bringing back your lost hair, thanks to technological advancements. However, to ensure the best results, you must follow aftercare tips methodically.
How to Wash Your Hair After a Hair Transplant
- Add a few drops of shampoo in a cup of warm water. Ensure that the shampoo is gentle and mild. Mix the shampoo with water using your fingertips. Do this on the first day after the transplant unless your doctor advises otherwise.
- Soak your hair with the soapy water and rub it into the transplanted hair using gentle pressure. Be careful not to cause pain or pull any transplanted hair. Fill a cup with warm water and pour it over your hair repeatedly until the soap is rinsed off completely. Allow the hair to air dry.
- On the second and third day after the transplant, repeat the above steps but you may gently increase the pressure applied on the scalp.
- On the fourth day, begin washing your hair in the shower. Apply shampoo directly to your hands and create foam. Touch your palms gently to the hair follicles to apply the shampoo — do not massage. You can gently touch the hair with your fingertips.
- Repeat the fourth-day method on the fifth day as well. Use a back-and-forth motion while cleaning.
- After 7 days, you may return to your normal hair-washing routine. Spend about ten minutes massaging the transplanted hair in a circular motion and aim to shower at least twice a day.
Shampoo and Styling
During the first four weeks after your hair transplant procedure, you won’t have much hair to style — it will be about the length of a crew cut by the second week.
After the procedure, avoid getting the scalp wet for a few days as advised by hair experts. When it's time to wash, use a very gentle product, such as baby shampoo.
Wait at least a week before styling your hair. Keep products like gel and mousse away from the scalp, and avoid exposing the area to heat from styling tools such as hair dryers, straighteners, or curlers. Also, avoid wearing hats and keep your scalp protected from the sun during the initial healing period.
After about three weeks, you can resume haircuts. If you want to dye your hair, it’s safe to do so at the end of the first month.
