Shave Head Before Hair Transplant

Thank you for your question.  With the FUE method of hair transplants, you will need to shave the donor site (back of the scalp) before your procedure.  The good news is that in DHI method of hair transplants most cases you will not need to shave the entire head .
good luck

Ok I will say No. But I am being funny. There are a few clinics that provide a no shave or an incomplete shave FUE where by sections of the safe zone are cut and the hair not shaved covers these areas. HOWEVER HERE ARE THE DOWNSIDES:
1. Expensive. These no shave FUE are inherently more expensive and add $2-$4 EXTRA per graft.
2. The incomplete shave procedure means sections are cut for the extraction. This leaves a major danger of over harvesting within these sections. BEWARE
3.Time. The time for these no shave procedures is much longer in the chair. I don't care what they say, it will take longer. Including graft times out of the body.
The best way to perform an FUE in my opinion is by shaving the entire donor and recipient. This ensures quality and speed from extraction to implantation, and not over harvesting. 

Hello, Thank you for your question. I usually recommend to my patients to shave their hair before the operation to get the best and densest result. But in some cases patients with long hair want to keep their hair. So we shave their donor area as they could hide long hair and do the operation as without shaving.
