Answer: Headaches 9 days after a hair transplant are not common
You can do this after all of the crust are gone and you have waited about 3 weeks for everything to heal. I generally recommend that my patients color their hair before a hair transplant
I always tell my patients not to look at their hair transplant for 7 months, when reasonable growth it present. If you look at the area at 5 months, although some of the grafts will have grown, you will only be disappointed as the rest may not have started to grow for another month or two
