Can shampooing twice a day affect a hair transplant?

Asked By:Thinning_Hair_30 in Canada, CA

I had a hair transplant 6 months ago. During the first couple of weeks I followed my surgeon's specific directions and used the special shampoo given. I then went back to my regular anti-dandruff shampoo showering once a day. After the fourth month it got a lot hotter where I live causing me to sweat more and I began Shampooing twice a day up until now. Just wondering if Shampooing twice a day can harm the transplant?
