Can you do your hair after surgery?

Ok now this question may be a tad but silly but I've googled and can't find much of an answer, I'm getting my breast done dec 21st which obviously is close to the holidays so one question I have is can you even do your hair after surgery ? Or even reach to wash it? I ask because I've had girls tell me the doctor they used said no that it could mess with your stitches?
