There should be no issue of cutting or trimming your transplanted hair. Transplanted hair is just like your donor hair. There is no time limit.
We usually advise our patients who have had follicular unit extraction (FUE) to wait 5-6 days after their procedure before trimming their hair. If a patient has had a linear extraction procedure ("strip") it is probably safest to wait until after the sutures are removed at 10-12 days.
We generally discuss the care needed after a hair transplant with all our patients. In some cases we refer them to hair stylist who know how to deal with newly transplanted hair but overall there is not much limitation in cutting or styling after the first few days past a hair transplant. To be on the safe side wait 7 days and you probably can do anything you want at that point.
You can have a good hair cut about 30 days after a hair transplant, or earlier if your hair stylist understands how to be careful with both the donor and recipient area. If your hair stylist understand these nuances, then you can have your hair cut at 2 weeks.
Your transplanted hair will grow in after three months and may continue to grow in for up to 18 months after the procedure. The non transplanted hair which is your native hair will continue to grow after transplant. As a post op protocol we recommend that our patients wait three weeks to visit a hair stylist. The reason being, we want to make sure the scabs are gone and the donor is healed before subjecting it to a non safe environment.

Unfortunately, this happens to a few people and when it does, I generally tell the patient to wait out a full hair cycle which is usually 3 years or so. You can ask your hair stylist for way to reduce the curl and texture of your hair as there are many products sold that might help you while you...
Always check with your doctor if you are planning to use drugs or supplements after surgery. It may not damage the grafts but you should keep your doctor in the loop.

Hair transplants in combination with scalp micropigmentation is a way to get more fullness from less hair. We have done this hundreds of times, and it works well. The example below is a person who had scars from previous hair transplants and not enough hair to do everything, but when the...
