Ask you doctor for their specific post operative care instructions.Any shampoo may be fine but your doctor (who performed your surgery) may not agree.

Marco Barusco, MD · Answer

At 2 months post transplant you may resume your normal hair care routine, including the use of your preferred shampoo, conditioner (if you need to use it), hair gel, etc. The transplanted hairs, although not grown yet, are already healed and will start to appear soon. So feel free to enjoy your new hair, and don't worry about anything.

Yes you can use Dove shampoo at this stage after a hair transplant. It is important to keep your scalp clean, healthy and moisturised. A few moments of scalp massage when you shampoo will also stimulate the blood supply.

The first few weeks after hair transplant you need to follow a post op regiment, however two months after your hair transplant you can use any quality shampoo for cleansing and it will not hurt the grafts.  Some shampoos are better than others, depending on the your hair condition you can chose one that works well with your hair.

There are many good quality shampoos. Look at the expensive shampoos and see if they have a wetting agent (usually say good for dry hair). Any good shampoo will work
