Is it ok to wear bangs post FUE for hairline restoration?

Bkbaby
I'm on day 4 post FUE, I'm female with long hair and bangs. I've started shampooing the recipient area today and wondering as I let my hair dry out if it's ok to continue wearing my bangs, or if I should have the recipient area free of anything touching it. I had my hair back until today. Thanks in advance.
