I am 5 weeks postOP FUE hair transplant. My hair wash routine consists of soaking a cloth in shampoo water and squeezing it over my head letting the water gently run down. My clinic said that it is now safe to shower normally/gently rub the transplant site to remove the dead skin. However, the moment I touch the follicles they fall out which I know is expected; 5-10% have fallen already. Is it truly safe to do this and should I expect/want ALL follicles to fall out? Or stick with my routine?
Hello, I am 2 weeks after FUE hair transplantation and I would like to ask how should I dry my hair after shower? What is the best way? I would like to mention I have still some scabs and pieces of skin on recipient area. In the first two weeks I have let hair dry naturally without any towel or hairdryer. I would like to ask what should I do next? Should I dry hair after shower still naturally or gently with towel or some paper tissue or with hairdryer? Thank you very much for your answers.

Hello, Its been 9 days since i have done my FUE transplant. I am not sure when can i take a shower normally? can i massage the grafts area gently so the scabs will fall off? i am just tipping on it, and not directing the shower head on the area. Waiting for an answer please.
I'm used to taking really hot showers every morning. Is it safe to go back to this routine 10 days after a hair transplant? My surgeon said no gym for a month after my transplant, due to the sweating. He said the sweating is bad for the transplanted hair. But he also said I could go back to my usual shower routine after 10 days. Still, I always tend to after sweat a lot after my hot morning showers. Is this sweating just as bad for my transplanted hair as the sweating during working out?

I'm 24 days post FUE in frontal area implant. First 2 weeks was told not to let shower stream hit my head as I could loose grafts. Is it safe to now take regular showers with shower stream hitting my head as crust is all gone? What kind of shampoo should I use now since the one they gave me is finished? Is baby shampoo recommended? Thanks
Had my FUE done 2 weeks and one day ago. For the past few days (5 Aprox) I've noticed shedding like this on my pillow and when I shower. Does it seem normal to you guys? I'm not very worried as I know that shedding is very natural. I'm just looking for a reassuring opinion. Thanks
