Month 6 - Cleansing of Hair Transplant area - Blog 17

http://twitter.com/frombaldtobold So it is nice to be able to sit here and touch the top of my scalp without any discomfort, without any irritation. That is all I have been talking about for the last couple of weeks as why, why, why am I in such discomfort. It has actually been quite horrible, last couple of weeks but I went into the hair club office and they examined me and found out that I had had ingrown hairs caused by pimples, causing this soreness, this redness, this irritation and we took a lot of pictures at the office with this microscopic camera and I posted this on my gallery at Facebook if you happen to be following me there you can look at them and it shows these pimples. In fact I posted it a couple of weeks ago that was I got a lot of comments from you guys like why did you put that up, it was really gross to look at it, it was a popped pimple and I went in for my exam they popped one of these which is perfectly fine. It doesnt stop the hair from growing but it was really gross and it caused a lot of problems, yeah of course. Anyhow back to what I was saying is I am really happy that the irritation has gone and why because I was using Hibiclens in the shower when I am shampooing on my scalp and that helped to cleanse the scalp, reduce the pimples, and remove the irritation. I also used kind of a home remedy that was recommended to me was to take a warm towel and put on top of my head for about 15 minutes. That opened up the pores and again reduced the pimples. So a couple of quick little easy things. Use Hibiclens and use a warm towel and two weeks later it is a lot, lot better. So if any of you are going through this as well please send me a comment and we can talk about it or if you want to give me some comments about those ugly pimple pictures keep those coming.

@rhunt6506 Do you mean the name of the cleanser? Hibeclens

Do you have little red bumps? What is going on with your scalp?

hi its 10 days for me after surgery , this is actually my 3rd one after 10 years, But anyway after 10 days oh ya let me say i workout out last night w weights , light weight of course and after i woke today I was putting ointment on my head and some grafts just came out like nothing, i am very careful too. I am wondering why after 10 days this could of happened,Any thoughts on this.

[FromBaldToBold]

@ghpresman Wow, I have never experienced that. Hate to say it, but maybe you worked out too early - just 10 days. On the positive side, maybe it is just shedding like we talked about before. How has it been the last month?

@asantewaa84 Hey, sorry it took me so long to reply. I missed your comment. Glad my video has helped. Not sure we have the same bumps though. My were caused from a hair transplant. They are temporary. Have they gone away since you wrote me? Give me an update

[FromBaldToBold]

@asantewaa84 My guess is the "pimples" are just ingrown hairs which are trying to pop out but instead it is stuck below the scalp. I used Hibiclens to clean the area and it helped the red bumps to heal. Hopefully this helps you too!

@asantewaa84

conti.

However, after a few days, when the hair started to grow, my scalp was in pain!!! I didnt know what it was, it was itchy was i scratched and scratched till i had all these strange pimples on my head...ALL OVER MY HEAD! Im a girl, it was hard enough accepting that i was going to be bald for a while but pimples on my head it a bit difficult to accept especially since its all soo painful!! I dunno what to do but i just stumbled upon this video & i was hoping for an idea. HELP

[asantewaa84]

PLEASE HELP ME

Hi, I'm so glad that i found your video! A week ago, i decided to shave my head....all my hair off because i had a lot of breakage. My scalp was fine, i had just done a lot of damage to my because i had braided it too many times, for too long and really tightly. Anyway so i thought i'd shave it and start from scratch...hoping that new growth would come and i could be more careful how i treatced my hair this time around. Continued in next comment....i run out of characters.

@ghpresman before it grows it will "shed" but it should still be there under the skin. After about 3 months it will start growing. Who was your doctor?
