Shaving head after FUE

[whatyalookingat]

Hi Folks
I had an FUE procedure done almost 6 weeks ago now and I have heard and been told mixed reports with regard to shaving the head with a clippers after FUE. Some people say it is fine some say leave it until 6 months.
I dont really understand the science behind the decision to leave it 6 months, surely if the grafts are in after 14 days there in and can't be damaged.
The reason I want to shave the head is I have to return to work and the growth is sporadic and doesnt look good.
Thanks for your replies!

You are fine to shave your head down with clippers. The grafts are secure, most if not all will have shed by now.

I agree with Bigmac you should be fine now pal.

Yeah go ahead and shave if you want, that's what I did for the majority of my 11 months post ht.
