I am almost 7 days post op and need to dye my hair. With all the body changes would it be ok? Or should I wait?? I don't know what to do .. I know it's a weird question but I need an answer lol

I dyed my hair when I was three weeks out. I was one of the very fortunate ones that my hair did not fall out. I worked hard at keeping my Protein up and I had lots of food issues for several months. I was prepared for it to fall out since it did when I had major surgery once before.

I am four weeks post today and I just had mine died on Saturday. I had been contemplating it for weeks however I put it off only because my hair is waist length and it means sitting in a salon chair for three hours to have it completed. I was so sore that I knew I wouldn't tolerate sitting that long. They say that hair loss starts around month 4-5, so I figured I had better enjoy my hair now just in case!!!!

You can dye your hair as long as you can stand up for awhile.

Thanks guys !

I have dyed my hair twice and am 9 weeks out with no harm.

It's fine go for it!

Maggie, what does standing up have to do with dying hair? I'm confused on that one.

@@AmyC65, if she's doing it herself then moving her arms up and down might hurt.

I do hair for a living and I didnt do anyone's hair till I was 6 weeks out. I did do my own right away. Just do what makes you feel comfortable.

Oh ok guys thanks.. I am 10days out so far and can't wait!

I am 11 days and getting my hair colored right now at a salon.
