Can I color my hair?

Surgery is scheduled for Wednesday. I gave a few days off before then. Do you think it’s ok to touch up my color I have lots of grey..lol. Also I get my eyelash extensions refilled every 2 weeks should I get that out the way too?

  • I don’t see why not. You’re not going to feel like taking care of those things for a week or two post-surgery. Good luck!

  • I think I would probably wait until a week or so after surgery. It's not as though you will be looking good in the hospital and you might need the "pick me up" afterwards .

    Hi I haven't had my surgery yet but I was told not to put eyelashes on because of the anesthesia they might have your eyelids closed with tape but Im definitely coloring my hair right before surgery

Yes on the hair color, no on the lashes.

Waking up from anesthesia you may abruptly rub your eyes without you being aware..then it’s $$ wasted if they fall out.

Put rinse ?on my hair for bravery, knew I COULDN'T paint my nails!

You could color your hair and maybe skate by the hairloss phase unaffected, but if hairloss is a concern for you, you may want to ask about the dye (severity of damage to your hair) to anticipate what you are risking

Nothing wrong in coloring your hair. I would skip the eyelash extension s.
