yea I took real big care when washing my hair. the nozzle she used was definitely stronger then that of pooring water out of a cup... she even used shampoo??? very frustrating.I dont believe she was new... but at one point she told me I had to wait 4 - 6 months until I could resume weight lifting. After being in shock and asking numerous times if she was sure I then found out by a different staff member that it was 4 - 6 weeks... anyways im going to email the clinic and see what they say.

thinking,
Don't worry about washing out the minoxidil. The inactive ingredients are high in alcohol based and oil additives. These additives are what facilitate the delivery of the minoxidil below the scalp's surface. Obviously you would not want to wash your scalp immediately after applying minoxidil.
The numerous alcohol additives can dry out the scalp and using it twice daily may be the reason for the itchy dry scalp.
Clark Kent,
And I too was very surprised to read of the power wash right after surgery. Generally speaking, the grafts need approximately 72 hours before they are anchored enough for a light wash.
