      Different clinics have different protocols so I would suggest you ask your team first and go with what they prefer.

        Drober,

        Many clinics will inform you that once you reach 7-10 days post-op to resume normal shampooing which includes involves removing the crusts.

        At this point you should be 2 weeks post-op so yes that would involve getting your scalp under normal water pressure which will also make the crusts easier to remove.

        Congrats on your recent procedure.
