    Default Talking about Sun Exposure, how much is too much?

    Hi, after a hair transpltation (FUE or FUT) you have to protect your new hair from sun rays, but how much is too much?. I mean if I have been exposed to the sun, how many minutes are too many?, what about cloudy days?, what about through a glass window?, winter or summer? Is it so dangerous at 9:00 am as it is at 12:00 pm? how do I know if my grafts have been damaged because of sun exposure and what kind of effects are we talking about?

    Thanks
