Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / April 2005How am I going to keep my hair clean
It occurs to me that I might not be able to wash my hair for a while after they drill a hole in my skull. Are there any good products for keeping my hair clean while I have to keep the dressing dry?

It's a dry shampoo that you spray on and comb out. We carry it where I work...at least I think we still do. Try looking at Wal-Mart, Walgreen's, etc. You should be able to find it fairly easily. Kelly C. Jo if you don't find it at those places, I know that a Barber & Beauty Supply business would have either that or something similar.

I found a link so you can see what it looks like... http://www.woodridgelabs.com/psssssst.htm I could ship it to you for less than the web site here. Sheesh, the price. You should have no trouble finding it, though. Kelly C. I used to use baby powder long ago. But I know there are products that are used for bedridden patients. ummm Plug the words 'dry shampoo' into google. I even found a recipe for a home made version. Looks like there is one called Psssst which is available practically everywhere. Is that what you are looking for?

I have used it when I am sea kayaking in Mexico and all I have to wash in is salt water. It is a no rinse shampoo. http://www.dynamic-living.com/no-rinse-shampoo.htm It works just fine. -- MZ Visit my website: http://www.mzuschlag.com >>Are there any good products for keeping my >>hair clean while I have to keep the dressing dry?

I always have a hard time finding stuff unless I know what I'm looking for. Jo > It occurs to me that I might not be able to wash my hair for a while after > they drill a hole in my skull.

Now they did shave part of my head...My hole in the head was right above my right ear...And in the hospital I had a head dressing...You know, they kind of wrapped my head...But I am almost positive that by the time I came home it was gone and I was showering as normal... But sometimes brain fog doesn't let me remember that well... Also the pain from that surgery was nothing like the pain to my stomach when I had WLS....Unlike Men....Our muscle has nothing to do with our brain ;) Hugs Cindy > It occurs to me that I might not be able to wash my hair for a while after > they drill a hole in my skull.

Within a week (5 or 6 days) a nurse ushered me into a shower and gave instructions on how to shower while sitting on a bench and holding a grab bar while standing. ...

It felt like a gel cap that was put on my head and rubbed around. It did clean my hair and had a good fragrance too. I don't know what it was called. -- BettyB -- www.flamingo-code.com "A pessimist is correct oftener than an optimist, but an optimist has more fun" Robert A. Heinlein - Time Enough For Love |
