    I’m 3DPO I feel like I’ve done a work out and pulled muscles which is barable. I’d say in another week I’ll be perfect, I’ve got lots of movement in my arms so I’m sure you will be fine. I’ve braided my sisters hair too. 🙂

    I used to be a hairdresser and still do it outside my job now, I did hair 2wpo and was absolutely fine and had no problems at all. The only thing I’d say is that I did struggle to lift my arms up high for over a week and lost a bit of strength in them, but if you have the seat at the right height so you’re not stretching too much you shouldn’t be too bad. I had overs though and I know the recovery time with unders can be a bit longer xx

    Hi Hannah. I’m a self employed hair stylist in a salon and I have a big clientele. I am practically booked up in December already! I am having my surgery on 7th Nov and I’m back to work 16days after. I am having my implants under the muscle so I know it won’t be easy but I have booked each client in for 15mins longer than usual on my first week back in case I’m a bit slow. X

    I think shampooing will be tough for the first week or so after going back to the salon so make sure you’ve got a junior to hand to help you out x

    @hannah9 I’m a barber and I booked 2 weeks off work, I was absolutely fine going back to work. I just didn’t go straight back into doing things that my arms would be up for a long time (wet shaving etc) also stayed away from the cleaning part of the salon for an extra two weeks or so. You should be fine x
