@ittybitty, I moved your question about managing your hair and washing to this existing discussion:

I did this so you can get helpful tips from fellow members who have had brain surgery like @gerrica @jeanneoc @dbicher @catv7 @mkoch and others.

@ittybitty, how are you doing?

Part of my head but not the entire head was shaved for the surgery. After I came home, I was ok with how I looked but my son said looking at me was driving him nuts. So he took me to get a really short haircut (not shaved, but close). And I liked the look. I still keep much shorter hair than I ever did prior to my surgery. I was forced to reinvent myself and liked the change. Good luck as you go forward.
