aloe gel is good for warding off wearing rash.

If you can't wear because of the rash, when you go out of your room just wear a cap and no one will know. I've walked around with no hair and just a cap heaps of times and no one has noticed. I've also walked around with the front not glued down at all, and no one noticed. lol people just don't look out for that stuff.
I'm almost 100% sure you'll be fine.
Once a week I just take the unit off in my room, clean it up with solvents, put on a hat and walk to the shower with my hair wrapped up in my clothes. Then I shave my head in the sink. Then after I rinse the sink I soak my piece in shampoo and warm water in the sink while I shower. Then I get out of the shower, pat my piece with my towel to dry it a bit, then after I've dried myself and put on clothes and my hat again, I walk back to my room with my piece wrapped up in my bath towel. In my room I use a hair dryer on the piece. Then I apply the tape to the unit, put that on my newly cleaned and shaved scalp, then I glue it down all in my room.
It's really easy to do. I'm sure you won't have any issues.
u soak it in shampoo and warm water? and dont condition? doesnt that wreck it?
its easier if ur room mate knows about it and is completely cool with it. i dont think i could ever do it with people that didnt know unless i had my own bathroom.
