Wanted to get some advice from all of you please.  I will be having major surgery and will not be able to deal with my hair for about two weeks.  Can you give me any advice on how to counteract the drugs that I will be pumped up with?  My hair is completely natural so I think that will be a plus.

I think I have a hair style that will be simple enough and if that does not work then I will have a hair wrap at the hospital just in case!

Before I go in I am going to do a deep conditioning with heat and drink plenty of water before the big day.  I was told not to eat or drink anything after 12 midnight the day of the surgery.

Has anyone had to encounter this during their hair journey, your advice is greatly appreciated.
