I am going to transplant my hair , but I don't want to participate in social activities with a bald head, Can i wear a hair system during my hair transplant period ?

This raises many questions, for instance, how do you intend to attach the hair system, bonding adhesive clips, tapes, follow on, can the system be removed on a regular basis, daily for hours at a time. Will the attachment area interfere with the donor or recipient areas, how will it be possible to clean your scalp, especially in the early days post op healing. Assuming it is feasible to safely maintain a hair system, you have to consider the transition from a hair system that almost always has a much higher hair density than any hair transplant can create.

I don't believe most clinics would want their patients to wear a hair system immediately after surgery for several weeks minimum.
It does depend on the type of system too as to how soon you'd be able to put the system back on, for sure not the first 2 weeks during the healing phase.
