Permanent makeup – what time of year is it safe to do it?

The issue of seasonality of permanent make-up worries many customers. Is it better to do it in summer or winter? What period of the year is considered optimal for tattooing in different areas?

Running ahead. Note that permanent makeup can be done at any time of the year - it will look perfect both in the cold and in the heat. It is important to anticipate only the features of skin care, which differ in winter and summer time periods.

Before the procedure in the summer, the master should draw the client's attention to several factors:

• the skin after tattooing must heal properly. The healing period, on average, takes up to 3 weeks, and during this time the skin cannot be exposed to direct sunlight. This completely excludes visiting the beach and solarium. In the extreme case, you can go under direct ultraviolet rays only by securely covering the tattoo area (for example, with a hat);
• injured skin should not be wet, especially with chlorinated water. Thus, visiting the swimming pool and sauna is prohibited until complete healing;
• it is necessary to protect the skin from the influence of other external factors (dust, dirt, sand, sweat, etc.);
• the client may experience slight discomfort in the form of mild itching and peeling during skin recovery, and with improper care, crusts may form.

Some nuances of PM care in the summer period can also be attributed to disadvantages: firstly, due to the heat, increased sweating is observed, secondly, a greater number of sunny days makes it necessary to adjust the frequency of being outside. Even if these factors do not frighten your clients, it is definitely worth reminding that in the summer it is recommended to pay more attention to skin care after the permanent make-up procedure.

In winter, permanent makeup is just as affordable as in summer. In addition, winter fun, clothes with a collar will not get in the way - the make-up will be flawless. Let's note the positive points of a winter tattoo: quick healing, because it is not hot and the absence of sweating, which contributes to the high quality of the result.

Make a perm in cold weather carefully, because:

• during this period, the probability of contracting SARS increases. During the procedure and after it, immunity decreases, thereby the client risks catching the virus. The master must remember that the procedure must be postponed in case of any manifestations of malaise.
• despite the fact that the sun is not so active in winter, ultraviolet rays still have a negative effect on the pigment. And if in the summer you can cover a fresh eyebrow tattoo with the help of a seasonal headdress, then in the winter the best option will be sunglasses;
• when putting on some things (for example, a sweater with a high neck, a scarf), the client must be very careful not to touch the skin that has not yet healed and to exclude its re-injury;
• during the first week, it is important to limit exposure to the cold, as the low temperature leads to dry skin.

So is there an ideal seasonality for permanent makeup? The answer is simple - conduct it at any convenient time for you and your client, observing all the rules of the procedure!
