Hello, 2 months post-op FUE, yesterday I made a stupid decision of going to a tanning salon for an 8 minute tanning session. I put tanning lotion on the recipient area and wore a 50 UPF bandanna that completely covered my scalp but I’m still deeply regretting my decision and absolutely will not go back!! Did I do permanent damage in spite of the lotion and bandanna? Attaching photo of the bandanna.
