British Columbia is built for movement. From gym sessions and trail hikes to ocean swims and hockey rinks, many clients worry SMP won’t fit their lifestyle.

Yes — after healing.
First 4–5 days: no heavy sweating
After healing: sweat has zero impact on pigment retention
Long-term: SMP is sweat-proof and waterproof
Swimming, Ocean Water & Pools
Saltwater and chlorine do not damage healed SMP. Many Vancouver clients regularly swim at beaches or pools with no issues — just rinse your scalp afterward.
Helmets, Hats & Outdoor Gear
Bike helmets, ski helmets, and work headgear are fine once healed. This is where proper pigment depth matters — something poorly trained artists get wrong.
