You need to wear some type of cap or bandanna that covers your head. It is not ok to put your grafts into direct sunlight for extended periods of time.

You should check with your doctor to see how long he or she wants you to wait this out.

You should be fine to take some trips to tanning salon, if you cover your dome.

Take Care,
Jason

You should not have any problem if you are 3 months post-op. To be on the safe side wear a bandanna over the grafted area. Remember it is the burning that has the long term negative effects. Getting a little color without burning is usually safe. Nobody wants to be too white in wedding photos.
