Help How do I hide scars and cuts?

[sometimes.sometimes]

All summer, I have been hurting myself. Tomorrow is the first day of school, and I don't want to show up with marks on my arm. How can I hide it without using makeup? I have been thinking about going to the store and getting temporary tattoos to cover it, but I have a feeling that it might be a bad idea and result in an infection. Maybe I am thinking too hard about it, but I would like some assistance when it comes to figuring out what to do.

I use makeup if I can't hide em with clothing. In a nother thread, silicone scar tape was brought up. Maybe that could work.

How to hide scars in the summer?

i’m going on vacation soon and i’ll have to wear short sleeves, what are some ways to hide scars without seeming suspicious. (keloid scars located at my left upper forearm)

maybe you can get those Spray Plaster to close the open wound's before trying the temp tattoo, but would that not give more attention to the places?

Best of luck in the school

Depends on how severe the scars are, if they are not super noticeable most people won't see them. If they are obvious on the other hand makeup is your best choice. Either that or baggy loose clothes with long sleeves, difficult if it's super hot tho.
Don't know any other reliable way, sorry.
Good luck!

Try fingerless arm gloves they're pretty popular and go well w most outfits

I am going to try that, too. I might just experiment and see what works best. I really like that suggestion, and thanks.

I used to wear forearm sleeves and added some bangles. They are light and good in the heat. Athletes use them. I used them so much that people just assumed that was my style.
