Answer first
Before your NPM SMP session, sleep well, eat beforehand, avoid alcohol the day before, come with a clean scalp and tell us about any medicines or skin conditions. Plan for a session of about 2 to 4 hours and bring a cap for the trip home.
The day before
Avoid alcohol and heavy sun. Wash your hair as usual and skip styling products.
On the day
Eat a proper meal, wear a shirt that buttons or zips, and bring headphones if you like.
Tell us
Mention blood thinners, skin conditions, allergies or recent sunburn so the practitioner can plan safely.
Questions
Should I shave before?
Follow NPM's instructions for your plan.
Can I drive home?
Most people can. Bring a cap to keep sun off your scalp.
