@wyatt182 Hi, there are some stores that sell sun protection swimsuits with a translucent jacket. I think that kind of jacket is suitable for you. I think there are definitely some scars that cannot be covered while swimming. I don't think it's weird for someone to have some scars on their body. You don’t need to be afraid of people’s judgment. In fact, everyone is just surprised. There is no need for people to live in the eyes of others. Similarly, people who hurt themselves may not want to end their lives. Everyone should have their own life. Everyone only has one life, and if there are some things that cannot be covered, just let them go.

Hey there!


First of all, big hugs to you! It's awesome that you're looking for ways to feel comfortable and confident. Scars tell a story, and you're a warrior.


For thighs, you might want to consider cute high-waisted swimsuit bottoms or swim shorts. They're trendy and give a little extra coverage. 


Wrist and shoulder scars can be covered with waterproof concealer or makeup. There are some great options out there that stay put, even in the water.


Another stylish option is a lightweight, flowy cover-up. They're perfect for throwing on when you're not in the water and still want a bit of coverage.


Remember, you're beautiful just the way you are, scars and all. Own your uniqueness, and rock that summer vibe! 🌞💕

Hey, I've got a few things.


-swimsuit shorts/trunks for thighs

-sleeved swimsuits for shoulders, or long sleeved ones for both shoulders and wrists

-bracelets or bands

-Wetsuits also work for all

-All of this swim wear is made for both genders

-waterproof makeup.


It takes time to accept you are fabulous even with scars representing the times you had to be strong. Do what makes you most comfortable, and don't worry about others. Good luck to you!
