What is Scalp Micropigmentation?
SMP (scalp micro pigmentation) is a type of cosmetic tattooing. The ultra-realistic scalp micro-pigmentation ink mimics hair follicles that are ready to sprout, giving the appearance of a newly shaven head. It is a safe, effective, and non-surgical alternative to hair loss.
This technique may be used on the entire scalp, hair loss regions, balding areas (male pattern baldness), bald patches, scars, and even hairlines. SMP is also an excellent method for making thin sections of hair appear thicker. SMP may be used for both short and long hair.
Scalp Micropigmentation is the most effective hair loss treatment for both men and women. This non-surgical precision method, which has been proved to be safe and effective, duplicates the look of natural hair follicles and gives customers the impression of a neatly shaved scalp. Scalp Micropigmentation, often known as a hair tattoo, provides the illusion of a full head of hair eternally.
What are the advantages of scalp micropigmentation?
SMP has several advantages. It’s an excellent method for creating the impression of hair in a very subtle, natural way. Our team consists of highly experienced technicians who utilize specialized tools, inks, and methods to achieve an invisible finish. There’s no need to be concerned about existing hair being damaged because our needles only penetrate the top dermis of the skin.
It is also a low-maintenance therapy with long-term effects. Your technician will give you some aftercare instructions, which you should follow for a few days before returning to your usual routine. Your effects will then persist for years, making it a low-cost, no-hassle therapy.
- Hairline Tattoo for Repairing Hairlines: One of the most important aspects of scalp micropigmentation is your new hairline. Several hairline designs can be made by a trained artist, and we will work diligently with you to get the look you prefer. The form and finish of the hairline are taken into consideration, whether it is a natural soft finish or an edged-up barbershop style. We are experts at creating a broad assortment of hairlines to meet any demand. To frame the face and get the finest look, your hairline must be in the proper position.
- Receded hairline:
Another one of our innovations that have proven to be quite popular is the Receded Hairline. This hairline is created by combining parts of the Faded Hairline with a slightly concave side profile to give you that realistic shape and finish that suits specific head shapes and styles.
Hairline Faded:
The Faded Hairline is designed to provide clients with a softer appearance at the front border of their SMP hairline. We attain this effect by simply utilizing lighter pigment colors and gradually increasing density and shade behind this region as we proceed through the SMP procedure’s numerous sessions. With the creation of this new appearance, a more natural and delicate SMP technique is established, which has since become legendary.
This style is developed to appear more subtle, with a natural finish and softer edge than prior ‘Old Sckool’ SMP could achieve. The Faded Hairline is presently one of the most desired SMP hairlines in the industry.

SMP for receding hairline in long hair
If you’re pleased with your long, flowing locks but have a receding hairline, SMP for long hair may be the solution you’re looking for. This technique can provide the appearance of thicker hair above your brow, but it requires some long hair to support the overall effect. Your scalp tattoos will raise your hairline, allowing you to maintain your long hair.
As your hairline recedes further, you may need to trim your hair into a shorter style. However, SMP for long hair may help you to retain your trademark image for a longer period than you would otherwise be able to.
SMP isn’t always a long-term option for long hair. Scalp micropigmentation can only provide the appearance of short hair. The effects can be excellent if you already have long hair that you can merge with your tattoos. If your hairline has receded, you may want to consider other choices. Once you’ve had your scalp tattoos, you’ll need to keep an eye out for symptoms of additional hairline regression. As your hairline recedes, you may begin to lose more of your once long hair. At this point, it may be necessary to shave your hair to receive more SMP treatment.
If your hair is thinning and you want to retain the longer length without having to wear the shaved buzz appearance, SMP methods can give the illusion of density by layering treatments and colors of micro-dots around and in-between existing hair. For elderly clientele whose hair is becoming grey or white, it is best to keep the color a deeper tone for the best effects.
- Defined Edge Up Hairline:
The Defined Hairline was designed to replace what was previously described as an ‘Edge-Up.’ We designed a look that achieves the Edge-Up aesthetic but looks and ages better due to the shading and needle size techniques we employ to avoid excessive saturation on the front edge.
Peaked Hairline : We developed an SMP version of Widows Peak that is soft and shattered to give it that wonderful authenticity.
- SMP Fade:
The SMP Fade is done once again by applying to shade similar to our faded hairline, but this time on the side profile to create the appearance of a modern-day skin fade. The barbering experience is crucial in producing this style, which caught the SMP world by storm again.
- Dusted Hairline:As a milder form of SMP, the Dusted Hairline was created for customers with light hair or skin or who are exceedingly careful and wish to remain incredibly inconspicuous. This style may always be expanded in the future as a client’s confidence in their new appearance grows.
Frequently Asked Questions
SMP may help with alopecia, thinning hair, pattern baldness, hairline repair, and other hair loss issues. It gives the illusion of hair follicles or a slight stubble, making it ideal for recreating the image of a newly shaven head.
When having SMP with short hair, it is assumed that there is already existing hair on the scalp, therefore the color will be built up to match up your hair color so it appears entirely natural throughout the procedure. There is no need to be concerned about the color fading or changing since we utilize carbon-based pigment that is diluted to match your skin tone.
In contrast to hair transplant procedures, the outcomes of scalp micropigmentation are immediate. Following the treatment, you may have some pain and redness, however, this should subside within 1 to 2 days depending on your skin type. The treated area must dry heal for four days following treatment, so avoid getting it wet with water, lotions, perspiration, or other liquids. You will be given complete aftercare to ensure that you obtain the greatest possible result from your procedure, with benefits that will last for years.
Typically 2-3 sessions are necessary. Your second session is complimentary and is included in the intital price. Sessions will vary depending on how well your skin holds pigment, aftercare, sun exposure, and lifestyle. The results can last up to 2-3 years.

How much does it cost?
$500 with second session included. We offer complimentary consultation to confirm this pricing, answer your questions, and help you on your journey to achieving your scalp goals.
The price of scalp micropigmentation may increase. This is determined by four major criteria.
Treatment area: The majority of those who choose this treatment to have male pattern baldness (MPB). The Norwood Scale is used to assess the degree of baldness. According to this scale, there are seven phases of baldness, the first of which is the baseline (no hair loss is recorded).
Skin type: Artists use various techniques for different types of skin. Excessively dry, flaky, or aged skin, for example, needs a greater level of dedication, as well as additional care and effort. The same is true for extremely sensitive skin, damaged skin, or skin covered with acne or moles. Aside from that, excessively thick skin may necessitate particular care. Because of this, you should talk with your artist ahead of time to determine whether your skin is sensitive and whether it will impact the pricing.
Scarring: The existence of scarring might significantly raise the cost of your procedure. Hair does not grow over scar tissue, making scalp micropigmentation a difficult process. Even though it is not a tough task, it has a significant impact on the procedure’s cost. Lighter scars, on the other hand, are easier to remove.
Hairstyle and density: Finally, the cost of scalp micropigmentation is determined by your hair density and desired style. If you want to imitate more hair follicles, the price will be greater than for those who merely want to maintain their density.
Do I need a consultation?
Yes, we recommend that you book a complimentary consultation with us. Our skilled practitioners know that you may have worries both before and after the procedure. Your practitioner will review your skin type as well as any problems, such as psoriasis, that may need to be resolved before treatment can begin. You will be given an estimate of how long each treatment will take, how to care for the region, and whether or not repeat procedures will be required to obtain the best potential result.
