Scalp micro pigmentation can be used to cover any area where hair is missing on the scalp. It can also be used if you have very thinning hair or alopecia (hair loss). Because of this, many men and women choose to get a hair tattoo as a way of concealing balding areas on their head.


Hair tattoos are safe and effective for covering up patches of missing hair. The process involves applying specially formulated tattoo pigments onto your scalp using a specialized tattoo machine that contains tiny needles that inject the ink into your skin. This process takes about two - four hours per session, the amount of sessions varies depending on how much coverage you want. Generally speaking the average is 3 sessions to achieve most desired looks.

Hair tattoos AKA SMP AKA Scalp Micropigmentation are a great way to cover up your bald or thinning areas and can be helpful in recreating a hairline. There are many different hairline styles to choose from, and every treatment is customized so it’s easy to find one that looks good on you.
