The Perfect Hair Loss Solution for Men and Women

SMP (Scalp Micropigmentation) is the ultimate solution for individuals experiencing hair loss, thinning hair, or scalp conditions that affect their confidence.

Whether you're dealing with male pattern baldness, alopecia, or hair transplant scars, SMP offers a non‒invasive, long‒lasting treatment that restores the look of a full head of hair with natural‒looking results. It's an ideal choice for men and women who want to enhance their appearance without undergoing surgery, using topical treatments, or relying on temporary solutions.

SMP creates the illusion of hair follicles through precise pigment application, making it a perfect option for those who prefer a closely shaved look or need to add density to thinning areas.

This procedure is also popular among individuals with receding hairlines, giving them a sharper, more defined look that frames their face in a youthful way. With its versatility and effectiveness, SMP is a game‒changer for anyone looking to regain their confidence and achieve a flawless, low‒maintenance hair solution.

Why is a hair tattoo better than other hair loss treatments?

When deciding between Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) and a hair transplant, it's important to consider factors like effectiveness, cost, recovery time, and maintenance. SMP offers guaranteed results with an instantly improved appearance after the first session, whereas hair transplants come with uncertain outcomes, as success depends on donor hair availability and how well the grafts take.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is hair tattooing (SMP) painful

The procedure is virtually painless. Most clients describe the sensation as mild discomfort, similar to a light scratching.

How Long Does a Hair Tattoo Last?

With proper care, SMP can last up to 6 years before requiring a touch-up. The longevity depends on factors like sun exposure and skincare routine.

Can SMP Be Removed or Adjusted?

Yes! Laser removal or pigment lightening techniques can be used if adjustments are needed.

Is a hair tattoo (SMP) Haram

Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a semi-permanent procedure designed to replicate the appearance of natural hair follicles, making it an effective solution for hair loss. Unlike traditional tattoos, SMP does not penetrate deep into the skin, and it gradually fades over time. Importantly, SMP does not create a barrier that prevents water from reaching the skin, meaning it does not interfere with wudu (ablution) or ghusl. According to the British Fatwa Council, micropigmentation is permissible in Islam, as it is not considered a permanent alteration of Allah’s creation.

Hair Tattoo (Scalp Micropigmentation) Cost & Pricing

The cost of a hair tattoo, also known as scalp micropigmentation (SMP), typically ranges between £500 - £3,500 in the UK. The price varies based on factors such as the level of hair loss, the size of the area being treated, and the clinic’s expertise. A consultation (online or in-person) is usually required to get an accurate quote based on your hair loss pattern and desired result.

Does a hair tattooo look natural?

Yes! When done by an experienced SMP artist, it mimics natural hair follicles and blends seamlessly with existing hair or creates the illusion of a full, shaved head.

How many sessions are needed for SMP?

Most clients require 2-3 sessions to achieve full, natural-looking results. Each session builds density and enhances the overall appearance.

How How soon can I return to work after SMP?

You can usually return to work the next day. Minor redness may appear but fades within 24-48 hours.

Will my SMP fade over time?

Yes, SMP gradually fades over 4-6 years, but touch-ups can keep it looking fresh. Proper aftercare and sun protection help maintain the results longer.

Can I still grow my hair after SMP?

Yes! SMP does not stop hair growth. If you choose to grow your hair, the treatment will blend naturally with your existing hair.

What’s the aftercare for SMP?

Days 1-4: Avoid water, sweating, and sun exposure.

Day 5+: Light washing allowed. No scrubbing or shaving.

2-4 weeks: Avoid prolonged sun exposure and exfoliation.

Who is a good candidate for SMP?

SMP is ideal for people with male pattern baldness, thinning hair, alopecia, or transplant scars. It works for both men and women of all hair types.
