Do you like fairy tales? Do you know what is the most important object in the hands of a wizard, a witch or a fairy? You are right, it's a magic wand. It really can do miracles. It fulfills all the wishes of its owner. Well, SMP hair serves as a magic wand if you long for hair you have lost or you have never had. The full name is scalp micro pigmentation and means a tattoo - similar technique by which the covering of previously bald head or the camouflage of thin places can be created. Due to naturally looking colours of ink, the result of SMP hair is a perfect illusion of thick hair. Absolutely impossible to be revealed as “a fake”!
Is SMP Hair Really So Important?
No, it isn´t. Likewise, it isn't necessary to put on makeup, use perfume or get rid of unwanted hair on the face or legs. It is just a part of the body care. Many people try to get used to their imperfect or changed appearance (it is the cheapest option but demands loads of self-esteem), many others buy and wear traditional disguising accessories. But SMP hair has been thriving since the tattoo spread widely among people and the public opinion of it completely changed. This beautifying art is very old and was used all over the world, and isn't connected only with Maori people. Nowadays, it is not associated with sailors and the lower or even criminal class any more. The tattoo on the head - which scalp micropigmentation is in fact - is a great idea for both men and women who want to follow fashion, and who need some correction because of missing hair.
May I Undergo SMP Hair?
Why not? There are no risks for a healthy man. Perhaps people with problematic skin should discuss it with their dermatologist. If you are not sure, let's do our short quiz, it should help you a bit.
- Is it hard for you to bear the pain? It doesn't matter because SMP hair doesn't hurt at all. If you feel something uncomfortable, the anesthetic cream can be used.
- Do you hate injections or needles? No problem, the micro -needles which are used you will not see. The cosmetician will work on your head and you can just close your eyes and relax.
- Are you very busy and hardworking? It could be a problem, because the procedure takes time. At least 3 sessions are needed, each one can last from 3 up to 6 hours. Slow down or take SMP during your holiday. Something like SMP tourism exists and in some touristically attractive countries, for example in the Czech Republic, they can do it very well. Besides, they are cheaper.
- Can you not live without swimming, steam baths or saunas? It could be an enormous problem because your scalp may not get wet for a week or two after the procedure. You also should give up doing heavy exercises or dying hair for several days after each session and avoid sunshine, too.
- And last not least - Are you short of money or are you a skinflint? Well, scalp micropigmentation isn't gratis. Prices run in thousands, they depend on the size of the tattooed area. But this cost includes permanent hair for minimum 3 years up to 8 years if you don´t mind fading colours. (Colours can be revived each 3 years for perfect shadow.) The cheaper eventuality is SMP abroad.
When You Do Not Have It Do (Not) Draw It?
Some thick- haired people maybe cannot understand the misery of someone who is not gifted with beautiful hair. But at special clinics they have sympathy and understanding. New hair often has a strong impact on all aspects of a client's life.
