How Scalp Micropigmentation Helps with Longer Hair
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a great way to add the natural look of density to existing hair. With careful and precise application, anyone can receive treatment with remarkably natural results. For this type of treatment, we aim to complement the client’s existing hair and hairline. For this to be possible, the client must have some diffuse thinning with an intact hairline. Because Scalp Micropigmentation treatments do not add any physical length to existing hair, there must be an all-over distribution of existing hair in order to achieve a completely natural look.
Although a fully shaven head is most common for Scalp Micropigmentation, many clients receive treatment to add density to thinning hair or bald spots, in which case shaving is not necessary. For this kind of treatment to have a natural appearance, it is actually necessary to have hair distributed all over the head.
The Best Hair Types for Adding Density
At Nick SMP we are able to work with clients of all skin tones, textures, hair colors, and types of hair loss.
When it comes to the type of hair loss you have, diffuse thinning and general pattern hair loss, hair is typically more or less thinned out rather than balding in one concentrated area. This allows our technicians to fill in these areas where there may be thinning hair and the scalp is showing through.
9 Scalp Micropigmentation Facts
When it comes to hair loss or shedding that’s been caused by periods of physiological or hormonal stress, it’ll end up depending on whether your hair will grow back and how much hair you lost in the first place.
Unfortunately, if you have general thinning alopecia, in which a person has several spots of complete hair loss that sometimes change location, you will ultimately have to shave the entire head and then receive treatment because spots will move, and we want the treatment to be a continuous, consistent solution. If you have this kind of hair loss, adding density as a treatment may not be the solution for you. Here are a couple more examples of hair loss that may not work with this treatment:
Complete hair loss:
- if you are experiencing complete hair loss (or the hair around the crown is not intact), we recommend asking our team about a full Scalp Micropigmentation treatment in which shaving the head is required.
Larger balding spots:
- Larger balding spots are not ideal to receive Scalp Micropigmentation for density because the areas that receive the Scalp Micropigmentation treatment will be too noticeable if there are long strands of hair surrounding the bald spots. However, this type of hair loss is ideal to receive a full Scalp Micropigmentation treatment in which the entire head is shaved.
Simulation-consultation
Here at Nick SMP, we offer a simulation-consultation, where you can come to our studio and check how SMP potentially may look in you before it becomes permanent. Our primary objective is that our clients receive a treatment that is both natural-looking and long-lasting. In order for our clients to receive a successful treatment, it is imperative that there is an even distribution of remaining hair. If you have larger balding spots or your hairline is not intact, you may want to consider a full Scalp Micropigmentation treatment.
Another point we keep in mind is that if you experience more hair loss or want to move to a shaved head look, the Scalp Micropigmentation treatment should be versatile in any situation. If either of these concerns is expressed by a client, we may shave the entire head of someone who simply wants density because we want the client to have a long-lasting solution that will continue to compliment their look, even if the bald spots keep growing.
