Have you been thinking about getting Scalp Micropigmentation done and not sure how to find the Best Scalp Micropigmentation Artist in your area? Are you bombarded by information on Youtube? Maybe I can help. As a professional that has been practicing and researching the best techniques for the past 4 years i have seen just about everything and heard multiple misleading information in regards to the Best Scalp Micropigmentation out there and wanted to give my view. As in any tattoo or body art, It is important to be diligent in choosing an artist that can get the look that you desire, as it is a permanent solution to hair loss and/or hair thinning.
First things first, EVERYONE practicing claims that they are the Best Scalp Micropigmentation artist out there. There is a growwing community of Scalp Micropigmentation or SMP artists out there and competition is growing amongst all potential earners in the community. Most try to deter you from going to any other shop, by selling you the claim that they have awards, a patented formula, know i guy that did Vin Diesel (I’ve heard that about 6 different times), better technique, better ink , better needles…etc… then everyone else…its mostly bullshit.
What it boils down to in my opinion, is if you want the Best Scalp Micropigmentation artist, you need to do as much research as you can. Inquire from a few shops. Read reviews, look at their work, see if pics have been photo shopped. There are a number of “permanent make – up ” shops that for the majority specialize in another area such as brows, eyeliner, and lips that may have added scalp micropigmentation to their list of services. It is important when reading reviews and/ or speaking with a potential artist, that one makes sure that their reviews and work actually reflect SMP and not the majority of another service. For example, If a shop has 52 five star reviews and 50 of them talk about what a great job they did on brows, you may want to find another shop that has more SMP reviews if you are looking for Best Scalp Micropigmentation in your area. Also, Have a conversation with the artist. There is nothing wrong with asking questions. In my opinion, Scalp Micropgmentation is an investment and investments take time and cost money. So, one should be confident in their choice going into the journey of getting the corrective procedure.
Mostly, you’re going to be in the chair for a few hours at a time, so make sure your artist is knowledgeable and personable as well. It is important to find a shop that cares more about the job than the money they will be making off of you, which you should be able to tell by the interactions you have with a potential artist. Think of it as an interview. One thing you want to avoid, is getting a bad job because the person was new or just plain in fact didn’t know what they were doing. (Their are A LOT of them at the moment). Scalp Micropigmentation is a fairly new proceedure, so In my opinion, there are more and more people getting into the industry, but not a lot of people doing it well. LASER removal is costly, painful, and takes time after for recovery to be able to fix after the fact. I would say estimate that 22% of my business is fixing work from other shops mostly out of state. ( I am in Florida.)
So in conclusion, if you want to find the Best Scalp Micropigmentation artist or shop, do your research, interview your artist or shop, look at their body of work, and make sure you are comfortable with the artist before hand. Most artist have an Instagram or website that you can view and also read their Google Reviews. I cannot stress the importance of this enough. I also cannot tell you how many clients came to be because I actually returned their phone call, answered all their questions and was upfront about the price of the service. Anyone rushing you into a decision, I would probably stay away from. Remember folks, Slow is smooth, and smooth is fast. I hope this article was helpful in finding The Best Scalp Micropigmentation for you!
