Scalp Tattooing
Scalp Micropigmentation-the process
• it is a commitment - not a one-off treatment. Remember scalp Tattooing does not wash off!
• you must be over 18 years of age as SMP falls under the Tattooing of Minors Act
• a consultation and patch test must be carried out prior to treatment
• your technician will give you an honest opinion of the predicted outcome and the stages required
• your medical history will be checked and any contraindications discussed
• a treatment plan will be drawn up with predicted results-hairlines, colours and density-which will be discussed at this stage
• existing hair may need to be cut or shaved (Male clients!) before treatments commence and this is one reason why your consultation is vital prior to treatment
• your technician will advise on a realistic expectation from the treatment. Be guided by her experience, a treatment will not proceed if expectations are not realistic
• aftercare is key to achieving the best possible finish. Do not pick or scratch the tattooed area. Disturbing it while healing may cause fading
• after a few days you may notice done peeling, there is no need to panic, this is all part of the normal healing process
• a timely colour boost is essential
