They kinda go grey and expand, but it still looks fine compared to the skin color the area was before. One thing they didn't mention is that you need to get it topped up every couple of years as it fades rapidly.
it does not really stay for 5 years , it fades maybe after 2 years , and you have to do it again or at least retouch again, i would not advise it to someone who is completly bald ,like the rock for exmp , but maybe if your state is like the guy in the video then it might be great for you , i mad one 4 years ago and its all gone now .
I’ve had smp for nearly 5 years. Faded a bit in the 1st year. But it was to dark in my opinion and the faded look looks in my opinion more natural and subtle. I don’t think it’s really faded at all in the last 3 and a half years to be honest
Ok, ok, but what happens when they inevitably lose the hair? I understand that it's not permanent, but I would be so nervous about my hair falling out and being left with dots all over my head.
Doesn't look as bad. The rest of your hair will eventually 'mask' it. The thing is, they are anyway pigmenting the parts where there is no follicle to give it an appearance of a follicle. Even i for some reason you shave your head (with a 0.5 trimmer), you'll see your natural hair follicles matching the dots and it looks even. The only issue is when the ink fades out, you'll see the colors looking weird and hence a touch-up becomes inevitable
People gotta take into consideration the tedious labor and experience necessary for the procedure costs. It's not a one and done tattoo on a small area of your body. You're paying average $3000 for 3-4 sessions that can take around 2hrs each to complete filling each dot on your scalp to build density and natural pigment patterns. Not as easy as you would think with thousands of hair follicles on your scalp so it's priced accordingly.
I actually had one session done on my crown area. I dont regret but 2 years later my hair is quite normal and not thinning anymore. I mustve bee stressing a lot during that time, who knows if how much of a difference it would look then vs now without that one SMP session I had.
Glad to hear there might be hope for me then. I’m 22 and have had the same thin spot on my crown for 2 years now. Hasn’t really progressed looking at the pictures
why? do you know the amount of dots that are done? do your research. Everything implying the tools, such as the ink, classes and practice that he had to go thru. tipically a $1000 is a steal. each class he took was $3,000 not adding up any of the equipment and luxurious space he build for the client comfortability. seshhh.
@@hay_cicilol maaaaan that shit ain’t worth 1k! You can’t charge me because you had to go to school and practice and buy your tools tf that have to do with me🤷🏽♂️🤣
I'm doing this on myself but the ink will not stay. I know I put it in deep enough, then I don't wash my hair and keep my scalp dry for 4 days, but as soon once I shower a few times after "the healing period"(even though I don't get much scabbing at all), the ink just washes/flakes off...and the whole process ends up being a waste of time😟.
FYI for those of you who are not so sure about committing to this sort of thing: You can achieve an identical result with an eyeliner pen. Don't believe me? Try it. Washes out whenever you want it to, and takes just a few minutes to do daily.
@@julittok Nah, if you're bald to where you need to cover your whole scalp, you need something else. I'm talking about like if you're thinning in certain areas.
If they get close or the light is too strong it looks very bad, it's unnatural to have your scalp full of dots. In a more darker environment it gets the job done. Also if you have lighter hair it is paramount that the person finds the right color or it doesn't look right at all. Finally if you shave your head, that's when this technique really shines.
Multi billion dollar market. They can’t risk all these companies going bankrupt. There is a solution by the government banned it because of lobbyists. It’s called stem cell research injections.
the needle impressions are so fine they won't be recognizable against a shaved scalp.The impressions are the size of a hair follicle. i have had this procedure done on my own scalp and you can't tell the difference between a real follicle and an smp follicle.
Yeah mascara does a good job too for thinning or greying hair its waterproof so you can go for a swim and still works watch my 2 You Tube videos Balding and Greying Dave Kirby if you have no hair on top how to fingerpaint mascara and Balding and Greying part 2 Dave Kirby if you have some hair on top
If you go to the right artist, you don’t just get dots, they create natural looking hair follicles, in case you do want to shave your head in the future, you’ll have what it looks like a buzz cut.
2500 to 6000 wth are u guys thinking. Its freaking tattoo not even a great tattoo cost that much and u wanna charge me for dots. This is why people run away from these things!!
How is this $2500-6000 when you can get you hair back through transplants from the back and sides for $5000 and you can probably find cheaper than that, this is one of the biggest ripoffs I've seen
$2.5 to 6K for dotting the spots? No thanks. Buy yourself hair fiber instead if you have tiny bald spot. Such a rip off. Services from healthcare to beauty in US is clearly ripping off customers. Glad that I don't use any beauty service except body hair removal laser.
I think the issue is that many people after 5-10 years might be going completely bald so there might be concern as other pointed out that if you’ve gone completely and totally bald, permanent dots would love very odd potentially
its because tattoo ink doesn't work the same. it was me running my mouth without knowing any facts. you can dang near do this on yourself or if you know someone that is artistic. its not hard just time consuming. what i find crazy is charging people 6k when you can get a full body tattoo for that. it should be like $150 an hour. only takes them 2 hours to do your head..still a scam and ripping people off. and some how you have to have a special class and a doctor has to be in the building where you do this. But Joe blow can give you a tattoo..i dont understand that logic at all@@brittniep9219
Finally a video I can actually see the work done
I wish they show us long term results, change of colour and what not, how does it age
I just started thinking about this. So I would get them to do it gray or white.

Just shave if that happens
Ik
There is something called the DermiMatch Kit that has all the equipment needed, and they have free training videos online. on youtube actually.
Does SMP have any negative effects on existing hair
No, if anything it encourages growth as it heals as more blood is flowing into your head since the dots are considered a wound.
Is this procedure done numbing the area?. Or without numbing?
Does this create scar tissue in the scalp and thus potentially making a hair transplant less efficient since graft survival is harder in scar tissue?
No unless you are going 2mm deep frequently

SMH bro you might as well get a real hair transplant ( FUE) for 3k! That’s too much for a Tattoo I don’t care what nobody say😂👎🏽💯

What kind of needle, its not a regular tattoo needle?
No, you have to use the 3needles in one.
Hello 😊 what a nidle you use pleas ?? 1RL / 0,30 ?? Thank you 🙏
this procedure is waaay over price. Its literally just some dude doing dots on your head.
nah we're just poor
for real. they are funny
Same as a tattoo artist
It’s not just doing dots, it’s 2 h full with concentration and a lot of back and muscle pain after it 😅
Neh, it’s cost of equipment, supplies, training, long hours, creating natural looking results, trust me, I wouldn’t go to just anyone to get this done
Hallo! Which of the pigments do you use?
You got to pay to find that out, they teach about it and it cost about 1k.
How is the cost?
2 to 5k.
How much does it cost to get it done?
About 3k!👎🏽might as well get a real hair transplant ( FUE )💯
I have bright red hair. Will this look like a bad case of acne or craddle cap on me?
Nowadays, there are many people with hair loss in the East Asia. I am sure this video will be a great inspiration to them.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The price always cracks me up. Anything over a $1000 is laughable.

With what cartridge number should this be done?

Look up natural henna its,less damaging & use black seed oil

There is a product called toppik 4.4 stars. Anybody try it?
A few minutes to cover the entire scalp? I don't think so.
@@julittok Nah, if you're bald to where you need to cover your whole scalp, you need something else. I'm talking about like if you're thinning in certain areas.
Hi
What is that mix with ink before work?
Can an individual go in a chlorinated pool if the head doesn't get wet?
@@jacoboc2244 Even if it's covered?
idk, it looks kinda bad? Does it look better over time?
If they get close or the light is too strong it looks very bad, it's unnatural to have your scalp full of dots. In a more darker environment it gets the job done. Also if you have lighter hair it is paramount that the person finds the right color or it doesn't look right at all. Finally if you shave your head, that's when this technique really shines.
I would love this.
Does this look natural on the temples (sides of the head)?
Yes, for sure
It only helps for short hair Ig?
No, any thin hair where you see the scalp
It never fades completely unless you have it removed. They want you to get it redone after 5-10 years.
The other guy up there in the comments said he retouch every 2y, 5y is a streech.
I was just thinking scalp pigmentation would be a good thing to get prior to a hair transplant.
Hello mate did you get it done?
But this costs $2,500 to $6,000. That's pretty expensive for a temporary solution!
@@rongendron8705 5 - 10 years is a pretty long time
It'd be better to get AFTER a transplant actually since transplants can cause scaring and SMP can camouflage it.
@@ZeoWorks that is exactly how the specialist I spoke with said to proceed
What's the needle number, please?
3 needle liner
I just got SMP for similar reasons.
몇 포인트 니들인가요? 1P or 3P ?
2500$ for this is just high way robbery
You can a transplant in turkey for that
I swear to god😂
@@phantomstreams1311 but u have to take pills for the rest of your life or it will fall off.
After shot is blurried though.
Good job, it looks nice.
Got no it two years ago. Dye washed out-it does not last.
Super hair pigmentation!!!
Its great on buzz cut
I wish I could do this.
Fantastic 🙌🙌
First 🥰 good job ❤️
Nobody cares 🥰 good job ❤️
What happens when your new girlfriend runs her hand through your head & says WTF where is all this hair.
Hahaha trust me. Women have more fake shit on them than men. They will understand.
If not so expensive I would get it done
0:46 that was my only objection, seems alright now
Still confused..why science is not finding solution for permanent hair..
Too many people make too much money most likely
Multi billion dollar market. They can’t risk all these companies going bankrupt. There is a solution by the government banned it because of lobbyists. It’s called stem cell research injections.
Cus too much money to be made in alternative treatments. Why permanently cure something once when you can milk it with temporary fixes?
it looks worst with smp, so weird seeing dots in between long hairs
So like who gives a f***
@@rickandh well then, who gives a f.. when you experience balding
Thats in Long term expensive.
You need ever 2 to 3 Years a new session.
I just use hair fibers. Just make sure you avoid getting your hair wet. 😬
It is good only if you have some hair loss.. For more hair loss it sucks up so much fiber
It's not good for long term use,i used it for long time and I lost alot of hair because of fibre
@@pmh4945 you didn’t lose hair because of the fibers… you lost hair naturally because you were balding. Your genetics made you lose more hair.
@@pmh4945 are you serious? So you blame hair fibers for your hair loss?
@@Dranreb865 i noted when I was using fibres i was losing more hairs...but it did help me to hide bald spot for a about 2 years.
if u age change it white u should use eyebrows liner not tattoo needles
Ok. So. The bad part is when you go bald you will have black dots contrasting your light skin. That is the unforseen negative result for most.
They said it fades over time, so you wouldn't be able to see it anymore.
Sometimes they use this method to fix the hair line even. In my eyes it still looks good.
the needle impressions are so fine they won't be recognizable against a shaved scalp.The impressions are the size of a hair follicle. i have had this procedure done on my own scalp and you can't tell the difference between a real follicle and an smp follicle.
Putting dots under hair for density instead of strokes seems nonsensical to me.
Yeah mascara does a good job too for thinning or greying hair its waterproof so you can go for a swim and still works watch my 2 You Tube videos Balding and Greying Dave Kirby if you have no hair on top how to fingerpaint mascara and Balding and Greying part 2 Dave Kirby if you have some hair on top
Then when the rest falls out you just got a head fulla dots!

Cool idea 💡but before and after.. not that much difference
2500 to 6000 wth are u guys thinking. Its freaking tattoo not even a great tattoo cost that much and u wanna charge me for dots. This is why people run away from these things!!
2000$ lmao. Just get a tattoo with dots

How is this $2500-6000 when you can get you hair back through transplants from the back and sides for $5000 and you can probably find cheaper than that, this is one of the biggest ripoffs I've seen
