How to Choose a Natural SMP Hairline (and what to avoid)
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a great solution for men looking to improve their appearance after hair loss and who want to keep a natural appearance.
SMP creates the illusion of a closely shaved head and is, therefore, an optimal choice for those concerned about hair loss.
The most crucial aspect of the entire process is choosing the right hairline – something that’s done before the technician begins working.
What You Need to Know Before Getting a Hairline Tattoo
SMP is a non-surgical solution to hair loss that is semi-permanent and lasts four to six years on average. It is a great treatment for men looking to improve their appearance and confidence.
A trained technician uses a micro-needle to place hundreds of tiny dots of pigment into the top layers of the scalp. Some fading of the ink may occur over time, and touch-ups are a normal part of long-term upkeep.

The Procedure
It takes two or three sessions to complete a hairline tattoo.
The good news is you’ll see an immediate difference after only one treatment.
Your SMP technician enhances the pigmentation during follow-up sessions to create a seamless transition with your existing hair. It’s these small details that give you a full, natural look.
So, if you’re considering a hairline tattoo, be sure to go to a qualified technician who can give you the results you want.
Enjoying a New Confidence
After the final session has been completed, it takes most people around four days to heal. Once the healing process is complete, most men find their confidence restored in day-to-day life. No more worrying about thinning hair, crooked hairlines, or saying no to fun activities because your comb-over won’t stay in place.
Choose a Natural Hairline for SMP (Hairline Tattoos)
As noted before, your technician will work with you to choose a hairline style that works best for you.
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all process.
When it comes to really great scalp micropigmentation, chosen hairline aesthetics are just as important as technical skills. The shape of your head, your age, your natural hairline, and your lifestyle are all considerations when deciding on the right hairline.
Different Options for Your New Hairline
Knowing the different options before choosing a SMP hair is extremely important. There are a few basic hairline shapes that can help you decide which type of style you’re looking for overall.
The 'Ol Natural" Hairline
A very slightly receding hairline is a trendy barbershop cut known for a slight edge at the front of the hairline with a feathered (soft) front. This more delicate type of defining line creates a more natural-looking design, which is usually the most unnoticeable to people who don’t know you had the procedure.
The "Defined" Look
Unlike the previous style, a defined hairline puts the emphasis on the edges of the hairline which is typically known as the “defined barbershop look”. At Scalps, we have mastered how to achieve a defined hairline without oversaturating the area.
No need to settle
Some men have embraced their receded hairline their whole life.
Changing it would look unnatural and maybe even make them feel less confident than they were before. If a receded or imperfect hairline is part of what defines you, we don’t want to change that.
Your SMP specialist will work with you to recreate a slightly improved but still natural-looking hairline that doesn’t make you feel like a fraud.
If you’re not 100% sure about which hairline is right for you, don’t worry. Your specialist can begin the first session, and the two of you can make adjustments as you go. With your input and the skills of an SMP expert, you’re sure to get the perfect results you deserve.
