Weighing Quality vs Price

Choose your provider based on experience, not price

In Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), the lure of low prices can be tempting, but often indicates a lack of experience. While cheaper options may save money initially, they frequently lead to poor results and costly corrections. 

Quality SMP is an investment in skilled artistry, precision, and lasting satisfaction. Remember, the cheapest option can end up being the most expensive if it requires fixing. Choose seasoned professionals for results that stand the test of time.

Major Cities vs. Local Studios
Best Value, Results, or Both?

Many believe that getting SMP in a major city guarantees better results, but the truth is that a high-end address often comes with an inflated price tag—not necessarily superior work. At SCALPS, we take a different approach.

By strategically choosing our locations, we eliminate the unnecessary overhead costs that big-city clinics pass on to their clients. This means you get award-winning SMP & Beautiful Studios, at a price that makes sense, without compromising on quality. Our expertise and dedication are what set us apart—not our zip code.
