Are SMP Needles Different Than Tattoo Needles?
Our micro needles are 80% smaller than standard tattoo needles and we can adjust needle size based on your particular follicle size, shape, and pattern. This is to ensure we provide an undetectable look that replicates your natural hair follicles almost flawlessly. We use one of the smallest and the most advanced needles in the industry and combined with our experience, we are able to create the most natural hair follicle replications out of any competitor in the business.
Does My Hair Color Matter With SMP?
We are experienced professionals at matching colors, skin tones, and follicles. We use specialized ink that is divided into 10 different blends on multiple levels, allowing us to mix and match them correctly to create any color or shade. Our experience allows us to not only match the color of your follicle but also to match the size and shape, giving you the most realistic hairline possible.
What Conditions Can Scalp Micropigmentation Treat?
SMP can treat the following conditions:
• Alopecia
• Male pattern baldness
• Receding hairlines
• Thinning hair
• Crown hair loss
• Head trauma. Surgical scars or scarring from burns, accident/injury, or medical condition

What Is The Difference Between Choosing A Tattoo Artist Or A Certified SMP Artist?
Will People Notice That I Have A Tattoo On My Head
The look we provide is unbelievably authentic and realistic. Unless you tell them, people will have no clue. Not one client we have treated has been noticed. It actually makes you look much younger with a more natural hairline. Check out our photo gallery. The most common responses are “You should shave your head like that more often” or “You look a lot younger, what did you do?” But they can never pinpoint what you did exactly. The only time anyone will be able to notice you had something done is if you go to an artist who has not been properly trained or doesn’t have enough experience. With all 5-star reviews, that will never happen here at SCALPS!
Am I Able To See The Previous Work Of The Person Doing My Procedure?
Yes, please ask to see the artist’s portfolio of work. We’d be happy to show you our portfolio of images and videos from years of completed work. Most of our procedures in New Jersey are done by Alex, who is the Founder of SCALPS and is one of the most trusted SMP artists in the world. We do not take this lightly and would not allow anyone without the proper experience or training to work with our clients. Follow Our Social Media Pages for more information
