Hair tattoos should be created by a specialist scalp micropigmentation technician because a hair tattoo is not just a tattoo in the traditional sense. You can’t expect to have SMP (also referred to as scalp micropigmentation) from a tattoo studio because a scalp micropigmentation procedure is carried out differently.
However, people quite often make the mistake of assuming a hair tattoo is where designs are cut or shaved into the hair to create a different hair style but that isn’t the case.A hair tattoo can cover all of your scalp if you are bald – it’s very popular worldwide. A hair tattoo procedure can also be used on parts of the scalp that are either thinning, receding or balding. Scars to the scalp can also be camouflaged using scalp pigmentation (SMP).MICRONEEDLES FOR SMPA microneedle is used to delicately tattoo a pigment into the scalp and a carefully planned out hair tattoo is gradually formed of specially pigmented hair follicles in the applied area of the scalp. As a result, what you then see is realistic impression of a full head of hair – a remarkable appearance.

So in essence, a hair tattoo can be used to camouflage the scar, and the hair can then be styled very short if you prefer, in a buzz cut styled short, with no worries whatsoever.
