WHAT IS SMP?

SMP is a semi-permanent solution for people experiencing hair loss, hairline recession, and/or desire the appearance of fuller hair volume. Tattooed dots on the scalp simulate the appearance of follicles, increasing hairline volume, improving the hairline shape, camouflaging scars, and enhancing symmetry of the natural hair pattern. 

SMP tattoos are designed to blend seamlessly with the clientโ€™s natural hair growth to create an "invisible" enhancement. 

Both natural and stylized hairline styles are possible. Hairline styles are mapped, shaped, and custom-designed for each client. 

WHAT YOUโ€™LL LEARN:

โœ”๏ธ RealTintยฎ PULSE Fundamentals

โœ”๏ธ SMP Hairline Design Basics

โœ”๏ธ SMP Dot Pattern Creation

โœ”๏ธ Guided Practice: Machine Angle, Hand Speed, and Pressure

โœ”๏ธ Skin Anatomy

โœ”๏ธ Mistakes to Avoid

โœ”๏ธ Client Consultation, Aftercare, and Business Skills

WHY AUTO-SMP?

SMP is very in-demand, however very few professionals are capable of creating desirable results. SMP is a high-ticket service. 

With the introduction of machine-automated SMP tattooing, artists are less likely to encounter mistakes caused by human error. 

Your RealTintยฎ PULSE machine will create perfectly round dots so you donโ€™t have to create perfect dots by hand.

This workshop is focused, hands-on, and designed to give you practical skills you can continue building immediately after class.

You will receive a certificate upon completion of this workshop.
