The treatment

The look of hair, dot by dot.

Scalp micropigmentation places thousands of tiny pigment dots in the scalp to copy the look of hair follicles, so a thinning or bald scalp reads as a full, freshly buzzed head of hair.

Each dot is placed by hand, in different sizes and shades, so the result has real depth up close and in daylight.

Your hairline

Designed for your face.

Your hairline is drawn on and agreed with you in the mirror before any pigment goes in. These are the three styles most people choose from.

Soft

A natural, slightly broken edge, like hair that has grown out for a few days. The hardest to tell apart from real hair.

Defined

A crisp, clean edge, like a fresh line-up from the barber. Sharp and deliberate.

Mature

Set a little higher at the temples, the way most hairlines naturally sit with age. Often the best choice from your mid-thirties on.

The process

From consultation to finished result.

  1. 01

    Free consultation

    About 30 minutes

    We look at your hair loss, design a hairline to suit your face and age, and give you a clear price.

  2. 02

    Three sessions

    2–4 hours each · 1–2 weeks apart

    Each session builds more depth, so the finished result looks natural up close.

  3. 03

    Aftercare

    28 days after each session

    Keep your scalp dry for 4 days, then a few simple steps while it settles.

  4. 04

    Your result

    Healed in 4–6 weeks

    A final review of your healed result, and top-ups whenever you need them.

After each session

How it heals.

  1. Day 0

    Fresh and defined

    Your scalp looks a little red, and the dots look sharp and slightly darker than they'll end up.

  2. Days 1–4

    Keep it dry

    Redness settles within a day or two. No washing, sweating or sun while the pigment settles.

  3. Days 5–10

    Softening

    Gentle washing again. Tiny flakes fall away and the dots soften towards their final shade.

  4. Weeks 4–6

    Healed

    The dots settle to their final, natural shade, ready for your review or your next session.

Questions

Good to know.

Anything else? Message us on Instagram @blacklineclinic or send us a message.

When do bookings open?

We'll email the waitlist as soon as dates are confirmed, before they're announced anywhere else.

Where are you?

Milton Keynes. You'll get the full address when you book.

Does it hurt?

Most people describe it as uncomfortable rather than painful, and you can take a break whenever you need one.

How long does it last?

Many years. It softens slowly over time, so most people have a top-up every few years.

Will it look natural?

Done well, yes. Dots are layered in different sizes and shades, and your hairline is designed to suit your face and age.

Do I need to shave my head?

For the full look, yes. SMP copies a close-cut head of hair, so most clients keep it buzzed. If you're having density work, you can keep your hair longer.

Can it be removed?

It's designed to last, but it can be lightened or removed with laser tattoo removal if you ever need to.

Is SMP right for me?

It suits most kinds of hair loss, but not everyone. Your free consultation is where you'll get an honest answer before you commit to anything.
