Overview
A Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) Technician is a specialist who applies micropigmentation (tattooing) to the scalp to simulate the appearance of fuller hair. SMP is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure used to restore the look of hairlines, conceal thinning areas, or provide a close-cropped buzz-cut effect for individuals experiencing hair loss. Technicians use specialized needles and pigments to replicate hair follicles, helping clients achieve a natural, fuller look without the need for surgery.
Job Description

- Assess clients' hair loss patterns, scalp conditions, and aesthetic goals to design a personalized treatment plan.
- Select and mix pigments to match the client's natural hair color, ensuring a seamless and realistic appearance.
- Maintain a clean and sterile work environment, following all health and safety protocols.
- Provide pre-treatment consultations to clients, explaining the process, aftercare, and expected results.
- Assist clients with post-treatment care instructions to ensure proper healing and optimal results.
- Conduct follow-up appointments to assess progress, make touch-ups, and refine results.
