Do I qualify for hair tattooing?

Anyone who is suffering from baldness, alopecia, or thinned hair can qualify for hair tattooing. SMP can be used to correct a receding hairline, create an illusion of hair in case of balding, or provide a fuller look for people with thinner hair. However, keep in mind that if you are suffering from scalp acne or other scalp problems you should avoid getting a hair tattoo until the breakout fades. Also, if your skin is prone to keloids, you might not be a good candidate for scalp micropigmentation.
