Thank you for watching my SMP journey. I wanted to share this experience with you, to help others who may have suffered from the same problems as myself. Losing your hair, for some people can be a traumatic experience and really affect your confidence, which it did with me. I hope this video makes people feel more at ease and gives some useful information about using SMP as an option for hair loss.

He looked great with a bald head anyway tho. He's got nice facial features so he would look good no matter what he had on his head. Imho, if we're talking solely about looks here, he definitely didn't need it. He's one of the lucky ones- a bald head suits him.

@MattBlackUK 2 года назад

Sorry to hear that mate. I was very clear about what I wanted with my artist and showed her lots of examples. Did you do plenty of research on the artist? Ideally they need to aim for something that fits the shape of your head and your age, and ensure they stagger the hairline so it doesn't look like a straight line.

Your video is brilliant makes me more comfortable to get it done. Your price you paid is so much cheaper than the big companies.

I'm wondering if I could still get something tatted after the SMP is all complete. Whatcha think?

@MattBlackUK 4 месяца назад

Thank you 🙏 - I did actually consider head tattoos as I have always liked what Travis Barker had done. I wouldn't object to it, but I'm happy with my SMP at the moment.

The average in the north of England is around £1500-£3500 depending on how many sessions you need and your location. I didn't go to a large company. It's a studio run by one artist so it cost me £1200 for 3 sessions. Try anti shine moisturiser. I use the Loreal Men Expert Pure & Matte anti shine moisturiser, and it's excellent. Smells amazing too.

Now, I'm looking into SMP simply to cover the scarring, both donor and recipient areas. I care much less about hair these days. I only care I did something about it. Now I feel like I have to hide my original mistake. But your SMP looks MUCH better than others I've seen on the net. Especially your 2 yrs out video. Subtle look is the best look.

I shave my head and mine looks like this and the top of mine grows but I know I want this look and my hair has been thinning but would be silly to have it done now when the top of my head still grows with hair?

@MattBlackUK 2 года назад

Hi, yes you can still have it done and it just adds to the density. I have areas that grow thinner hair on top and it actually helps the SMP look better.

Looks great, way better than mine which looked like I had hair implants that failed to grow. :) Had it lasered off. Does it still hold after this time?

@MattBlackUK 6 месяцев назад

Sorry to hear you didn't receive good results. Yes it's still going strong, I'm guessing I may consider a top up in the next year or two but for now I'm still happy with the results and current condition. If you are unhappy I would definitely think about having it removed and redone by a better artist. I hope you get the results you're looking for 🤞

Hi, it's just the same legal requirements for having a tattoo 😊

Hey Matt! Just curious…knowing that this decision is permanent, did that concern you at all? What made you decide to go for it? Thanks!

@MattBlackUK 2 года назад

Hi Jacob. It's a semi permanent ink, so it will eventually fade over time and require a 1 session top up. But this could be due any time within 3-5 years. Regular tattoo ink spreads and migrates, so would not be suitable for SMP as eventually it would make all my head look like I'm wearing a helmet, so that's why they use the semi permanent ink as it fades away before that can happen. I decided to go for it because I wanted that shape to my face again and I'm still happy with my results. I'll be doing a 1 year update this summer 🙂

you can have it laser tattoo removal for a couple hundred bucks if you don't like it.

@MattBlackUK 2 года назад

That's true. I had a crappy tattoo removed from my right arm from when I was 18 and followed trends. It's been covered over now. I imagine it would be easy to get rid of the SMP. I'm not sure if it would be comfortable though on the head haha
