No medications, no waiting for hair transplant grafts, and no reliance on creams or camouflaging products. This efficient method quickly enhances patchy beards with the illusion of added hair using pigments, requiring just two to three brief sessions.


As men transition through puberty, their beards gradually begin to grow, with the outcome of thick or sparse growth remaining unpredictable. It may take several years for a beard to reach its full potential, with thickness fluctuating over time. However, encountering hair loss in the beard can be distressing, especially in today's culture where a well-groomed beard is highly valued and often considered a symbol of status.

Occasionally, men may experience the appearance of circular bald patches within their beard, which can be emotionally challenging. These patches may stem from various factors such as acne scars or alopecia barbae, a subset of alopecia areata characterised by localized hair loss. Although the precise causes of alopecia barbae remain unclear, it is believed to be an autoimmune disorder where the body mistakenly targets its own hair follicles, resulting in defined bald patches similar to circular hair loss on the scalp.

For those facing such concerns, beard micropigmentation offers a straightforward and enduring solution to redefine the appearance of the beard, providing a renewed sense of confidence and vitality.

What is the process of Beard Micropigmentation?

Consultation: The first step is to schedule a No-Obligation and free consultation with us. During this appointment, the SMP artist will discuss the process, recommended number of sessions, desired results, and pricing.

Beard line Design: When you have decided to proceed with getting Beard Micropigmentation, our specialist will draw a personalised design that considers the shape of your head, the natural flow of your hairline, and your preferences for hair density. This ensures that your treatment is tailored precisely to your unique needs and desires.

Aftercare: After each session, you'll need to follow specific aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and optimal results. For the first 3 days this includes avoiding water on the scalp and excessive sweating, sun exposure, and hair products.

While SMP is a long-lasting solution to hair loss, but it may require occasional touch-up sessions from 3-5 years to maintain its appearance over time. The frequency of touch-up sessions will vary depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and desired hair density.

Treatment: The treatment typically involves 2-3 sessions over the course of a few weeks. During each session, our specialist will use micro-needles to apply pigment to the skin, gradually building up the appearance of beard follicles. The treatment is typically painless and requires no downtime, allowing you to resume your daily activities immediately after each session.

Do I need to shave my beard for density treatment?

Discover the wonders of Beard density treatment, where shaving your beard is not a requirement. Unlike the scalp shaved look, our innovative approach focuses on creating the illusion of thicker and denser hair by strategically applying pigment around your existing hair follicles. You can maintain your desired hair length throughout the procedure, maximizing convenience and flexibility.

Frequently asked questions

  • Clients usually require 3-4 sessions. The whole process will take 3-4 weeks, each session 1-2 weeks apart to allow the skin to heal. Depending on the individual and extent of hair loss you should expect the session to last 2-4 hours.

  • Typically, most people will need a touchup session every 3 to 5 years to maintain the colour. Scalp Micropigmentation is a semi-permanent procedure that can last over 10 years with proper care. However, as your skin naturally sheds its layers and absorbs the pigment, the treatment will gradually fade and may need touchups. Individual factors, such as sun exposure and skin type (dry or oily), can influence how quickly this occurs.

    Head Ink SMP offers a 3 month treatment guarantee to cover any fading or changes to hairline.

  • Consultation: The initial step is to arrange a consultation with a Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) specialist. During this meeting, the specialist will evaluate your hair loss and discuss your goals and expectations for the treatment.

    Design: If you decide to proceed with SMP, the specialist will develop a personalised design based on the shape of your head, hairline, and your desired hair density and colour.

    Treatment: SMP typically requires 3-4 sessions over 3-4 weeks. In each session, the specialist uses micro-needles to apply pigment to your scalp, gradually creating the look of hair follicles. The procedure is generally painless with no downtime, so you can continue your daily activities right after each session.

    Aftercare: Following each session, you'll need to adhere to specific aftercare instructions for optimal healing and results. For example, for the first 3 days, avoid getting your scalp wet, sweating excessively, sun exposure, and using hair products.

    Maintenance: While SMP is a durable solution for hair loss, occasional touch-ups may be necessary to maintain its appearance over time. The frequency of touch-ups will depend on factors such as your skin type, lifestyle, and desired hair density.

    Overall, Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a safe and effective method for addressing hair loss, offering natural-looking results with minimal upkeep. If you’re dealing with hair loss, SMP might be the solution you need to restore your confidence and achieve a look you’re happy with.

  • Most clients rate the pain from 2 to 5 out of 10, often describing it as more of an irritating itch than actual pain. The front temples, hairline, and sides of the head are usually the most uncomfortable areas due to the concentration of nerve endings there. For those with very low pain tolerance, numbing cream is available.

  • Most clients resume work the day after their treatment session. Scalp Micropigmentation is a non-invasive, non-surgical procedure with no associated downtime. You will only need to follow the 4-day aftercare instructions provided before each treatment.

  • It’s essential to follow our 4-day post-treatment instructions to avoid excessive fading and contamination. Specifically, this means avoid from touching, washing, cutting your hair, or engaging in workouts during the first 4 days.

  • Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) and hair transplants address hair loss in different ways. SMP is a non-surgical, minimally invasive procedure that uses tiny pigment dots to replicate the appearance of shaved hair, giving the illusion of fuller hair and natural growth. It delivers immediate results with minimal downtime.

    On the other hand, hair transplants involve surgically relocating hair follicles from one area of the scalp to another to encourage natural hair growth. This method is more invasive, with longer recovery periods and potential complications.

    While SMP provides a realistic look of thicker hair, it does not stimulate actual hair growth. Hair transplants can restore real hair growth but may not be suitable for everyone due to factors like cost, recovery time, and variable outcomes. The decision between SMP and hair transplants depends on individual needs and preferences.
