Is This Course Right for You?

This training is perfect for anyone who wants to build a rewarding career in scalp micropigmentation — whether you’re completely new or looking to add SMP to your existing beauty or barbering business.

Suitable for:

  • Beginners with no tattoo experience.

  • Barbers, tattooists, or PMU artists expanding skills.

  • Anyone ready to start a profitable SMP clinic.

    What You’ll Learn

    Our mission is to ensure every student leaves our SMP training confident, capable, and ready to begin performing treatments immediately. We follow a carefully structured curriculum that includes both online pre-study and in-person practical training with real clients.

    Throughout the course, you’ll learn the same professional techniques our team uses daily to achieve natural, realistic results for every client. You’ll gain not only the how-to of SMP, but also deep understanding of skin anatomy, pigment behaviour, machine control, and design theory — plus, what mistakes to avoid.

    We see many SMP correction cases every year, and our goal is to make sure you never repeat the common errors we fix.

    No prior experience is required — we teach you the correct methods from scratch, step by step.

    When you complete the course, you’ll receive an official Head Ink SMP Certification, continued mentorship from our trainers. You’ll also receive a professional starter kit, stocked with only the highest quality tools and pigments — exactly what we use in our clinic.

  • Potential Earnings as an SMP Artist

    Scalp Micropigmentation is one of the few career paths where your training investment can pay itself off within your first few clients.

    The average SMP treatment typically ranges from $1,800 to $3,000 per client — or roughly $250+ per hour, depending on your location and experience.

    Even as a new artist, taking just one client per week at $2,200 each can generate over $110,000 per year, with absolutely no cap on your earning potential once you build your reputation.
