The Subtle Transformation: What People May Say About Your SMP

Embracing the Quiet Revolution: No Comment at All

SMP is a transformation that’s both dramatic and subtle. It’s a drastic change in the sense that it frames your face anew, yet it’s incredibly subtle, especially if you maintain a close-cropped look. When your native hair is kept short and tight, often shaved down with a 0 guard, it becomes nearly impossible for anyone to discern where your real hair ends and your SMP treatment begins. Many clients are astonished when those closest to them remain completely oblivious. In my case, even my wife, who was then my girlfriend, had no clue for a full year until I finally revealed my secret. She loves my shaved look and can’t imagine it any other way.

Puzzled Pause: People May Comment, But Not Sure What

Most of our clients experience this intriguing phenomenon. People within your inner circle might sense that something about you has changed, but they can’t quite put their finger on it. This is why I personally enjoy keeping my SMP treatment a well-guarded secret. Knowing something that others don’t can be quite amusing. They might make comments about you appearing healthier, happier, or even younger, but the mystery remains unsolved. This happens when your SMP treatment is performed by a skilled artist who ensures it’s indistinguishable from natural hair.

Breaking the Ice: “Why Don’t You Grow Your Hair Out?”

Working in corporate America for many years with SMP on my head has been an interesting experience. It should reassure those considering SMP that it’s truly undetectable. Colleagues often ask, “Why don’t you grow your hair out?” My go-to response is usually, “I feel less distracted and more focused when I simply shave off my hair.” Feel free to borrow this response; no credit necessary.

Standing in the Spotlight: People Think You Just Made the Bold Choice to Shave Your Head

Ultimately, the goal of SMP is to create the illusion that you’ve boldly chosen to shave your head. At Elegant SMP, we take pride in our “faded hairline technique,” which achieves an incredibly natural and undetectable look. When someone who’s balding decides to embrace the shaved-head look due to distractions, it showcases courage and confidence. With SMP, it brings balance and enhances the other features of your face.

Embrace Your Choice

If you’re confidently bald, that’s fantastic! You’re among the few who are comfortable with their image, and that’s something to celebrate. However, if hair loss distracts you and you’re looking to frame your face and enhance your appearance, consider SMP. Elegant SMP, located in Buffalo, NY, offers the best SMP techniques and equipment to deliver the most natural-looking results. It’s your choice to embrace your baldness or enhance your look with SMP, and we’re here to support you on that journey.

In the end, the comments you receive post-SMP are a testament to the incredible transformation that can be achieved with this procedure. Whether you choose to keep it a secret or proudly share your experience, remember that it’s your confidence and happiness that truly matter.

Hey there Tommy I love the natural look that you provide. The mock up is a great sales tactic,especially when people like myself are nervous about getting it done. I have seen great Smp and terrible ones. Looking at your work I would have to say your skill is by far the best in the industry. As soon as I am less busy I am definitely coming to see you! Have a great day 😊!

Tommy T you’ve changed my life. I put all my trust in you and you made me so comfortable with this process. The reason I selected you is you want to master this art and customized a process to meet my specific needs. When I look in the mirror and am confused that I have hair or a hair line now that says a lot. Honestly I see you as the go to SMP artist in the future. All of your studying on this will pay huge dividends and you are able to change people’s lives which is so powerful. Thank you for treating my head like your own. God bless you and if you ever need a reference or anything I’d be thrilled to do so. Thanks again Tommy

Elegant SMP is the place to get your scalp micropigmentation if you are interested in quality technique. Not all SMP is the same and your practitioner's training really does matter. For me, understanding how my artist could achieve an authentic looking hairline was very important, and very few SMP artists have the training to achieve that. Tommy at Elegant SMP is a true professional who understands how to get a natural looking result that is difficult to replicate - which is a true testament to his training. My SMP results exceeded my expectations and I would recommend Elegant SMP to anyone who is interested in getting the highest quality work the first time, or repairing SMP work that missed the mark.
