concepts
I have a fair complexion, fine, graying brown hair and wanna buzz at number 1, but I have several HT scars and low density areas behind a reasonable hairline. I wonder what you make of these statements
a) dots turn into blobs with time
b) a shading effect is better than blobs
c) Tatts look darker and lighter than the surroundig hair depending on the light conditions. Simply by twisting you neck the scar looks lighter or darker than the surrounding skin. How do you address this?
d) All blacks, greys eventually go blueish
e) given that tatts lose up to 50% of their color after a few weeks, there is no sense in trying to match the tones during the consultation. You have to estimate the fade and then compensate for it. As each person is different, how to you get around this? A test patch?
MY Story
A few years ago, Ht'd but running out of grafts, hoping to shave or buzz, I had fine dots tatooed on my scars. The dots dissolved into bigger blobs which were noticable. I was called out on them several times. Not good - so I lasered them off. Some remained and the the remaining blur does help. It gives me the impression that a graduated effect maybe better than dots - a kind of shading. As my hairline is fine, and being HT hair should remain so, the area behind it, as well as the scars is my target area. I haven't given up on the idea that tatts could considerably help me, especially with greying hair.
