Vision Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I did find some searching... It looks like our best bet on this is to take a shot with stage-makeup style skin dyes... This is the kind you can put in an airbrush for fake tattoos (like at fairs/carnivals and stuff), or you can also rub it on with sponges, brushes, or fingertips. A couple drops will spread over a large area. Check this out: http://shop.temptu.com/p-33-sb-foundations.aspx Look at the different shades... I would say the the 010: Cappuccino or the 011: Dark Cocoa would be good for most mid-brown-colored guys' hair, but really dark-haired guys might want to try the 012: Espresso. I found the 011: Dark Cocoa color on eBay for $18 instead of the steeper $25 that the retail site wants. I am ordering one now, I will post pics for you guys if anything good comes of it. Then we will maybe look for a cheaper alternative. One other option I've wondered about would be Henna ink; It is dark brown, nontoxic, and lasts for a whopping 1-3 weeks... But how would it look on a pale white scalp? Would it look orange That would be horrid! But I will be your guinea pig, so to speak. I found some http://cgi.ebay.com/Instant-MEHNDI-HENNA-PASTE-Temporary-Tattoo-Ink-BodyArt_W0QQitemZ110322806028QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item110322806028&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1205%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A1%7C293%3A1%7C294%3A50, and I will order a small tube to try it, in a small area first, then with more coverage if it works well enough. If one of these options works, it could be a great temporary solution for the whole mid-scalp-thinning problem until my savings CD matures in 10 months and I buy a $10,000 FUE hair transplant. And while you're waiting, you guys could try and scout out some other types/brands of skin ink; I found a thread here, in a forum for stage-actors and models and tattoo artists, that says that alcohol-based skin-ink lasts the longest. You could search for something like that, too. Wish me luck, and check back over the next week or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
