Advice/experience on mixing "permanent" and temporary SMP


Recommended Posts

hi all, i'm based out in CA and like the idea of trying out temporary SMP first before committing, and i like the results better from the many pics ive seen. however, i think the scar from HT would best be done with the more permanent solution so as not to worry about that fading.

 

has anyone done it this way? pros/cons? would appreciate it. hoping to do it sometime this yr

Never seen it done this way but it is an interesting idea. I don't have ht scars so do not know from personal experience, but i do know a guy who had a pretty significant linear scar and had permanent smp and it just came out looking very dark and blue-ish.

It was not a great outcome...

So id just be careful in my selection process and make sure you are able to view some results on scars in person before you commit. Scar tissue is much less predictable to tattoo and can be tricky.

 

I think it is a good idea doing the temporary smp first. That way if you do not like the shaved head/smp look you don't have to live with it for too long.

 

The downside, I feel, of mixing providers (permanent and temporary) would be financial; probably would be less expensive option to go to one provider who offers both temporary and permanent and have permanent on scar and temp on the remainder of scalp if that is what you decide to do. Would be much easier and convenient to go to one place also.

 

HIS Hair offers both options~ Temporary and Permanent~ you could check them out...lots of locations, some better than others.
