Well you can’t see any scaring if I grow it longer. But I was thinking I actually like getting a fade so maybe smp would help. This is 6 weeks after my second HT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did get in touch with smp aus they have an artist in Sydney not sure if she is on same level as Caitlin James though. Would you risk it? Or is it worth flying down to Adelaide? Also do I need to wait till 12 months to have it done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted May 13 Valued Contributor Share Posted May 13 I think if it was me I would fly to Adelaide again. I know the others girls are well trained by Caitlin and in their own right and I know Leah and Ari. But I am super familiar with Caitlin who has a bucket load of all types of SMP work under her belt and hold's a swag of international awards (for what that's worth).

I have a consult with Ari this week. They said they all have the same skill level as Caitlin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell her I said hello 👋🏼 I’m seeing her on Wednesday I will definitely tell her you said hello! Question though. Should I wait a full 12 months post op before I have smp? Do you think my scars are very noticeable. Also a few ppl said smp goes green or blue after a few years so it can look worse? Is that true?

Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted May 13 Valued Contributor Share Posted May 13 Yes. Wait twelve months. She will tell you this also. As a scar heals it changes during the healing process. You don’t want the ink to change with it. GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
