One in five people will experience hair loss. If it’s happening to you, please know you are not alone and you are not without options.

When people start losing their hair, it often comes with a sense of dread and hopelessness. Most think their only options are to cover the loss with wigs or to undergo surgical procedures which may not be effective. This can make the trauma of hair loss, particularly due to illness, even more frightening.

The good news is that technology has evolved, and in recent years, the industry has evolved to include scalp micropigmentation (SMP), which can give you the appearance of fuller hair, even after your natural hair has all fallen out. Most people have never heard of SMP, or simplify it down to the idea that it’s “just a tattoo", but it is so much more for the people who have received the treatment.

Whether you are struggling with expected hair loss as a man of a certain age or if you were blindsided by it early in life, this book will help you see if scalp micropigmentation is right for you and how you can make sure you find an artist you can trust.

Scalp micropigmentation artist Jennelle Harris Martinez brings her decades of experience to you in an accessible guide for anyone looking for options to deal with hair loss.
