SMP Starter Kit Includes

SMP TECHNICIAN = ENTREPRENEUR + ARTIST

Transform your career today and change lives!

Scalp Micro SD is an elite training and functioning practice in San Diego specializing in scalp and beard micro pigmentation, solutions for hair thinning and hair loss.

Not only have we been helping customers with scalp micropigmentation procedures for years—but we’ve also taught beginning and advanced artists how to do SMP and succeed in the SMP industry.

DAY 1

Shadow An Expert, Learn The Curriculum

Our Scalp Micropigmentation Training begins with the basics so you can be fully prepared for the hands-on stuff—we are dealing with ink, after all!

We start our three-day program with a shadowing of Alex as he goes through his SMP process. This way, you see the potential of the program, and comprehensively recognize what you can achieve. Plus, you’ll know the questions to ask when we break out of the theory and into the practice for Days 2 and 3.

See, Scalp MicroPigmentation is an art, and every artist requires training. But there’s also a concrete science behind it. And Alex will teach you how to analyze existing hairlines for enhancing, prevent cross-contamination and how to acquire & consult with customers.

Then, Alex will take you through the SMP theoretical curriculum, touching on a variety of crucial topics, like Color Mixing & Theory, Building Your Portfolio, and How To Establish And Grow Your Brand on Social Media.

Social Media Marketing

The secret weapon to nurturing your SMP career growth. Alex has reached millions of users online, drawing attention from all over the world to Scalp MicroSD, which translates to more patients through the door. As the idea of micropigmentation is becoming popularized, now is the ideal time to jump in and establish your voice, audience, and potential customer pool. Alex will teach you how to attract an audience, acquire SMP customers from that crowd, and walk them through the learning process—all the way to their long-awaited procedure.

DAY 2 & 3

This is why people choose us over the online training course. You need hands-on training, especially for the nuanced, multi-step process of creating custom hairlines.

DESIGNING PERFECT HAIRLINES

There are so many types of hairlines, and a micropigmentation procedure lasts for years. You must be able to line it up well—so learn it in person. Every person’s hairline is unique, with several variables to consider: Head Shape, Hair Thickness, Age, and more! We bring in live models—real people who serve as practice patients for our students—and Alex teaches you how to design the best hairlines for their desired look.

INTENSIVE TRAINING FOR BUSY PROFESSIONALS.

We made our training program efficient so we can keep costs affordable. Besides, we have customers to take care of too! And you’ll find that after Day 3 of our comprehensive SMP Training Program, you’ll be ready to market yourself, find customers in need of semi-permanent hair loss solutions, and put your in-depth training to use!
