Scalp Micro Pigmentation - Have You or Know Someone Who 's Used?

Did it work to cover up their baldness? How much did it cost? Asking for a mate who recently became single, is rapidly losing his hair and is down in the dumbs :(

Cheers,

    Microblading you mean? Not sure about cost, but I believe it is super effective. Girls are doing it on their brows for so long now, definitely workable on the head. I just recently watched the Try Guys doing it: Part 1, Part 2

    • Is that what it's called here?

      Watching the youtube videos now.Thanks

      • I watched too many youtubers doing it and that's what they called it. I guess it's the same thing. From google searches it looks like AU calls it micro pigmentation. It's also called hair tattoo.

        I'm sure there will be others with experience, there is no way you're not balding after hunting for bargains here LOL

        • FOMO makes sure all your hairs don't grow.

    Shave it bald. Confidence > combover.

    • That was my advice too …and he now looks like his dad.It's aged him so much😳

      • Looking like a mature male. Oh the horror. Whatever will he do.

    Second tshow. Confidence is more versatile, and cheaper to boot.

    Became Single? The best thing that could ever happen to a man IMO.

    I've been going bald since I was 18, now in my late 30's I've totally embraced it.

  • Mike Gunner from Married at first sight had this. Some said it looked weird up close. For some reason he had very sharp triangular temples left, but otherwise it looked OK-good from a distance.

    • I don't watch MAFS and I had to google him. First result that came up was :

      Married At First Sight's Mike Gunner is now a professional model

      Can't look all that bad if he's now doing modelling🤨

      Edit: Found a before and after his hair tattoo.

      • Once he tries to fix his balding issue (which is worrying about how other people view him, worried about being judged for something absolutely normal for men), he's going to get grey hair, and so it continues with all the concerns about his hair and aging and how he looks to others.

        Which is why shaving it down will solve both problems if he's willing to embrace it.

      I imagine because up close he has actual stubble/texture in areas and then other areas are completely smooth but coloured. One of those looks good from a few metres away or in pics but looks wrong when really up close.

      Being bald/balding doesn't have the stigma it once did, in fact it's somewhat fashionable I think with plenty of men who have full heads of hair shaving it. It's a very personal thing to come to terms with and you can spend a lot of money chasing solutions which have varying degrees of success but really, once you accept it and go with it, the best solution really is to just shave it or at least go down to a very close stubble. It's what I did and don't regret it at all, in fact I wish I'd done it sooner.

    I’m glad to hear he chose the cat in the end.
