Is it possible to do SMP on my temples? Will it look natural and good?

juneronan
I am a male with long hair and good hairline but it is thin and I always suffered from thin hair and my scalp being visible. I want to get SMP for a while to add density to my hair. I want to get it starting from 0.3inch (7.5mm) behind my hairline to my crown area. But many technicians told me that the ink will not look natural on the temple area, keep in mind that I will not do my hairline just behind it. So is it ok to do SMP on my temple area?
