Scalp micropigmentation scar repair with short length hair?

December 4, 2016
Asked By:gromace in San Jose, CA

I have a linear & Fue scars. My FUE dr said my scar is not bad at all and that smp would work well for me. I have been wearing my sides long ever since (#5), would having SMP allow me to cut my hair shorter to a #2 or even 1 guard? Or would smp just add density and i would still have to wear my hair long? Are there any examples of smp over scars with short trimmed hair? I just want to get a realistic sense before considering smp. Thank you for your time
