SMP Scalp MicroPigmentation for Blondes?

Scalp Micro-Pigmentation for Blondes

Hi Doc. I’m a blonde guy wondering about your Micro-Pigmentation. You can use this image of me if you want (it is my photo and it is of my head):

That photo was taken 9 months after a hair transplant. Obviously its still quite sparse in there. If the 5000 odd transplants don’t take would I be a candidate for Scalp Micro-Pigmentation?

If the grafts do take would, is dermtech or toppik better for a blonde male.

One more question. I have to ask. Like I said its been 9 months since my transplant and I’m not getting much growth. Is it common that people don’t get much growth until around the 9 – 12 month mark.

And are there cases where for some reason, (i.e physical chemistry), that maybe transplants and some people just won’t work? Because to be honest I feel jinxed right now…

Most blond people have a dark root color when the hair exits the scalp and then it is exposed to light, it turns blond. If the hair is shaved, it would show to be a dark grayish/ brown. To test this in response to this question, I cut some hair from my platinum blond wife and I saw that the hair exiting the skin was grey/brown. When it got to a length of 2mm, it turns her platinum blond.

Dermatch or Toppik in blond colors have not been well received by the patients who have used these products. With regard to your report of what sounds like a failed transplant, you need to get a second opinion. In general it takes about 6 to 12 months to see results after a hair transplant surgery.
