What is a virtual SMP consultation?
Answer: A virtual SMP consultation is an at-home FaceTime call with SMP Blends where an artist reviews your hair loss pattern, skin type, and goals and explains your scalp micropigmentation options so you can decide if SMP is right for you before ever traveling to the studio.
- Format: Live 1:1 FaceTime or video call from home.
- Goal: Decide if scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is the right tool for your situation.
- What we cover: Hair loss pattern, skin type, style goals, shaved vs. density look.
- Outcome: A clear, personalised game plan before you ever visit the studio.
What happens on your at-home FaceTime consultation
The call feels more like a conversation than an appointment. We’ll ask you to show your scalp from a few angles, talk through what’s bothering you most, and whether you’re drawn to a shaved look or a fuller density look under your existing hair.
- We review your hair loss pattern (hairline, crown, temples, overall density).
- We note your skin type and tone so pigment and shade choices make sense.
- We discuss style preferences — sharp hairline, softer frame, or density only.
- We outline a session estimate and general timeline so you know what to expect.
- You can ask anything about pain, healing, shaving, or how natural it looks in real life.
Why we start with a virtual SMP consultation
Westchester and NYC clients are busy. Driving in just to “see if it’s a fit” creates friction, so we removed that step. Meeting you on FaceTime lets us give you real answers without you rearranging your day.
- Less friction: No commute, parking, or waiting room.
- More privacy: Talk about hair loss from your own space, not a public lobby.
- Better planning: We can reserve the right amount of studio time for your pattern.
- No pressure: The goal is clarity, not closing — you decide your next step.
What to have ready before your call
You don’t need anything fancy. A few simple details make the consult smoother and more accurate:
- A phone or tablet with FaceTime or video and a good battery charge.
- Decent lighting near a window or bright room so we can see your scalp clearly.
- Your hair styled how you normally wear it day to day.
- Any previous treatment history (transplants, medications, scars) you want to mention.
Who a virtual SMP consultation is best for
This is often the ideal first step if you:
- Live in or commute through Westchester, NYC, or surrounding areas.
- Have been researching SMP but aren’t sure if it’s really for you.
- Prefer to meet your artist first before booking in-studio time.
- Want a clear, personalised plan for shaved vs. density, sessions, and expectations.
