WHAT IS SCALP SHADING?

Add a No-Shave Hair Density Service to Your Business

Scalp Shading, also known as Scalp Painting, originated in Korea and is designed for clients who still have existing hair but are experiencing thinning, low density or increased scalp visibility.

Unlike traditional Scalp Micropigmentation treatments that may require shorter or shaved hair depending on the treatment, Scalp Shading is performed between the client’s existing hairs without requiring them to shave their head.

The goal is to reduce the contrast between the scalp and existing hair, creating the visual appearance of greater density.

This gives SMP, PMU, barbering, hairstyling and beauty professionals another option for clients who may not be ready for traditional SMP.

EVERYTHING INCLUDED IN YOUR TRAINING

2 Full Days of Hands-On Education

This is not designed to be two days of sitting and watching presentations.

You’ll practice the techniques you’ve studied online and progress into hands-on practice, fake skin work and live model application under guidance.

Full Professional Scalp Shading Starter Kit

Your training includes a professional starter kit so you have the essential equipment and supplies needed to continue practicing after class.

Your kit includes:

Tattoo machine • Scalp Shading pigments/inks • Needles • Practice materials • Essential training supplies

The kit is designed to help you begin practicing and working toward offering the service after your training.

Online Scalp Shading Course Included

Your education actually begins before you arrive in Vancouver.

Once your deposit is received, you’ll receive access to my Online Scalp Shading Course so you can begin learning the theory and technique ahead of your in-person training.

Depending on when you enroll, this can give you weeks or even months to prepare before class.

Why Do I Give You the Course Before Training?

Because I don’t want to spend your valuable in-person training teaching information you could have already learned online.

I want you prepared.

Study the theory before we meet so that when you arrive in Vancouver, we can focus our time on:

Fake skin • Hand position • Technique • Depth • Density • Application • Live model work • Real-world treatment


LIVE MODEL EXPERIENCE

Every student will have the opportunity to work with a live Scalp Shading model during the hands-on portion of the training.

I strongly encourage students to bring their own model whenever possible.

Why?

Working on your own model allows you to continue following that person’s healing and results after training, which is an important part of developing your understanding of the treatment.

Traveling to Vancouver and can’t bring someone?

I will help you look for a local model for your training.


CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION

After successfully completing your training requirements, you’ll receive a Scalp Shading Certificate of Completion.

You’ll leave with more than a certificate—you’ll have completed online education, practical exercises and supervised hands-on training designed to help you continue developing your Scalp Shading skills.


LIFETIME SUPPORT

My Support Doesn’t End When Class Ends

Learning a new technique takes continued practice.

That’s why my students receive ongoing lifetime support from me after training.

As you practice, begin taking clients and encounter new situations, you can reach out with questions and continue receiving guidance.


BREAKFAST & LUNCH INCLUDED

Training days are long, so I’ll keep you fueled.

Your Vancouver training includes:

Light breakfast and coffee each morning
Lunch on both training days

That allows us to stay focused on learning without everyone having to leave during the middle of training.

This helps ensure students understand essential infection-control and bloodborne-pathogen safety principles before performing hands-on procedures.
