Learn Scalp Micropigmentation With Donna Fathi
Donna Fathi is the founder of Flawless SMP, a professional barber and hairstylist since 1995, Scalp Micropigmentation artist since 2019 and SMP educator.
With more than 31 years in the professional hair industry, Donna brings decades of experience understanding natural hairlines, growth patterns, density, texture, facial proportions and color into her approach to Scalp Micropigmentation.
After seeing firsthand how hair loss affects both men and women, Donna expanded her career into SMP. Today, she performs and teaches customized Scalp Micropigmentation, including natural hairlines, barber edge-ups, density treatments, pigment selection and custom color matching.
Her goal as an educator is simple: teach students not only what to do, but why they’re doing it.
YOUR EDUCATOR NEVER STOPPED BEING A STUDENT
I believe the best educators never stop learning.
Since entering the Scalp Micropigmentation industry in 2019, I haven’t relied on one certification or one method of doing SMP. I’ve continually invested in my education, travelling to learn from different artists, educators and techniques so I could expand my knowledge and continue refining my craft.
Every certification, training experience and technique I’ve studied has given me another perspective — and I bring that collective knowledge into the way I teach my students today.
When you train with me, you’re not learning from a single course I once took. You’re learning from years of continued education, hands-on experience and knowledge I’ve intentionally gathered from across the industry.
And I still consider myself a student. As this industry evolves, I will continue learning — so I can continue giving my students more.

Watch Real Scalp Micropigmentation Treatments Step by Step
One of the biggest advantages of Donna’s Online SMP Course is the opportunity to watch real Scalp Micropigmentation procedures close up and follow treatments beyond the first appointment.
You’ll watch more than five live-model demonstrations, including first, second and third SMP sessions as well as touch-up treatments.
An in-person class takes place over only a few days, so students may not have the opportunity to watch the same client’s treatment develop through multiple appointments and healing stages.
With the online course, you can return to these demonstrations whenever you need a refresher.
BEST OF ALL…ONCE YOU PURCHASE THE ONLINE COURSE…IT NEVER EXPIRES! LEARN AT YOUR OWN PACE WITHOUT TIME CONSTRAINT!

Private Scalp Micropigmentation Training in Vancouver
Flawless SMP has moved away from traditional public group classes.
Donna Fathi now offers private 1:1 Scalp Micropigmentation training in Vancouver for students who want her undivided attention, personalized instruction and continued mentorship.
SMP is a precision-based art. Every student learns differently, and private training gives Donna the ability to watch your technique closely, correct mistakes as they happen and focus additional time on the areas where you need the most guidance.
Training dates are scheduled based on demand, allowing students to request dates that work with their availability rather than waiting for the next public class.
Students who complete Donna’s private 1:1 SMP training receive complimentary access to use Donna’s professional tattoo room for their first 3 months after certification, subject to availability and studio policies.
This gives new artists an opportunity to begin putting their education into practice in a professional environment while continuing to build confidence after training.

Want to Train With Your Own Team?
Private team SMP training is also available upon request for teams of 2–4 students who register together.
This is not a public group class. Donna does not combine individual students to fill seats.
Instead, this option is designed for barbershops, salons, PMU studios, business partners or colleagues who want to learn Scalp Micropigmentation together as their own private team.
Private teams receive the same comprehensive curriculum and hands-on education while benefiting from a reduced per-student tuition.
PRIVATE TEAM SMP TRAINING
MINIMUM 2 STUDENTS TO 4 MAXIMUM IN YOUR TEAM
SMP Training for Students Who Are Ready to Take Action
Donna is intentionally accepting a limited number of hands-on SMP students.
This training is designed for people who genuinely intend to use their education—whether you’re building a new career, adding Scalp Micropigmentation to an existing business or improving skills after previous SMP training.
Donna wants to work with students who are prepared to learn, practice, develop their confidence and eventually work with real clients—not simply collect another certificate.
By keeping training private, Donna can invest more time into each student’s technique, artistry and development after certification.
Your success after training matters just as much as completing the class itself.
Start Learning Before Your Private SMP Training
Every private SMP student receives access to Donna’s Online Scalp Micropigmentation Course before their hands-on training begins.
You’ll study the theory and watch real procedures ahead of time so your private time with Donna can focus on fake skin practice, hand position, depth, technique, hairline design, barber edge-ups, pigment selection, custom color matching and hands-on application.
If you have a busy schedule, Donna can also provide a weekly study schedule to help you work through the online course before your hands-on training.
Learn Advanced SMP Hairline Design
Creating a natural-looking Scalp Micropigmentation treatment begins before the first impression is made. The hairline must complement the client’s facial structure, age, existing hair and personal style.
Donna teaches students how to create and customize different SMP hairlines rather than relying on one template.
Students learn:
Natural Hairlines
Soft, realistic designs customized to the individual.
Receding & Mature Hairlines
Age-appropriate designs that complement existing recession.
Custom Hairlines
Designed around facial structure, existing hair and the client’s goals.
Barber Edge-Up Hairlines
A more technical, precision-based hairline requiring careful attention to shape, corners, symmetry and proportion.
With more than three decades of professional barbering and hairstyling experience, Donna specializes in teaching the barber edge-up SMP hairline and brings traditional barber hairline knowledge directly into her SMP education.
Learn Custom SMP Pigment & Color Matching
Scalp Micropigmentation is not one-color-fits-all.
Donna teaches students how to evaluate skin tone, existing hair color, undertones and treatment goals when selecting and customizing SMP pigment.
Students learn how pigment selection and formulation can change from client to client, helping them understand the reasoning behind custom SMP color matching rather than relying on one standard formula.
