How Scalp Micropigmentation Works
What is Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-invasive cosmetic procedure designed to replicate the appearance of hair follicles on the scalp.
Our Advanced Micro-Dot Technology
During the SMP procedure, micro-pigment deposits are applied to the scalp using ultra-fine needles.
At Roots of Majesty, our Advanced Micro-Dot Technology utilizes precise spacing, dot layering, and softness tailored to your unique scalp. The result is realistic density that looks effortless and ages beautifully.
-
Each pigment dot is meticulously applied based on your scalp’s unique light reflection, hair direction, and density zones. Unlike pixelated or overly uniform SMP results, our micro dots mimic natural follicle flow — dot by dot.
-
Micro Dot Technology is applied over multiple sessions to build lifelike depth. This layering ensures the illusion of 3D follicle growth instead of a flat tattooed look. It evolves with your skin and ages naturally — no harsh outlines, no fading blobs.
-
Not all scalps are created equal. Our technique is customized for female partings, diffuse thinning, and crown recession — areas where softness, gradient blending, and minimal spacing matter. It’s SMP refined for subtle enhancement, not just camouflage.
What to Expect
A Warm Welcome & Thoughtful Start
Each session begins with a consultation. We’ll confirm the area(s) you’ve booked based on the photo you previously sent, and discuss any future areas you may wish to address.
We’ll take your “before” photo and begin the 20-minute numbing process, so you’re fully comfortable before we start.
Micro Dots, Made Just For You
The Technique: Layered Micro Dots
A layering technique is used to build soft, natural-looking density.
Each dot is placed with consideration for your scalp’s curvature and hair direction, mimicking how natural shadows form.
This approach avoids flat or overly uniform coverage, creating results that blend seamlessly with your existing hair.

SMP uses a special machine to deposit tiny pigment dots on the scalp, mimicking natural hair follicles. It helps to narrow wide hair parting or make our hairline look fuller. At Roots of Majesty, we use advanced techniques for precise, clean dots that blend seamlessly. No smudging or uneven results like outdated hand-dotting methods.
You’ll see a difference after just one session, and a second session boosts longevity, making it last 2-3 years. It’s non-invasive and perfect for a fuller, natural look.

Nope! It doesn’t change colour. It softens over time, making it low maintenance and more natural.

SMP is generally not painful, as we use numbing cream to keep you comfortable during the process.
Most clients say it feels like tiny pinpricks or a light scratching sensation. It’s so comfy that some customers fall asleep.
There is also no downtime, you can get back on your routine immediately. -
Yes, you can. For both dyed hair and hair growth treatment, we recommend at least 5 before and 14 days after your SMP session to ensure the scalp micro wounds have fully healed. This helps the pigments settle into the scalp without any irritation.
-
With SMP priced at $288 per unit, it’s common for a middle parting to be around 2-3 units, making it approximately $576–$864.
To put it into perspective: 1 unit at Roots of Majesty = Eyebrow embroidery of 2 brows. (Usually valued at $300)
-
We recommend waiting 14 days between sessions to allow the micro-wounds to fully heal and the pigments to settle properly. While a second session isn’t a must, it’s highly recommended to extend the longevity of your SMP.
