Why should you learn SMP from an expert like us?

To be successful in any field, it is crucial to receive high quality training. In an industry dealing with sensitive issues such as hair-loss, your clients deserve the absolute best. Your training is how you are going to build your reputation, so why not learn from the best so you can give your best?

Some trainees make the mistake of choosing a trainer based on cost, without realising this is a false investment. Many lower quality training providers do not themselves have the relevant expertise and knowledge to teach SMP correctly. In this case, after not achieving the results for their clients that they are striving for, re-training is required from a reputable training provider such as Skulltec. Money spent on quality training is a sound investment, and money well spent.

At Skulltec we are truly passionate about the art of SMP and take the utmost care to equip our trainees with the expertise you will need to succeed in this dynamic and rewarding field.

To achieve undetectable, natural results, SMP requires more than what meets the eye, such as learning the proper technique, designing natural hairlines, and building density correctly. Students who enrol at Skulltec on our comprehensive, hands on training courses will master this art, and more.

At Skulltec Training Academy, you will learn from leading industry expert Barry Tunstead. We provide you with hands on, personalised scalp micropigmentation training rather than teaching in large groups to give you the best learning experience. At Skulltec you achieve more than a certificate, you achieve the building blocks of a successful career.

Who can enrol with us?

At Skulltec Training Academy we can accommodate students with varying levels of experience, from complete novices to qualified Semi Permanent Make Up Artists who want to offer a new service, or even tattoo artists.
