About Us
Meet Barry Tunstead
Multi-award-winning artist Barry Tunstead has become one of the most sought-after scalp micropigmentation technicians in the UK. Having experienced his own personal struggle with hair loss Barry founded Skulltec Scalp Micro Pigmentation Ltd out of a belief in and commitment to the art and the practice. His objective was simple. Combine his considerable tattoo knowledge and experience with the gratifying work of helping others through their own hair loss journey with a nonsurgical and non-invasive solution. Focussed on these two aims, Barry successfully established a modern, state-of-the-art hair loss clinic. The vibe is edgy and laid back, but the work is serious, and results based.
Barry prides himself in his work and reputation. His dedication to his art and his brand is what have fuelled the rapid upward trajectory of Sculltec, where the skill and expertise is second to none. Barry’s investment is far more than business based. It is rooted in a passion for helping clients just as he was once, and in the continuous growth of the industry through leadership and training
We pride ourselves on our hard earned reputation. Check out our ever growing list of list of phenomenal feedback from clients all over the globe.

Meet Quinton Gordon
Quinton Gordon is artist-in-chief at Skulltec’s Exeter clinic, offering the transformative hairline we have become best known for. Friends since childhood, Quinton and Barry grew up together and found yet one more thing in common between them….hair loss!
The life changing experience of scalp micropigmentation led Barrie pursue training, becoming a practitioner first. Soon after, Quinton followed suit and together the duo established Skulltec. Now with two successful locations, Skulltec is Southwest England’s most trusted scalp micropigmentation clinic, with a rapidly growing client base.
Quinton is passionate about his art and his ability to help others regain confidence like he did after his own treatments. Well aware of the myriad of other hair loss treatments and their efficacy, Quinton considers himself incredibly fortunate to have joined this industry that is, at last, providing practical and long lasting solutions for clients. Having a lead artist as invested in a client’s journey as Quinton is, is what brings customers in, followed by their friends and family. Understanding the experience from both perspectives has given Quinton the edge. Perfection is not a goal, it is mandatory.
“This treatment is truly life changing. It’s the best thing I have done since giving up on all the products I have tried. All of which failed to make any notable difference. It’s an honour and privilege to deliver the same life changing experience to our clients”

Meet Sean
Sean had spent most of his working life in powder coating which he excelled in working on big projects including the Shard, the Olympic stadium and the new Tottenham stadium to name a few.
However the job involved working long hours and weekends and didn’t leave much time for a home life.
When his first son was born he started to look at other potential careers with more flexible working hours in view of being able to spend more time with his family.
Seans partner is a permanent makeup artist and told him about scalp micropigmentation, he had never heard of it before and started to do some research on it. Instantly he became a bit obsessed on the amazing results that can be achieved and knew that this was the path he wanted to go down.
After doing a lot of research their were 2 scalp micropigmentation artists in the uk whose work really stood out to him in terms of looking natural and giving great healed results so he decided to reach out to them and has since been on training courses with both artists. He learnt a lot from these guys from technique to sourcing all the best equipment, products and pigments to ensure the best possible results for his clients.
Sean now has over 3 years experience in scalp micropigmentation and has a real passion for helping his clients with their hair loss issues.
