Experience
on our side

Scalp Culture training courses are taught by our Master Practitioners, who are some of the highest skilled experts in the world. Scalp Culture are one of the longest serving SMP specialists, entering the industry long before many knew it existed. We’ve had the pleasure of training over 250 people from all types of backgrounds.

We feel it’s important that in order to teach SMP, trainers must have extensive knowledge and experience behind them as this helps to raise the industry standards as a whole. With many SMP companies offering training after being in the industry for only a short period of time themselves, they simply haven’t gained the correct amount of experience to pass on to their students. At Scalp Culture, we have years of experience in Scalp Micropigmentation on our side and have used our skills to treat clients with all types of hair loss issues, including male pattern baldness, severe alopecia, female hair loss, head scarring and post hair transplant clients providing world class results each and every time. Scalp Culture are proud to have received a 100% feedback rating and are confident to state that negative reviews about us will not be found anywhere on the internet as our standards are those of the highest possible.

At Your Own Pace

Learn Scalp Micropigmentation
The correct way

The importance of receiving correct Scalp Micropigmentation training from a certified SMP expert is paramount to being successful in this industry. With some students opting for poor and low cost training providers who don’t have the necessary experience and skills themselves to teach SMP, they are quick to realise that they were set up to fail. This in turn means that students have to retrain with a reputable training provider such as Scalp Culture. Correct SMP training is the only way to ensure that clients receive world class results and when dealing with a sensitive issue such as hair loss, clients deserve the very best. Investing in the correct SMP training is a worthwhile investment.

We are extremely passionate about SMP and we ensure that on completion of training, students have the full knowledge, skill set and confidence to work in this exciting and rewarding industry. During our in depth, hands-on training courses, students will learn the art of Scalp Micropigmentation enabling them to provide flawless results for their clients. There is much more to SMP than first meets the eye such as perfecting the correct technique, creating natural hairlines and building density in the correct manner to create natural, undetectable end results.

Our training courses are sectioned into clearly defined modules and the students progress is assessed throughout. As well as performing live model treatments, students are required to complete written sections during training along with Q&A sessions to determine an understanding of the SMP process. Upon completion of the training course, students are eligible to obtain insurance with either our approved insurance provider or any other reputable insurer. Students will also be eligible for Government licensing which will allow them to perform SMP legally.

True level 4 accreditation
in Scalp Micropigmentation

Scalp Culture are one of the only, if not the only SMP training provider to offer a true level 4 accreditation in SMP. We are officially recognised by Government licensing bodies and insurance companies around the world. Level 4 SMP accreditation can become quite confusing for students as some training providers state that they offer a Level 4 accreditation, but upon checking with the accrediting bodies themselves, it quickly transpires that the training course is not level 4 accredited in SMP, but in fact it’s a level 4 accreditation in permanent make up. Scalp Micropigmentation is different to permanent make up and a level 4 accreditation in SMP itself should be obtained.

At Scalp Culture, we are a transparent company and we are happy to advise our students on our level 4 accreditation which can then be verified by local councils and Government licensing bodies. Level 4 accreditation is optional for students who wish to achieve this certification.

On completion of our training course you will received your certificate and be eligible to apply for insurance and local authority registration.
