SMP Rule #3
Men & women agree.
Men spend a fortune correcting their hair loss, but did you know that up to 40% of the people who struggle with hair loss are women? SMP is the only hair loss treatment that has proven 100% successful for everyone. And it’s far less invasive—and more attractive—than other treatments.
SMP Rule #4
It's about growth.
Even though SMP’s popularity has skyrocketed, the market is still nowhere near capacity. Getting in on the ground floor is the perfect way to grow your career.

"I am very happy with the SMP training I recently had. Right from anatomy of scalp, hairline designs, hand technique, live treatment observation and more, everything was explained clearly."
SMP Institute Graduate
"I attended the SMP Institute July 2018. During the training, Leah Matsch, had me shadow her with a GLI client. The advanced training course was very useful - great tips and tricks that I had never learned previously."
SMP Institute Graduate
"I recently finished the SMP Institute at Good Look Ink in MN. I was extremely impressed with the in depth training Leah Matsch provided. She literally covered every aspect of scalp micropigmentation as well as giving many tricks of the trade that she has learned over the years. I highly recommend SMP Institute if you are looking for the most thorough training within the industry. I myself have been to several other so called "SMP Training Schools" and none came even close to SMP Institute."
