How do we feel about scalp micropigmentation (SMP)?

For those unfamiliar, SMP is a specialized form of cosmetic tattooing that mimics the appearance of hair follicles, helping create the illusion of fuller hair or a more defined hairline for those experiencing hair thinning or hair loss.

Someone recently asked if this was something I’d consider learning, and naturally, it got me curious.

So today, I sat down with some practice skin to try my hand at dot work.

Was it perfect? Nope. But that wasn’t really the point.

I wanted to see if my ADHD brain could handle the patience, precision, and repetition this technique requires. I’m used to bouncing around between different elements while tattooing, whereas this requires a whole different level of focus.

I’m not going to lie, I had to remind myself to stay on task a few times, but I actually enjoyed the challenge. And I think it’s something I could really enjoy learning and improving on.

Now I’m genuinely curious… is there interest in SMP?

Would you consider it for yourself? Know someone who might benefit?

I’d love to hear your thoughts before making the investment in proper training with a master educator such as SMP INK And Academy and Inkd SMP™ | Scalp Micropigmentation Melbourne Hair Tattoo whose work is pictured in this reel.

👉 Comment “SMP” if you’d like more info and I’ll DM you. 🖤

Ar**la training with Ink Boutique brought us together. Sharing industry knowledge and supporting each other from across the country kept our friendship growing. A whole week with Christie, growing our industry knowledge, making new connections and laughing our way to and from the Bahamas…this is something I’ll never forget.

Until next time, Christie | Tattoo Artist | Fort Myers, Florida 🖤

To say I’m excited to be reunited with my people would be an UNDERSTATEMENT. 🥹🖤✈️

PMU World Live ROUND TWO (for me), HERE I COME!

There’s something so special about this event. The team behind PMU World is truly top-notch. They have this incredible way of making you feel like family before you even check in. It’s hard to explain until you’ve experienced it.

I left PMU World last year thinking I’d probably never see half these people again. Boy, was I wrong. 😂

Not only did I run into so many familiar faces at trainings all over the country this year, but we stayed connected. We checked in, shared advice, asked questions, celebrated wins, and supported each other along the way.

What I thought would be a week of networking turned into friendships I genuinely treasure. This industry has given me a community I never knew I needed, and one that so many people only dream of finding.

And THIS year? I’m heading back with one of those very friends I made along the way. 🥹 It just hits different.

Unfortunately, Mr. Lenni Ink is staying behind this round, and the FOMO is REAL. 😂 He had an absolute blast last year and knows exactly what he’s missing!

My heart is full, my excitement is through the roof, and I cannot wait to see my people again.

SEE YOU SOON, FRIENDS! 🖤✈️

OUT OF OFFICE ✈️🚢☀️

Trading my tattoo machine for a passport, some sunshine, and a whole lot of PMU education!

I’m headed back to PMU World - this time At Sea, and I seriously couldn’t be more excited!! 🖤

Not only do I get to learn from some of the best in the industry, but I get to reunite with so many incredible friends I’ve made from all over the country this past year! 🥹

One of my favorite things about this industry is the community. What started as a career has turned into friendships, endless opportunities to grow, and a whole lot of unforgettable memories.

I’ll be OUT OF OFFICE until October 18th, soaking up all the knowledge (and probably a little sunshine 🍹).

I’ll have limited access to messages while I’m away, but booking is always open at lenniink.com!

Here’s to never stopping learning, growing, and investing in the craft I love! 🥂

See you when I’m back! 🖤

“Just breathe.” 🖤

Two weeks healed, but this tattoo carries a lifetime of memories.

A couple of years ago, my friend and I lost a dear friend to su***de. Bernie was one of those people who could light up a room. Always upbeat, always making memories, and always leaving you with a story to tell.

We still talk about his hugs, his random late-night calls needing a ride or somewhere to crash when he was home from the military, and the surprise of waking up to find him at our college house.

I remember sitting next to him in high school, talking about his next wrestling meet or whatever trouble we’d gotten ourselves into that weekend.

He was truly one of the best.

And that’s something I wish more people understood about mental health. Sometimes the people who seem the happiest are carrying struggles we know nothing about.

We miss you every day, Bernie. Your hugs, your smile, your friendship, and all the memories we made will never be forgotten.

I’m incredibly honored to have created this little reminder for someone who loved him so much.

Check on your people. Even the ones who always seem okay. 🖤

Lip blush is about so much more than adding color. 💋

This client had some natural asymmetry in her smile along with areas where the vermilion border had very little visible pigment, so our goal was to create a softer, more defined lip shape while restoring color where it was lacking.

Her natural lips lean more purple, so I used Bubble by to help counteract those cooler tones, paired with a 1001RL for soft, controlled saturation.

These are her fresh results, and I’m already loving the difference. I’m even more excited to see how everything settles and heals before her 6-week perfecting session.

Fresh lip blush always looks brighter immediately after treatment, so stay tuned for the healed result. 👀

Round 1 of stretch mark revision ✨

It looks a little wild immediately after treatment, but this is just the beginning. We’ll check progress at 6 weeks, with more noticeable changes expected around 12 weeks and even more around 18. I’m SO excited to watch her journey. 🤍

Best part of the appointment? Her son asked what the marks on her tummy were. When she told him they were from growing him in her belly, he apologized because he “just couldn’t get comfy and had to stretch out a lot.” 🥹😂

The sweetest little soul, Pirate’s B***y burps and all.

It’s Warrior Wednesday. 🤍

And apparently my Warriors have decided that if I won’t let them pay me, they’re going to find other ways to spoil me. 😂

I’ve received the sweetest cards and little gifts along the way, and I genuinely LOVE seeing what people bring me. Every card gets read for the first time on camera, every note gets saved, and every little gesture means more to me than I can explain.

Because Warrior Wednesday was never supposed to fill my bank account.

It’s supposed to fill my heart.

This little initiative exists to help women feel whole again after everything their bodies have carried them through. Getting to give someone that final piece of their reconstruction, hear their stories, hug them, laugh with them and occasionally get surprised with a little gift in return…that’s the kind of payment you can’t put a number on.

And Warrior Wednesday just keeps growing. 🥹

I’m incredibly grateful to now be receiving referrals through Corewell Health Betty Ford Breast Care Services, in addition to the incredible people and organizations who continue to share this program with women who may need it. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I say it every month, but I mean it every month:
I freaking love Warrior Wednesdays. 🤍

Free ar**la tattooing is offered on the last Wednesday of every month through Lenni Ink Aesthetics for qualifying breast reconstruction patients.
