Scalp shading refers to a cosmetic procedure in which semi-permanent cosmetic makeup is applied to the scalp in order to create the illusion of hair. This process uses custom-colored ink to match the color of your skin and scalp, giving the appearance of hair where there no longer is any.
The process of scalp shading involves applying the makeup to the skin, in order to reduce the contrast between the color of the hair and the color of the scalp. People who have turned to scalp shading as a hair loss solution often complain that the procedure does not effectively replicate the follicles enough, especially as more hair is lost and the scalp becomes increasingly visible. In addition, some of the companies who offer scalp shading tend to use tattoo ink, which may lose their color over time and are extremely difficult to remove by laser.
