Amazing Results
As a 50 odd year old baldish fella I’d long got over the trauma I experienced when I first started going thin. I started shaving my head early on, rather than endure the hassle of any sort of strategic 'hair play' or using Regaine or some other such treatment. On the whole I was pretty alright about my head, it wasn’t a bad shape so I looked ok.
I’d never even heard of SMP until last year, when I was at a party of a mutual friend and I met Steve, one of the owners of ‘Get Head Strong’. He was telling me about the business he was in and told me about the process, he’d obviously had the treatment himself, and I thought it looked really good and obviously convincing.
Anyway, I got his number went away and had a think about it. I called Steve and spoke to him further on the phone for a good hour, I asked lots of questions and he answered them honestly, he told me if I wanted to go away and think about it that was fine, but his reassurances really helped me make my mind up, I never felt any pressure or hard sell. He offered to do mockups of how it would look if I sent in some pics but after doing my own research on SMP and watching several video reviews I had a good idea of how it would turn out, so didn’t bother.
My biggest concern really was the transition i.e. going from no hairline to having a hairline, and how the reaction would be when seeing family, friends & colleagues etc., but both Steve and Marcin who did the treatment, said that most people probably wouldn’t even notice. I was told that Marcin was one of the best ‘artists’ in the country having done in excess of 1000 heads, so I felt that I was in good hands.
The process is obviously done over three sessions, after the first session you get a really good idea of what the end result will be, my head was a bit red and tender for a few days but then settled down, after the 2nd session which was a week later it pretty much looked finished, the final session is really to blend in and make sure that there are no gaps/issues.
So after getting it done I met up with a couple of mates who I’ve known for over 30 years, and as predicted neither of them noticed, and I’ve seen them since and they’ve still not said anything. When I did tell another friend, their reaction was “oh I just thought you’d let it grow!”
Anyway to conclude, I can say that I’m very happy with the result, it’s knocked a fair few years off me, I just wish I’d have known about SMP sooner.
As for 'Get Head Strong' Steve is a nice guy who keeps in touch at every stage, and even after the treatment is finished. Marcin is a really engaging guy and a true professional who makes sure the end result is perfect!
