I recently had my scalp micropigmentation (SMP) treatment done by Rico Ruiz with Union Barber in Torrance California and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, Rico was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and detail-oriented. He took the time to explain every step of the process and made sure I was completely comfortable the entire time. The results look amazing, super natural and perfectly blended. My confidence has gone way up since the treatment.

I just got done getting my procedure done with Jose. I can't believe how real it looks. Wish I would've done it sooner. Jose and Rico were really welcoming and chill every time I came in for a session. Book your sessions here, I highly recommend it, you won't regret it.

Just wanted to share my experience with Rico and Union Station. This was a life changer for me with confidence. Before getting the SMP I was a hat wearing guy 24/7. It was like taking my hat off, I felt like everyone was looking at my big bald head. But after getting SMP I have big confidence with no hat. So if you're thinking about getting it I highly recommend Rico and Union Station. Thank you!

Just got my treatment done by Rico, three sessions. I'm absolutely satisfied with the treatment, good atmosphere. I enjoyed every session. He walked me through in detail and gave me exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend anybody to get it done by Rico or Jose at Union Barber SMP.

Rico's SMP service was exceptional, smooth and honest. I left feeling more comfortable and confident than I was expecting. Rico walks you through the entire process with ease, along with providing you with the proper after care to keep you looking sharp. 10/10

Getting SMP was one of the best decisions I've made. It gave me my confidence back instantly. My hairline looks natural and clean. I feel like myself again every time I look in the mirror. Highly recommend. Thank you again Jose.

Amazing experience getting SMP done with Jose. Clean studio, great attention to detail, and super natural results. Gave me a fresh sharp look without worrying about thinning anymore. Highly recommend.

I got my SMP done by Jose from Union Barber and he did a really great job on it. I can't thank him enough for giving me a whole transformation that helped me gain my confidence back. I would definitely recommend Jose for SMP work 100%.

Jose went way beyond his work. He always reached out to me after every session to see how it's coming along. He even did extra sessions just to make sure everything is on point.

FAQ

Common questions.

Yes. Pigment is layered in multiple tones to mimic real follicles, and the hairline is designed to your face. It reads as hair at conversation distance and in daylight. Every image on this page is a real client.

Most clients describe a light scratching, far gentler than a tattoo. Numbing is available if you want it.

SMP is permanent. It softens slightly over four to six years, and a quick touch-up brings it back to crisp. Your first touch-up window is included.

It depends on the area and sessions. Most SMP in LA runs $2,000 to $5,000. You'll get an exact quote at your free consultation, or in minutes with an instant quote. Cherry payment plans start at $0 down.

SMP is non-surgical, immediate and costs a fraction. A transplant suits longer hair if you have enough donor hair. Many clients combine both. We'll give you an honest recommendation either way.
