Tattooed Hair

“Toupees. The combover. Now, a head tattoo? If a UK company has its way, men suffering from hair loss will turn to needles and ink to mask their baldness. Birmingham, England-based HiStyl uses what it describes as “a mild form of medical tattooing” to simulate the look of shaved or closely cropped hair. The company announced via its blog that representatives will travel to San Francisco and Florida this summer to market the technique. The procedure, which HiStyl calls “hair follicle replication,” takes three hours to complete and requires an additional follow-up session. Clients shave or cut their hair in order to blend the tattoos with their natural follicles.” w/ photos
