December 30, 2020I finished my 3 sessions over a year ago now and let me tell you that the work Ken did on my head is IMMACULATE, it looks so natural, as... read more close to the real thing as it gets.

Well I am going to be completely honest, with SMP i was very on the fence about it! worried that it wouldn't turn out, or that it would look... read more fake so i took researching this very serious. ken is hands down the best in Canada, his work is like no other! got mine done 6 months ago and not one person has asked if it was real or fake! its flawless you legit cannot tell. I haven't wore a hat since, you will and i promise this, feel like a new man! not only was his work second to none, his professionalism and positive attitude make the sessions a breeze! one of the easiest guys to talk to. You can search all you want, but i can assure you that ken is the best and i promise it will be when of the best decisions you have ever made! Thanks again Ken, you truly do make a difference in peoples lives. ---Chris.

September 26, 2022Recently visited Ken and finished 3 sessions of SMP at his studio. Honestly, the results have far surpassed my own expectation and I could see significant changes with just... read more the 1st session. My hairline looks so natural no one at work could tell my scalp got inked. Throughout the process Ken was great and he even continued to follow up with me to ensure my scalp was healing well and made sure I was happy with the results. For some people this is just cosmetics, but to me this was life changing, not to mention a confidence boost. Do your research on SMP (just like tattoos its permanent) and if you decide this is what you want, look no further Ken is the guy. He is extremely knowledgeable and he will help you look your best ?

PERFECTION! (Bit of a long review, but detailed for those with questions!) I looked into various local companies and was blown away by Scalp Tech's info & reviews so I emailed for... read more a consultation. Within an hour I recieved a reply and set up a time. Arriving at my first meeting I mostly went for information and to see if it was even possible with my light/fair skin tone. Ken treated me like we've known eachother for years and gave me the most valuable information, explained the process, provided great payment options and comfort. I left feeling confident, and with someone who could be trusted and would not be satisfied until I am. Not only that but Ken also has SMP done!, a good sign right from the start. A few days later Ken offered me the opportunit to be a "model" for someone he was training. Their final test would be my first session and from there Ken would take over for remaining sessions. After a call to explain the process I was nervous but Ken"s confidence had me fully trusting so I agree'd. That first session I was blown away as Ken was VERY involved, sharing knowlege, helping them and proving he is a clear leader in this industry. The most comforting is they were SO WELL TRAINED that I had zero concerns the entire time. There was no uncomfortable moments and the "trainee" kept saying things like "this is exactly how you showed me and Im so confident in my skills". When that first session was complete I was BLOWN AWAY by what I seen in the mirror. Both myself and the trainee put Ken on a petestal! As Ken will explain it is a process...not a procedure. All our skin types are different. Ken estimated I would be a 3-4 session process as I have light/fair skin and it almost never seen the sun (tough skin & oily). A "session" is about once every 2 weeks for a couple hours each time. Virtually painless the day of and none in the following days. it was crazy how easy it was to be the client! Back for my second session and as explained things did lighten up, and my skin pushed out some of the ink but thanks to Ken's detailed information it was totally expected!. I was not left feeling uncertain or confused, I knew he would add as we went along. As he says "I can paint your head very dark in one session but we need you to look natural, not rediculous". My second session went by in a couple hours and I began the next 2 week healing to go back for session #3. Arriving for session #3 and things lightened up even less!, to the point I was already recieving compliments from the people I showed!. Clearly the process was taking shape and Ken's color selection was right on track..and everything he said/predicted/advised was 100% accurate. After session 3 it looked AMAZING once healed. I wasn't even sure IF I needed another but via Ken's recommendation I stopped by so he could look at it and give me his opinion. He knew best and is SO detailed, SO considerate, Such a perfectionist that I almost "needed" his final word. He decided on one quick "blend" to finish it off and what can I say...amazing. I was already satisfied and he went the extra step to make it his level of perfection. Now fully healed & completed what can I say other then best decision of my life. Unless I tell someone, they have no idea this was done by a person. All my worries about light skin are erased by an exact color that looks absolutely natural. the first time someone who didnt know I had it done said "why do you wear a hat, you look incredible with a shaved head" was an amazing feeling. Ken runs an amazing business with a ton of integrity and clearly values the client & Understands you as a human with insecurities. The level of confidence I gained back is something I never knew possible. I could say it's worth way more then the money spent, infact I feel now that I owed him more then I was charged...it's THAT GOOD!. Never a bad experience and never promised anything I didnt recieve. Every single thing from start to finish was expected and I never felt confused, uncertain or mis-informed. I would do ANYTHING to recommend Ken & Scalp Tech.

April 1, 2022Where to start? I have recently completed the Scalp Micropigmentation Extensive training course through Scalp Tech Inc. It was beyond my expectations and Kenneth Kuca is second to none. I... read more chose to go in for a consultation for training with Scalp Tech Inc. simply because of Kens phenomenal reputation and seeing the work he puts out. I already knew I would be meeting one of the best artists in the business, but the second I sat down and Ken started to explain what the training would look like I was blown away. Not only is this man the best in his field, he is so passionate about his work and his desire to help people is his driving motivation. His enthusiasm about the process is only second to his skill. The training was an extensive 3 day program with a ton of hands on. I got to work directly with clients and see the entire process from sitting in on consultations with potential clients to seeing the finished results. Watching Ken work is to witness something very special. After learning all of the course material, getting a feel for the equipment and a lot of practice, he brings in a live model for you to work on. It's a big step, but with all the skills he gives you and the consistent encouragement and guidance, when that person sits in the chair, you will be ready. For me, the best thing I can take away from this experience is that Ken doesn’t just give you your certificate and wave goodbye, you now have him in your corner indefinitely and he will mentor you and give you guidance for as long as you need it. Please do not fall victim to the in and out courses offered by other facilitators where you are just a number, I’ve been there and done that before. Go get an actual one on one training experience with Scalp Tech Inc. from a true artist. Just read his reviews and look at the photos online and you will see what I mean. This is a life changer, for sure!

January 9, 2020PART 2 Review: If you haven't read part I; Ill summarize it for you. Ken is the man, don't waste your time and money going elsewhere. On to part two:... read more Exactly 1 week after my first session, I came back to Ken for my second sesh, we had been texting back and forth during the one week off as he consistently checked up on how my head was doing, how it was healing, if I had any issues, concerns, etc. (Again, super awesome dude!). Getting back to his studio was like seeing an old friend, I just felt at ease and just had full confidence in Ken's ability to make my head look the best it could be. Like a professional that he is, he asked me to have a seat, have a glass of cold water while he examined my head. From there, we discussed options, expectations, hairline, etc. Once again, I felt like I was a huge part of the decision making, as it should be! This is my head after all! During this discussion, we determined what type of ink and needle to use for this session. Ken explained everything to me so that I can weigh in on the subject. Shortly after, we're in business. I laid down, Ken put on his tunes, and went to work. Since this is my second session, Ken explained to me that my skin would be tighter since its the skins natural reaction to needles. Sure enough the pain level was a little bit more this time around, but it was definitely tolerable. Trust me, this pain is nothing compared to the pain of having a bald head at a young age...It was a very small price to pay to have my confidence back again. As Ken proceeded to lay the ink down, he constantly checked up on me to ask about the pain level, making sure I was all good (What a nice guy!) A few hours later, we were done! He asked me to get up and have a look in the mirror. With full confidence I took a look, MAN OH MAN its absolutely perfect! I mean the first session was already sick, how much better could it get?! Well I was wrong, this time it looked absolutely flawless. My man managed to give me "hair" density on my head with the use of ink! The man is a WIZARD! Like before, I thanked Ken for blessing my head with his skills! Honestly, just take a look at the attached photos. It just speaks volumes about how talented Ken is in his craft. Ive said it before and I will say it over and over again, DONT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY ELSEWHERE! Go visit Ken at Scalp Tech Inc. I guarantee you, it will be one of the best decisions you'll ever make in your life!

July 21, 2020Amazing, thorough SMP training. Ken doesn't hold back any of his tips and tricks that he has learned over the last 10+ years of doing SMP. I reached out to Ken... read more after taking another course that included various PMU training and Paramedical Tattooing. It was about an hour into that course that I realized I'd be scammed and the instructors teaching lip blush, brows, areola tattooing and SMP, didn't even do these services! Some "teachers" had never even done SMP ever. Insane. The situation I got myself into, so many others have done the same so do yourself the biggest favour and get it right the first time and do your SMP training with Ken! He customizes each training session so that you get the most out of it and really works with you to make sure you leave feeling confident and knowledgeable about everything SMP. Ken is the real deal - my only regret is not taking this course sooner! Watch out SMP world 🙂 Kenna

I had been considering SMP for a while but I was always concerned about finding a quality artist... read more with natural looking results. I couldn't be more thankful I found Ken at Scalp Tech...He did an even better job than I ever could have imagined possible with this treatment. The guy is a legitimate artist with SMP. The entire process start to finish was informative, easy going and worth every penny to get the results I have now. If you are even considering this treatment... reach out and speak with Ken. He will provide you with a ton of information that will help you make the right decision. He's a great guy who is passionate about what he does and his results speak for themselves. The only regret I have is that I didn't do this years ago... I can't stress it enough... Get this done with Ken at Scalp Tech. Thank you my man!!

Ken guided me through the whole process, so I knew exactly what I was getting into. He worked with me to map out a natural hairline, colour matched perfectly to my natural hair colour & the results were beyond my expectations. If you are thinking of getting SMP, get it done right the first time, and go to Ken. If you are on the fence, have a look at the Scalp Tech Inc Instagram. The results speak for themselves.
