Kechia Taylor

Have you been wanting to join the Permanent Makeup industry? Or maybe you want to specialize in a more niched service within the industry? How does Scalp Micropigmentation sound? 

On today’s episode of the Black Girls Blade, we speak with Benaiah Poindexter, Scalp Micropigmentation Specialist and Educator. She owns Scalp Prodigy located in Las Vegas, Maryland, and California. She has been in theindustry for 5 years.

She describes the SMP industry as very lucrative and with more men as clients than women. What you need to have in place to be successful in SMP:

  • Set your time right to figure the number of clients you can handle.
  • Set the price range you want to be in so that it can bear the market based on the city you live in.
  • Ensure you have enough ambition to pursue your marketing because the SMP keyword is expensive. 

Pro Tip: Make sure your work is different, make your energy different, make your business stand out, and create micro-locations.
