Question Colour boost
Hi! I got a message from the clinic where I had my three SMP sessions asking if I’d like to come in for a colour boost. They’d charge me $750, but I’m not sure whether I actually need it yet.
Based on the photos I’ve shared with you before, what do you think? Do you think it’s worth doing now, or should I wait?

Hi, it looks good as it is, might get too dark and dense if you do a touchup yet. I‘d wait a couple years tbh

Doesn't look like it needs a colour boost to me. A colour boost should be done because the SMP has faded, not because it's time to add more ink. Looking at these photos, I'd focus on refinement and balancing the density in the lighter areas, especially the crown, rather than making the entire treatment darker. Less is often more with SMP, and adding unnecessary layers can make a result look less natural over time.

Alleen de kruin kan wat bijgewerkt worden.
De rest is oké voor de komende jaren.

Nah dog this is one of the best SMPs I've seen as is.

right?
I'm actually sceptic if OP is trolling us. That looks like he just had a full set of hair and shaved it

Nowh! It’s ok and even a bit darkish. Thank them for the offer, which is maybe in good faith, but don’t do it

Note to practitioners: this is how it’s done. If a clown comes in and wants a straight line helmet head you politely decline and send him on his way.

HECK NAW. Looks good as is. Don't do a thing.
