Welcome to Foli Sim Perth
Our flagship Foli Sim studio is located in the heart of Fremantle, Western Australia. Here, our esteemed Founding Director and Leading Senior Practitioner Kate Dawes is available for consultations, Scalp Micropigmentation appointments and industry training.
What is
Scalp Micropigmentation?
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP), also known as Hair Tattoo, is a non-invasive, non-surgical solution to hair loss or thinning that replicates the appearance of a hair. To achieve this seamless and undetectable look, a skilled SMP artist uses specialised needles to tattoo tiny dots of pigment onto the scalp.
Why Should You Choose SMP?
For both men and women, hair loss can be a distressing experience regardless of your age and gender. Not only does it affect your confidence, but the endless stream of unhelpful solutions can cause years of wasted time and money.
Thankfully, Hair Tattoo is an effective and reliable means for adding density to thinning hair, restoring your hairline, or camouflaging scars from hair transplants and other surgeries. With minimal downtime required and semi-permanent results, SMP is a tried and tested treatment, regardless of your stage of hair loss.
When cared for appropriately, results can last for three to five years before requiring a touch-up. It’s no surprise that it has helped thousands of Perth men and women disguise their hair loss and regain their confidence.

Why Foli Sim Perth?
The reasons to choose Foli Sim Perth as your Hair Tattoo provider are plentiful. Our Senior Practitioner Kate is Australia’s leading SMP artist, regularly lending her expertise to conferences and workshops around the world. However, Kate isn’t the only superstar artist on the Foli Sim Perth team; Tara and Shannon are also available for appointments.
Our SMP Perth studio is nestled on Level 1 of Fremantle’s iconic Manning Buildings, exuding a historic charm that contrasts with our ultra-modern interiors. The building’s original Federation architecture dates back to the initial build in 1902; in fact, it was initially used as sleeping quarters for merchant sailors arriving in Fremantle on transport ships!
Like all our Hair Tattoo studios, Foli Sim Perth is fully certified by the Department of Health with two comfortable treatment rooms. We are open by appointment Monday to Saturday.

Shannon Over
SMP Artist
Our SMP Perth artist Shannon Over has an undeniably unique story; he initially came to Foli Sim as one of our clients, and today is one of our incredibly skilled artists! It’s no surprise his passion for providing hair loss solutions comes from his personal experience with hair loss from a young age. His training with Kate has seen him develop impressive precision and natural attention to detail, which pairs perfectly with his confident and reassuring personality.
In 2021 Shannon’s fantastic SMP work was recognised by the Australian Beauty and Cosmetic Tattoo Awards and placed as runner up in the Rising Star category. Shannon continues to perfect his skills, experience and expertise within the Scalp Micropigmentation industry and is a highly valued and exceptional artist within Foli Sim.
Tara Scrivener
SMP Artist
Our fellow artist Tara Scrivener is a Fremantle local who brings warmth and bubbliness to a whole new level. Her career began in the world of makeup artistry before she made the leap to the world of Hair Tattoo and completed extensive Scalp Micropigmentation training with Kate. This shines through in the finesse, perfectionism and attention to detail of her SMP services.
Tara has collected impeccable skills over the last few years in the industry and has become quickly recognised for her perfectionism, great attention to detail and ability to produce very natural, clean and realistic looking SMP. Tara’s artist portfolio continues to grow and is a testimony to her amazing work.
