Natalie Marie

Natalie has over ten years of experience in scalp micropigmentation, which makes her one of the more established technicians working in Australia. In that time she has helped hundreds of clients restore their confidence through SMP, and that volume of casework is part of why she is trusted with more complex scar and density jobs at the Sydney studio.

Natalie is internationally trained. She built her expertise in fast-paced London, working as a head technician and trainer for a leading global scalp micropigmentation company, before joining the Foli Sim team in Sydney. She brought a strong technical foundation and genuine global experience with her, which shows in how methodically she plans a treatment.

Her areas of specialisation are FUE and FUT scar camouflage, density work with existing hair, both long and short, hairline design, and natural soft-shaven buzz-cut styles. That range means she can work with clients at very different stages of hair loss, from someone wanting a little more density on top to someone going for a full shaven look.

Scar camouflage following FUE and FUT hair transplant surgery is one of her named specialisations. How well any individual scar can be blended depends on its age, colour and surface texture, so it needs to be seen in person before anyone can tell you what to expect. Book a free consultation at Double Bay and Natalie will assess it directly.

Yes. Density work with existing hair is one of her specialisms, and she works with both long and short hair. The aim in those cases is to reduce the contrast between scalp and hair so thinning areas read as fuller, rather than to create a shaven look. What is achievable depends on how much hair remains, which is assessed at your consultation.

Natalie is based at the Foli Sim Sydney studio, 14 Transvaal Avenue, Double Bay, New South Wales 2028. She is available during studio hours, Monday to Friday 9am to 6pm, with Saturday and Sunday by appointment. The Sydney diary is coordinated by Diane Delia, our east coast Operations Manager, who works from Melbourne but looks after both east coast studios.

She has. Before joining Foli Sim, Natalie held the role of head technician and trainer for a leading global SMP company in London, which meant teaching technique to other artists as well as treating clients. Training others tends to sharpen the fundamentals, and it is one reason she is comfortable explaining exactly what she is doing and why.

Clients tend to comment on her professionalism and approachable nature, and on her ability to make people feel at ease throughout the treatment journey. She also brings genuine empathy to the work, because she understands the effect hair loss can have on confidence and wellbeing. Expect to be talked through each stage rather than left guessing.

Hairline design is one of her specialisations, and it is the part of SMP that most determines whether a result looks natural. A hairline needs to suit your face shape, age and the way your hair loss is likely to progress, so it is agreed with you before any pigment is placed. Bring photographs of how you used to wear your hair if you have them.

Natalie treats clients at the Double Bay studio, so treatments do happen in Sydney. Plenty of clients travel in for appointments, and if you are coming from interstate or regional New South Wales it is worth mentioning when you call so sessions can be scheduled sensibly.
