November 21, 2011 | ABC News – MN-Made Company Offers New Solution to Hair Loss

For a lot of men and women losing their hair can be a traumatic experience. One Minnesotan helped create a new procedure that brings back the look of hair  through indelible ink.

Most people don’t have a picture of the top of their head on top of their office desk. Darrin Gerr’s wall and desk are decorated with photos of his head.

It is no surprise when you learn he is the owner of Good Look Ink in Edina. The company created a new procedure that brings back the look of hair through indelible ink.

He says the process recreates the appearance of tens of thousands of individual hair follicles. It costs about $4,000 and can be done in a day.

Gerr, who had the procedure done himself, says people notice something different about him, but they just can’t exactly pinpoint what it is.

Gerr says the company, which started in 2009, is the only business in the U.S. performing this type of hair process.  He says they have clients from all over the world.

October 4, 2011 | Interview on Today’s Market Place on NBC News

Today’s Market Place on NBC News:

The Good Look Ink technique has been developed to recreate the appearance of tens of thousands of individual hair follicles for anyone with hair loss. This Practice employs the process of ingraining an indelible pigment (Non-Surgically) into the dermis of the scalp, mimicking both the color and density of a living follicle. Good Look Ink will restore the permanent look of a full head of hair using the Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication process. The CTHR™ process will take between 1 to 8 hours to complete depending on your current hair loss needs.

Scar Camouflaging CTHR™ creates the appearance of a healthy scalp with a level of realism far beyond mere shading. Each micro hair impression is individually crafted to perfectly replicate a living follicle, providing not only a uniform darker scalp but the real illusion of thicker, fuller hair leaving no evidence of previous scars at a glance.

Tiny tats or a head of hair?  That’s the point.

According to Darrin G, producers who’ve worked with Oprah are aware of his camouflaging technique for thinning hair, but he’s not equipped for the onslaught that could accompany such a national airing.

For two years privately and eight months publicly, Gerr, operations manager of Edina’s Good Look Ink, has been working on a business that specializes in “Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication.” This is a process whereby dots of pigmentation are placed among the thinning hairs of a head to resemble individual hair follicles and thus create the illusion of hair.

Darrin has two technicians, Leah and Tonya, trained in this pointillist process.

Since a mention on, say, Oprah could bring a flood of clients, Darrin’s not prepared for that level of national exposure just yet, although the master plan is that “We’re going to make this global” eventually, said Darrin G.

I ran into him at Fox 9 — he’s been on many Fox stations — and got a chance to examine the finished product up close. See video of me playing in Gerr’s hair at startribune.com/video.

This process was first used to disguise scars from hair-transplant surgery. It costs between $500 and $8,400, reportedly hurts much less than getting a tattoo, and there’s no blood. The $8,400 is for a full head of 30,000 dots, the number required for someone with alopecia. The cost depends on how much hair you have left. The technique involves applying 200 or fewer dots per square inch to skin that’s visible beneath thinning hair.

Hmmm. Wonder if this could be what’s going on with Joey Lawrence, who has returned to TV in “Melissa & Joey,” an ABC Family Channel sitcom?

“That’s what everyone’s asking me,” Gerr said with a lengthy laugh.

Battling Baldness with Pigment

Published : Thursday, 15 Apr 2010, 6:08 PM CDT

MINNEAPOLIS – When your chances for long locks are long gone, you may embrace the idea that “bald is beautiful” or, it could end up your number one insecurity. But anew tool can help those fighting baldness.

Dave Miller, age 39, says he wasn’t obsessed with baldness, but it just never looked quite right on him.

He underwent a five-hour procedure called Cosmetic Hair Replication with a newly designed hair thin needle and mineral-based pigments to match his natural hair color. The technician colored permanent tiny dots to simulate hair follicles.

Once healed, the redness disappears and the color will lighten to match his real hair color.

Good Look Ink, Inc has been in the hair replication business for about two years. Darrin Gerr says “it’s not just for the really bald, but those with thin or thinning hair, are also perfect clients” because the procedure can make the remaining hair look thicker. They can also disguise scars from hair transplants or injury.

February 15, 2010 | Good Look Ink, Inc. Announces Revolutionary Hair Replication Solution

Non surgical procedure restores the permanent look of a full head of hair in one day.

Edina, MN (February 01, 2010) – Good Look Ink, Inc (GLI) recently announced a revolutionary hair replication solution at their Edina, MN office. They utilize a new process known as Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication that works with every hair loss solution available. It restores the permanent look of a full head of hair in one day and develops confidence and comfort in men and women who suffer from thinning hair, male pattern baldness, alopecia, or scars from transplants or injury.

“What amazes me about the result is how people’s confidence in themselves goes up the day they are done,” said GLI Operations Manager Darrin Gerr.

The Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication process is different from any other options to date. The GLI technique is non surgical and mimics both the color and density of a living hair follicle. Through the use of micro pigmentation, it employs the ingraining of indelible pigment, onto the scalp. When completed, it recreates the appearance of tens of thousands of individual hair follicles and is both permanent and maintenance-free.

Anyone with thinning hair, any degree of baldness due to genetics, alopecia, scars from hair transplants, burn scars, hair transplant recipients with unsatisfactory results, and those who wear hair systems and wigs are candidates for cosmetic transdermal hair replication. The high cost of maintenance that goes along with other solutions is eliminated and this process is affordable and competitively priced.

I’m 28 and have had 2 transplant surgeries and, was considering my third. I came in to meet with a consultant who had the CTHR™ process done.  He also had scars from transplant surgery — well I couldn’t see them until he showed me — and I knew this was the place I needed to get, as they say, “HAIR PEACE” and boy did I!

Good Look Ink, Inc began from a personal struggle that affected a GLI owner. In his early 20′s, he found himself in the category of 56% of men that experience premature hair loss. He began searching for a solution yet could not find one that was suitable. He invented the Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication (CTHR) process and vowed to change peoples lives, for the better.

“I wanted to see for myself how the pigment matched the natural look of a living hair follicle,” said a cosmetologist a hair salon manager. “I had the chance to see four people who had the CTHR process done. The men I met had black hair, ashy blonde, brown, and the one that amazed me was Tom who had no hairline and a very cool tone blonde and grey mix. I could not tell the difference between where the CTHR ended and the natural hair was.” From her salon and cosmetology perspective, Tammi added that, “It must be seen to believe as it is the next big thing in the hair and hair loss industry.”

Good Look Ink, Inc is a fast growing innovator in the hair loss industry. Their office is located at 5108 Edina Industrial Blvd, Edina MN, and can be contacted via phone at 952-378-1778. GLI can be viewed online at www.goodlookink.com. Email inquiries can be sent to info@goodlookink.com.

December 1, 2009 | Good Look Ink, Inc opens in Edina

The birth of Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication (CTHR™ ): Armed with the knowledge of what didn’t work and why, he sought out to find a partner to help him achieve this goal. He was referred to a permanent cosmetic makeup specialist. She had over 10 years experience both as a permanent cosmetic makeup specialist and tattoo artist.  She was an innovator and an out of the box thinker. Her idea was to manufacture a needle that was asymmetrical. Looking at the shape of a hair follicle she realized that she needed to make a cluster of needles that could make an asymmetrical group of hair follicles. She experimented with her first cluster on him.  Each needle impression could make only a single impression without the risk of any pigment expanding (bleeding), and she must regulate the depth of penetration to only a fraction of that of a standard tattoo needle. Needles more than 2mm in length have a tendency to catch and tear the skin.  She also knew that the pigment used could not be standard issue Iron Oxide,  as these pigments do not implant true color.  She new she would need to create a proprietary blend of organic pigment that she would need to create. The first full CTHR™ procedure was performed in 2008; the results were astonishing but not perfect. By October, 2008 the process was perfected and now needed to be shared and made available to the public.

Good Look Ink, Inc was born after several CTHR™ performed were performed of working with different ethnicities and looks. Good Look Ink, Inc opened its doors to the public and the owner added to the board of directors partnerships with some of the best business minds in the country, incorporating under Good Look Ink, Inc in 2009.  Good Look Ink’s goal is to bring the CTHR™ process to a global market. Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication is an innovative, non-surgical, permanent solution to help men and women who suffer from thin or thinning hair, and male pattern baldness (MPB).

October 31, 2008 | Good Look Ink starts Research and Development

The founders of Good look Ink, Inc start the research and development process to camouflage the scars from hair transplants, brain sugery, and trauma to the head. Cosmetic Transdermal Hair Replication:(CTHR™) began as most great innovations do, an idea born from a personal struggle. This one, affecting the owner of Good Look Ink, Inc.  In his early 20′s he had found himself in the majority of men who struggle with premature hair loss.

He began diligently seeking a solution to recapture his youthful look. He first turned to a plastic surgeon to undergo a procedure known as hair transplant surgery in the hopes that this would put an end to his despair.  The results of this procedure left him with substantial scars, both physically and emotionally. This was the beginning of a process that eventually led him to CTHR. (Read more about the history of CTHR)
