Live streaming has become a game-changer for professionals in niche industries, and scalp micropigmentation (SMP) artists are no exception. David Santiago, CEO of Scalp Solutions, has embraced live streaming to showcase his hair tattoo sessions, behind-the-scenes content, and industry insights—all powered by the YoloBox Ultra.
In this customer story, we explore how David leverages the YoloBox Ultra to elevate his live streams, engage his audience, and stand out in the competitive world of scalp micropigmentation.
Introduction
David Santiago is a pioneer in scalp micropigmentation, a specialized hair loss tattoo technique that replicates natural hair follicles. As the founder of Scalp Solutions, he not only performs SMP but also educates aspiring artists and clients through his podcast and live content.
Recently, David signed a contract with TikTok, expanding his reach with live streams of SMP sessions, Q&As, and industry discussions. To ensure professional-quality broadcasts, he turned to the YoloBox Ultra—a live streaming hub that simplifies multi-camera setups while delivering studio-grade production.
I’ve been live streaming for a few weeks now and started using the YoloBox Ultra about two weeks ago. Since then, I’ve produced five live streams with it. It’s made the whole process smoother and has definitely elevated the quality of my content. In an industry where most artists aren’t streaming at all, using the YoloBox has helped set my production apart and given me an edge without overcomplicating things.
Live Streaming Setup for Hair Tattoo Artists
David’s setup is designed for flexibility and high-quality output. Here’s how he uses the YoloBox Ultra to create engaging live streams:
- Cameras: 3x Canon EOS RP (with kit lenses)
- Audio: Hollyland Lark M2 (wireless mic on the shirt connected directly to YoloBox Ultra)
- Lighting:
- 2x GVM 80s video lights with gridded softbox
- 1x Sutefoto TP25-RGB (rear light)
Favorite features
“I really enjoy using the picture-in-picture feature, and auto switching has been a game changer for me, especially when I’m working on a client and can’t touch the YoloBox during a session. Honestly, I’m impressed with all the options the YoloBox gives me. I had tried live streaming before and found it frustrating, but with this setup, I’m actually excited to go live and share more consistently.”
How YoloBox Ultra Simplifies Hair Loss Tattoo Live Streaming
Before using the YoloBox Ultra, David found live streaming frustrating. Now, he’s able to:
- Stream effortlessly with a plug-and-play setup—no complex configurations.
- Switch between multiple cameras automatically(David uses three cameras), giving the community the best possible viewing experience from different angles of hair tattoo sessions.
- Produce studio-quality streams without needing a full production team.
The Future of Live Streaming for SMP Artists
With plans to stream 3-4 times per week, David is positioning Scalp Solutions as a leader in SMP education and entertainment. The YoloBox Ultra empowers him to:
- Showcase his artistry in real-time, attracting new clients.
- Educate aspiring SMP artists with behind-the-scenes tutorials.
- Grow his TikTok audience with professional live content.
For hair tattoo artists, podcasters, and live streamers, the YoloBox Ultra is more than just a streaming device—it’s a game-changing tool that turns complex productions into seamless broadcasts.
