YOUR TRAINING JOURNEY
DAY ONE | BUILDING YOUR FOUNDATIONS
We begin with the essential knowledge behind safe, professional permanent makeup. You'll explore skin anatomy, health and safety, contraindications, consultation procedures, pigment theory and treatment planning. We'll then introduce your chosen technique, working through equipment, mapping and practical exercises to develop your understanding and control.
DAY TWO | DEVELOPING YOUR TECHNIQUE
It's time to put your knowledge into practice. Through guided exercises, demonstrations and hands-on learning, you'll begin developing the precision, consistency and confidence required for your chosen treatment. We'll focus on correct technique, troubleshooting and preparing you for practical work on real skin.
DAY THREE | PUTTING SKILLS INTO PRACTICE
You'll bring your learning together through supervised practical treatment on live models. With dedicated 1:1 guidance, you'll work through consultation, treatment planning, application and aftercare, developing your confidence in a professional clinical environment. We'll also discuss your case study requirements, assessment process and next steps towards certification.
YOUR DEVELOPMENT DOESN'T END ON DAY THREE.
Certification is based on demonstrated competency, not simply attendance. You'll receive structured guidance and feedback as you complete your required case studies.
