Permanent Makeup Certificate Program
The Permanent Makeup Certificate Program is a comprehensive, hands-on training course designed to teach students how to safely and professionally apply cosmetic pigmentation into the skin. Unlike traditional makeup, permanent makeup involves placing pigment beneath the skin’s surface to create long-lasting results that resemble makeup.
This program covers permanent enhancements for eyebrows, eyeliner, and lips, along with corrective and restorative applications. Training focuses on technique, precision, safety, and client suitability, preparing students to perform permanent makeup services with confidence.
Program Curriculum
The curriculum is structured to provide a strong foundation in permanent makeup theory, equipment, and advanced application techniques.
Practical Training
Hands-on training is a core component of this program. Students practice on live models under close supervision to develop confidence, accuracy, and professional technique.
