🔸 Skin + color theory basics every PMU artist must know

🔸 Licensing, regulations, and legal requirements (in clear beginner language!)

Why start with this intro course first?

Because investing in PMU training is a big decision. Most full PMU courses range from $2,500–$8,000+ — and many students jump in before understanding:

  • What the job truly involves

    • The ongoing expenses & skill development required

      • Whether they’ll enjoy the work long-term

        • If they’re choosing a reputable trainer

          I created this course because I saw so many people wanting to enter the PMU industry, but feeling lost, nervous, or unsure where to begin. I wanted to offer a safe, honest starting point — one that gives clarity without pressure, and guidance without a huge investment. If it turns out PMU is the path for you, amazing. And if not, you’ll walk away empowered knowing you made the right decision for yourself."
