Online training is amazing, when approached from the right perspective! If you are new to PMU or new to a technique:
  • Proper depth and pressure cannot be learned through online instruction and require professional, in-person mentorship.
  • Practicing machine work prior to supervised, in-person training is not recommended and will likely result in improper technique.
  • Prior to in-person instruction, practice should be limited to pencil sketching only. Where applicable, our online courses provide pencil sketch downloadable documents!
