Becoming a Permanent Makeup Artist


Once you have decided that you want to be a permanent makeup artist, the next step for you is to find out how to get certified to do permanent makeup.

It can also be helpful to get a hand-on permanent makeup training apprenticeship.


Permanent Makeup Programs

Each state has different licensing and professional requirements. You have to find a cosmetology program that includes permanent makeup courses. Academies are offering multi-day sessions that can lead to certification in the specialties they teach. Keep in mind, as mentioned before, some of the schools and academies only accept students who already have their esthetician licenses. Estheticians are already trained in the traditional makeup applications and know all about skincare.
