ABOUT THE PROGRAM

 

 

The pictorial content provides an in-depth extension of the subject matter.  There are several handouts including a Tattoo Needle Map, which is a unique course outline and a simplified way to understand what you are learning about.

The class is audio and visual. 

One of the main guiding principles behind our permanent makeup techniques and artistry comes right down to our needle choices and I.N.K. provides wealth of information for effective needle analysis and choices.

 

 

While every needle may not be appropriate for every artist or technique, it's within our scope of work that every artist should be well versed in the variety of needle choices available.

Choosing needles outside of what we initially learn can be intimidating. Whether you're a beginner or advanced in your career, the course will bring your needle knowledge to the top level so you can be confident in your needle selections.

There are guiding principles behind needle choices and once mastered, you will understand that you can choose a variety of needles for different effects and there will be optimal needle choices that fit your personal style of artistry.
