Over the course of her career, she has managed to attend, and host the best trainers in the world on various styles and techniques in PMU. This has given her the opportunity to learn and apply these techniques and bring them to Sacramento! Our Apprenticeship is designed for a beginner just entering in the industry of tattooing, or a new artist looking to expand their knowledge in new techniques. This course will give you the basic knowledge and skills to perform Eyebrow, Lips, and Eyeliner Tattooing.
