Cosmetic Tattooing

Cosmetic Tattooing (Permanent Cosmetics, or Permanent Makeup) is a rapidly evolving industry that requires constant monitoring by those who have a strong devotion and an ethical position. Removed from my daily existence within this field, I share my own points of view here and offer some occasional words of wisdom and share some news.

Moving Permanent Cosmetics Forward

With the need for professional credentials and continuing education with pretty much every profession these days, why is it that permanent cosmetics continues to be held back? Why is it that there continues to be weekend training classes or only 4-5 days? How is it that we can forever alter someones FACE and not be resp0nsible to obtain the best education possible to best prepare for this important, life changing task?

These are questions that I hope during the next year, are answered to. This is why I believe, while many disagree, that education requirements have a real place in equitable statewide legislation.

Permanent cosmetics is not a hobby. It is a career choice. Careers are expensive - an investment in time and money - the fact that one has to often travel to learn this career does not warrant limited training hours. Professionals need to trainer with the best possible trainers. Consumers need to have their work done by those professionals who are best PREPARED to deliver safe and beautiful permanent cosmetic procedures. ALWAYS ask about training and continuing education practices.
