The certification path

Certified when you are ready—not simply when time is up.

01
Learn & practice

Build theory and technique on practice materials.

02
First live model

Work through the procedure with instructor guidance.

03
Second live model

Demonstrate increasing control and independence.

04
Complete independently

Earn certification when you can properly complete the full procedure. Additional practice is provided when needed.

Inside the classroom

Technique becomes confidence through practice.

Students work closely with Tracy as they move from mapping and machine control to real procedures. The goal is not to rush through a checklist—it is to leave with a process you understand and can repeat responsibly.

Ask about a course
Where is training held?

Training is held in person at Tracy V Permanent Makeup Studio & Academy inside Style Salon Suites, 1820 Coit Road, Suite 140, Plano, Texas.

Will I practice on live models?

Yes. Students begin with theory and practice materials, then progress to live-model work with instructor guidance when their practice work is ready.

Is certification based on attendance?

No. Certification is proficiency based. You receive a Certificate of Completion after demonstrating that you can perform the complete procedure independently and properly.

What if I need more practice?

Training is not rushed. If you are not ready to complete a model independently, you continue practicing and may work with an additional model before certification.

Who should take Advanced Lip Blushing?

The advanced course is designed for artists who already have prior Lip Blushing knowledge and want to develop dark-lip treatment and advanced color skills.
