THE COURSE

OMBRÉ (MICROSHADING) & MICROBLADING
TRAINING

In the permanent makeup business, our techniques are always evolving. In our course, you will learn the most asked-for technique of Ombré Powder Brows and Microblading. 

​

Our signature Ombré Powder Brow technique, also known as the Microshading method, is similar to a traditional tattoo, which uses an application of tiny dots of pigment that is inserted into the skin. This method creates the fullness and definition of shading.

​

This technique can be fully customized for anyone who wants the dimension of shading. Once healed, it creates a natural yet defined brow. Students will learn over the course of 3 days the fundamentals of each technique to be able to provide Ombré Powder Brows service to their clientele.​

​

In addition to learning Ombré Powder Brows, you will master the art of Microblading. This class teaches you all aspects of creating the perfect set of Brows. From fluffy hair strokes to soft pixelated shading. You will be able to satisfy every client’s vision

COURSE 
DESCRIPTION

Our class is a THREE-day, intensive training course that includes everything from an introduction to machine shading and micoblading, to in-depth color theory and practicing on live models. Training is hands-on in a real-world environment, so each student gains the technical skills and confidence needed to start working directly after graduation. 

 

This training is suited for beginners and advanced students. You will learn the technique and the proper use of the PMU device to achieve Ombré shading brows, which gives a softly shaded brow pencil look, and how to use a hand tool to create crisp brow strokes. Once healed, it is more natural looking than a solid color.  It gives great definition and depth to the brows.  The shading technique is versatile as the technique can be performed alone as well as combined with microblading whether the client is looking for a subtle or bold brow. During the training, you will practice on paper, latex skin, and on live models. We keep our classes small in order to give you the proper one-on-one guidance you deserve.

​

This course is designed for students who have an interest in all things brows, or who have a passion for the beauty industry and want to expand their talents within their business to provide clients with the most realistic eyebrow procedure

​​

​Our course is Approved by the Division of Private Business and Vocational Schools of the Illinois Board of Higher Education.

This ensures that we set and maintain standards at the highest level.

Reviews

OMBRÉ MICROSHADING

Lisa is simply AMAZING!! I recently took Lisa's powder brow course and learned so much! Lisa is very knowledgeable in this field. Not only are you paying for the course but you also get ongoing support from Lisa. If you're doing your research on for the best class this is it hands down. I love that the classes are very tiny, 2-3 people a class which gives you a better opportunity to really focus and ask as many questions as you need. Lisa was very encouraging and always had a solution for any problem I came to her with. I can't wait to go back and take additional training. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! Thank You Lisa

MICROBLADING

If you're considering microblading training in Chicago,  you've found it! I took a hands on microblading class at The Beauty Crew Academy and I'm so happy I did. Lisa was such a patient instructor and really stayed with me until I "got it". I was worried I wouldn't learn enough in four days, but she made it so easy to take everything in. Since taking her class I've reached out for help and she's not shy with her tips! Best investment I've made.

MICROBLADING

Lisa Pizello is amazing with her instruction. I took part in her microblading certification - she only takes two per class (class consists of two 8 hour days). She provided us each a model to do our first service one, which was great as I left feeling confident in my ability to continue on my own. Probably more notable than all that, she continues to be available on an ongoing basis for help, including, but not limited to, random questions on the procedure, product/supply recommendations, and marketing ideas. Highly recommend certifying with The Beauty Crew! Thanks again, Lisa!

PMU FUNDAMENTALS

Lisa is such an incredible instructor. I can't say enough about how talented this woman is. Her classes are incredibly thorough and her techniques have been so immensly helpful getting me started on my PMU career. She gives you the personal attention needed to really perfect your craft. I would absolutely recommend this school to anyone!
