PMU Fundamentals: The Key to Consistent Healed Results | TAF #110

Send us a text

If you want a long, thriving career in PMU, consistent healed results, confident color choices, and the ability to pivot on tough skin, this episode is your blueprint. Teryn breaks down the core fundamentals every permanent makeup artist must master (and keep revisiting): skin science, pigment theory, needles, machines, hand movements, stretch, depth, and saturation strategy. Whether you’re doing powder brows, nano brows, combination brows, eyeliner tattooing, or lips, this is the real talk that levels up your results and your reputation.

What you’ll learn:

• Skin: overtones/undertones, oily vs. dry vs. mature, reading & reacting to “misbehaving” skin
• Pigments: inorganic vs. organic, base tones, concentration, aging, when/why to modify (orange/yellow/red)
• Black carbon: when it’s risky, when it’s appropriate
• Needles: singles, liners, shaders, mags; diameter, texture, angles, and movement pairings
• Machines: stroke, speed, give; syncing your hand speed & depth control
• Saturation strategy: soft/airy vs. full saturation—how to get bold looks without overworking skin
• Signature trainings vs. true fundamentals—how to think critically, pivot, and deliver consistent healed results across all skin types
  
  

Who this is for: 

• Aspiring, beginner, and advanced PMU artists who want consistent healed results, confident pivots, & lifelong careers
• Artists offering powder/ombré brows, nano/combo brows, eyeliner, lips, and corrections
