Why Microblading Training Is Your Next Best Move in Beauty
In 2025, the beauty world continues evolving fast. Clients want natural brows, skilled artists, and safe procedures. That’s where microblading training becomes not just a plus—it’s essential. Whether you’re just starting out or expanding your service menu, getting hands‐on, professional training sets you apart.
At Minnesota Brow Lash & Medspa Academy, we believe that solid microblading education is the foundation of both artistry and business success. If you’re curious what makes our Hands‑On 3‑Days Microblading Training (https://mnbrowlashacademy.com/hands-on-3-days-microblading-training/) special, this post will walk you through what to expect, why it matters, and how people are making real change with it.
What Does a Good Microblading Training Involve?
Not all courses are equal. Here are the key elements you should expect—and that we include at Minnesota Brow Lash & Medspa Academy:
| Component | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Skin Anatomy & Safety Protocols | Knowledge of skin types, healing, infection control reduces risk. |
| Color Theory & Brow Mapping | Proper shape + pigment matching = natural results clients love. |
| Hands‑On Practice: Latex, Mannequin, Live Model | Repetition builds skill. Live models help you understand real skin and working under pressure. |
| Licensed Trainers / Mentorship | Learning from experienced artists helps avoid common mistakes. |
| Business & Legal Aspects | Licensing, pricing, licensing, liability—these are vital to run a stable, professional service. |
| After‑Class Support & Refresher Options | Microblading is part art, part skill. Having support after training helps improve craft. |
At our Academy, the “3‑Day Microblading Course” includes all those: skin anatomy, golden ratio brow mapping, live‑model supervised practice, plus starter kits, business structuring, and more.
What You’ll Learn in the 3‑Day Hands‑On Microblading Training
Here’s a breakdown of what students get in our Hands‑On 3‑Days Microblading Training:
The 3D microblading technique certificate.
A starter kit (valued at about $650) with tools, pigments, mapping equipment.
Theory: skin anatomy, color theory, how different skin types affect pigment retention.
Brow mapping using the golden ratio method, eyebrow design.
Protocols & Procedures: hygiene, safety, regulatory compliance.
Hands‑on practice on paper, latex, mannequins, and at least one live model (with supervision).
Business training: pricing, structuring your services, obtaining and maintaining license, etc.
Because this course is intense in a short time, pre‑course homework is required. After training, there are resources & support to ensure you can continue improving.
Real‑World Case Study: From Learner to Licensed Artist
Here’s an example of someone who took microblading training and turned it into a career:
Tegan Buchholz started at our Academy with just curiosity and no background in beauty. She completed the microblading program, continued with advanced master classes, and two years later runs her own studio offering permanent makeup and eyelash extensions.
What made the difference for her:
Choosing a training program with full hands‑on practice and model work.
Receiving ongoing mentorship after initial certification.
Learning business skills (licensing, price strategy, client marketing).
Investing time to perfect technique—practicing live models, understanding healing, skin types etc.
Licensing, Regulations & What to Check Before You Enroll
Because microblading falls under “body art / permanent makeup” in many places, there are legal requirements. For example:
In Minnesota, microblading & permanent makeup are regulated by the Minnesota Department of Health under Body Art regulations.
Students need to complete a bloodborne pathogens certification before working on live models.
There’s typically a requirement for a temporary body art license if practicing on live models, licensing applications can take 2–30 days depending on state processing.
To apply for a full body art license in Minnesota, apprentices must complete 200 hours of hands‑on work under a licensed supervisor.
Always check your local health department / state board to ensure your training and licensing path is in full compliance.
Is the 3‑Day Course Enough? Pros & Cons
Here are some considerations to help you decide if a 3‑day microblading training is right for you:
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Faster path to get started with a specialty (useful if already in beauty field) | Less time to master complex issues like scarred skin, corrective work, rare skin types |
| Lower cost & shorter time away from work compared to longer fundamental programs | May require additional hands‑on practice or apprenticeship afterward to build confidence and skill |
| You can add microblading as a service quickly and expand from there | You might need to invest in more pigment, tools, liability insurance etc. in addition to tuition |
If you’re brand new, or want to offer a broad range of services (powder brows, ombré, lip blush etc.), a longer program (like the 6‑day Fundamental Microblading & Permanent Makeup Course at the Academy) may give you more robust training.
