Learn the art of Microblading

At iStar we care about the success of each of our students. This is why we have approached the course work differently than other training facilities. Our classes accept no more than four students at a time, and unlike other training courses, we do not run our course as consecutive days. Most training courses are 3-5 days, and those days are back-to-back. We do not feel that this is the best way for our students to truly benefit from the training experience.  In order to become the best microblading artist one can be you need one thing: practice. Lots and lots of practice! By breaking up the 5-day course over two weeks, a student has plenty of time to work independently and truly learn the techniques that are taught in class. A student should never feel that they have not had ample opportunity to learn each skill before moving on to other demonstrations. 

In addition, each student will also learn the business behind the blade, not just the art. We will teach you every aspect of microblading so that you will feel confidence in yourself when you leave. Having the proper business knowledge when you leave class will help empower you to succeed in an existing studio or even go on to create your own brand.

You do not need to have any experience as an esthetician or in cosmetology to become a microblading artist. Before class starts, you will be required to take an online Bloodborne Pathogen Certification.  This certificate is required to obtain your Body Art Practitioner License with your state/city. Don't worry, we will assist you in setting up that course so you will be completely prepared for your training at iStar Microblading. The fee for your Bloodborne Pathogen Certification is included in your training fee. All the necessary details will be provided to you once you have registered for your class. 

While permanent makeup is growing in popularity, many people still do not know about the lucrative career option of Microblading Artist. Microblading has only been around for about ten years in this country, so there is plenty of opportunity to get in on the ground floor of an exploding industry.  

The average cost of a microblading procedure can range from $500 - $700, depending on the area and experience of the artist. Since each procedure takes around 2.5 hours that means an artist has the potential to earn $160 - $280 per hour. 

To put this into perspective, an eyelash technician averages roughly $50 an hour (and they are in the same general industry). Additionally, that person had to go to 9 months of aesthetician school.
