Career Potential

Permanent cosmetics is one of the most profitable and sought after services in today's image conscious market. Experts in the field consider it one of the fasting growing beauty services. Permanent makeup has been around a long time, however, in the past, it has been cost prohibitive and utilized mainly by the rich and famous. Owing to a tremendous surge in popularity along with the development of innovative techniques such as the SofTap® hand method permanent cosmetics is now available to everyone. Virtually every woman or man who uses an eyebrow pencil, eyeliner or lip liner is a candidate for permanent cosmetics.

Of course, what you charge for your service is up to you. However, the average fees for basic permanent cosmetic applications are as follows:

• Eyebrows: $300 to $600
• Eyeliner: $300 to $600
• Lip liner: $300 to $800

Just one procedure per day at the minimum charge of $300 at three days a week would bring you $900 per week and nearly $3,600 a month! You do the math! You could easily pay for your training course the first month in business. Part time or full time - the sky is the limit!
