LA County Registration Instructions:

LA County requires all permanent makeup artists to register with the Environmental Health - Body Art Program. It is each artists responsibility to complete this registration and provide Microblading LA with your certificate number (also known as an SR#) before the first day of class in order to work with your live model.

Please understand: if you do not complete the instructions in this email, you will not be able to work on your live model during your class.

Registration is different depending on your circumstance:

1) If you currently practice permanent makeup in California, but not LA County:

• Congrats, you are licensed to operate as a guest in LA for up to 5 consecutive days, which means no further registration is required.
• Please REPLY to this email with proof of your CA permanent makeup registration. This will let us know that you are ready to begin!

2) If you are not currently registered as a permanent makeup artist:

You must first complete your Bloodborne Pathogen Training before registering with LA County. LA County only validates Bloodborne Pathogens Trainings done specifically for Los Angeles. Please complete the exact exam for Los Angeles County that is boxed in red (make sure to choose Los Angeles County Blood Borne Pathogens Class). This is an online course in how to protect the practitioner (you) and the client from the transmission of infectious diseases. Please follow all instructions, complete and pass the quiz (this process takes approximately three hours) once this is completed, you will receive your certificate via email. 

Please move on to step 2 once you have completed your Bloodborne Pathogen Training.
