Academy FAQ

Questions?
We Have Answers.

Everything you need to know before enrolling in the Advanced Nano Brows Course.

Yes — the Advanced Nano Brows Course is designed for experienced PMU artists and Brow Master Course graduates who want to deepen their nano brow technique. You should have a working knowledge of permanent makeup fundamentals before enrolling.

You receive an MLA certificate of completion. California requires county Body Art practitioner registration and Bloodborne Pathogens training to work; we show you how.

We keep class sizes intentionally small — a maximum of 6 students — to ensure everyone gets personal attention and hands-on guidance from our instructors.

Yes — our Woodland Hills studio is conveniently located near several hotels and short-term rentals. We're happy to share recommendations when you enroll. Many of our students travel from across the country and internationally.

In-person training runs from 9am to 5pm daily. Plan to arrive a few minutes early on your first day so we can get you set up and comfortable before we begin.

You'll receive access to the online modules as soon as your enrollment is confirmed. Most students complete the online fundamentals at their own pace before their in-person session.

The full program is 3 days — 1 day of online fundamentals followed by 2 consecutive days of in-person training at our studio. By Day 3, you'll have performed a complete nano brow procedure on a live model.

Yes — you can pay over time with Cherry. At checkout, choose “Pay monthly with Cherry” and get approved — it takes about a minute, and checking your eligibility won't affect your credit score. Seats aren't held until you're approved; once you confirm your approval, we hold your seat for 48 hours and text you a secure Cherry checkout link. Your first payment is due at that checkout, and your enrollment is confirmed. PayPal financing (Pay Later or PayPal Credit) is also available at checkout. See microbladingla.com/payment-plans for details.
