Being a nurse is a wonderful career choice! It allows you to have a positive impact on other’s lives on a daily basis. This is something rare and incredibly powerful. There are dozens of studies that show a correlation to a sense of purpose and careers that impact people on a daily basis (social workers, teachers, etc). The only problem is it isn’t paying your rent or maybe it does pay the rent but with little left for anything else. So what do you do with those caretaking skills, that intuitive nature and the desire to help people? How can you still put those wonderful attributes to use and yet make enough money to pay that pesky proverbial piper? What if there was something you could learn to do in your spare time, something that puts all of those skills to use, something that has a positive impact on people’s lives and boosts their self-esteem, that could solve all of your money problems? What if you didn’t even have to quit nursing? So I ask you, what about microblading?
Microblading is a semi-permanent art, performed in the brow area, to create improved shape, color or fullness. This can be a wonderful corrective cosmetic treatment for those suffering with alopecia, chemo-related hair loss or trichotillomania. The procedure is performed under topical anesthetic, in which a tiny handheld blade, is used to create superficial cuts in the surface layers of the skin, pigment is then added to these superficial cuts or “strokes” via a process called “backfilling” or another process referred to as “color-bathing” and sometimes a combination of the two is also used. This creates a semi-permanent surface layer ‘tattoo’ if you will. When strokes are laid in the proper order and fashion they mimic the appearance of individual brow hairs. If this is done well, one should not be able to tell where the microbladed ‘hairs’ end and the client’s natural brow hair begins.
Microblading can be incredibly lucrative either as a primary source of income or as a supplemental one. The average cost of a microblading treatment is between $500-$800. This means that if you only did two treatments a month you would already add a cool extra one grand to your monthly income! In fact, with this kind of earning potential, you could add as much as $100K a year to your pocket, just working weekends!! Not to mention how much you could make if you decided to leave nursing and do microblading full time! Wouldn’t it be great to finally pay off that student loan debt? Wouldn’t it be lovely to be able to take that vacation you’ve been promising yourself, for years, that you are going to take? What about paying off your car or even your house? Suddenly, it all becomes possible!
So what does it take to become a certified microblading artist? This is a multi-pronged answer. The first answer is that, unlike, nursing, where there are standardized requirements for licensure, there are no such set standards governing microblading certification. Surely, these are coming, however, the industry, as a whole, is still rather new. This means that every institution will have it’s own guidelines and criteria for certification. Therefore due diligence falls solely on the consumer. So what should you, as a consumer, watch out for? The most important thing, when selecting an institution for training and certification is transparency. A phone number and address should both be available on their website. Companies that do are not able to provide this information only exist in cyberspace, Good luck getting ahold of anyone should you need a refund! You should be able to call and talk to a real person, they should allow you to ask any question you would like and answer as many questions as you would like to ask. They should not get short with you for asking questions nor get flustered when giving an answer. Information should be freely given, without hesitation and without drama. If they can’t answer a straightforward question without getting upset, it should be a red flag. Lastly, make sure that the masters chosen to train on the procedure have a good performance history with the procedure. Do they have a lot or a little experience? Have they done dozens or hundreds of procedures? Have they ever had any major complications, such as scarring? These are all valid questions that once again should be answered openly and honestly if they do not want to provide you with this information, move on and move on fast!
