Before and After
As with any other permanent makeup procedures, your clients will experience mild scabbing and some swelling during the healing process. It is always a good idea to prepare your clients for the worst and educate them on what they can expect during the healing process. In the Fundamentals of Eyeliner course, Mini and Beauté Academy dive deep into the healing process and how to prepare your client for the easiest healing process and optimum healed results.
