I took an advanced 900 hour course in NY so im certified in all modalities including laser so that was my main focus. the only waxing i did was what i NEEDED to do for my quota. i mean of course i feel comfortable waxing arms and legs. but eyebrows i literally never did one in school, i’d do an underarm or something and count it as a brow, im just so scared to fuck someone up bc ik how possessive i am ab my brows.

i did my boyfriends a few months ago at home with satin smooths soft wax and lifted skin… when doing some research it said mens skin is tougher and the hair is thicker and since soft wax adheres to both the skin and hair(not something i remember being told in school)- its more likely to lift… so i immediately got rid of the soft wax and am planning to use bushbalm for everything (do you guys like it? is it the best option?). i just feel like its harder to be precise with hard wax (atleast what i’ve experienced on myself). im taking the detailist certification online course rn for lamination, tinting, mapping. ive done the lamination on myself a few times now and just tried tinting a few weeks ago but i dont think it really took.

but i also havent preformed brazilian’s. ive watched 2 of bushbalms demo zoom classes. but dont know how to feel confident going into it.

i have never done lashes. but im planning to do lifts and tints.

i bought ellebana’s profusion full kit to use for the brow lami and lash lifts and then got their belmacil tint kit.

i’ve been using medical scalpels to dermaplane myself for years now. but i havent done it on someone else. i normally cleanse, apply jojoba oil, dermaplane, and then recleanse to get the oil off and then maybe a calming/hydrating mask and soothing products.

i obviously need to get models. what do you guys recommend? how many people should i do free? im thinkingggg 3-5 people free and then like 5 more at a discount? for lash lift/tint, eyebrow mapping/lami/tint, brazilian’s, and dermaplaning.
