This was seriously the best experience. Rachel and Su my instructors were amazing !! Rachel and Su were so knowledgeable, helpful , supportive , so positive , reassuring and very hands on with my training which meant a lot . The class is all day which sounds a bit intimidating at first but it flys by ! I felt so comfortable with these ladies that it made this class so fun and made all my nerves just float away . They provide lunch for you which is so great cause if your like me you are constantly hungry so that's a nice add on ! I got to work on 3 models and by my last one I was feeling super confident and ready to start my new microblading career thanks to these wonderful ladies and this class ! You get sent home with a work book with alll the info you learned so you can always go back and review it . Also everything you need to work on future clients . Pigments , tools ... Thank you again Rachel and Su you guys made that class such a great experience ! read more

After sending my 1st pic. I was receiving many messages about scheduling an appointment. Come to find, once I decided I was declined. I was very disappointed read more

It took them 3 reschedule dates at last minute to get my already payed certification. Changed teachers on me, "let me know" they also own law firms so I felt intimidated when I demanded my money back after the 3rd time they canceled. This school is a mess. read more

I took the class on Camaflouge Tattooing instructed by Sue. The class was great. I was given some great information to take home. I loved that the class was almost one on one. The best part was the amount of hands on time I was given to work on my model. It gave me the opportunity to get comfortable and leave with confidence that I can do this! Sue was awesome! I will be taking another class hopefully very soon. read more

I'm changing my review as I feel I wasn't prepared for a few things leaving this class. Originally, I felt this was an amazing experience, setting me up for cosmetic tattooing. Although I loved the class and was able to practice on live models, they don't thoroughly teach you about setting up your station, tearing down your station, and proper sanitization for California standards. In class, they say Clorox wipes are approved wipes, depending on the county. That's inaccurate. It needs to be Clorox medical wipes which are mainly used in a hospital setting. California requires wipes such as Sani Cloth. I was not prepared to face my county and become permitted to work. That part has been long and dreadful because my set up and tear down/ sanitization was not on point. Your county may also require sanitization reports for your microblades which, if you purchase from this school's website, they can't provide you. read more

The worst place to get ahold of someone to speak too. They overcharged and would not give my money back until I threatened with a lawyer !

I took the Microblading course and became certified at the Camarillo class on Sunday. I had been looking for a place to train at that was close to home, because having to travel far was not ideal, especially after becoming a new mom this year. The Certification class is only for one long day, but I like that follow up is a continuation for months to come. That make me feel at ease knowing that it technically isn't just one day training. I got some guidance from Wendy, Josh, & Christine. They were very encouraging and gave positive motivation during the Microblading procedures. My models were excited and left happy with their new eyebrows. The results were beautiful and natural looking! One of my models that originally had no hair, left with tears of joy, being so happy to finally have beautiful natural looking brows! It's a touching experience to be able to help someone feel beautiful! I'm so excited to add this new service to my client in my business at SJ Studio Salon & Spa! read more

Received my hands on training and certificate today! It was a jam packed day but I love that they put you right in it (with instructors, in small groups) right from the start. I still need my permit and completed inspection but I'll be practicing in the mean time! The owner and her husband as well as the entire staff (even her assistant Jo Ann) truly care about each artists success in this field. Prior to choosing Microblading Academy, I shopped around, and I'm so glad I moved forward with MBA. Super professional and thorough! (Team Jamaica/Wendy!) read more

I have taken training for scalp Micropigmentation twice by Christine Grennier and absolutely loved every second! Her training is very thorough and complete. She is an excellent instructor and definitely has a passion for teaching her students to become highly skilled with the most Natural Looking Solution to Hair Restoration. It's a treatment that Camouflages hair loss or thinning hair to make you look like you have a full head of hair. read more

I can't express how HaPPy I am with the Scalp MicroPigmentation (SMP) treatment received just a few days ago. From the initial consultation to the actual procedure and results. Nashawn and Christine worked together to blend and fill my thinning hair, creating a realistic hairline. With in just a couple of hours the results were visible to the naked eye, giving the illusion of a full head of hair. I've had many compliments from close friends who know my hair has been an issue. Thank you Su, Nashawn, Christine and the Microblading Academy for giving me thicker looking hair. Mahalo Nui Loa read more

Update: I was contacted by Christine the owner and was given a complementary stand in class . Where I was able to relearn everything with Christine . She is a much better teacher than that other two I had in the past. I now feel more confident and I'm thankful I had to opportunity to go back and retake the class again. read more

Consumers beware. I decided to take the microblading certification course through Microblading Academy Inc and it left much to be desired. The course did not have any structure, was not an environment conducive to learning, and I felt like I walked away wasting $2650. With that being said, months later I am now an established microblading artist with my own studio, after spending EXTENSIVE hours self-teaching myself via the internet, youtube, researching, and practicing, because this institution provided me with little to nothing. Course content- The website falsely advertises that its curriculum includes tattoo corrections, shading techniques, sterilization, machine vs blade, and several other things that were not covered at all in the course. When deciding on a microblading certification course to register for, tattoo corrections and shading techniques were important factors to me when registering for a microblading course. However, the course did not include this. When I asked my instructor about shading techniques, they literally told me to "go watch videos on youtube" about shading techniques. That is not the response I expect to hear when paying thousands of dollars for a certification course. The class is only 8 hours, so I expected it to be packed full with learning, however half the time was spent with the instructors sitting around. The course also didn't cover any type of information on health department certification like the website advertises. In the short 8 hours of this class, the first hour was wasted arguing with one student about paying her tuition. The instructor quickly read through about half of the "textbook" you are provided with. They spent about 30 seconds on color theory, and 30 seconds on how to map. There was a lot of time practicing hairstrokes on practice skin, but no real support or guidance from instructors. Students were left asking questions and trying to pick the brains of the instructors because there was SO much that wasn't covered. Certification - One of the things this course promised was that we would get our certification the day of the class. However myself and another student did not receive any type of certificate that day because they "didn't have it printed". The instructors apologized and told me they would overnight my certificate the next day. I did not receive my certificate in the mail until a week later. Not only that, but one of the student's microblading kit wasn't there so she had to borrow supplies the whole day. Very frustrating and again, not something I would expect when paying this amount of money. Prepwork- A 7-ish page document of blank faces / eyebrows to practice before the class, and how to map, however it was lackluster in explaining HOW to draw proper hairstrokes. It was more "here you go, magically know how to do this!" (the general theme of this course) Overall the course was sloppy and unstructured and not enough information was taught to feel ready to microblade. This course is extremely overpriced for what it is and I question its legitimacy. Aspiring microblading artists, please do your research when picking a microblading institution. Because there are many like this that are just trying to make a quick buck but send their students off with a "certification" when they really have NO idea how to safely and properly microblade, lowering the standards for the entire microblading industry. Furthermore, the instructors are inexperienced in comparison to other microblading institutions and don't even teach their students how to properly hold a blade and create a hair stroke (blade must be 90 degrees, cannot lean, and skin must be STRETCHED). Again, PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH. I have made multiple attempts in reaching out to the owner of this business, to explain my dilemma and frustrations, and I have received zero response. To me it seems like this is just a business for her and that she doesn't actually care about her students or the quality of her institution. I am prepared for the owner to reply to this review to make out that I am the bad in an attempt to save her reputation, however I tried to reach out to the owner months prior to writing this review and was never contacted back. Very disappointed. read more

I was a model on Sunday 7/30/2017 in Camarillo, and I would like to thank you so much for my new Brows. I absolutely Love them. When I went to work the next day no one noticed what i had done. When I told them I got MicroBlading they were amazed how natural they looked. Again thank you so very much!!!!:) read more

I just did the microblading course and the instructor Rachel is amazing! She did and awesome job teaching our course. I love that it's a small class and she can spend that one on one time with you.

***FRAUD ALERT*** low quality training, unprofessional & inexperienced instructors. Particularly avoid the scalp micropigmentation class with Christine. My model didn't show up so she had me tattoo her head. She didn't teach me. I taught her to use paper towels instead of kitchen towels when tattooing scalps. They changed the time date and location of the class on me. They gave me an outdated machine. They were supposed to provide me with a pen style tattoo equipment but they gave me a old machine with a clunky motor on the back. I also had issues getting information from them regarding their ink. They change the time date and location of the class. They gave me an outdated machine. They were supposed to provide me with a pen style tattoo equipment but they gave me a old machine with a clunky motor on the back. I also had issues getting information from them regarding their ink. I did not receive a model. This is completely unacceptable and, I would not want somebody to work on me who has never done a tattoo before. I did not receive proper instruction or training. They shorted me on equipment and when I ask them for assistance they made it seem like I was bothering them and Christine told me "I'm busy running a law firm 60 hours a week. that has absolutely nothing to do with my concerns and their school. In California you need 10 procedures and 40 hours of training to receive insurance. This is not what they told me when I signed up for the class. I addressed all the issues with them before demanding a full refund they were only willing to give me a partial refund and this is unacceptable. What they are doing is false advertising. I'm sharing my experience with others for their own good. Avoid this training like the plague. Do you research and go elsewhere. Don't fall victim to their scam!! read more

These women, specifically Jennifer and Gio , are amazing. They are professional, patient, fun and definitely know what they're talking about when it comes to micro blading and all that it entails.

You are going to love it! read more

I took the Microblading course about 1 week ago and it was just amazing. I had no experience in the beauty industry, but my instructor Allee, guided me every step of the way. I love that the training was hands on. During my class I was able to work on 3 clients and again Allee was standing next to me the entire time. I felt very confident with the one on one training experience I received. I also really liked that the class was a one day class and on a Sunday, with my busy schedule I wouldn't have been able to do it otherwise. Thank you so much Christine, Allee and the entire Microblading Academy staff, they are always available for me if I have questions or concerns. I now feel ready to start my Microblading business and I recommend this academy to anyone who is thinking of training in Microblading. read more

I took the microblading academy course in March, I loved it! If you're looking into getting microblading certified, I highly suggest these folks!!! read more

I had originally signed up to take a class with Microblading Academy back in April 2017. Due to a move and the excitement of becoming pregnant, I had to keep pushing my class date out. JoAnn was very helpful in rescheduling my class a ton of times, and answered all of questions quickly and thoroughly. During the class itself, I learned a lot about the Microblading procedure and was very satisfied with both my time and money spent to take the class. I had the pleasure of having Josh and Channing as my instructors, and they were both so great! Josh was really funny and you could easily see his passion for not only Microblading, but for the beauty industry as a whole! He was prepared, thorough and encouraging throughout the class. When it came time to practice stokes on the "skin" sheets provided, Josh and Channing were right behind us watching, informing, correcting, and performing for/with us. Though Josh and Channing were both amazing Microbladists, they both had different looking stroke while using the same technique. That made me feel good, since my strokes also looked different than theirs! Anyway, I had the opportunity to blade 3 different clients in my class and I loved every minute of it! I already have appointments set up for my first week of working and I cannot wait!! Thank you guys so much!! read more

So glad I took this class! Very professional & alot of information and practice. Feeling more confident and excited to start microblading!

Microblading Academy Inc. is amazing! I had a wonderful experience being trained by Rachel Lee. Her energy and positive encouragement made me feel completely confident and relaxed. Rachel's instruction is spot on! She covered the necessities in the handbook and then did a brief demo on blading before letting us begin practicing on our practice skins. The experience was so inspirational I knew right away that I was in the right place learning from phenomenal instructor who is a part of this superior Academy. The comfort of knowing that I can always come back to practice on more models is so reassuring. Rachel and Microblading Academy Inc pride themselves on success and after completing this course l am super stoked to get started seeing my clients and creating beautifully stunning brows for them Thanks to, Sue for answering ALL my questions and I had a lot of them, Rachel for your bubbly inspiring energy you are truly talented! To those who took the time to read this review...just know that I searched many many other schools before deciding on Microblading Academy Inc. and I am completely satisfied with my choice. read more

I have to say by far the best experience I've had with any certification class. Su is amazing at her job the motovation she gives, the instructors were amazing the patience and the one on one couldn't have asked for more. Money well spent. I will be returning for further education. A must for a beginner's-advanced training. Thank you to Christine for opening the doors to your Academy read more

I spent hours researching microblading academies, painstakingly lamenting on whether to choose a multi-day program or an immersive one-day training. Pricing varied significantly between the choices. As a working mom, I resolved to take a fast path and felt confident in my selection of Microblading Academy. In the end, I felt empowered by the skilled instructors and confident in my ability having been coached and carefully guided throughout the training. Most importantly, I felt supported even weeks after taking the class. The course material included a number of helpful tools and a wealth of resources via a handy workbook with sample forms to boot! I also had a very strong network of professionals at my fingertips whom I could reach out to for advice and guidance in this new venture. For anyone struggling to make a choice, rest assured you're in good hands for life with Microblading Academy. read more
