Tapping & Shading Fundamentals – Online Course
Online training only works when it’s built correctly.
Ever since online courses began to pop up for PMU, artists questioned their validity and wondered if this style of teaching was appropriate for permanent cosmetics.
In 2012, SofTap saw that not only was online training appropriate for PMU, but absolutely necessary for artists that did not have access to quality training near them.
Since then, we have developed a suite of online courses that range from short and sweet, to intense and comprehensive.
Online courses and workshops are an ideal way for cross-over hand method and machine artists to start learning more about doing PMU with SofTap.
