Is FINANCING available for eyeliner tattoo training?
How big are class sizes?
We purposefully keep our eyeliner tattoo training class sizes to 6 or fewer students. This ensures quality one-on-one time with the instructor as well as develop relationships with your peers. You will also have quality time with your instructor while working on a live model. Working directly with the master artist is the key to a successful technique and training.
Is a tattoo license required?
- Tattoo licenses are required to work in most states.
- If you are not currently licensed in your state, please become familiar with your state guidelines, you can’t work on clients in your state without obtaining required state licensing. We do not license for tattoo in any state.
- Note: Oregon licensing requires that tattoo artists attend full time school, 50 practical’s and must pass state boards to obtain a license. This licensing process is lengthy and cannot be avoided. Our courses teach additional technique and while they can be taken before obtaining Oregon licensing, we like to make it clear that Oregon residents, working in Oregon, must have a valid Oregon Tattoo License. This training does not count toward Oregon school required hours but does count toward your continued educational hours. We teach technique not taught in Oregon Licensed Tattoo Schools, so our training is invaluable to a new artist working in the cosmetic tattoo industry.
How many days are the eyeliner tattoo training classes?
The eyeliner tattoo training course spans two days with an optional third day of Dusty Shadow Eyeliner Tattoo Training.
The online training portion of the course is available upon receipt of deposit for in-person course or payment in full of a la carte course. Access it as often as you like.
Is there a live model?
Yes!
- Working with a live model in eyeliner tattoo training is imperative to your success.
- Learning how to work on the skin is the most important part of an in-person course.
- Each student will have time on the skin to learn all styles with proper one on one instruction.
- Notes: Some courses will include a shared model, while others will have individual models.
- If you cannot prove technique on fake skins, we may not allow you to work on a live model. However, if you have not mastered a sufficient technique and need more time to practice, you may attend an additional class and work on a live model at no additional cost to you.
- We will require that you submit skins to us for review before signing you up for an additional class.
Do I need to bring food and water?
We provide continental breakfast and lunch and beverages. If you have strict dietary concerns, please let us know in advance. We would love to accommodate your dietary restrictions, if we cannot then we will recommend you bring your own food.
Where is the eyeliner tattoo training facility?
We have a beautiful new state-of-the-art private training space located in the heart of downtown Vancouver, just a few minutes' walk from the waterfront, delicious restaurants and hotels!
What is class like? Is it casual?
We are proud to say that class is casual and fun! You may dress comfortably, but please be aware that we take video and pictures during class. Dress as you would at your place of business, when working on clients. Jeans are fine, funky is fine. Our community is very supportive and inclusive, please express yourself and leave here feeling inspired and empowered.
Do I need to bring any supplies, tools or notebooks?
Just bring yourself. We will provide everything you need for class.
What is hourly consulting?
Consulting applies to you if you are:
- a previous eyeliner student requiring additional training (more than just a quick question)
- a professional eyeliner artist who has some detailed questions for our artists but might not need a full training.
If you have detailed questions about specifics of any course, you can schedule a Zoom, phone call or email with the trainer.
Call to schedule!
Note: our staff will answer questions you have about a course you are considering taking at no charge, ask all the questions you want! The consulting is specifically for circumstances where you need the full attention of our artists for an hour or more.
The charge is $150 per hour.
What is a shadow day?
Shadow Days are available to students who have completed an eyeliner course with DAELA.
They can be tacked on to the end of a training or scheduled after the training.
You will spend a day in our Vancouver, WA location with your trainer and observe them through the normal course of business:
- Receiving clients
- Gathering waiver signatures
- Consulting
- performing services
- Checking them out
- All other daily activities which include spending time on social media, building trays, and sanitizing their space.
Who is this good for? This is an exceptional day if you are new to the business and have never interacted with clients or if you have been in the business and feel you could use some 'bedside manner' training or help in task managing your busy day.
What is an extra model day?
An Extra Model Day looks like this:
- You will spend the first half of the day observing the trainer take a client.
- You will do additional machine work.
- Lunch is provided.
- After lunch you will take a live model!
This addition is valuable to someone new in the business who feels they need additional live model work and would also benefit from seeing the artist work on another client. This is very much like a Shadow Day except you get time on the machine on fake skins and on a live client.
What is online eyeliner tattoo training?
Online Eyeliner tattoo training is a detailed training available a la carte and is also included with in-person courses.
The course is pre-recorded, so you take the sections as your time allows.
If you sign up for an in-person course, you are given instant access to the online training.
If you take online training and then want to add the in-person course, we deduct the $785 you paid for the online training from your course cost!
What is a $500 future course credit?
Every course comes with a $500 future course credit.
If you are interested in taking one or all of our courses, you will receive $500 off each course, after the first course!
