"I sucked at brows. I sucked at talking into the camera. I sucked at hiring. I sucked at managing people. I sucked at writing.... I sucked at dealing with criticism. I sucked at managing money. I sucked at networking. I sucked at teaching. I sucked at taking photos. I sucked at speaking in public.
I'm no different than anyone else. I'm just willing to suck harder. 😂😬
SIS, DON'T YOU SEE?!
Being bad is a part of it. Being awkward is a part of it. Getting betrayed is a part of it. Typos and bad grammar is a part of it. Losing money is a part of it. Being taken advantage of is a part of it. People not liking you is a part of it.
IT'S HOW YOU GET THERE! ❤"
Words from @realsheilabella. Thankful for this inspo! It's all so true for all of us out there taking risks and being ambitious.

Your education matters to me. Your safety and the way you work as you begin your new career as a microblading artist is in my hands when you choose to learn through Gemineye Academy and I take that seriously. I had the honor and pleasure of hosting the City of Sioux Falls Dept of Health as they observed a microblading session. I am working closely with them for all of your educational needs and they've asked for my insight when it comes to writing the new regulations that wil...l soon be coming into effect for our city. I can't tell you how much this day meant to me as an artist and educator. I promise to always bring you the best education, products, and practices that I possibly can. I am passionate about this field of work and want to maintain the highest standard of practice. I'll always look out for other artists and do what's best for our entire community of microbladers. ❤ A huge thank you to the City of SF Health Dept for truly caring about our community and for trusting me with even a small portion of your time, experience, and knowledge. We are lucky to have each of you. . . #microblading #ombrebrows #microbladingtraing #artist #education #permanentmakeup #cosmetictattoo #wakeupandmakeup #powderbrow #browgoals #browsonfleek #browsoftheday #eyebrowtattoo #eyebrowsonpoint #eyebrowsonfleek #beauty #siouxfalls #education #training #midwest #iowa #minnesota #makeuptutorials #hairstylist #cosmetology #visitsf @ Sioux Falls, South Dakota
See MoreEducational post:
Flick, don't flick, or circles? There are a lot of different opinions out there about which technique is best for machine shading. Some educators say its best to use a flicking motion (as seen in this video I took during a client yesterday). Others say that it's best to never lift your needle out of the skin because it helps with consistency in pressure (true). Still other artists/educators teach that using a circular motion helps to get the brows super satu...rated quickly. Personally, I use all 3 in different scenarios. 95% of the time I use the flicking method because I see healed results looking light, airy, and "powdery," but there definitely needs to be a ton of practice work being done to make sure pressure is consistent with this method. Fellow artists/educators: which do you use and would you care to share why? Xoxo .

Flick, don't flick, or circles? When shading with a tattoo machine, there are lots of different opinions on what to do with the needle. Some educators say to use a flicking motion (like in this video), some say to never lift your needle out of the skin because it helps with consistency in pressure, and some say use a circular motion to fully saturate the brows. I've found that there are pros and cons to keep in mind with any technique, but for me, the flicki...ng motion helps to keep the shading very pixilated, which gives that light, airy, powdery look, but there definitely needs to be a lot of practice work behind the scenes to make sure your pressure stays consistent. This is the technique taught in our classes. Fellow artist: which technique do you prefer? Care to share why? Xoxo .

See MoreIf you've had cosmetic tattooing done before and wondering if you're a good candidate for a cover up/camouflage using our Gemineye technique, here is a fantastic example of what the original tattoo needs to look like before anything can be done. The previous tattoo needs to be faded to something similar to this "before" photo in order for us to create a more lifelike, 3-dimensional look. If this is you, please send clear photos of your brows before booking your appointment. ❤... .

See MoreNot only does the lashline enhancement create the illusion of fuller, thicker eyelashes even without mascara, but it also can help with dry eyes! If you suffer from scratchy, dry eyes that always seem to feel like they have makeup residue in them, semi-permanent lashline enhancement might be your cure! Instead of coating your tear glands with makeup, try tattooing.
