BRAU Fundamentals
Our B R A U Fundamentals program is designed for beginners entering the world of cosmetic tattoo brows. No prior experience or training in the beauty industry is required. Over several weeks, we cover all aspects of brow tattooing, ensuring you are fully confident to start your career.
The course begins with a comprehensive online program that you can complete at your own pace before attending five in-studio days. These sessions include instructor-led training to help you refine your skills under expert guidance.
In this program, you'll learn various techniques, including Nano Brows (hairstrokes), Powder Brows (shading), Target Shading, and our signature Nano Fusion (combination) Brow. Mastering multiple techniques is crucial for working with different skin types and style preferences.
During the instructor-led sessions, you'll observe mentors working on a model and have the opportunity to work on two models under your instructors guidance. The online portion includes text, images, and numerous videos, which you'll have access to for a full year. Additionally, students receive lifetime support.
