OMBRÉ MICROSHADING

Lisa is simply AMAZING!! I recently took Lisa's powder brow course and learned so much! Lisa is very knowledgeable in this field. Not only are you paying for the course but you also get ongoing support from Lisa. If you're doing your research on for the best class this is it hands down. I love that the classes are very tiny, 2-3 people a class which gives you a better opportunity to really focus and ask as many questions as you need. Lisa was very encouraging and always had a solution for any problem I came to her with. I can't wait to go back and take additional training. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! Thank You Lisa

MICROBLADING

If you're considering microblading training in Chicago,  you've found it! I took a hands on microblading class at The Beauty Crew Academy and I'm so happy I did. Lisa was such a patient instructor and really stayed with me until I "got it". I was worried I wouldn't learn enough in four days, but she made it so easy to take everything in. Since taking her class I've reached out for help and she's not shy with her tips! Best investment I've made.

MICROBLADING

Lisa Pizello is amazing with her instruction. I took part in her microblading certification - she only takes two per class (class consists of two 8 hour days). She provided us each a model to do our first service one, which was great as I left feeling confident in my ability to continue on my own. Probably more notable than all that, she continues to be available on an ongoing basis for help, including, but not limited to, random questions on the procedure, product/supply recommendations, and marketing ideas. Highly recommend certifying with The Beauty Crew! Thanks again, Lisa!

PMU FUNDAMENTALS

Lisa is such an incredible instructor. I can't say enough about how talented this woman is. Her classes are incredibly thorough and her techniques have been so immensly helpful getting me started on my PMU career. She gives you the personal attention needed to really perfect your craft. I would absolutely recommend this school to anyone!
