After taking the same piercing class over and over for the past 9 years, Crea realized that Florida Piercers deserved a better, more informative class that actually teaches you something new and is brought to you by industry professionals not just random doctors charging outrageous prices and giving you the wrong information.

Together, Jenny and Crea bring you a Piercing certification class that is educational, informative, interactive and the best part – affordable.

Getting The Perfect Tattoo

Whether you’re looking for your first small tattoo or you’re planning out the rest of your bodysuit, your goal is the same: getting the perfect tattoo. Essentially all you need to do is match the perfect ideas and tattoo design with the perfect tattoo artist. If only it were as easy as it sounds.

Because of its relative permanency, a tattoo is not something to be taken lightly unless you already have a thorough knowledge of, and experience with, the process. They may be painful to get, but they’re even more painful to remove or cover. In tattooing, mistakes are very easy to make, and very difficult to fix.

But lucky for us, it’s easier than ever to make smart tattoo decisions, due to the wealth of information now at our fingertips. Without doubt, the decision you make to get tattooed will affect you for the rest of your life. This seminar and guide will help you get started, or keep going, in the right direction.
