American Micropigmentation Academy

You'll enjoy complete control when applying Permanent Cosmetics using the SofTap(R) Manual Method. The Comfort System(c) is designed to make your in-line and grouped needles easy to see... your hand controls where they are placed on the skin and where the color will go. There's no guessing. For the beginning Permanent Makeup Professional, that's comforting to know. For the seasoned veteran, adding SofTap(R) will enhance your services.

In addition, you won't be plagued with cross-contamination issues with the SofTap(R) Comfort System(c), because each instrument comes pre-packaged and pre-sterilized. All you do is open the package and begin the application of permanent makeup. These instruments are single-use, and they are disposed in a sharps container immediately after the procedure is complete. This completely disposable system makes the SofTap(R) Comfort Needles an excellent choice for the Permanent Cosmetic professional.

The SofTap(R) Manual Pen is light-weight and comfortable. It is ergonomically designed, which makes the application of Permanent Makeup easy on your hand.... you'll be surprised at how much you can actually "feel" the skin during your procedures. You'll achieve soft and natural looks with SofTap(R), pretty Eyebrow Hairstrokes or a soft fill-in.... a nicely defined lipline or full lip color... and beautiful Eyeliner.

Even the most squeamish client will be put at ease because of the gentleness of the experience. For example, when applying Permanent Eyeliner you'll notice little to no eye movement because there aren't any vibrations from a machine. And, no loud motorized sounds. So your client can focus on soothing music you provide for an even more relaxing atmosphere. I've seen even the most anxious women fall asleep... and after the procedure I've heard them exclaim, "this was nothing like what I expected!" In addition, they were delighted with their new Permanent Makeup.

I know you'll enjoy learning SofTap(R) -- It's my goal to make your Training Week enjoyable yet challenging. When you leave here, I want you to feel confident and ready to begin your new career. I expect each trainee to come to class PREPARED, having spent plenty of time with your pre-training homework, which you will receive at the time of enrollment. I look forward to seeing you soon!
