Meet Your Trainer
Tara Rebel
I offer professional training in Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) for artists who want to build real technical skill and long-term confidence in the industry.
I have been performing cosmetic tattooing since 2017 and am a New Jersey Certified Platinum Trainer. Students are trained using the internationally recognised Micropigmentation Educators curriculum, ensuring a structured, high-standard education respected throughout the field.
This course covers machine control, needle selection, pigment theory, hairline design, density building, sanitation protocols, consultation procedures and aftercare. Strong emphasis is placed on creating natural, undetectable results tailored to different scalp types and hair loss patterns.
My goal is to provide focused, technique-driven training that prepares you to work confidently with real client, not just leave with a certificate.
