Live Model Class

Launching our live model class outside the UK has been my dream plan ever since we crossed the pond back in 2019! I’ve always wanted to recruit Botched Ink® trainers from our officially trained and experienced Botched Ink® techs. This is how I’ve always done it in the UK, it makes for the most knowledgeable trainers, who can easily share their love for Botched Ink with our students

Things got delayed for a while (!), but in October this year, I was finally able to come over to the United States and meet the wonderful Botched Ink® techs who I’ve been talking and planning with for so long. I’m going for a few quality trainers, with beautiful venues in great locations nicely spread around the country, enabling the best live model training events!

I’m back in the US with a live model class in Tulsa, OK on 19^th March 2024, hosted by the wonderful Shanan Zickefoose from Regeneration Tulsa, who I had the pleasure of meeting at the SPCP conference in Texas!

I’m also running a ‘Train the Botched Ink® Trainer’ class during this visit, I’ll be in Tulsa only. I’m really excited to meet more Botched Ink® techs who’d also make wonderful trainers, and invite you to get in touch and make your intensions known!

Canada & Australia

I'm also looking for wonderful trainers in a few key locations in Canada and Australia. I do need to meet trainers in person first, so get in touch, especially if you can travel to me in the UK. Manchester International Airport is 15 minutes from our Botched Ink head office at Beautiful Ink (Google Maps link) or meet me while I’m in Tulsa, OK, USA in March

Lisa Henning the owner of Botched Ink® training and exclusive removal serum. I've become known as a world leading expert on saline tattoo removal, with more than 10 years as a removal technician, and Botched Ink® owner since it's development in 2018

I guess it's because of my determination for Botched Ink® to lead the removal industry for quality and standards; with our Botched Ink® training being the most 5* reviewed and recommended removal course available

With a name like Botched Ink®, we were never going to be quiet, and I planned large from the start! The Botched Ink® removal course has more than 400 student reviews on this website and on our Facebook page. We're also one of the most talked about removal brands in the industry Facebook groups, you'll still find me around most days online sharing valuable tips and advice

IMPORTANT TO READ BEFORE BOOKING

Existing Training: This course is available to technicians already certified in microblading or permanent makeup (eyebrows) after receiving in-person training. If you’re only certified in lip blush, skin camouflage, areola, freckles or scalp micropigmentation, Botched Ink® training is not suitable for you

Active Technicians: We check that you’re currently working as a microblading or PMU technician via your social media or website. Inactive profiles may affect your certification or supply of Botched Ink®

Removal Trainers: We do not offer any removal training, or supply Botched Ink® serum to removal trainers, or techs working for training companies offering removal. This is a conflict of interest. We do not permit trainers to promote, use or recommend Botched Ink® on their own saline tattoo removal training course. This would be trademark infringement and a conflict of interest, read the Trademarks tab

Body Tattoos, Eyeliner & Lip Tattoos: Botched Ink® is not approved for use on these areas. Botched Ink® is an advanced removal serum, and what makes it so wonderful for eyebrows, lip liner, freckles and small areas of scalp micropigmentation, make it too risky or dangerous for other areas

Certification: We offer a Certificate of Achievement for Saline Tattoo Removal using Botched Ink®. Most students complete training to our satisfaction and will be certified. However certification is not automatic

Your Responsibilities

As an official Botched Ink® tech, we're in this together. Botched Ink® is a brand you represent, not just another product in the drawer!

It's vital you stay up-to-date with our treatment advice and recommendations. Engaging with our communications helps ensure successful and safe treatments, enabling clients to have easy healing and the best results. We keep you updated via email, our Official Tech Resources, and our Botched Ink® tech Facebook group

Free for Official Botched Ink® Techs

• Online Tech Resources, adverts and promo materials
• Free training updates and refreshers
• Access the Botched Ink® and Correction & Removal Specialist online training (in tech resources)
• Private Facebook group for Official techs
• Email updates and news

There might be instances where we need to part ways with a technician. This could happen if a technician starts their own saline tattoo removal training, or if their practices don't align with our safety standards or brand reputation. In such cases, they can continue offering saline tattoo removal, just not with our serum or using the Botched Ink® brand or trademarks

When it comes to the Botched Ink® Find a Tech map on our website, inclusion isn't guaranteed. We feature active technicians who likely have in-date Botched Ink® available (training or purchasing from us within the last 2 years). If a tech doesn’t have their own business website or social media page, showing them as a PMU or microblading tech, we reserve the right to not list

Lastly, it's important to make sure you're allowed to offer saline tattoo removal or lightening services in your area and that your insurance company recognises Botched Ink® training

Being clear and transparent from the start, shows our commitment to the support and guidance we offer Botched Ink® techs, and care for the clients who visit them

Revised & Upgraded

In November 2023, we launched our fully reworked Botched Ink® online training. Botched Ink® continues to lead the way for cosmetic tattoo removal, both our training and exclusive Botched Ink® removal solution! We've revised and upgraded our training information into a new, easy-to-understand fundamental training, plus an additional Correction & Removal Specialist course

We were already ahead of the pack, and now firmly believe Botched Ink® training is next level - You get both courses plus the model class!

• Botched Ink® online training - All techs (6.5 hours). Saline tattoo removal training using Botched Ink®. Includes 1 hour of demo videos, plus loads of high value learning, tips, advice and discussion with other removal techs!

• Correction & Removal Specialist - Some techs need, all will want! (1 hour). Advanced pigment knowledge, helping techs understand the pigment they’ll be removing
