Meet Sofia, the Artist Behind the Academy

  • As the founder of Ink & Grace, I’ve had the honor of sharing my knowledge with hundreds of students, helping them build confidence, skill, and lasting success in their PMU careers.

  • My tutoring programs are built on personal experience and hard-earned knowledge. What I teach isn’t just theory — it’s a carefully crafted system born from years of challenges, mistakes, growth, and breakthroughs. I openly share the real secrets and essential lessons I’ve learned — especially the ones that address the struggles most PMU artists face but few talk about.

  • We’ve all started somewhere. And we’ve all faced the fears of not getting it right — symmetry, retention, healing, client expectations...Like many artists, I once dreamed of becoming a master who could deliver ideal, lasting results — every time. Today, my mission is to help you become that artist.

  • This advanced training program is your opportunity to gain those vital skills — without needing to travel abroad or invest in costly international courses.

  • I’ve had the privilege to learn from some of the top international educators in the PMU industry, and I continue to refine my craft to this day. Now, I bring that knowledge directly to you  with the highest standards and the most modern techniques.

Tutoring Day 2

  • Day 2: Live Demo & Certification Work

  • Your second day is about observing, learning from real-life application, and creating your own certified model work under guidance.

Tutoring Day 1 

  • Theory & Hands-on Practice on Latex : 
    Your first day is dedicated to building a solid theoretical foundation and developing your technique through hands-on practice.

  • Fundamentals of Facial and Skin Anatomy: 
    Understand the structural differences in skin types and how they affect pigment retention, healing, and application. Learn to personalize each procedure according to the client’s unique facial shape, skin tone, and texture for the most harmonious result.

  • Pre-drawing Basics:
    Master the art of pre-drawing with symmetry and balance. Learn how to map brows and lips with precision, taking the client’s bone structure, asymmetries, and expression lines into account. A perfect outcome starts with a perfect outline.

    Get hands-on with PMU machines. Learn about different device types, speeds, and needle configurations. Understand how each setting affects pigment delivery, skin trauma, and final results.

  • Latex Practice:
    Apply everything learned directly onto practice skins (latex), allowing you to refine your hand technique, depth control, pixel creation, and movement rhythm before working on a live model.
