Scar camouflage course with Evelyn

Scar camouflage is the part of paramedical tattooing where judgement matters most. A scar is not normal skin: it can be thicker, thinner, drier or less elastic, and it can take pigment very differently from the skin around it. This course is built around that reality.

What you learn

• Scar assessment: how scars form and mature, how to tell when a scar is ready, and when to say no.
• Colour theory and undertones: reading the skin around the scar, not only the scar itself.
• Custom pigment matching: building a formula for each client and testing it on the skin.
• Technique: needle choice, depth and hand speed on scar tissue, and why less is often more in the first session.
• Healing: what healed results look like, why scar tissue can release pigment unevenly, and how to plan follow-ups.
• Consultation and consent: setting honest expectations, contraindications and when to refer a client to a doctor.
• Business basics: building a portfolio safely, pricing and finding your first clients.

“In the beginning, your portfolio is everything. People need to see your work before they trust you with their skin.”
