Microblading & Microshading Permanent Makeup Training Courses

Certified Course 78 Reviews

Combo brows have become the most requested permanent makeup look in Toronto, and this 4-day True HD Microblading and Microshading course teaches you to deliver them at an advanced level. Over four focused days you learn crisp hand-stroke microblading and soft ombre powder shading, then blend the two into the natural, fuller combo brow that clients across the GTA keep asking for. Taught privately by award-winning trainer Tara, with more than 10 years of PMU experience, the course suits every level, from complete beginners starting the right way to working technicians upgrading a single-technique service into a premium two-in-one offering.

Rather than learning one method in isolation, you walk away able to read each client's brows and choose the right approach, hair strokes, powder shading or a tailored combo, for their skin type, age and desired result. Every day is spent hands-on with expert supervision and live models at our Humber Bay Shores studio in Etobicoke, so by day four you are confident performing combo brows on real clients, not just rehearsing on paper.

Combo Brow Demand Across Toronto and the GTA

Combo brows sit at the top of the permanent makeup market right now, and clients in Toronto, Etobicoke and across the wider GTA are actively searching for artists who can do more than a single technique. Because this course covers both True HD microblading and ombre powder shading, you finish able to serve oily skin, mature skin and clients who want a softer or bolder finish, rather than turning bookings away. Offering combo brows lets you stand out in a busy market and command premium pricing instead of competing on a one-look service.

Who This Combo Course Is For

This 4-day course welcomes all experience levels. It is built for beginners who want to enter permanent makeup the correct way with a complete, two-technique skill set, and for existing brow technicians or estheticians who already microblade and want to add ombre powder and combo brows to their menu. If you have wanted to train but kept putting it off, the private, small setting means the pace adapts to you, so you are never rushed and never lost in a crowded classroom.

Career and Earning Potential

Combo brow artists are among the better-paid specialists in the beauty industry, and this course is designed to launch a real career, not just hand you a certificate. You leave with the techniques, the professional kit and the business guidance to start taking paying clients, build a loyal following and work on your own schedule. Mastering two techniques in one course doubles the services you can offer from day one, which means more booking options, higher per-client value and the freedom to build the business you want.

What Makes Iconbrows Training Different

You train privately and in person on live models at our Humber Bay Shores studio in Etobicoke, guided one-on-one by award-winning trainer Tara with over 10 years of hands-on PMU experience. Instead of watching from the back of a large group, you get direct supervision on every model and on the exact skin types and client expectations you will meet across the GTA. The course adapts to your speed of learning, and the support continues after you leave, so you are ready to perform combo brows with confidence on real clients.

Student Testimonials

Iconbrows student Amber M.

Amber M.

I never imagined that as a graduated dentist I would be interested in microblading, but after working for others and having trouble finding work that worked with my family and schedule, I decided to give it a try after seeing how flexible and profitable it could be. I researched a lot of places online, but most were only offering online courses. I didn't know any better and decided to pay for one, but felt like I didn't learn much and didn't feel confident in doing the service on clients. I was recommended Iconbrows by a friend and I loved the course with Tara from the very start. Not only did Tara help me to feel more confident, focused and content with my work, but she also is one of those few people who you just know will keep you motivated and help you out because she's been in the same place as you and wants you to succeed. Thank you Tara!

Iconbrows student Katie S.

Tara is one of the best teachers I've worked with! Her teaching style is very structured and hands-on but she is also very adaptable and effective in making sure you learn the technique the correct way. I have done 3 courses with her now that I found very useful, full of things I never knew with special tips and industry secrets that I never found online watching videos and reading tutorials. I added the new services to my salon and my clients love the results and recommend me to their friends and family. Learning from Tara has been a real positive for my business and helped me earn more and grow. Tara is super patient and helpful but she also makes sure you are challenged when required. She is also willing to go an extra hour or two just to make sure you really learn the technique. 100% highly recommended!

Iconbrows student Vina T.

I moved to Toronto from overseas in 2022 and finding Tara has been a blessing. I had been working in restaurants and fast food places, it was very hard to do with my school but I decided to try the eyebrow beauty business after talking with my friend. My friend got her brows done by Iconbrows for years and recommended Tara. Tara was super nice and helpful, she taught me how to do eyebrows and eyelash services. Tara helped me learn the services and showed me how to do them correctly, she really took her time to help me understand even if I did not understand English very well. Thanks to Tara I now have my own business and make more money than working in restaurants. I help my clients feel beautiful and it makes me very happy to see them happy. Thank you Tara!

changed careers at 38 and no regrets

I spent years thinking it was too late to switch careers. finally took the leap, found iconbrows, did the full microblading and shading course and honestly it felt like something clicked. Tara is so encouraging and skilled. the techniques she shares come from real experience not just a textbook. i now have a small clientele and i am building something that feels like mine. thank youuuu Tara 🥰

small class made all the difference

The small class size is what sold me honestly and it lived up to it. You get so much more direct attention than in a big group course. I felt like i was getting private instruction half the time.

booked clients within 3 weeks of finishing

I signed up mostly on a whim after seeing the studio on instagram and it turned out to be one of the better decisions ive made career wise. the class is small so you actually get real feedback, not just watching someone demo from across the room. Tara is the kind of teacher who notices the small stuff and tells you exactly how to fix it without making you feel bad. the live model practice was where everything clicked for me. i was doing brows for paying clients less than a month after finishing.

starting my business because of this course

I moved to Toronto from Mississauga about a year ago and wanted to start something of my own. did the fusion brows training and now i have an actual client list growing. Tara taught me not just the technique but how to think about the whole service, the consultation, the shape mapping, all of it. so grateful 💕
