How to Become AAM Certified?
STEP 1:
Complete a 100-HourFundamental Course
Take an AAM-approved training program from a Board Certified AAM Trainer. This course includes both online theory and in-person hands-on training, covering brows, eyeliner, and lips.
STEP 2:
Complete 15 Supervised Procedures
(Apprenticeship)
You must perform a total of 15 procedures on live models:
- 5 Eyebrows
- 5 Eyeliners
- 5 Lips
If you enroll in our Fundamentals PMU Training, 6 procedures are already included, so you’ll only need 9 additional procedures to complete your apprenticeship. These can be scheduled at your convenience and paid for individually — no need to pay for all 9 upfront.
STEP 3:
Pass the AAM Board Certification Exam
Once your training and apprenticeship are complete, you’ll take your board exam directly through the AAM.
