Program details
What to know before you apply.
These answers explain the training format. Individual pathway details are reviewed directly with qualified applicants.
Do I need prior beauty or tattoo experience?
Not always. Applicants are considered individually. Your experience, goals, availability, and readiness for hands-on training are discussed during the application review.
How does Connecticut's 2,000-hour requirement apply?
Connecticut DPH requires qualifying applicants to document 2,000 hours of practical training under the supervision of a Connecticut licensed tattoo technician, unless another listed pathway applies. Nahid will discuss supervision and documentation with serious applicants, but licensing decisions are made by Connecticut DPH.
How long does the program take?
The schedule depends on the specialty, your starting experience, model availability, and the supervised hours required for your intended licensing path.
Is training online or in person?
Core instruction and supervised practical work are held in person at Shihan Beauty Clinic in Avon, Connecticut.
Will I work with real clients?
Hands-on progression may include supervised model work after foundational skills and safety standards are demonstrated. Model timing is determined by readiness and availability.
What happens after I apply?
Shihan reviews your application, typically responds within two business days, and may invite you to an in-person conversation at the Avon studio. Program scope, schedule, supplies, documentation, and enrollment details are reviewed before you commit.
