How Can I Learn to Pierce Online?
Rehearse marking, positioning and controlled handling on silicone models. Submit the process and finished-result photographs requested by the assignment, then review your tutor feedback before the next attempt. Keep model-practice supplies separate from client supplies, and arrange appropriate supervised training before working on people.
Preview a jewelry-label study exercise
Choose a jewelry product listing and record these details on paper:
- Material: what material and standard are documented? Distinguish that information from a broad marketing label.
- Size: identify the gauge, wearable length or inner diameter, and the units used.
- Connection: what end connection or closure is specified? Is the listing for a complete piece or one component?
Leave unknown fields blank and turn each into a question for the supplier or your tutor. This course-style exercise develops documentation skills; it does not establish that a piece is suitable for a particular person.

Course refunds
You may request a course refund within 30 days of purchase. If you have done more than one lesson, you are not eligible for a refund under this policy. Logging in, accessing the course, or doing only one lesson does not by itself make you ineligible. This policy does not affect your applicable statutory rights.
Pay As You Go
Pay As You Go is flexible: pay for each next part only when you are ready. There is no obligation to purchase subsequent parts, and choosing Part 1 does not commit you to later payments. Part 1 is not the full course and does not by itself qualify you for the full-course certificate.

Skinart does not supply equipment in this region. Please arrange the equipment required for your chosen course separately.
