2-Day Fine Line Course in Glasgow for experienced individuals
If you already work in aesthetics or beauty (semi-permanent make-up, microblading, needling or advanced skincare) you know skin, hygiene and steady hands. This two-day intensive builds on that to add fine-line tattooing to your offer. We move fast through machine work and single-needle technique so you leave ready to practise.

I started the 10-day course never having held a machine and tattooed a live model by the end. The small group meant the tutor actually watched every line I did.

The 4-day fine line course was exactly what I wanted. I came out able to hold a clean single-needle line and I've been building a fine-line portfolio since.
Cian D.4-Day Fine Line Course -
★★★★★
I run a microblading studio and the 2-day course let me add fine-line tattoos to my services in a weekend. It assumed I already knew skin and hygiene, which saved so much time.
Niamh R.2-Day Fine Line Course -
★★★★★
Genuinely the most professional training I looked at in Glasgow. Real bench time, real feedback, and the hygiene side was taken seriously from day one. Worth every penny.
Seán O'B.10-Day Beginner Tattoo Course -
★★★★★
Travelled in from Brighton for the beginner diploma and it was completely worth the trip. Small class, patient tutors, and I left with a portfolio I could actually show studios.

★★★★★
I'd done an online course before and learned almost nothing. This was the opposite. Hands on machines from the first morning, corrected in real time. I finally feel ready to guest.
Jack F.4-Day Fine Line Course -
★★★★★
The hygiene and blood-borne pathogen side was covered properly, which is exactly what studios asked me about at interview. I walked in with a certificate and a portfolio and got the spot.
Orla C.10-Day Beginner Tattoo Course -
★★★★★
The small group meant I never felt lost or rushed. The tutors are working artists so the feedback is honest and current, not something read off a slide. Best decision I've made for my career.
Darragh L.10-Day Beginner Tattoo Course -
★★★★★
As an SPMU artist the 2-day course was perfect. Focused, no filler, and it respected what I already knew. I was offering fine-line tattoos to my clients the following week.
