Read MoreI returned to Signature Academy yesterday for my first mentor day since completing my 4 day beginners MicroBlading course in July. The support I have received has been amazing so far and my mentor day has helped me so much to keep on track with the training. It has given me a chance to speak with Tracy about challenges I have come across so far and to answer any questions I have, it has been really beneficial. Thanks Tracy � x

I have recently completed a microblading course with signature academy and I can't tell you how pleased I am to have trained with them. The training was unbelievably good and as there was only me and one other the learning was so foucused and in depth. We were supported and encouraged throughout and since the training has finished we have been so well supported with our case studies. We constantly get feedback and support with every aspect of microblading which is invaluable because the first part on your own can be quite scary. I can't recommend training with Signature academy more....you get first class training, a brilliant started pack and aftercare and support I don't believe you would get with many other training academy's. Thank you so much Signature academy for my training and for also supporting me through my journey!I first met Tracy at a taster session, Tracy made me feel at ease and I went on to complete my VTCT level 4 training in micropigmentation. Tracy is an amazing trainer and I am very grateful for the support Tracy has given me, before, during and after training. Tracy really does go above and beyond. Thank you so much xx
Read MoreExcellent training academy and trainer. I have done the foundation semi permanent make up course ( lips, eyes and brows) and can highly recommend. I met Tracy at a professional industry show after researching SPMU training and despite other trainers/providers being available in my local area I decided to go with her as she was able to offer 1:1 and small group training. Her attention to detail and extremely high standards is reflected in her quality of training and her 25 years industry experience means that she is able to bring to the table and share so much more practical experience. Thank you Tracy you are an amazing trainer and I am really grateful for the opportunity to train with one of the best x
Read MoreI trained at Signature Academy on the basic microblading course. Initially four days but also includes lots of mentoring days which other courses don't include. Tracy Fensome is a fantastic trainer and the after support is amazing, highly recommended!! I'm so happy I attended and now fully qualified �
Read MoreI’ve recently trained with Tracy and I cannot recommend her enough. She has been so supportive from the moment I contacted her. She’s always on the end of the phone if I need support or help. The training was thorough, but at the same time very enjoyable. Tracy took her time and it wasn’t rushed at all, plus she really made me feel at ease. Really great models were provided, which really helped me and I have walked away feeling very confident and excited about the future. I have trained with other companies and have been very disappointed so I’m extremely happy I’ve found signature. I will certainly be back to train in other areas. Thanks again Tracy and the team for all of your help and support 😉

I can't thank Tracy enough for helping me with the transition from teacher to microblading technician I absolutely love what I do �I have recently completed the VTCT level 4 Micropigmentation course with Signature Academy and I could not be happier and more excited to start my new career in permanent makeup.
