From Alex

Taught by an artist

Black and white portrait of Alex Greasby gazing to one side, with arches behind her

With a background in Fine Art and education, I quite literally moved from paintbrushes on canvas to precision tools on skin, bringing with me an artist's eye, an understanding of structure and an obsession with detail.

Art taught me composition. Education taught me how to teach. The beauty industry gave me the platform to merge both.

I've worked in the industry for over nine years, five of them in education. I don't believe in rigid formulas or one-size-fits-all techniques. One shape, one technique and one style don't fit everyone: clients are canvases, not templates.

I don't just teach you how to perform a treatment. I teach you how to think: how to assess, how to adapt and how to refine, so you create work that heals beautifully and stands the test of time. And you're not left on your own once the day is over.

Good to know

The training questions Alex is asked most. If yours isn't here, just ask.

Ask a question
Do I need any experience?

Not for one-to-one or group training, which start from the basics. The online brow definition course needs no formal qualifications, and for online lamination Alex recommends a Level 2 beauty therapy qualification or equivalent experience.

Masterclasses are for qualified artists. The SPMU masterclasses need at least 6 months' experience as a qualified permanent makeup artist.

Will I be able to get insurance?

Yes. The in-person courses are fully accredited and you receive a certificate when you complete them, which is what insurers ask for.

Online, choose one of the CPD-accredited options. The manual-only option is a refresher for artists who already offer the treatment: it has no certificate and isn't suitable for insurance.

One-to-one or group: which suits me?

One-to-one is for anyone who wants Alex's full attention, and suits complete beginners or anyone who finds a group a little overwhelming. You lead the timings of the day and move on when you're ready.

Group training is up to four students with Alex and another qualified brow technician. It's a fuller, faster day with room to bounce off each other, and suits people who learn well in a group or are already qualified in similar treatments.

What if online learning isn't enough for me?

Some people just learn better in person. If you've taken a CPD-accredited online course and don't feel confident yet, let Alex know and what you paid comes off an in-person course.

When do courses run?

One-to-one courses are booked on a day that suits you, midweek or at the weekend, depending on Alex's diary. Online courses start whenever you like.

Can I spread the cost?

Yes, financing is available on in-person courses and masterclasses. Ask Alex about the options when you enquire.

Where does training take place?

At The Brow Girl's studio at Waterloo Farm Wellness, between Arlesey and Stotfold. There's free parking at the venue, and the train station is a short walk away.
