In this episode of the Tatter-a-fact PMU Podcast, Teryn Darling sits down with award-winning PMU artist and educator Brittany Wallins to talk about the controversy surrounding microblading in today’s permanent makeup industry.

They discuss how misinformation spreads online, why some techniques get unfairly criticized, and why education, skin analysis, and ethical decision-making matter far more than choosing one technique over another.

Topics include microblading, nano brows, powder brows, PMU training, pigment science, and how artists can stay adaptable as the industry evolves.

Whether you're a new PMU artist or a seasoned professional, this episode offers valuable insight into technique selection, industry trends, and the importance of staying open-minded in permanent makeup.
