Combat common struggles with Lip Tattooing

Where is the PMU industry actually heading?In this episode we dive into the future of the industry and some of the big questions being discussed right now.We talk about Level 4 qualifications, training standards, apprenticeships, and whether the way artists are currently trained is really setting them up for long-term success.Should training be longer?Is there a better route into the industry?And what changes might we see in the next few years?As always, this is an honest conversation about the direction PMU could be heading and what that might mean for artists entering the industry.Two artists. Two mics. Too honest.

It’s one of the biggest things holding artists back in this industry - and hardly anyone talks about it honestly.In this episode, we’re discussing imposter syndrome: the self-doubt, the comparison trap, and that constant feeling of “am I actually good enough?”We share our own experiences, why so many artists struggle with it, and how it can quietly stop people from reaching their full potential.If you’ve ever questioned yourself or your work, this episode is for you.

It’s the question everyone seems to be asking right now… is the PMU industry dying?In this first episode of PMU: Off the Record, Layla and Lucy dive straight into one of the hottest topics in the industry. With more artists than ever entering the space, social media full of “overnight success” stories, and people questioning whether the industry is oversaturated… what’s actually going on?Our take? The industry isn’t dying - lazy business is.We’re talking about the shift happening right now, why the artists who put in the work will always survive, and why “I don’t have time” just doesn’t cut it if you want to build a real business in 2026.No fluff. No sugar-coating. Just honest conversation about what it actually takes to make it in PMU today.
