Today we’d like to introduce you to Rita Romo.
Rita has a lifetime of experience in the beauty industry as a licensed cosmetologist and permanent makeup artist. In 2012, Rita gained a bachelor’s degree of architecture in KAUNAS UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY. For the next two years, she continued her Master’s degree while working as a beautician and permanent makeup artist. Even though these two professions seem to be polar opposites, they work well together as they are both artistic professions, involving measuring, artistic and precise design. Here art is important as every situation of treatment can be very different or even complicated. Being a natural born instructor, she dedicated herself to permanent cosmetics in 2012, and began working closely with many beauticians in Kaunas, Lithuania. In 2014, she established the Baltic Brows® academy where she began teaching the art of permanent cosmetics. Rita is a leader in the industry and offers the latest techniques in permanent makeup to her students around the world. Moreover, Rita specializes in paramedical treatments with a special emphasis in breast repigmentation and scalp Trico pigmentation.
Rita – tell us more, set up the rest of the story for us.
Baltic Brows® is a professional permanent makeup academy based in Lithuania, Europe. We also established Baltic Brows® USA which is our sister company in Atlanta, GA, USA. Because of the increased popularity of permanent makeup, we are training and doing treatments worldwide. Baltic Brows has already trained students in the following countries – Estonia, United Kingdom, Finland, Norway, all over USA, Canada, Mexico, Israel, Brazil a n d Puerto Rico. Each class consists of 5-15 students. Each student is required to finish an online preparation course before they attend the 3-4 days of hands on training in class. After the class, there is continued support available to the students so that they can start to work as permanent makeup artists. We also offer training in smaller, semi private groups. Our academy also offers different permanent makeup master classes namely Ombre brows, eyeliner, lash enhancement, eyeshadow, 3D lips, microblading and shading combinations.
In 2012 I acquired a Master’s degree of architecture in Kaunas University of Technology. For two years, I had been working as an architect and designing exterior and interiors. Talent, challenging study and hard work nurtured the artistic soul but over time I realized that in Lithuanian economic situation, artistry falls into second place. This facilitated my move into the beauty field where the artistry and aesthetic sense are the very important. Today I specialize in permanent makeup and I am very happy to see the customers’ smile.
Great, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
The beginning in permanent makeup field was really difficult as I came from engineer field which is completely different to permanent makeup field. Of course, architecture helped a lot with everything what was associated with an artistry but not with a competition in beauty world, working with clients, communicating with them, legislation.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Baltic Brows – what should we know?
