About This Course

This is a 100% offline, in-studio training programme at Glamm by Swati Academy, Dehradun. Every session is hands-on — you practice on live models under direct supervision, not just mannequins or theory books.

Batches are intentionally small (max 8 students) so every student gets personal attention. You graduate with a professional portfolio, an industry-recognised certificate, and real-world confidence to take clients from day one.

100% Hands-On

Practice on live models every single session — real skin, real challenges, real learning.

Small Batches Only

Max 8 students per batch. Personal attention every session — not a crowded classroom.
