The PMU Circle review

The PMU Circle publishes 539 course modules on Skool. It charges $12 a month.

A review on the numbers, not an opinion: nobody here has joined The PMU Circle, and nothing below is a verdict.

The PMU Circle is a UK education membership for permanent makeup (PMU) artists, founded by Layla Hinchen.[1][2] Its Skool community, created in April 2026, is aimed at artists who are already qualified and want support, business growth and advanced training.[3] It calls itself the UK's first hybrid membership for PMU artists, combining on-demand online education with in-person workshops around the country.[2] Hinchen, a permanent makeup artist and educator, describes 14+ years of experience and also created The PMU Professional Trust.[3]

About The PMU Circle

Classes cover the fundamentals, theory and pigmentology, and every area of PMU: brows, lips, liner, SMP and medical work.[3] Members also get business and social media training, downloads and templates, live training, and discounts on supplies and events.[3] Hands-on training events across the UK are open to members only.[2] The group's YouTube channel offers free PMU classes and resources, and describes an approach of telling artists straight why something is not working.[1]

As of September 2026, The PMU Circle's website, pmucircle.com, listed three plans: a community tier with free classes and resources at £5 a month, a membership with beginner-friendly classes at £26 a month, and a VIP membership adding advanced classes, VIP WhatsApp support and 121 guidance at £37 a month.[2] Members can cancel at any time, and a subscription stays active until the renewal date.[2]
