Not Beginner Training
You must already have foundational piercing education or experience.
If you are brand new to piercing, this is not the right starting point.
Why Most Piercers Stay Stuck
Most piercers struggle because they underprice their services, lack structured business systems, rely on random bookings, feel technically capable but not confident, and don’t know how to scale beyond single appointments.
You don’t need more random information. You need mentorship, structure, and elevated standards.
What Makes PLU Different
PLU is not a classroom. It is a working luxury studio environment. This is applied training, not theory.
- How high-end studios actually operate
- How ear designers think visually
- How to package premium services
- How to attract higher-value clients
- How to deliver unforgettable client experiences

ROI + PROOF
The Reality of Building a Premium Studio
It took me two years to refine this model: testing pricing, adjusting jewelry strategy, learning how to position design work as premium, and building consistent revenue without burnout. You don’t need to take two years. That’s the difference.
Grounded numbers. No “viral month” assumptions. Just the model.
Scenario 1
Monthly revenue
≈ $6,600
$1,650 weekly × 4
Annual revenue
≈ $79,200
$6,600 × 12
Service time
~ 6 hrs / week
3 appointments × 2 hrs
Effective hourly
≈ $275 / hr
$6,600 ÷ ~24 hrs / month
Weekly revenue
3 × $550 = $1,650
Monthly revenue (conservative)
$1,650 × 4 = $6,600
Annual revenue
$6,600 × 12 = $79,200
Scenario 2
Monthly revenue
≈ $11,000
$2,750 weekly × 4
Annual revenue
≈ $132,000
$11,000 × 12
Service time
~ 10 hrs / week
5 appointments × 2 hrs
Effective hourly
≈ $275 / hr
$11,000 ÷ ~40 hrs / month
Weekly revenue
5 × $550 = $2,750
Monthly revenue (conservative)
$2,750 × 4 = $11,000
Annual revenue
$11,000 × 12 = $132,000
At an average of $550 per client, tuition is covered in roughly 9 clients. My job inside this program is not to give you random tips — it’s to hand you the blueprint that took me two years to build so you can compress the timeline.
