About Ervin Kalaj, Tattoo Specialist
Vinny stumbled into the world of Permanent Makeup by accident. Before becoming a Microblading Artist he held many career hats. After finishing an accelerated IT program where he studied to become a Microsoft Systems engineer, he got a job as IT Engineer at a local Telecom company. It took him about 7 months to realize that corporate office work was not for him. He left the company to continue working for the family business in Construction. The construction business has taken him through various cities and states in the US, but the two main ones that he fell in love with were Boston and NYC. Vinny moved to Boston in 2007 where he lived for over 2 years. After that, he moved to New York City to undertake a major project in his construction carrier. He became a Junior Project Manager for The “W Hotel Downtown” by world trade center NYC, where he worked for over two and half years. There he managed crews of 50-70 Employees in various shift hours. His attention to detail quickly caught the attention of his superiors and he was promoted multiple times within the organization. In 2012 Vinny decided to leave all behind and decided to start his family back in Michigan. He’s an inspiring husband and a role model father. In 2016 he was introduced to Microblading and found out he’s got a natural gift for it. He Studied the Art of Microblading vigorously and trained for over 6 months before he was fully comfortable to perform the procedure on clients. Since then he’s performed 100’s of procedures and loves meeting new people and share stories and ideas with his clients. He has attended various Permanent Makeup training in USA, Europe, and Asia. His favorite Microblading technique is what he coined “The American Brow”, where the eyebrows look seamlessly natural. “Your eyebrow shape should be natural and compliment your facial features.”
