10:00 am: introduction to the theory. 5:00 pm: certificate in hand. In between lies an eyebrow course in Munich that takes exactly one day — and still packs in more substance than the short timeframe suggests. Anyone considering whether 249€ for a one-day training is worth it is usually asking two questions at once: Is one day really enough — and when does the money pay for itself? This article answers both, based on the actual course schedule.
The market for brow styling in Munich is growing noticeably faster than the supply of instructors who teach in Ukrainian or Russian. That’s exactly where the course at MONLIS Schule comes in. What you’ll learn in this one day, how the schedule actually looks, and what the 249€ ultimately means — more on that below.

Who Is the Eyebrow Course in Munich For?
The eyebrow course in Munich is designed for complete beginners as well as for estheticians who want to add brow styling to their portfolio — no prior experience is required according to the course description.
This is the worry that holds most prospective participants back: “What if I’ve never held a pair of tweezers before?” The course is designed precisely for that case. The group on a course day is typically mixed — some come straight from another profession, such as retail or care work, others already have a cosmetics qualification and want an additional specialization. Both groups follow the same schedule; only the pace of the independent work in the afternoon differs.
More often than you’d think, it’s the complete beginners who end the day with the steadier hand — simply because they approach the technique without old habits. Experienced estheticians, on the other hand, often bring ingrained movements from other correction methods and have to unlearn them before the new system takes hold. Both starting points are explicitly accounted for on this course day.
The Course Schedule – Step by Step
The Eyebrow Shaping course (Augenbrauenkaschierung) runs for one day, from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, and consists of 90% hands-on practice on a model, not a practice head. Here’s the schedule at a glance:
- 10:00–11:00 am: Theory – brow architecture, materials, workspace organization, and instrument sterilization
- from 11:00 am, approx. 2 hours: first practical session on a real model with color, guided by the instructor
- short coffee break
- until approx. 3:00 pm: practice with henna, also guided
- 3:00 pm to approx. 4:00 pm: independent work on a model – free choice of color and technique
- 5:00 pm: open Q&A session and certificate handover
This is the point where many participants notice that the morning’s theory suddenly makes sense. If you’re wondering whether the afternoon really involves real clients rather than just a practice head — the answer is yes, for the whole afternoon.
What Will You Actually Learn? Techniques in Detail
At the center is measuring and shaping the brow using three reference lines – starting point, highest point (apex), and end point – which shift depending on face shape.
This measuring technique is the basis for every later correction, whether with wax, tweezers, or color — getting it right once changes the way you look at every face: afterward, you almost automatically recognize where a brow should begin and end. That eye, however, only develops with practice, not on the first model. How exactly this measurement works step by step is explained in more detail in the article How to Measure Eyebrows Correctly.
Beyond measuring, the program covers color theory, choosing the right shade for different skin and hair types, and correction with wax and tweezers. Everything you practice on this day, you practice twice on a real model – once guided, once alone. Details on the complete Eyebrow Shaping Course are available in the official course description.
Certificate: What It Gets You
After completing the course you receive a certificate from MONLIS Schule – a cosmetics school certificate confirming that you’ve mastered the basics of brow architecture and tinting.
A certificate alone doesn’t fill a calendar. What actually matters afterward is the chance to get an internship placement at MONLIS right after the course. Many newcomers underestimate this step, even though it makes the transition from practicing on an unfamiliar model to real clients much easier. What a start in the beauty industry after certification can generally look like is described in more detail in the article What Happens After the Certificate from MONLIS Schule (the article is written generally about a beauty career and isn’t specific to brow styling).
Costs at a Glance: What’s the Market Rate?
Similar one-day eyebrow courses in Germany generally range in price from about 200€ to 500€, depending on scope, materials, and certification – this range is typical for eyebrow training costs on the German market.
The 249€ for the Eyebrow Shaping course sits at the lower-to-middle end of that range – not the cheapest offer on the market, but no outlier at the top either. Shorter formats focused on just one technique tend to sit at the lower end of this range, while more extensive multi-technique packages with more materials tend to sit at the higher end.
On the question of payback, only one thing can honestly be said: a course is an investment in a skill – it doesn’t guarantee income. How quickly the 249€ pays for itself depends on factors that vary from studio to studio and region to region – such as your own pricing model, how booked you are, and whether the service is offered independently or in a salon. Realistically, a course can pay for itself after the first few paid appointments, once material costs and the course fee are covered – but no blanket number of clients can honestly be derived from that, and we don’t promise one.
Eyebrow Lamination as a Next Step
If you want to go deeper after Eyebrow Shaping, the Eyebrow Lamination course for 349€ is an addition – a kind of Browlifting Ausbildung with the same structure, one day (10:00 am–5:00 pm), but focused on lamination instead of wax and color. For getting started, the Eyebrow Shaping course is enough – lamination is more of a second step, once the first specialization is already up and running.
Language as an Advantage
The course is offered in Ukrainian, Russian, German, and English – a combination that only a few of the established cosmetics schools in Munich currently offer in this form.
For many participants, this is the real door-opener, not a side note. Learning complex technical language – color nuances, skin types, sterilization protocols – in your own native language makes a noticeable difference: you understand faster and feel more confident tackling the independent work in the afternoon. In the end, that’s exactly what separates a day where you just go along with it from a day where something actually sticks.
After the Course: Your Next Steps
After the certificate, two paths are open: an internship placement at MONLIS, or a direct start at an existing studio or self-employment.
Which path fits depends on your own need for security. If you don’t yet feel confident working alone on unfamiliar clients after one day of training, the internship placement is the better fit – that’s where you build the routine that the course itself, due to time constraints, can only introduce. Others already feel confident enough after the two models on the course day and start directly at a studio or with their own appointments, whether mobile or from home. Both paths aren’t mutually exclusive – switching is possible at any time.
The timing for this step is generally favorable: according to the IKW industry report 2025, revenue in the German beauty and household-care sector – meaning manufacturers and trade in cosmetics and care products – grew by 2.9 percent in 2025 to 35.6 billion euros, with around 178,000 employees in this industry. Important context: these figures relate to the production and trade of cosmetic products, not directly to the service industry of beauty studios and brow artists. They do show, however, that the beauty sector overall is a growing market. A growing market is not a job guarantee, though — it simply explains why there’s demand for additional skilled workers right now.
One day, seven hours, a certificate by the afternoon: the eyebrow course in Munich packs theory and practice so tightly that newcomers work independently for the first time on the very same day. The 249€ sits in the middle of the market; whether it pays off afterward depends on your own bookings, not a promise from the school. And the real difference compared to most alternatives in Munich lies less in the price than in the language the course is taught in.
