LAB FEE ($300.00 non-refundable)
The Lab fee covers the cost of all of the pre-made prosthetics you will be using in class - Pros-Aide transfers, gelatin appliances, foam latex prosthetics and silicone gel-filled prosthetics.
The lab fee is optional if you bring your own prosthetics however (contact [email protected] for more details).
LMA will be providing all lab material needed in the classroom (covered by the lab fee), but you will be responsible for putting together your makeup kit. We will email you a materials list for items needed outside of the lab materials. Students receive a professional discount at Frends Beauty on the items that they might need.
MODELS
Models will be required every day for application. You are welcome to bring your own models, but if you need assistance with finding an actor model, let us know and we will schedule an actor for you. The actors will require a modeling fee day rate ($100 a day that students pay directly to them), so please keep that in mind.
PARKING
Parking is limited in the area. It is more of a suburban environment, on Laurel Canyon Blvd. in Valley Village.
We do recommend Uber/Lyft or being dropped off if you can arrange it. Frends Beauty is a block away from the Orange Line Laurel Canyon stop, so public transportation is also a wonderful option.
HOUSING
LMA does not have any housing services set up yet, but Valley Village is a safe area in a wonderful part of the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles. It’s next to Toluca Lake, Burbank and Studio City. If you have any questions regarding housing or the area, please let us know and we’ll be happy to advise.
HEALTH
Staff, instructors and models are fully vaccinated. The classroom will be setup with current industry standards in regards to hygiene and Covid protocols.
