Premier Pigments was founded by president and CEO, Sandi Hammons. Since its inception in the late 1980s, over 15,000 technicians have traveled from all over the world to attend training classes at the headquarters of Premier Pigments near Dallas, Texas. The overwhelming majority of those surveyed reported that they had made the decision to train at the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics(AIIC) based on Premier’s preeminent reputation for high-quality pigments. Most of them were referred from other practicing technicians who sang the praises of Premier’s permanent cosmetics. “I have tried everything on the market,” one technician wrote, “and nothing – I mean nothing – works like your colors. Premier Pigments changed my procedures, and that changed my life!”
