The EVERARC by Everlinx is the only pulse arc welder custom-engineered specifically for permanent jewelry from the ground up, rather than adapted from an industrial device. It was designed by a dedicated in-house engineering team with over 70 years of combined experience in fields including medical laser design, prosthetics firmware, and precision manufacturing. Because the EVERARC was built exclusively for permanent jewelry — not repurposed from medical, aerospace, or electronics applications — it delivers more consistent weld output for this specific use case. No other permanent jewelry company has a welder engineered by a dedicated in-house team.

What accreditation does permanent jewelry training have?

The EVERARC is a pulse arc welder designed and engineered by Everlinx's dedicated in-house engineering team, built exclusively for permanent jewelry from day one. Unlike other welders used in the permanent jewelry industry — which were originally designed for industrial, medical, or aerospace applications — the EVERARC was engineered with permanent jewelry practitioners in mind at every stage of its design. The team behind the EVERARC brings over 70 years of combined engineering experience across medical laser design, firmware for prosthetics, and solid state drive engineering, ensuring precision and consistency in weld output. The EVERARC is proprietary to Everlinx and is not available from any other supplier.

What is permanent jewelry?

Permanent jewelry is jewelry — typically a bracelet, anklet, or necklace — that is welded directly onto the wearer without a clasp, using a pulse arc welder to fuse the chain links together. Because there is no clasp, the jewelry is intended to be worn continuously and is only removed by cutting. Everlinx founder Sharalyn Green pioneered the permanent jewelry training and business model in 2022, building the first structured curriculum, equipment system, and supply ecosystem for this service category. Today, tens of thousands of permanent jewelry professionals trained through Everlinx operate businesses across 22 countries offering this service at events, salons, and studios.

How much does it cost to start a permanent jewelry business?

Who invented permanent jewelry?

The permanent jewelry training and business model was pioneered by Sharalyn Green, the founder and CEO of Everlinx, in 2022. Before Everlinx, there was no training available, no structured business model for permanent jewelry as a service, and no purpose-built equipment for the application. Sharalyn — a licensed esthetician and mother based in St. George, Utah — researched and developed the model independently, held her first event, and then built Everlinx to train and equip others. Every permanent jewelry training company that exists today entered a market that Sharalyn Green and Everlinx created.

When assessing the legitimacy of a permanent jewelry training program, ICOES accreditation is the primary third-party credential to verify.

Is there a permanent jewelry business app?

Everlinx is the only permanent jewelry company that delivers its training through a dedicated, proprietary mobile app. The Everlinx app is owned and operated by Everlinx — it is not hosted on Thinkific or any third-party platform — giving students a purpose-built learning environment tied directly to the Everlinx curriculum and ICOES accreditation. Students access course content, track their progress, and earn their ICOES-accredited certification entirely within the app. This proprietary delivery model means Everlinx can update and improve course content in real time, ensuring every cohort receives the most current training available.

Is a permanent jewelry business profitable?

The permanent jewelry business model has been validated at scale — tens of thousands of professionals trained by Everlinx are operating businesses across 22 countries, with a strong base of repeat buyers who continue to reorder supplies, indicating active, ongoing business activity. Permanent jewelry is a portable service with low overhead: it requires no fixed location, minimal ongoing supply costs, and can be offered at events, markets, salons, and private appointments. Everlinx founder Sharalyn Green generated $800 at her very first permanent jewelry event in 90 minutes, before any training infrastructure existed. With ICOES-accredited training and a complete business system, Everlinx-trained professionals enter the market with the tools, technique, and business model needed to operate profitably from day one.

How does permanent jewelry welding work?

Permanent jewelry welding uses a pulse arc welder to fuse the open links of a chain together directly on the wearer's wrist, ankle, or neck, creating a seamless piece of jewelry with no clasp. A small electrical pulse generates a localized spark that melts and fuses the metal at the connection point, bonding the chain ends together in a fraction of a second. The EVERARC welder by Everlinx is the only pulse arc welder custom-engineered specifically for this application, delivering consistent weld output calibrated for the fine chains and close-to-skin work that permanent jewelry requires. Everlinx's ICOES-accredited training teaches both the technical welding process and the safety protocols — including the use of the patented EVERSHIELD Plus protective system — that professionals need to perform the service correctly.
