Eyelash extensions are one of the more precise, detail-heavy skills in beauty work — good isolation technique and steady hands matter as much as product knowledge. This course covers classic, volume and hybrid lash application from the basics of hygiene and consultation through to full hands-on practice, so you leave able to apply a clean, comfortable set rather than just knowing the theory behind one.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between classic, volume and hybrid lashes?
Classic lashes attach one extension to one natural lash for a more subtle look. Volume uses multiple thinner extensions per lash for a fuller effect, and hybrid combines both techniques. The course covers all three.
Is patch testing covered in the course?
Yes. Client consultation and patch testing for adhesive sensitivity are covered as part of the health and safety module, before any application training.
Do I get to practise on real clients during the course?
Practical workshops include hands-on application practice on models or clients so you build real experience, not just technique on a mannequin.
