I have my cosmetology license and they definitely didn’t teach us in depth about lashes. They only taught us clusters. Lol. Thankfully I didn’t go just to learn lashes. I thought I loved hair but didn’t turn out that way! Found my love for lashing and invested more in my education. Sucks though that states require that if you’re just looking to be a lash tech. They spend so much money on a license when they don’t even focus on lashes. Hopefully it changes soon!!!! Thank you for this very informative video!
Yes if they teach any form of lashing it always seems to be clusters!! lol
So agreed. I am from Ukraine living in California. In Ukraine we have great cosmetology schools which offer any beauty courses you want yet if you want to be a lash artist only certification you need is lash certification. I mean what you need to be an esthetician for 🤷♀️
Going to your state board website and looking at the different schools and their pricing can save you thousands! I was going to go to a big beauty school and pay $13000 but I found a close community college that offers the esthetician program for $3000. Look at all of your resources! I’m personally so happy I decided to get licensed because I have the option to offer other services learned in school or get other certifications on top of lashing. It all depends on your situation and goals. Wishing everyone success! ✨🥰
Omg 🙌🏽 Yes thank you! I totally agree with you!!! I am licensed and I am so happy I choose that route specially now with covid I did 1600 hours of endless sanitation and client protection that back then I use to think why??? Now I know why and I am so thankful I did 🙏🏼
Let’s not ding State board . State board is there for a reason.. And it’s called client protection first if you want to specialize in something else then that’s when you have to take the more advance courses. Best wishes and success to everyone 💕
I love this tip! Thank you for sharing ♥♥
@@LivBayLash You guys have to open up a school 💕
I am planning to go to esthetician school in California. Do you think there is no difference between schools like Aveda and community colleges ? I want to be able to work as an esthetician as well but mostly I want to concentrate on lash extensions and permanent make up.
@@yelenaburba7604 All beauty schools are completely different but I would definitely do your research and tour each one to see which one you feel most comfortable at!
I appreciate you bringing this up! I’m a licensed Cosmo in California, I went to Salon Success Academy and we NEVER learned anything about lashes. I worked at Amazing Lash Studio for 2 years and they didn’t teach me anything either! When I got on my own, I had to use UA-cam academy, models, and friends to learn how to lash properly. Thankful for this podcast!
I use to get my lashes done at amazing lash studio and some of the lash artist didn’t have good retention
I went to esthetician school only payed $800 community college finish in March 2020.
They payed for a training for lashes
However I took volume with livbay and they were worth every penny.
I just don’t like when people want to had out certificates and don’t mention you need a license .
And most girls didn’t want to do lashes after they saw how hard it is in school .
I’m glad you enjoyed our class ❤️ and that’s awesome your school payed for lash training!
Appreciate you guys so much!!❤️ my favs
Thanks boo♥♥
You can still.take the course as a advanced refresher course
Oh my goodness you came to Tampa in January. Wthhhhhhhhhh 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 I started esthetician school Jan 11th.
I’m sure we’ll be back or somewhere close by ❤️
Also I didn’t learn anything about lashes when I got my license. Have you guys ever heard of evit? That’s the technical school I went to in high school.
No I haven't heard of evit. 💗
HI GUYS WHAT ARE THE 5 STATES THAT REQUIRE NO LICENSE ?.....Thank you for all this informations
Hi hun, I’m not 100% sure I know Idaho is one for sure. You can look it up it should pop up ❤️
Alabama
Maryland doesn’t require anything.
@@Heyitskadayy thank you
I paid 25k to go to Paul Mitchell and learned practically NOTHING and they did not offer lashes. I hated doing hair and then discovered lash extensions so I can relate to having a license vs not having one. However that was my mistake 😟 I don’t hate on anyone
Hang in there and keep going! 🙏
You are absolutely correct..they don't teach u nothinh
Its awful!
Ohio requires either cos or esti license.
Yes same here ♥
empire did not teach lashes and barely makeup at all
Join our classes! 🥰😍
I got Lash Certified in April 2019! Just graduated Esthetician School this October 2020! wohoo! But 100% agree, lashing was not covered in my program. The program that includes lashing covered it for such a short amount of time! I agree lashing should have their own program!
100% ♥
Agree
Also agree but until the states have unified laws and regulations for esthetic practitioners and eyelash technicians there is no unified state board around the states
I’m a licensed esthetician in CA and my school didn’t even spend a day talking about lashes! I know so many girls that had to spend thousands just to legally do lashes here and go to school to learn everything BUT lashes 🙄
Yes most schools don't even talk about lashes let alone teach them. Its terrible for those only wanting to lash, we hope this changes in the future♥
I’m a licensed esthetician in PA and we’re the same. Lash extensions, microblading, spray tan, airbrush makeup and etc are considered as advanced courses that are additional for us.
The same in AZ too 😕
@@MissminhT Yes, it’s the same here in GA.
Same here in Texas
The quality of lash artist isn’t determined by certification or license. Hard work, tenacity and perseverance. Some of the best advice I have heard from Shauna and Mike is focus on you and your lash game and your biz will flourish. You can’t do that if you worried about if the next artist is licensed. 😍😍
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
thank goodness for the livbay course lol I learned NOTHING in esti school 🤣🤣
yesss girrrrrl
What did you learn for 600 hours than ? 😬
Up In the air it was 900 hours but all I got about lashes was a slide show for one day lol
@@rioknudsen8896 😂 yet they want you to get esthetician license to lash ...
@@rioknudsen8896 i did an esthi program back in 2014-2015 & all we learned when it came to lashes was the eyelash tabbing, tints and lifts😭😭
I got certified, I still cheaper and they actually teach you lashes and the anatomy of your lashes and eyes and you have to also get certified in infection prevention and control and I think I learned way more with the certification class than my friends did getting licensed
I here this alot too. Most people get a certification and then learn more styles on UA-cam and others..
what did you use to get certified?
I’m a licensed esthetician in PA and ended up taking a classic lash course certification for $600 and didn’t learn much about technique. So I applied at a lash studio in which they pay, train and certify you in almost every kind of lashes and provide you with clients. If people are okay with that, this wouldn’t be a bad idea to start out and gain experience in the lash biz.
Thats not a bad idea and there are a few salons who do that ♥
Wow I would love to find this in Georgia
Could you share where you got these courses? I’m also in PA and I’m considering becoming an esthetician to do lashes!
@@englishwithemi I did a my lash course that was through my school called Lash affair. They only taught classic lashes and it was a 2 day course. I wouldn't recommend it though :(
@@MissminhT Hi I am in PA as well and just starting this lash journey, do you mind if I ask what school did you go to or would recommend!!!!
School is worth it no matter what. I know they don’t go into depth about lashing, which sucks. but they teach you things that you wouldn’t be able to pick up on your own unless you hardcore researched it. Cleaning your tools PROPERLY is so important. Knowing how to even mix your barbicide is important, if you mess up the ratio then it’s not effective. You need to know when you need to sanitize & what to do if there’s an emergency like accidentally making your client bleed (blood exposure safety). getting your license is so worth it & will open many doors. You can charge more money & you can offer other services that’ll make you even more money. I chose a really small school that was around $7,000 for the esthetician program & I still take additional classes on top of it & certifications. If you’re not willing to invest in yourself, you won’t grow.
Yes we do agree on that topic, learning sanitation is very important!
Such a great point when Mike said sometimes it’s good to try out a lash class first before paying $$ for a whole license. It took me 2 years to be completely confident/know that I wanted to lash full time! I finally just enrolled for esthetics 😊
Yes 100% you can't judge or hate on someone not licensed because you don't know thier situation, thankfully im licensed in cali but I hope one day we can have a special license for just lashing so not everyone has to spend thousands of dollars to go to school just to do lashes
agreed ♥♥
so many people do not explain or educate on this, yes!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
They don't, and its so important to know!
by far one of my favorite for sure!! 👍🏼 thank you guys! 💓
Bruh if y'all open up that beauty school that shit would be so clutch.
Yall really inspire me!
Thank you for taking lash artistry to a new LEVEL!!!!
Lol thank you 🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️
So I paid for a course on lashing, and I love it I've learned so much. I eventually want to go to cosmo school so that I'm legal. Are you saying I'll pay them a lot of money to learn nothing on lashing 😩
It depends on your school you can definitely ask what they teach on lashing but most seem to not teach anything unfortunately or you have to pay for outside education on it
What state do you live at? In Texas you can get licensed as a eyelash extensions specialist you clock in 320hrs. That way you don’t have to go to cosmo or esthetician school.
@@bonitaaestheticsllc yeah I heard that aswell, but I'm also not sure if I can legally do lashes with just a eyelashes extension cerification
@@itsbrenda9944 No you can’t do lashes with just a certificate but the class I’m talking about is to get your license as a eyelash extensions specialist.
I'm enrolled in Aveda right now in Las Vegas! BUT I took 3 lash courses over the last 2 years to make sure I loved it before I paid for school and licensure! Don't knock anyone's hustle because you don't know their journey! Thank you guys for speaking about it!
You are so welcome! ❤️
Oh let me know if you like Aveda Las Vegas please. Thinking to go there too. Do they teach online now during the pandemic or is it on campus? Thank you 😊
@@yelenaburba7604 I’m loving it!! I really connect with their mission and natural product aspects. Earlier into covid they were online for part of the course and waiting for the governor to allow them to reopen to let those students finish with hands on. Right now they are talking about if we go into another lockdown we can do some stuff online but we’d have to wait to come back to finish. Most stuff we learn needs to be practiced. So it’s hard to do it all online
@@stephaniemaghinay6716 Thank you so much for the information Stephanie . I wish you success in your future career 😊
I couldn’t agree more with everything y’all touched in this video! I’m a licensed esthetician and have several friends who I’ve inspired to become lash artists & I couldn’t support them more!!!! I don’t regret going to esthetician school at all, I wanted to know more than just lash extensions but everybody is different. I refuse to judge somebody else trying to hustle!
This debate is always so interesting to me. In Maryland lashing isn’t regulated so anyone can do it. There should be a program specifically to become a licensed lash specialist/professional that doesn’t require you to be an Esthetician or cosmetologist! I would be so upset going to esthi school for them to not even go in depth about lash extensions.
Came looking for this comment. I just found a lash course for 50 bucks. To get certified. I'm in maryland.. I wanna do it lol
I'm in Texas and I'm certified but I'm on my way to getting my license. The argument here was how a EMT only needs 120 to 150 hours of training but to get a cosmetology license you have to complete 700 plus hours. Does not make sense but...
Yes! It’s crazy!
There’s lash classes in Texas that you need 320 hrs if lashing is the only service you want to do.
Hi im in texas too so what should i get first certified or licensed?
I love you guys!! I live in Wisconsin and here- it is not required to have a cosmetology or esthetician license. I took a one day certification course recently and I learned a lot. I just started watching your guys’ videos. You inspire me so much and give such helpful advice. You do have to be licensed to do lash lifts here though.
💜💜💜
Wow I came here for some info and this comment gave it to me ! LOL I live I. Wisconsin so whoaaaaaoooo! I’ll take my class now in peace 😜
What course did you take?
being a lash technician is my absolute dream! i started a course online and in the middle of it the discs in my neck herniated so until i was healed i was unable to complete the course and now i am 5 months pregnant wishing hoping and praying to fulfil my dream of being a lash tech all i need is to get my certificate i practice on my mannequin every chance i get and pray i get this opportunity 🤞🏼❤️ love this company so much
Hey I'm your friendly reminder to remind you to keep practicing 🙂 because practice makes perfect.. good luck
I'm from California and i truly hope this crazy requirements by state board to do lash extensions in a legitimate way change one day...I truly don't see the point of people having to spend thousands of dollars in cosmetology or Esthetician school when realistically they don't even teach anything on real lash extensions... 🤷🏻(at least not the beauty schools in my area)It makes no sense.. Anyway I do understand & feel for both sides on this topic...
Wish everyone sucess and good luck in their Lashing Journey💕
Thank You Mike & Shauna for this video!💗
We all hope it changes! ❤️
It’s about learning, it’s all about learning the basics…. Stop thinking you aren’t gonna have to learn yourself. If you don’t like it then don’t get into the industry
Being licensed is important. As a nurse, cosmetologist, and lash tech I fear for the clients who are in the hands of an unlicensed “certified” lash tech. Those who are licensed are educated on anatomy, skin, s/s of infection, proper sterilization, and general safety. Taking a quick lash course is not sufficient. People’s EYES and the safety of their eyes and vision should be taken very seriously. You cannot learn that in a lash course 😒 We take state tests to be licensed to PROVE that we hold the proper knowledge required to not harm another person while performing your profession. Not to mention, impersonating a state licensed employee is punishable by fines and jail time
I attended CILV here in Las Vegas. Grateful for my education but more learning has to be done. I’m so glad to have found you! I know the difference and when I went to school had no intention doing lashes but now that’s my desire. My goal turned into let me just get this license and then find a company to further my love for doing lashes now! You two are so funny! Love your passion and energy! If I don’t win the free class I pray to be able to afford it soon...
❤️❤️❤️
It's sad but its just the way it is. Just about every state has the licensing requirement to do lashes and treatments. I think they look at it as a way to make money but there is a safety component to it too. I was a makeup artist for 15 years, my state changed the licensing requirements and so I had a choice get my esti license or move on. So I paid the 5k, took the time and graduated and got my esti license. They mentioned lash extensions in school but did not teach them so I just paid another 650.00 to take a certification course in May with a licensed esti teacher who is an amazing lash artist and I am super excited! As my teachers have taught me the state board does not care about how many certifications you have, if you get caught or hurt someone you're getting trouble. Invest in the license and then you don't ever have to worry..because yes people will report you because they spent the money and put the hours in for that license.
Awesome content ❤ what states DO NOT require cosmetology or aesthetician license? I’m in Florida. Thank you 🙏🏼
I took a 2 day course (B.S course)...& I must say, I learned more from UA-cam than the actual person who has been lashing for 8yrs!!!...I've learned so many techniques!!!...
Yes! You have to research your classes for sure to make sure you’re learning everything possible!
I'm in Arkansas would love to get just certified BC I can't afford the classes n only want to do lashes but I think here you have to get a licensed
Maryland requires nothing! Works for me!
Nice!!♥
I went to esthetician school in Texas. All we learned when it came to lashes was the cluster lashes, lash lifts and tints. It's been 4 years and i haven't renewed my license but there is a lash speciality course in my area but im going to have to pay another 3k😬😬😬 . I've been thinking of self teaching myself and doing lashes on the side but I want to do it right to avoid legal issues :/
Please read this… I’ve been through it…..In the US you have to be licensed…… You need papers. Usually when you go to a class or school they’re there to teach BASICS. Stop thinking that you aren’t gonna have to teach yourself. If you don’t like it then don’t get into the beauty industry. I went to cosmetology school and paid $20,000.00 and we were told this is basically to teach us basics and to get out license. You have to take continued education every 2 years anyways. To keep your license
💖💖💖
Here in Texas its 325 hours to be legally licensed
Where??
Wait.. I was interested in taking your class! So I need to get my license first before I can take your class?
Can you please answer this question
It would be so nice if you taught the certification class in my school. Thank you so much for all your videos! You two are amazing!
You are so welcome!! Thanks for watching ♥
So glad I live in Canada! I have friends that went to cosmetology school paid 16k and were taught lashes in one day. Such a waste to have to take courses on top of schooling
Yes its totally unfair, we hope it changes in the future for future lash techs!
So for a lash artist should I go to school for a cosmetology license or a esthetician?
We learned nothing about extensions in Esthetics school, except what they are. I took a one day class that I didn’t learn hardly anything from, and built my skill and watched a ton of UA-cam after and recently finished a LivBay course. Our state requires licensing but not certification. What a journey it’s been
Keep on going love!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
In Texas you can go to school just for lashes and get licensed which is exactly what I’m going for …but can you still lash in different states with the license
Amazing! Some states still allow. Very few but you got lucky boo!
Great video 👏 I agree with you, Shauna. Lashes should have their own specialty. I’m Canadian, and it is different based on each province (most can do whatever they want 😬). In New Brunswick and Nova Scotia we have to be licensed Aestheticians. I think lashes should have their own license. It is not covered near enough in the classroom, and severe damage can be caused if done improperly. I was grandfathered in before the cosmetology association got ahold of lashes, but it doesn’t make sense. They created separate courses for nails, makeup, and waxing, why not lashes? Hopefully the industry will change 🤞
Yes agreed ❤️
And most will have to have an Instructors License. A certification adds to an existing profession. Esthetics is not a lash course and that's why a class in lash Extensions is additional. Minnesota has a 38 hour course. Beauty school DO NOT teach Lashes. It is a separate course and will never be apart of the course.
💜💜💜
I like this video a lot and it helped me feel more comfortable with taking a class first before going to beauty school. I have definitely wasted money on schools trying to learn a completely different profession and regret it a lot.
It happens to the best of us! But we are happy that this helped 💕✨
Tell me why when she said “ you can’t take out class” she said it like mean girls “ you can’t sit with us”😂😂😂
😂😂😂
Does some government entity come by annually like they do salons and make sure you’re keeping an SDS and storing bleach properly and labeling cleaning products etc etc and have everything in order?
We haven’t had that but we do have state board come check our salons a few times a year. They always check to make sure everything is labeled ❤️
Everyone’s journey is different and we need more kindness like you two in the world 🥰
aww thank you for that ♥
So if we live in california that requires the esthetician or cosmetology license. We can't take your course since you are in nevada? I ask as im looking to do beauty school next year maybe. Or year after. So I do it right way. Any advise is strongly appreciated. 😁
Yes so if you were to come to Nevada to take our course you would need to be licensed in order to take it❤️
PLEASE OPEN SCHOOLS.
Shauna and mike.... please open a school 🥺😭
Oh boy alotttt of work ! 😂
I live in Connecticut and they incorporate a 50 hours eyelash course ($2,700) in some beauty schools
That's awesome! I'm happy to hear that they do that!
I must live on the wrong side of CT bc I just graduated esthi school and we didn’t even touch on lashes 😭🥺 although I have my esthetics license I’m working on getting a dual license for skin and lashes so I’m highly considering going back to a state accredited school for lashing tho, lashing is super big in my area rn and just being certified isn’t gonna cut it 🤞🏼😗
@Kammie yes you are right I was just looking into this school in Bridgeport ct.. I’m looking forward to signing up cause I got BIG plans in 2021!!!! ❤️
@@katreshruffin3473 Bridgeport??? Me too, lol I’m planing to enroll next month, I hope everything goes well and we get this license, I’m ready for 2021💕
@Kammie yess luv we definitely will
Get them the school I looked up is call gorgeous by glam beauty Academy.. they are located in Bpt on the eastside..
You guys are great!!! I really want to take your class I saw you are coming to PA😍😍😍
So I am a little confused, I took a lash extension course because that’s what I want to do, but the lady who taught me didn’t tell me we needed to be licensed, we even asked and she told us that once we are certified (California) we can start right away. So is she not allowed to teach us if we are not licensed?
It depends on your state boards rules if you have to be licensed to take a courses however to legally work in California you do need a license
Personally just coming from working in a shop where most women are only licensed in lashes. & from what I’ve seen in my area. Esti’s are cleaner & I only say this because it was beat into our heads on sanitation. Day after day. Routine is huge & will stick with you forever. That’s the only reason I say people should go to school because I think cleanliness is huge. I’ve seen some shady stuff for ladies with certificates & ONLY Lash licensed ladies. J/S. But again school doesn’t teach much on lashes. No volume training, just the basics. So I appreciate my certifications. So yea I can see both ways.
Where did you start talking about the diferreences?
its in the video!
Do you need to be licensed to teach certification courses? I’m a lash artist/trainer from Canada
Hi love, it depends on what your area requirements are. 💖
Shaunas laugh while I’m driving and listening to the podcast is the cutest ♥️😩👶👰♀️
I totally loved this video!!!!!! You guys helped me so much I already know how to get started !!!
Yay! Thank you love!!💜💜💜
Holy heck I live in Alaska ready to get all the answers and start my business!!!!! And here you go saying Alaska lol. Great help. Thanks.

Good luck! Thank you for watching
I have a question, okay I’m a beginner lash tech and I’ve took an course and got certified but I’m lost on how to find the rules of the state board in Alabama to getting my license and I’m confused on where is best for me to start ?💗
Hi love! You should be able to go visit your state board website for that information or call 💗
I’m from FL & my school didn’t teach nothing but to put strip lashes on.
hey Canada, its me, ya boy. I am in Canada and want to do a lash course, but my town is small and one place charges 2k and its a 4 day course, it seems so short for me. how long should a good course be?
Georgia is one of the states that doesn't matter whether u have an esthetics license or lash certification because lashes aren't a practice which state board governs, I'm an esthetician and certified lash tech but realistically after getting my esthetic license I didn't have to spend nothing else to train I could've started lashing w/o being certified just hopped over to doing lashes......and as someone w/a License who knows both sides it is detrimental to be sending these ppl out to work on the most sensitive organ of the body we just a certificate, not being judgemental but there's NO WAY u learned ALL infection control procedures, safety & sanitation, & the science behind hair growth, eye function, & assessed eye shape and proper execution of a lash set within 5 days like it's a cram course and we're sending these folks out to work on ppls eyes that is the problem that's why I personally feel any Esthetician and Lash tech should be treated the same U NEED A LICENSE PERIODT

Im from Indiana. So i paid 900 for an 8hr lash class for a certificate. They didn't teach much! But I am that single mom of 3 kids! I want to go get my esthetician license. I wanna become a lash instructor. I also want to do microblading. But I have no clue where to start?!?
Getting your license is definitely set one to making it official! Most schools don't cover lashes in detail like we do, so check out more of our vids or if you want a forever lash mentor to assist you all through your lash journey you can sign up for a physical or virtual class at livbaylashclass.com
I’m an esthetician in Texas they didn’t teach about lashing, but at that point I wasn’t interested til after I graduated. Of course I had to pay to get trained so that I didn’t main. If lashing was to be the only thing I wanted to do then I would have just gone to the lashing class instead.
I always learn something new when watching your videos !!!
Soo happy to hear that!! ♥
I can’t believe you guys understand, so real so real I just want do eye lashes and since my state doesn’t allow if you don’t have esthetician license.
So now I am working on getting it .
Just to be lash tech.
I just got certified in July 2021....I live in Texas.
Congratulations 👏
Can you guys talk about taxes if you haven’t already
I’m not so much pissed that girls are doing it unlicensed.... I’m pissed for my clients. When I’ve got girls who ask my pricing and ghost me but message me 2 weeks later after going to someone cheaper who only got a certification (from someone else who also isn’t licensed properly) and my clients lashes are all stuck together, hurting my client... I do a removal and half their lashes are gone in chunks. Like that’s why I’m pissed. Because it’s taking a great loyal client out of the equation to have to grow her lashes back for a few months. I’m in CO. You have to be licensed esthi or cosmetology here and a lash certification to do lashes. I had 2 beauty schools close on me while trying to finish my 1800 hour cosmetology course and it took me 3 years to graduate. Then I got out and had to pay another $1500 for just a classic lash course at the time. So.... about $23,500 in tota for me to just do lashes. And girls think they can just take a course from anyone and do lashes?? No, I had to show my cosmetology license anytime I’ve taken any sort of course. I couldn’t get into the class without showing it. So why isn’t that a requirement?? It’s not consistent. And my beauty school taught me absolutely nothing about lashes. Not even 1 day, and I went to 3 beauty schools. Yes. Make lashes a seperate license like nails. Because it pisses me off when my clients try somewhere cheaper and come back to me for a removal and not able to get a new set. Like I get lashes are a luxury service, but now it’s like everyone and their mom thinks they can just stick lashes on people with gorilla glue and call it good. 🤦🏻♀️
Keep on going girlfriend... you got this 💗
Did you guys talk about lashing insurance ?
Wait if Get certified in a state where you don’t need to have an Etsy liscense how do i make sure I’m insured compared to someone with a liscense?
This is a great question, if you DM us on Instagram we can get Mike to answer it…he is the BIG brain on this stuff!
I finished a master esthics course in Washington state at the end of October 2020. I moved back to my home town in Washington, in the pacific northwest right after I finished school. Because of covid testing was backed up . When finally was able to get testing dates scheduled the county I live in went back to phase 1 . My mother and my grandmother live in my home as well and they don't feel comfortable with me traveling out of town to testing facilities until number go down so I had to cancel my testing dates . I will reschedule as soon as things are safer ... I finished my course about a mouth and half sooner than everyone else who started the same time as me . I didn't miss much class . I studied hard . I got in and out quickly. I wanted to do lashes from day one . Its so hard to keep this info fresh in my mind . I currently lash from home . I do not charge . I take donations - I don't do services without donations but since I am still learning and I am not licensed through the state my clients make donations of about half of what they would usually pay .
I would much rather be licensed and work under somebody but I need to generate income... any advice?
The school I’m signing up for has about like 3-5 Days set aside for lashes which is why o chose them. I want to be able to to know the skin and the sanitation’s and things like that. Plus I don’t want to have my clients asking me to do a quick brow wax or something like that to finish off the look and not be able to do it. Imagine how much more money some lash artist could make adding a $15-20 brow wax to even HALF of their clients. That’s why I feel like going all the way is worth it. Plus luckily my state (MD) doesn’t have any requirements for lash techs

I am a student at Aveda in Texas for esthetician. You are correct about not having a lash class and it being from an outside business and being an extra fee.
I literally just emailed them today about doing the lash course here! I don’t want to waste my time or money taking the aesthetician course and maybe spending a day training in lashes! All the states definitely need to change that
YES we hope some day soon the laws will change ❤️
Love your channel. This episode helped me understand the difference between certified and licensed. The class/training I'm taking states they only give certification of completion but are not "certified" as there is no "certifying body for eyelash extensions". Is that true?
That’s semi true- some states. I believe Texas is one of them, that has a lash specific license. But if you check with your state board that’s the safest bet!✨✨
Uplifting and inspirational ❤️
My Esthetics course taught lash tabbing for one day during a makeup section which is just ardell cluster falsies. I didn’t need to be an esty to do PMU but I wanted to be able to offer more services. Tattoo artists can’t wax eyebrows. Most lash courses teach NOTHING about sanitation and disease prevention. I’ve seen lash artists brag about cleaning their implements with just the tips in barbicide. That’s the problem I have with just doing a course. You need to know how to clean linens for the PUBLIC not your home. At LEAST tattoo requirements have an HIV blood born pathogens course requirement.
We go over all state board requirements, sanitation, how to properly clean your tools in our course 🤍
You can also apprentice, which is what I did and mostly because it was more beneficial for me to work, build a clientele all while making money. It did take me twice as long to finish but was well worth it. It is also illegal to do services with any license while not operating in a licensed establishment.
I've been in contact with DHHS in my state. Sent them what cosmetology doesnt cover regarding lashes. Plus what program i have learned through, I keep writing them. I am in contact with them almost daily!
Never give up! You got this boo 🧡🧡
In our state, we have to be licensed in esthe. or cosmo. in order to legally lash, but we can get lash certified as long as we are students in either. We can "practice" on family but can't legally charge anyone until we have our license. Now that we are in Covid crisis, our state boards are backed up by 3-4 months, so people have to get on a waitlist just to get their license. So here's a question, when you teach in Oregon, would you still teach someone who is still in school, waiting for their boards & have a certification, or those that are license holders only?
Yes as long as it’s allowed by state board than you can still take the course if your in school ❤️
Hello, hopefully this isn’t a dumb question but is it possible to take cosmetology classes online? Or everything has to be in person? I live in the middle of nowhere & the closest beauty school to me is an hour away
You would need to check with your state! ❤️
Im only half way through this video and i am rolling! Its hard to amuse me but yall are fuc*ing great together! New subscriber ;)
Awee, thank you SOO much!!! Hehe 🥰😊😍
I don't want to do lashes only though. I want to do a lot more. It is upsetting that they don't teach lashes. It's actually ridiculous. But I mind my business. I'm not officer no badge lol
It’s so upsetting they don’t teach lashes because it is an esthetic service just like everything else you learn in school
You guys act like you don't like one another. How are you guys supposed to be trust worthy?
Hmm that’s a first, thanks for your feedback 😊
Would a registered nurse be able to get licensed in Ohio as a lash tech ? N when u say state board? Which state board do I contact.? In Ohio ?
Hi love, you'll have to check with your state boards. ❤
