Frequently Asked Questions About Hiring Lash Technicians
It varies by state. Some states require an esthetician or cosmetology license to apply lash extensions, while others only require certification from a training program. Check your state's requirements.
Lash technicians earn $30,000 to $65,000+ per year. Experienced lash artists with a loyal clientele can earn more. Tips and retail commission can add significantly to base income.
Lash-specific training typically takes 1-4 weeks. However, if your state requires an esthetician license, you'll need to complete that program first (600-1,500 hours).
Classic lashes attach one extension to one natural lash for a natural look. Volume lashes use multiple thinner extensions per natural lash for a fuller, more dramatic effect.
