How To Become A Certified Lash Tech
The process of becoming a lash tech is different from state to state. Please check your state's beauty professional requirements to see how you need to proceed.
Certification is beneficial because it teaches you sanitation, technique, and the very basics of how to become a lash tech. This will provide you with the fundamentals of how to develop your craft.
While becoming certified is different in each state, most will require you take a course with a set number of hours or become a licensed aesthetician. In these courses you will learn about the anatomy of the eye, correct sanitation practices, and the basics of how to style and adhere extensions to your clients' eye lashes.

Decide On A Home-Based or Studio Suite
Every Lash tech needs a place to perform their art. But what setting is best for you? There are a few options when it comes to choosing where you want to work essentially. I, myself, am a home-based lash tech. I enjoy being able to work from home. I have the luxury of not having to commute to work.
On the other hand, I know a lot of lash techs who enjoy renting a studio suite. Some lash techs perform their best in a studio suite. A perk of having a home-based studio is there is no "over head". If you decide to rent a studio suite you will likely have a weekly rent to pay. A perk of having a studio suite is you get to keep your work and home separate. That can be essential for some lash artists work-life balance.
Either are great choices. Take in all pros and cons and pick which location best suits you.
Invest In Quality Lash Product
Quality lash product is essential in being a successful lash tech. My rule of thumb is, if you can purchase it from amazon it's probably not in your best interest. High quality lash product are thoroughly revised and customized to suit both you and your clients needs. The quality of your lash product will effect it's appearance and it's retention. This is why Light Heart spent many months perfecting quality lash product designed with you (the lash artist) in mind. I strongly suggest you taking a peek at our lash collections. Our product line will elevate your skill and productivity as a lash tech.
