Why Pretty Lash

Train with the best. Lash with confidence.

Small classes, professional products and a certification that means something. Here's what sets our students apart.

The best training

Learn from a lash artist with years behind the chair.

Start with theory and safety, build skill on worksheets and a mannequin, then complete full sets on live models with your instructor right beside you. Small groups, so nobody gets left behind.

Professional products

Train with what the pros use.

Your Pretty Lash Academy kit includes the lashes, adhesive, tweezers and tools you need to start working right after class, so you never practice with cheap supplies.

Real certification

Graduate certified and ready.

Graduate as a Pretty Lash Certified Lash Artist, plus a bonus certification, with business, marketing and 30 days of mentorship to help you book your first clients.

No. You receive your Pretty Lash Certified Lash Artist certificate. New Jersey requires a state license to perform lash extensions professionally, and we'll explain which license you need and where to get it.

Any requirements or licenses to take a class?

No experience or license is needed to take our beginner classes. To work on paying clients in New Jersey you will need a state license, and we explain exactly which one and where to get it.
