What To Expect From A Classic And Russian Lash Course With BELO
Our Classic and Russian lash course covers a broad range of skills, strategies, and tools for becoming a fully established, successful lash artist.
From pre-treatment procedures such as setting up client consultations and health and safety practices to adhesive management and volumising techniques, this Classic and Russian lash course leaves no lash unturned so that you can become the BELO babe you were born to be.
Our Classic and Russian lash course takes a playful yet thorough approach to education so that people from every experience level can learn these important beauty skills. The course includes lessons on:
Pre-treatment procedures
Every beautiful set of lashes starts off with great preparation and consultation skills. Meeting with clients, discussing options, preparing your station, and practising professional-level health and safety are all necessary for producing beautiful lashes, no matter what kind.
In this part of our Classic and Russian lash course, we’ll show you how to elevate your lash game with excellent prep and pre-treatment skills. From patch testing to spotting contra-indications and knowing how the lash cycle works, you’ll get to grips with it all.
Classic and Russian lash application techniques
There is no one-size-fits-all when it comes to classic and Russian volume lash application techniques. Because Classic lashes are applied 1 1 to individual lashes and Russian lashes are applied in fans, there are some tricks, techniques and secrets that you need to learn to master them both.
Each of these lash types also has distinctive application methods and requires different tools —all of which we’ll break down in simple terms during the course.
Adhesive management
Understanding adhesives is crucial for becoming a great lash artist. Lash glue plays a big role in how eyelash extensions are applied, which is why we focus on comprehensive knowledge about them in the Classic and Russian lash course.
We’ll discuss adhesive types, storage, application, shelf life, and everything else you need to know about managing this sticky stuff like a seasoned pro.
Application, isolation, and attachment
Our Classic and Russian lash course would not be complete without a section on applying the lashes themselves.
But that’s not all. In this part of the course, we’ll take you on a comprehensive journey through fan creation, application, isolation, and attachment, providing you with a 360-degree perspective on setting lashes from start to finish. Speaking of finish, we’ll also teach you how to remove the lash extensions safely.
Lash mapping
Lash mapping, i.e., the art of mapping out a client’s facial and eye structure to create the most aligned and symmetrical eyelash extensions possible, is an important component of our Classic and Russian lash course.
During your career as a lash artist, you’re likely to encounter a vast range of different faces and bone structures, all of which will need to be accommodated with professional grace. Knowing how to perform lash mapping will help you create more well-proportioned and natural lashes.
Volumising techniques
Even though Russian lashes are more known for their voluminous look and feel, understanding the basics of volumising is a useful tool you can apply to all types of lashes going forward.
This part of the Classic and Russian lash course will teach you how to get the boldest, thickest, and most naturally full-looking lashes imaginable.
Maintenance and post-treatment aftercare
Knowing how to maintain your practice, tools, and clients during and after treatments is another central component of any emerging lash artist’s repertoire. We’ll teach you how to set down your station and take care of your tools, and we’ll share tips you can pass on to your clients about lash care, lash health, and maximising retention.
Business Tips, Pricing Strategies, And Marketing Advice
Our Classic and Russian lash course doesn’t just include information about the practical components of lash artistry. It also features a comprehensive guide to navigating the business side of the beauty industry, empowering new lash techs to take the world by storm.
We’ll help you develop a pricing strategy, marketing position, and professional marketing approach that sets you apart from the crowd and propels your career forward.
