*To ensure you feel fully confident and get the most from the follow-on Russian Volume Lashes course, we recommend ensuring you plan time and models upon which to practice the fundamental lash isolation and application skills following attendance of your Classic Eyelash Extensions course before attending your Russian Volume Lashes training day. To allow for this practice, some students may prefer to book their two training days with some time between the training dates selected when booking.

This course package consists of two practical training days: Eyelash Extensions (1 day); Russian Volume Lashes (1 day). These courses are not run consecutively and you can choose the dates to suit you at your desired training centre (subject to availability).

Each training day runs from 10am – 4pm and we ask students to arrive at 9.45am to ensure a prompt start. You will learn the theory of the treatment firstly, and spend the majority of the day developing your practical skills, with a short break for lunch.

We have 10 training centre locations including: London Kings Cross, London Clapham Junction, London Bridge, Reading, Milton Keynes, Birmingham, Cambridge, Leeds, Manchester and Newcastle.

All training centre locations are our own exclusive, permanent training facilities are set up, ready to train all-year round. Our centres are highly equipped and staffed by our friendly, fully qualified and experienced tutors. We never train from hotel rooms, conference suites or in-salons to ensure you get the best possible learning experience in spacious, well appointed and easily accessible locations.

All training centres can be reached by public transport. Many centres also have parking on-site or within reasonable walking distance.

We do not include any kits within our training courses, however we provide all products and tools required to complete the practical training on the day, at the training centre for you to use. We took this approach following student feedback so that students are not tied into specific kits or brands of products as part of their course fee, before they are trained and able to make an informed choice. Our training courses teach the generic treatment techniques and processes, they are not brand specific.

We recommend attending training where you will gain advice about different brands and suppliers to enable you to purchase products from your chosen supplier directly following your training. We do offer selected starter kits available to purchase through our website & supplied directly from the supplier to you by courier.

It’s all about eyes – eyelash extensions can transform the eyes by making the eyelashes appear longer, thicker and more enhanced. The treatment involves applying individual lashes to the eye, lengthening and thickening the client’s natural lashes, creating an emphasised look that eliminates the need for mascara. An extremely profitable service to offer with clients returning fortnightly for maintenance (and the average charge for a set is £50-£75), eyelash extensions are becoming an increasingly popular treatment to offer. Perfectly groomed brows are similarly one of the most popular treatments within the salon, and now many mobile and home-based therapists are taking advantage of offering these services to their clients too. Russian Volume Lashes are now hugely popular and taking over from classic individual eyelash extension treatments, allowing you to provide wow lashes that incorporate incredible volume while adding length to the natural lashes.This course package will ensure you are fully-equipped with the skills needed to offer these services to your clients with confidence.

There is no need to remove lash extensions before attending these courses as you will work upon a professional training (mannequin) head to acquire and demonstrate your practical skills in Eyelash Extensions. No kit is included in the course fee. You will be provided with all products/tools required to complete the training days, when you attend the training centre. On the training days, you only need to bring a hand and bath towel for your personal use, completed enrolment form and cold food for your lunch (e.g. sandwich/salad). Tea & coffee are provided.
