04 May How to choose the right lash technician: a complete guide

The lash world has exploded over the past few years, and while that means more choice, it also means more variation in skill and safety than most people realise. Your lashes, and the delicate eye area around them, deserve someone who really knows what they’re doing. So whether or not you come to us, here’s how to choose a lash technician you can trust.

Find someone who matches your style

Every lash artist has a signature. Look through their real portfolio and make sure the looks they create are the looks you love, whether that’s soft and natural or full and glamorous.

Check their training, and that it’s current

This industry moves quickly, and good technicians keep learning. Ask about qualifications and recent training, particularly around lash health and retention. A professional will be happy to tell you.

Look for real work, not just pretty pictures

Anyone can post a beautiful stock image. Ask to see photos of their own clients, ideally before and after, so you know the work is really theirs.

Book a consultation and ask questions

A reputable technician will want to talk through your goals, check the health of your natural lashes and explain the aftercare. If someone is reluctant to answer questions, take it as a sign.

Treat it like a hair appointment

You wouldn’t hand your hair to just anyone, and lashes are no different. They’re an investment in how you look and feel every day, so choose the person, not just the price.
