Validate your knowledge and skills
You treat clients, deliver a professional service, build your experience, and develop your competences. This is your day-to-day work. You already have the knowledge and skills, but do you have an official certificate to prove it?
If you are looking to gain a valuable credential that formally confirms what you can do, explore the market qualifications available in the Integrated Qualifications Register (IQR). The database features qualifications dedicated to the beauty sector, including eyelash styling.
Who is this qualification for?
This qualification is designed for professionals who provide eyelash extension and thickening services. It confirms comprehensive preparation to perform treatments using a variety of techniques in line with client expectations.
Gaining the certificate may be of particular interest to:

What can a holder of this qualification do?
Anyone holding this certificate is qualified to deliver the service comprehensively and safely. A certified professional will be able to:
- tailor the styling to the client’s individual needs and health: conduct a professional consultation, analyse eye and facial shape, identify potential contraindications, and select an appropriate mapping style (lash length, curl, and thickness);
- maintain a hygienic workstation: adhere to occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations, carry out tool sterilisation, and select appropriate products and personal protective equipment (PPE);
- perform the treatment correctly: meticulously prepare natural lashes (cleansing, degreasing, and isolation) and expertly apply extensions using classic, light volume, or high volume techniques whilst maintaining a safe distance from the eyelid;
- advise on aftercare: provide clear, comprehensive hygiene and aftercare instructions.
