A certificate of completion is not a state license.

A class at the Taller teaches lash application. A license is the state's, and it decides who may be paid to work on clients.

Licensing

What you receive, and what the state asks for

  • What you receive

    A certificate of completion from Taller de Pestañas, with the class and the dates. It shows what you studied. It is not a license.

  • What the state asks for

    In most states a license from the board of cosmetology or esthetics is needed to be paid for lash work. The hours of school and the exam belong to the board.

  • What to do first

    Call your state board before you enroll anywhere. Ask what license lash extensions need in your state, how many hours of school it asks and whether a short class counts toward them.

Licensing questions

Do I need a license to enroll?

No. Anyone 18 or older can take a class. A license matters when you want to be paid to work on clients.

Can I work on clients after a class?

Only as your state allows. In most states that means a license first. Ask your state board.

Does a class prepare me for the state exam?

No. The Taller teaches lash application, not the board's exam. A cosmetology or esthetics school does that.

Where do I find my state board?

Search for your state's board of cosmetology. It lists the license types and the hours of school each one asks for.
