ABOUT ME
I’m Shola and for the past 7 years I’ve been better known as Lashes by Shola.
I am super excited to announce that I am now offering accredited courses! I can’t wait to pass on all my skills and knowledge that I’ve learnt over the past 6 years!
I have worked super hard to ensure that every little detail has been included into my courses and nothing has been missed out. I also made sure that only the highest quality products that I actually use myself were included in the kits, because if I wouldn’t use the products on my own clients, then why should you?
QUALIFICATIONS:
- Classic course - May 2017
- Russian Volume course - May 2018
- Lash Lift & Tint - September 2021
- Level 3 in AET (Advanced Education & Training) - 2022
I still attend different lash events and masterclasses as I think it’s important to keep up to date on the newest lash trends and learn new styles and techniques.
ABOUT ME:
Growing up I never knew what I wanted to do in life and I never had a dream job in mind. I went to college and studied Travel & Tourism and realised that I love travelling but didn’t want to work in the travel industry. After getting ill in 2016 I realised there was way more to life than working in a boring retail job that would replace you in seconds if you was to leave. Waking up and dreading going to work everyday wasn’t how I wanted to live… I wanted to enjoy my life, travel as much as possible and find a career I’d be passionate about!
Lash extensions weren’t very popular before 2016 and were usually only worn for special occasions - so being a “lash tech” wasn’t really heard of. I’ve always had a passion for beauty and makeup and I religiously wore stick on/ strip lashes everyday, so the thought of being a lash tech intrigued me. Two months later, I quit my retail job and I’ve been lashing full time ever since!
I’m obsessed with the life and freedom that being a lash tech has given me… I’m my own boss, I go on multiple holidays a year, I’m in control of my income but most of all I’m happy and I absolutely love my job!
Whether you want to become a full time lash tech or only do it as a side hustle…I can’t wait for you to experience this freedom & lifestyle too!
MY AIM:
After attending a bad lash course in 2017, I left confused and had no idea what I was doing. Thankfully I stuck at it, I watched video after video, attended masterclasses and practiced everyday until I was fully confident in applying lashes. After that, I knew that one day I would offer detailed in-depth courses so that no other student has to go through that struggle.
So my main aim from my training courses are to ensure you leave fully understanding absolutely everything, feeling 100% confident and excited for your future as a lash tech!
