Eyelash and Eyebrow Technician careers
Eyelash and Eyebrow Technicians perform a range of lash and brow services including eyelash extensions and eyebrow waxing — as well as tinting, shaping, and threading. You could be working at a beauty salon, day spa, hotel, resort, or even a cruise ship.
As an Eyelash and Eyebrow Technician you’ll be working in the beauty industry so you’ll also be cleaning and sanitising equipment in between treatments. And depending on the size of the salon where you work, you might also be expected to process financial transactions, take bookings and appointments, and sell retail products.
