Becoming a Licensed Brow Lamination Specialist
- Research and Training
To become a licensed brow lamination specialist, first research brow lamination training courses and find one accredited by a reputable organization that fits your needs. Next, sign up for a one to two-day course that teaches everything you need to know. Then, pass the certification exam.
- Licensing Requirements
You need either an esthetician license or cosmetologist license to perform services like lash lifts and brow lamination in California.
- Appointment Process
For your appointment, arrive with a freshly washed face. The brows will be cleansed before a lifting cream solution is applied. After some minutes, the solution is removed. Then the brows are set in place with gel and brush. Optionally, a tint can be applied for more color.
