Yes. We take the safety of our staff, student’s and guests very seriously at LashJoy Academy.
In addition to this, LashJoy Academy also engages an external company to conduct a WHS audit on a yearly basis to ensure safety and compliance.
No, if you are unable to provide your own lash models we can supply them for you via our advertising at $35 each. This is a popular option for our interstate students who may not know anyone in Brisbane who can model for them.

Yes, you will. As the lash industry is not regulated in Australia there is no requirement to be "nationally accredited" in order for someone to apply eyelash extensions, so yes you will be qualified and able to work as a Lash Stylist.
The certificate you receive upon successfully completing this course will allow you to source the appropriate insurances needed and we're happy to assist with this process through our contacts.
For international students, as different states have different regulations relating to the eyelash extension industry it's your responsibility to check with your respective Council, State Board of Cosmetology or other health regulations and guidelines to ensure you meet your local industry compliance standards.
No, they are not. As the Eyelash Extension industry is not regulated here in Australia there is no need (or benefit) in attending a nationally accredited course in terms of attaining a higher level of expertise, knowledge or confidence as a Lash Stylist.
Yes, you can. LashJoy Academy allows students to reschedule their course to a later date provided at least 30 days’ notice is given in writing.
If a course needs to be rescheduled more than once, or inside of 30 days from the course start date a re-enrolment fee may apply.
Once a course has been booked all students have a 7 day reflection period whereby they can cancel and receive a full refund. After the reflection period has expired, courses that are cancelled will not receive a refund, however they can be rescheduled provided sufficient notice is given.
Refer to cancellation policy for more details.

All classic and volume eyelash extension training courses are facilitated by LashJoy CEO and Lead Educator, Joy Crossingham.
In addition, our senior educator Lucy Knott assists all classes during practical sessions to ensure all students have ample time with our educators.
4 Day Ultimate Brow Mastery is facilitated by LashJoy Academy senior educator, Lucy Knott.
The key differences between our 4 and 5 day courses is that the 4 day course does not include the module covering Pricing, Social Media Marketing and Business covered on the 4th day.
There is also 1 less 3 hour supervised model practice.
These two courses are very similar in that they both teach LashJoy methods for how to create handmade Russian volume lashes, however, our 3 day course takes things to another level with more advanced classic and hybrid lash application techniques and an additional 4 hour supervised model practice session to perfect your newly acquired skills.
Also, during the 3 day course we cover pricing, social media marketing and business strategy.
Our most popular and most comprehensive course for complete beginners is our 5 Day Classic Lash Mastery Course.
If attending an in-person course in Brisbane is not an option, our Classic Lash Mastery Online course which covers the same content is a great alternative.
Post training support is something we really excel at because we know that’s where it’s needed most particularly in the first year of a new Lash Stylists career.
Not only do we have an entire team working in various departments of the academy to ensure every event runs to perfection, we also have full time staff employed purely to look after our students post training for as long as needed.
As we often say “our students are our brand”. So, the more confident and successful our student's are, the more successful we can be. We are ultra aware that you can’t have one without the other which is why close to 50% off our course enrolments are referral based.
In a short, because it wouldn’t be possible to teach someone how to apply eyelash extensions correctly and safely in any less than 4 full days.
In the early days of eyelash extensions when there was very limited knowledge available, the courses were very short (often just 1 or 2 days at the most) and they barely scraped the surface as to what is required to apply eyelash extensions safely and to a high standard.
1 or 2 days just is not enough time to cover everything that needs to be covered in order for you to leave confident in your fundamental techniques, knowledgeable about products, allergies, hygiene, refills/removals, styling, consultations and about 1000 other essential things!
If you have previously attended a 1 day course you most likely are nodding your head in agreement right now.
Unfortunately, not. Whilst there are some courses around that will try to combine these two it is not recommended.
From our experience very few students will leave confident in both techniques and will struggle for many months to come because they tried to rush their learning.
It’s important to note that “Volume lashing” is significantly more difficult than classic lashing as it is a very different technique which requires the stylist to have certain fundamentals perfected beforehand.
Think of it is how we learn to walk. First we learn to crawl, then we learn to walk.
Attempting to learn Classic and Volume lashing in a single course as a complete beginner would be like trying to run a marathon before you had learnt how to crawl.
As a guide, we find our Classic students are often ready to attend a Volume course within 3-6 months after completing their beginners course (provided they are lashing frequently).
There are many reasons, but essentially it comes down to results. We have a proven track record in producing countless exceptionally talented, award winning and successful Lash Stylists over many years.
This comes down to our unrivalled eyelash extension specific experience that enables us to teach things that most other educators either don’t know, or haven’t learnt yet.
We also know that our mentoring and support lasts well beyond each student's initial 2-5 day training course with us and we factor this in as well. Our student's can always count on us for advice to answer their questions and more.
Combine all this with a lifetime 20% discount at LashJoy and many other benefits that our students receive and it's easy to see the true value in what our Academy offers.
Typically, we cap our classes at no more than 8 attendees with 2 educators, however, due to Covid-19 restrictions we have reduced our number of attendees per class to 4-6.
A great place to see some of the amazing work produced by our student’s during training is via our Instagram accounts @lashjoy_ and @joylashstylist
Search our “highlights”. Another popular hashtag used by LashJoy trained artists is #lashjoyartist so check that one out, too!
Yes, absolutely. At least 50% of the students who attend our Volume and Hybrid Lash Mastery courses have completed their initial classic training with another provider and that’s completely fine.
Just be open to learning new techniques and you’ll get a lot of benefit from your time with us.
