Lift

Learn the authentic Korean method properly, on real models, one on one with me.

Fridays in Diamond Creek · Private 1:1 · One student a day

Sound familiar?

  • Your lifts look different from client to client and you cannot pick why
  • You cannot read overprocessing until the lashes are already gone
  • Stubborn, coarse or downward facing lashes never sit right
  • Previously processed lashes fall flat no matter what you do
  • You are already lifting, but you know the work could be sharper

That is exactly what these days are for.

Who it is for

Beginner training is for you if

  • You have never done a lash lift
  • You are a beauty professional adding a brand new service to your menu
  • You want to learn it properly the first time
  • You want to do it the authentic Korean way, not a version of it

Upskill is for you if

  • Your lifts are inconsistent from client to client
  • You struggle to read overprocessing
  • Certain lash types will not play nice
  • You are already lifting and want the day spent on refinement and troubleshooting, not the basics

Why train with me

I never stopped
doing the work

7Years in lashes
3Years on the Korean lift
4Client days a week
1:1Never a group class

I was one of the first artists bringing the authentic Korean Lash Lift to Melbourne.

I run a fully booked home studio in Diamond Creek, four days a week, six to seven clients a day. Korean Lash Lift and Tint is the service I do most. So everything I teach you, I did this week, on real clients, on every lash type there is.

  • One student a day. You are never sharing me
  • We work through every model together, with me right alongside you
  • The manual is mine, 115 pages, and it is yours to keep
  • You can message me afterwards for as long as you need. I answer

Traditional lift against Korean lift

Why artists are switching

Traditional lash lift

  • Results can be inconsistent. Sometimes beautiful, sometimes not
  • Harsh solutions can leave lashes brittle and dry
  • Curl can drop within two to three weeks, or overprocess
  • One size fits all shields, so every client gets the same look
  • Clients do not rebook, and your confidence takes the hit

Korean lash lift

  • Consistent results you can rely on every single time
  • Gentle glueless formulas that keep lashes hydrated and healthy
  • Curl lasts six to eight weeks
  • Customisable shields and rods for every eye shape and lash direction
  • Clients see the difference, happily pay $100 to $150, and rebook

Traditional lash lifts leave too much to chance. And in this industry, chance does not build a business.

The full day, hour by hour

We work through every model together. You are hands on from the very first one, with me right next to you the whole way.

Your models

You organise your models, and once your date is locked in I send you everything they need to know. Cannot find anyone? Tell me. I can help you find models, it is never a reason not to book.

What you actually learn

01

Introduction to the Korean Lash Lift

What a lash lift actually is, what makes the Korean method different, why it belongs on your menu, who it suits, and how to time and price it.

02

Lash anatomy

Eye anatomy, the natural lash and follicle, the three layers of a lash, porosity, and the growth cycle. Why some lashes behave and others never will.

03

Chemistry and tint

The chemistry of shape, the disulfide bond, how a lift works in three steps, what each solution is actually doing, and what goes wrong when it does.

04

Client consultation

Assessing the natural lash, contraindications, patch testing, setting expectations, records and consent, hygiene and sterilisation.

05

Product knowledge

Your full product system, tools and protective materials, and product safety and storage. Taught generically so you can map any kit onto it.

06

Silicone foundation and shield selection

How the shield decides the result, the softening pad, shield shapes and what each one produces, shield sizing and the 60% rule, eye shapes, and curl results through grow out.

07

The procedure

Standard and glueless methods, preparation and lash assessment, softening and wrapping, setting the curl, then tinting, conditioning and aftercare.

08

Troubleshooting

Underprocessing, overprocessing, how to relax a lift, and every common issue with the fix that goes with it.

09

Client aftercare

The first 24 hours, ongoing home care, what your client should expect, when to rebook, and contra actions.

The nourishing step is never skipped and never rushed. It is the whole point of the Korean Lash Lift, and it is what separates a good lift from a damaging one.

Two real training days

What actually happens

Not testimonials. The whole day, start to finish. What each artist came in wanting, what we worked on, and the lashes they walked out able to do.

Case study 01 · Upskill

Demi Thomas

Studio Silk Beauty
Mini Masterclass · 3.5 hours · 1 model

What she came for

Demi was already lifting. She wanted her technique and her placement refined, a proper understanding of step one and how to read processing rather than watching a timer, and all the little details that never make it into a standard training. Underneath all of it, she wanted to feel confident that every client would walk out with the same result.

What we got up to

We skipped the basics entirely. Placement first, rebuilt from the ground up. Then step one, what it is actually doing inside the lash and how to read the processing by eye. Then the nitty gritty, the small decisions that separate a lift that is fine from one that is beautiful.

Case study 02 · Beginner

Ashleigh Jeffrey

Arched Oasis
Full day · 7 hours · 3 models

What she came for

Ashleigh was already doing lash lifts, but she wanted a proper deep dive rather than a refresher, so she took the full beginner day. She wanted to go back to the ground up, rebuild the fundamentals properly, and come out confident in every part of it.

What we got up to

A full day across three models. We started at the very beginning and worked up, the basics done properly, then refining her technique model by model. By the third one she was working through it with her own hands and her own timing.

You ask, I answer

Questions

Do I need any experience?
Not for the beginner training. It is built for people who have never touched a lash lift. Upskill is different, that one assumes you are already lifting and want to sharpen the work.
Do I have to find my own models?
Yes, you organise your own. Three for the beginner training, one for Upskill. Once your date is confirmed I send you everything your models need to know. And if you cannot find anyone, tell me. I can help you find models, so it is never a reason to hold off booking.
What do I need to bring?
Yourself, something to take notes on, and your models. Every product, tool and disposable is supplied.
How do I secure my date?
A $300 deposit holds it. The balance is invoiced before your training day and paid by bank transfer.
Do I have to buy a kit?
No. Everything is supplied on the day. There is an optional professional kit for $499 if you want to start offering the service straight away.
Where is the training held?
My home studio in Diamond Creek, Melbourne. The full address and parking details are sent to you once your booking is confirmed.
Is there anything to do before the day?
Yes, and this is what makes it hybrid. You get my full online Korean Lash Lift course to work through at your own pace first, so the day in the studio is spent on models rather than theory. Upskill students also get a short questionnaire so I can build the day around exactly what you need.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes, a Certificate of Completion on the day.
