Whether you are starting from scratch or adding lashes and brows to what you do now, this pathway was built for it. You learn the treatments, from brow mapping to lash extensions, then how to run it as a business.
The business side is built in. You prepare a business plan, learn bookkeeping basics, complete a Certificate in Xero, and get mentor guidance on service menus, pricing and marketing.
Skin and hair fundamentals and the toolkit come first, then the treatment work. You practise at home, upload photos, and your mentor reviews every activity with corrections. It is about capability, not perfection.
Brow lamination, tinting and henna, lash lifting and extensions. You also get wholesale pricing through Barneys Salon Supplies, so building your kit does not cost retail.
Lash and brow work is everywhere: salons and brow bars, freelance and mobile work, and businesses people build for themselves. The work is easy to picture. Mapping a brow, lifting a lash set, and sending someone out the door feeling great.
Lifts, tints and extensions, with the isolation, placement and safety work covered in the course.
Mapping, shaping, lamination, tinting and henna. The full brow menu, built step by step.
Your own clients and your own hours, with the business component behind the bookings.
A way into salon work, where hygiene, product knowledge and client care matter every day.
The bigger build. Business structures, a plan, bookkeeping and Xero are all in the pathway.
Take the kit to the client. The starter kit and wholesale pricing help you build for the road.
Roles where these skills are useful, not promised outcomes. Every role is different, and some need more study or experience. Broader beauty therapy work carries its own NZ qualifications.
Eight lash and brow topics, plus a five-part business component.
Here is what stands out in this pathway.
Clare Haeusler has over a decade across brows, lashes and salon management, and owns a beauty business. She personally reviews all your practical work with step-by-step corrections, and you can message her directly.
Professional gear including a digital wax heater, tints, wax and tools. The kit is released after the cooling-off period when you pay in full, or after four successful plan payments.
One pathway covers both: the lash and brow craft, then business types, a business plan, bookkeeping, Xero, and optional digital marketing with AI.
