Project Description

Become a Licensed Eyelash Technician.

300 hour full time program

Unleash your creativity and begin an exciting and lucrative career in the beauty industry by taking a lash course in Nova Scotia. We created this program due to continued inquiries from both potential students and industry leaders asking for qualified graduates to meet the consumer demand for these services. This 300-hour program is designed to meet the training requirements to successfully prepare you for the provincial exam and licence and covers various types of lash extension applications as well as lash tinting and lifting.

This is the only pathway for individuals with no previous CANS license in Esthetics or Makeup Artistry to gain a mandatory provincial license to perform various lash enhancements and become a Lash Technician. Industry professionals who already hold a CANS license in Nail Technology or Hairstyling are exempt from hours and will be offered a tuition discount.

Our Lash course in Nova Scotia is delivered in a part-time format to allow you to continue working during your program.

Some schools prefer to have intakes each month, however, we prefer to reduce intakes for our 10 month courses to 3 times to improve focus and increase student productivity.

At Elevate Beauty, we believe that a smaller number of students in our Lash Tech program helps improve student engagement and also helps us provide more individualized attention to our students. Hence, our Lash tech course has a maximum number of 12 students.

a) Any application or registration fees are non-refundable

b) Supply and Student Kits are non-refundable except where items are returned unopened or as issued no later than 5 business days after the end of student enrollment.

c) 100% of tuition will be refunded in the event enrollment ends before the program start date.

d) Except as otherwise noted in the Private Career Colleges Act or these regulations, a student whose end of enrollment occurs after the program start date and before the program end date, the following table outlines the refund applicable:

Percentage of Hours of Program delivered to End of Enrollment Refund (Minus any registration fee credited to tuition under subsection 51(2)) Program under 12 weeks

There’s never a time too late to fuel your passion or pursue your dream. Any time you choose to start is right, including now! Believe me, your experience and perspective will be a great asset to you as a las technician.

Maturity and life experience will make you an even better salon or spa professional since it takes many life skills on top of job skills to be successful. Things like dependability, work ethic, and flexibility seem to come more naturally as we age.

First and foremost you need people skills. The desire to help people feel great. In addition, patience, time management, and reliability are also key aspects of success. Talent can certainly help but we’re here to teach you the skills.

Yes, you will get certified as a professional lash technician. Your tuition also includes your CANS admin and Licensing fee.

The lash industry is currently experiencing a boom and the growth is just getting started with the industry expected to grow exponentially. It isn’t surprising that there has been a steady upside in the opening of local lash shops. What’s amazing is that the coming years are projecting tremendous growth for lash experts so now is the perfect time to jump on the eyelash technician course.
