Can we all just appreciate how INCREDIBLE these students’ first EVER full sets are?! 😍👏✨

Every single one of these sets was created during their lash training with Winkies — and for all of them, this was literally their first time ever completing a full set on a real model! 🥹🤍

I’m so proud of how much confidence, skill and understanding they’ve built throughout their training. We work at your pace, focus on getting the foundations right and make sure you leave feeling confident in what you’re doing — not just with a certificate in your hand.

Remember, nobody starts off as an expert. These girls started exactly where every lash artist starts… and look what they’ve created already! ✨

If you’ve been thinking about starting a career in lashes, changing direction, earning some extra income or finding something that fits around family life, this could be your sign. 🤍

Huge congratulations to Jess☁️ on successfully passing her Full Lash Extension Training with Winkies Academy! ✨️👏

I’m so impressed with how well Jess has done throughout her training, and even more excited to see what comes next for her. Since completing the course, she’s secured an amazing spot within a salon and will now be adding lash extensions alongside her hair extension business. 🤍

This is exactly why I love teaching — seeing students leave the academy with the skills, confidence and qualification to start building something of their own.

I can’t wait to watch Jess progress in her career. You absolutely smashed it! 🥹✨

If you’ve been thinking about learning lashes, changing career direction or adding another service to your existing business, Winkies Academy offers fully accredited lash training in a relaxed, supportive environment, with ongoing support even after you qualify. 🤍

“Here at Winkies Academy, we’re a BIG fan of the fans… 😉🌿”

This is one of our students inspecting her very first handmade Russian volume fan — and honestly, that little moment of “I actually did it!” is one of my favourite parts of teaching. 🤍

Russian volume can look intimidating when you first start, which is exactly why we go really in-depth with our fan-making training. We don’t just show you one technique and send you on your way — we break down the theory behind creating beautiful, consistent fans, including lash selection, fibre placement, pickup, opening the fan, controlling the base, symmetry, direction, adhesive control and troubleshooting when things just aren’t fanning the way you want them to.
We give you plenty of hands-on practice, close-up guidance and individual feedback so you understand not only how to make a fan, but why it works.

Because the goal isn’t just to leave with a certificate… it’s to leave feeling confident in what you’re doing. 🌿✨
