EXPERTISE

RECOMMENDATIONS
I completed a Classic Lash course with Lyndsey today with no previous experience; I felt very welcome and really enjoyed the course. I learnt all the skills to be able to practice then start doing my own lash extensions on customers. I would 100% recommend, thank you!!
Lyndsey was fantastic. I attended the two day gel and acrylic nail course and loved it. The amount of information and knowledge Lyndsey shared with me was fantastic. She certainly knows her stuff. I would most definitely recommend The Academy. I also felt reassured having confidence that I can contact Lyndsey afterwards for feedback on my work and any help I may need. Ten out ten from me!
