Master vs. Junior Lash Artist: What's the Difference?
When booking your lash appointment at Elusive Beauty, you may notice the option to choose between a Master Lash Artist and a Junior Lash Artist. But what does that mean? And how do you know which one is right for you?
Let’s break it down.
Training & Certification: The Foundation Is the Same
At Elusive Beauty, both Junior and Master Artists receive the same core training:
-
Completion of the Elusive Beauty Lash Extension Course
-
Certification in Eye Health & Safe Lash Application
-
Ongoing education in lash anatomy, styling, hygiene, and retention
This means both levels of artists are trained to prioritize your safety, protect your natural lashes, and deliver beautiful results—but their experience and speed differ.
Junior Lash Artists: Passionate, Precise, and Perfection-Driven
Our Junior Lash Artists are newer to the industry but don’t mistake that for inexperience. They are extremely detail-oriented, dedicated to the craft, and closely mentored by Master Artists. They take more time to ensure every lash is perfectly placed, often producing work that rivals more seasoned artists.
💡 Booking with a Junior Artist means:
More appointment time (up to 3 hours for a full set)
Lower pricing
High-quality, careful application
Perfect for clients who aren’t in a rush and want precision
Master Lash Artists: Expertise Meets Artistry
Master Artists at Elusive Beauty have years of experience, have completed numerous advanced certifications, and specialize in complex styles like:
-
Anime or Medusa-inspired sets
-
Customized lash maps for unique eye shapes
-
Advanced texture and layering techniques
-
Handmade fans and bottom lashes
-
Troubleshooting retention issues
They work with speed, efficiency, and confidence—often completing full sets in 90 minutes or less with 100% coverage and perfect symmetry.
💡 Booking with a Master Artist means:
Advanced styling options
Faster appointments
Artistic customizations
Ideal for clients with specific style goals or limited time
Health & Safety: No Compromises at Any Level
Regardless of who you book with, you can feel confident knowing all artists at Elusive Beauty are trained in:
-
Disinfection & sanitation protocols
-
Proper lash assessments and intake
-
Facial analysis to ensure your style complements your features
-
Safe application techniques to preserve natural lash health
Yes, We Accept Foreign Fills – With Caution
Whether you book with a Junior or Master Artist, we do accept foreign fills, as long as it’s safe to proceed. We’ll perform a lash assessment at the start of your appointment to evaluate the condition and compatibility of your current extensions. If we find that the work is poor quality or harmful to your lashes, we may recommend a full removal and new set for your safety.
So… Who Should You Book With?
✨ Choose a Junior Lash Artist if you:
-
Want a budget-friendly appointment
-
Are okay with a longer time slot
-
Appreciate a gentle, perfectionist touch
🌟 Choose a Master Lash Artist if you:
-
Want a customized or trendy style
