Categories
There are 6 categories-classic, volume, pre-made, lash lift, brow lamination and brow design.
You can enter one category entirely free of charge. If you want to enter more than one category then there will be a fee.
You can enter as many categories as you like but you only get 1 free entry and can only enter each category once.
1 category free
2 categories £30
3 categories £55
4 categories £75
5 categories £90
6 categories £100
Ability Levels
There will be 3 ability levels
Beginners- lashers who have been lashing for less than 12 months
Experts- lashers who have been lashing from 1-3 years
Masters -lashers who have been lashing for 3 years or more.
Anyone who is a trainer must automatically enter into the master category irrespective of how long you have been lashing.
This is taken from the time you started training in that category. So if you did a classic course in 2010 but only did your volume course in 2020, you will enter as a beginner. For Pre-made lashes, this will go from when you did your first lash training.
Prizes
There will be prizes for 1st, 2nd and 3rd places.
There will also be spot prizes.
We will also have a Grand Prix prize for the entry that scores the most points overall in any category. In the event of a tie then the judges will decide.
