Connecticut Eyelash Technician License Requirements
To secure your eyelash technician license in Connecticut, you must:
Complete a 50-Hour Training Program: Enroll in and finish a course of at least 50 hours of study at an approved school. This can be within Connecticut or from a school outside the state that was approved by the appropriate regulatory body at the time of completion. CT.gov

Scope of Practice for Eyelash Technicians in Connecticut
As a licensed eyelash technician in Connecticut, your scope of practice includes:
Applying individual synthetic materials, such as Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT), to enhance the appearance of natural lashes.
Performing advanced techniques like Classic Extensions, Capping, Stacking, and Russian Volume, ensuring the health and integrity of natural lashes.
Maintaining a safe, sanitary, and comfortable environment for clients, prioritizing proper at-home care education to prevent potential infections.
