Flexible vs. In-Person Hybrid Lash Programs: Which Fits Your Lifestyle?
Starting your lash career is an exciting journey, but one of the biggest decisions you’ll make is choosing the right program that fits your lifestyle and learning style. At DFW Lash University, we understand that every future lash artist has unique needs, which is why we offer two powerful pathways to help you earn your Eyelash Extension Specialist License:
The 8-Week Flexible Online Program
The 12-Week In-Person Hybrid Program
Both are designed to help you complete the 320-hour Texas licensing requirement and prepare you to pass your state written and practical exams with confidence. Let’s break down each program so you can choose the one that’s best for you.
The 8-Week Flexible Program: Fast-Track Your Lash Career
If you’re a self-starter or someone who thrives in a flexible schedule, this program is perfect for you.
✅ Who it’s for:
Certified lash techs who want to fast-track their lash license.
Beginners who prefer learning at their own pace in an online setting.
- Lash artists who work a full-time job or busy most of the time but still want to squeeze in lash school to their schedule.
✅ How it works:
Learn fully online with interactive coursework and guided lessons.
Complete 3 in-person model days with an instructor. These can be done at our Dallas or Odessa campus or with one of our trusted satellite instructors.
Fit your education around work, family, and personal commitments while still staying on track.
This program is ideal if you want the freedom of online learning while still gaining hands-on experience with professional feedback.
The 12-Week In-Person Hybrid Program: Hands-On and Classroom Support
If you learn best in a classroom environment and want more direct interaction with instructors, the 12-week program may be the better fit.
✅ Who it’s for:
Beginners who want extra time to master lash techniques.
Certified lash artists who value in-person guidance and structure.
Students who prefer a classroom setup with peers and instructors.
✅ How it works:
Attend in-person classes at DFW Lash University in Dallas starting at Week 5 of your program, every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, from 5:30pm-9:30pm. Or in Odessa at Evolve Aesthetic Institute: 4 Weeks Online followed by 8 Weeks In-Person, with your choice of Day Shift (MTW 10:00am–2:00pm) or Night Shift (MTW 6:00pm–10:00pm).
Work directly with instructors, ask questions in real time, and build confidence through hands-on practice.
Enjoy a more moderate pace with more support, perfect if you prefer a guided approach.
This program is perfect if you’re motivated by structure, routine, and personal mentorship.
