ABOUT ME
How did I get started?
With over 7 years of experience in the beauty industry, I began my journey with training at London Lash and have since continued to develop my skills through masterclasses with some of the best in the business, including Miss Lash and others. After years of experience, I’ve developed my own signature ‘Whispy’ look, thanks to a deep understanding of eyelash extensions, the structure of natural lashes, and a dedication to creating flawless results.
Starting with lash extensions, I soon expanded my expertise to include lash lifts, brow treatments, and lip blush, continually learning and perfecting my techniques. In 2022, I proudly opened my own salon, working with other professionals to offer a range of beauty treatments in a welcoming, relaxing environment, right in the centre of Bedford.
The Academy
As someone passionate about beauty and education, I saw a need for comprehensive, knowledge-driven lash training. That’s why I launched the Lashed by Jaq Academy—to provide accredited, hands-on courses that equip you with in-depth knowledge, technique and skills, not just a get rich quick scheme. My training is for those looking to build a lasting career and achieve top-tier results.
As a small business owner who grew from part-time work on the side to running a fully booked salon, I understand the importance of quality training.
My Academy courses include everything you need to get started, plus lifetime business mentoring - including access to all my tips & tricks from years in the industry, ensuring you have the confidence and expertise to succeed. My commitment is to deliver top-quality, in-depth training to help my students become the most in-demand professionals in the industry.
When I’m not in the salon or teaching, you’ll usually find me outdoors with my son, squeezing in a gym session, or planning my next city break. I believe in living life with balance—hard work, quality time with family, and always making space for a little adventure. That energy feeds into everything I do, from how I run my business to the way I teach and support my students.
I’m always looking to grow and expand my services, so keep an eye on my Instagram for the latest updates. Whether you’re interested in booking a treatment or starting your lash career, I’d love to see you at the salon.
Drop me a message if you’d like to chat—I’d love to hear from you!
