Professional Lash Training for Today’s Beauty Industry

Meet Our Nail Instructor, Jessica Alnaqeeb-Gonzalez

​Jessica started her career with Novalash, Inc., the first pioneers in the lash industry in America, prior to becoming the world-recognized leader in products and training. She was invited in 2006 to be Novalash’s Connecticut and Rhode Island lash educator. Her formal training was under Sophia Navarro in classic lash and volume lash extension. After nine exciting years of educating, she pivoted to focus on her business to master the art of mega volume and styling. With so many great lash products in the market, Jessica wanted to focus on training students in the areas most important in the lash industry and the art of application. In 2018, Jessica partnered with International Institute of Cosmetology in Connecticut, curating the eyelash extensive course curriculum for the school.

FAQs About Our Eyelash Technician Program
