Rickina Velte owner of The Lash CEO has become the local leader in the most natural and beautiful looking Nano Brows & Mircroblading eyebrows in Virginia Beach, and gorgeous 'wake up in makeup' eyelash extensions since 2014. The Lash & Brow Academy is a state licensed permanent makeup tattoo school focusing on the enhancement of eyebrows and eyelashes.  Rickina has invested in her Brow Artistry career with over 19 different brow training brands around the world, while investing over $90,000 in her ongoing education.  All to serve her students and clients from a place of passion, professionalism and joy!
 
The mission in launching the academy in Hampton Roads, VA is to more than adequately prepare our students for the rewarding yet challenging career in the eyelash and eyebrow industry. Our academy focuses on solid fundamentals so our permanent makeup students are prepared for state licensure, while giving them the complete picture to start their own business or become a valued team member in future endeavors. 

We believe a strong, financially rewarding career doesn't have to be a traditional
2 or 4 year degree. The lash and brow niche is one of the fastest growing fields in the beauty
industry, and since COVID has proven to be recession resistant.  Creating career satisfaction and above average income, for those who strive for success.
Our passion is to enrich the community with skilled fresh
talent that can thrive and become a success story for themselves and others, without going
into straining debt, or without years and years of schooling. 

We offer payment plans for the PMU Course  and the most
inclusive high end PMU student experience in Hampton Roads.

From paying for your state board exam , student class shirt 
and a professional student kit valued at  over $900  featuring
the industry's best products and supplies, Perma Blend and Tina Davies.  

We can't wait to meet you and open up a world of success for your future!
