Texas Cosmetology Eyelash Extension Specialist license lookup — free

A Cosmetology Eyelash Extension Specialist license — listed on TDLR's own program page as 'Eyelash Extension Specialty' — is held by lash technicians who apply eyelash extensions professionally in a salon or spa setting. It's one of the newer, more specialized license types under TDLR's unified Barbering & Cosmetology program, sitting alongside operators, manicurists, and estheticians under the same renewal system. Salons and clients use this license number to confirm a lash tech is actually authorized for the work, which involves close, repeated contact near a client's eyes. A lapsed license takes a lash tech out of legal service until it's renewed, regardless of how many appointments are on the books.

This license renews every two years and requires the same 4 hours of continuing education per cycle as the rest of the program — 1 hour sanitation, 1 hour human trafficking awareness, and 2 elective hours, reduced to 2 hours total once the license has been held 15 years or more. TDLR confirms its tiered late-renewal fee structure for the program's establishment license, but the specialist's own individual late fee isn't separately quoted on the agency's pages — check the official renewal page for the current dollar amount before assuming one. Once it lapses, the lash tech can't legally perform extensions again until the license is renewed.
