Overview

Eyelash Extension & Brow Services provide lash extensions, lash lifts, brow styling, threading, and microblading through specialty studios. It is a newer, fast-growing beauty niche where franchise and membership concepts (Amazing Lash Studio, Deka Lash) have driven rapid expansion of a previously cottage-industry service.

Recurring lash-fill appointments (every few weeks) create membership-friendly, subscription-like demand. The category is consolidating around franchise networks, though it remains small and fragmented overall.

No discrete Census NAICS code — lash and brow services are a newer niche within 'other personal care' services (812199), so the segment is not separately sized by the Census Bureau.
