A Lash Artist: A Work In Progress

Ever get lost about which career to take? Do you ever wonder if you want to follow a path that earns a lot of money? Or follow the path that gives contentment to your heart? Is being a lash artist worth it? The answer to these questions may differ from person to person but let me share some of my personal experiences.

I am one of them. My parents expected me to be up there, having a career like a doctor, a lawyer, or an engineer. However, I chose to be a Lash Artist and didn't make anyone impressed by my decision.

Many days I wonder if I'm good enough. Or why do people look up to me for inspiration? Some days, it's hard to inspire me to keep going, but I do. Despite the ups and downs, I always keep my head up and keep going because all that matters is that I am happy.

AN ARTIST INSIDE ME

I've been working up the courage to post something for a while. But the thoughts were like a tornado in my mind. People don't want to see that. How embarrassing. I have family and friends who follow me. What are you trying to accomplish?

A BIT OF SUNSHINE

I find myself talking to so many of you who compare yourselves to others, and it frustrates me because I want to shake it out of you that you are YOU and that your story is unique.

But then I find myself being down also and saying, "my client retention is not good enough. " Other lash artists seem to find the perfect home life balance and can accomplish so much more in short amounts of time. "My lash sets are still not perfect 100% of the time."

I get better every day. I am far from perfect, and so is my work, but that's ok because I try to be better for myself and my clients.
You are all these things, too, and you hold your own story. Your message is helping others, whatever the message you decide to share.

I may not be the person everyone expects me to be. But then, I became a person who follows my heart's desire, and I am grateful to people who show support for me all the way. To our lash community, follow your heart's desire.

CONCLUSION

Becoming a lash artist can be one of the most rewarding decisions you'll ever make. There's nothing quite like the skills you gain, the relationships you'll build, and the flexibility of running your own business.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE. WE'RE ALL ON THIS TOGETHER!
