When it comes to creating the perfect set of lashes, understanding the nuances of thickness is crucial. Here's a breakdown to guide you in making the best choice for your clients: Classic 0.12: These are the thinnest lashes we use. Ideal for a natural look or for clients with naturally thin or weak lashes. They add length without stress. Classic 0.15: These lashes are the standard go-to for most clients. They offer a middle ground, providing a noticeable yet natural enhancement. They're great for daily wear and can suit a range of natural lash types. Classic 0.18: These are the thickest lashes we use for a classic set. They create a more pronounced lash line, perfect for clients with stronger, healthier natural lashes who want a more dramatic look.   Now, let's decode the volume numbers: 16D 0.03: '16D' means 16 lashes are fanned out from one lash, and '0.03' refers to the diameter of each individual lash in the fan. This is a lighter volume set, giving a fuller look without the heaviness. 24D 0.03 / 36D 0.03: These are high-volume sets, with 24 or 36 ultra-fine lashes in a fan, creating a fluffy and dramatic effect. These are typically used on clients who want a glamorous, standout look and have the natural lash foundation to support it. 8D 0.05 / 10D 0.05 / 12D 0.05: These numbers indicate a moderate volume with a slightly thicker lash diameter. They provide a denser look while still maintaining a soft feel. 3D 0.07 / 4D 0.07 / 6D 0.07: These are the thickest lashes used in volume sets, creating a bold and striking effect. They're less in number but give a textured look due to their thickness.   The technical aspect lies in the balance between the diameter of the lash extension and the number of lashes in a fan. It's all about enhancing the client's natural lashes without causing damage. Remember, the key to a successful lash application is not just the aesthetic appeal but maintaining the integrity of the natural lashes.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   HOW MANY LASHES DO YOU NEED FOR A CLASSIC SET? Some lash artists count the lashes to give their clients an understanding and idea of what they will get—for example, applying 80-100 lashes per eye. Some lash artists prefer to time themselves; for example, a classic set typically lasts from 1h30 -2h for a complete set. A refill usually takes less time because we are refilling the lashes that have fallen off, not starting over from scratch.

Classic Lashes, Velour Lash Adhesive, Straight Isolation Tweezer, L Shape Tweezer, Lash Tape and Hydro Gel Under Eye Pads are used here. To shop, please click here. In the past, .25 diameters were used for classic lashes to give the lashes a fuller, denser look. Still, with innovations like pre-made fans and the technique of volume lashes that have become more sophisticated, there is no need to use 0.20 and 0.25 diameters as they are too heavy for the clients' natural lashes. Diameters of 0.10 are suitable for excellent and weak lashes, and for clients who like a natural look, 0.12 would also be a very natural and pleasing look. Diameters of 0.15 and 0.18 will be used for clients with relatively healthy lashes that want a complete full look.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.     CLASSIC LASHES: WHAT LENGTHS?

If your client's lashes in the inner corners are 6mm, the lash extensions should be 8mm. If the client's lashes in the middle of the eye are 12mm, the lash extensions should not be longer than 15mm.

For the right curl, we provide various lash curls and lengths. We want to educate each of you on the lash curls you can offer to your clients.    B LASH CURL This lash curl will give you the added lift while still staying fairly natural. Almost the same specification as the J curl. This has just a bit curlier. The result will still be a natural look. B curl is suitable for clients who want to look for something extra but still want to look natural.    C LASH CURL This lash curl is perhaps the most popular. It generally suits most clients because it provides the lift of a lash curler to open up the eyes. This is recommended on the slight curlier natural lash, and as a result, it will have a much stronger bond and lasting retention. The reason why most clients prefer this is as it is much curlier and it has popping effects. As for me, C curl is my go-to lashes. That is just so perfect to work with.  C curl is for your clients who are eyeing a dramatic look—added so much attitude to the look. It opens up the eyes. Well, C curl works best!   C+ LASH CURL C+ is much more curled than C, and it can also be called natural curl. It is suitable for absolutely everyone.   CC LASH CURL CC curl is our hybrid curl. It is an excellent mix between the C and D curls.    D LASH CURL D curl is used to create full dramatic looks with lashes. This curl is perfect for clients looking for more lifting and great to use with the doll eye mapping. This lash curl adds more lift than the C curl for added definition and sweep. This curl is not recommended for straight lashes and hooded eyes as it is a bit curly and might hurt your eyelids. The curliest and considered to be giving you that dramatic look. This curl would look better on the younger clients than the mature ones.    L LASH CURL The L curl has a straight bottom that transitions to and sits flat on the client's natural lash, ideal for moonlit eyes and clients with very sharp natural lashes. This lash curl is best for clients with straight lashes that tip downward. This curl gives you a dramatic effect that most clients adore. This lash curl is best for clients who have downturned eyelashes. L curl is also great for lifting those lashes and those with hooded eyes.   L+ LASH CURL This curl resembles the L curl with its sharp base but slightly curvier bend than the L curl.   M LASH CURL This curl is so new and exotic that clients are asking for it more and more. It emphasizes the client's eyes the perfect way if used correctly.  They are specially designed for an "OPEN EYE" look, with naturally straight and down. Clients with straight or downward-pointing natural lashes are ideal candidates for the M curl series.    J LASH CURL This curl is the most natural-looking, it's flat at the base, and the least curled of all the lash curls. The lash curl will lengthen your natural lashes but won't curl them significantly. This lash is perfect for individuals who want a more natural appearance. Because it looks too natural, it isn't used very often. It is recommended to be used on straight lashes to ensure longer retention. So, if your clients opt to have an eyelash extension that looks so natural, the J curl is for your girl.    For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.    CONCLUSION A classic eyelash extension is an excellent option if your client wants to add length, defined lash curls, and achieve a mascara look without applying it! Keep in mind that the size of the extensions should be no more than 2mm longer than the natural lashes of your clients. Once the application is finished, make sure they understand the importance of lash extension aftercare.   Do you find this blog post helpful? Have you learned something?

If you are a beginner lash artist and new to eyelash extensions, you should know that different terms are used for other lash techniques—classic, hybrid, and volume.When it comes to placement, each technique has in common is the isolation process. It is where you take one natural lash and attach it between your isolation tweezers so that your extension doesn't get stuck to other lashes when you place it. Lashes and Velour Lash Adhesive are used here. To shop, please click here.   CLASSIC looks simple and more natural. It is applied on a one-to-one ratio, which means that one lash extension is attached to one natural lash only. The lash application typically takes 1.5 to 2 hours. Classic lashes will not add much volume but will add length and provide an even lash line that opens up the eye. HYBRID combines classic lash extensions, which is 30%, and volume lash extensions which are 70%. Hybrid gives more texture and adds volume and length to your client's lashes, resulting in a wispy look without a full volume set appearance. VOLUME can vary from a natural look that adds volume and length to a dramatic and complete look. The lashes range in thickness from 2D to 6D, and anything higher than a 4D will make your client look like she's wearing strip lashes, which is the total opposite of the natural look that classic and hybrid extensions provide. The application is made with a lash fan (premade or promade) using a tweezer of your choice. Whether or not the lash artist uses premade fans, the process usually takes 2-4 hours.

The number of lashes used to create the fan and the diameter of the lashes differentiates mega volume from volume lashes. You will use 2 to 5 lashes with diameters from 0.05 to 0.07 mm for the volume fan. You will use 6 to 16 lash extensions with diameters from 0.03 to 0.05 mm for the mega volume fan.   HERE’S AN EXAMPLE   Lashes and Elite High Humidity Adhesive are used here. To shop, please click here.   Mega Volume 0.02 7-11mm D Curl and Optite Low Humidity Adhesive are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   VOLUME LASHES SIZE AND WEIGHT: HOW TO DETERMINE? The appropriate weight of a volume fan is managed by controlling two critical variables: How many eyelash extensions can be combined to make a lash fan? “D” stands for dimension The lash extensions length used to create a fan   A healthy natural lash can support a heavier volume fan than a thin natural lash. The health of the lashes should always come first. With 0.07 mm diameter extensions, you can create 3D volume fans With a 0.05 mm diameter, extensions can be used to create up to 7D volume fans With 0.03 mm diameter extensions, you can make up to 12D volume fans   The number of lashes used in a lash fan and it’s diameter have a negative relationship. For example, if the number of lashes increases, the diameter must decrease to keep the lash fan's weight constant. The number of lashes must decrease as the diameter increases.When comparing a volume fan to a single extension, negative space is the space that a single lash extension would otherwise occupy.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   VOLUME FAN NEGATIVE SPACE Compared to a single 0.15 mm extension, a volume fan made of three 0.07 mm extensions creates a lot of negative space (brown).

That is the reason why this volume fan isn't heavier.   Compared to a single 0.15 mm extension, a volume fan made of twelve 0.03 mm extensions creates a lot of negative space (brown). That is the reason why this volume fan isn't heavier.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   WHAT IS THE IDEAL THICKNESS FOR VOLUME LASH EXTENSIONS? Most lash artists prefer 0.07 to use. The majority of clients seeking a natural or glamorous application prefer a length of 12 mm. Volume Lashes, Ultra Crystal Bond, Marlowe Tweezer and Malachi Tweezer are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   HOW TO GET DENSITY WITHOUT DAMAGING THE NATURAL LASHES? The first thing you need to do is fill the mature lashes with volume lash fans that are the longest and heaviest, complementing the client's natural lashes.

C curl is the most widely used lash curl and is suitable for most clients.  CC curl is an excellent combination of the C and D curls.  D curl is used to achieve complete, dramatic looks. This curl is ideal for clients who want more lifting and works well with doll eye mapping. L curl has a straight base that transitions and lies flat on the client's natural lash. It is a great curl for moonlit eyes and clients with very straight natural lashes. L+ curl resembles the L curl with its strong base but slightly curvier bend than the L curl.   For more information on how to pick a lash curl for your clients, please click here.   VOLUME LASHES: HOW DO YOU APPLY?

If the client is prepared correctly, the application process will go smoothly. When you begin your lashing process, conduct a thorough consultation to determine the style, length, and thickness that your client prefers. Before applying eyelashes, remove eye makeup with a water-based cleaner and dry it with a lint-free cloth. A client with a clean face will give you more time to deal with their eyelashes. It is not recommended to curl eyelashes. It is better to work on the lashes while still in their natural condition. Contact lenses must be removed during lash application to avoid discomfort and eye damage. Drinking liquids containing caffeine can cause eyelids to move, making it challenging to apply eyelashes. Excessive eye movement can lead to incorrect extensions. Limit the intake of liquids. It is advised that clients do not use the restroom frequently. Before the eyelash appointment, ask questions about your clients' allergies. In addition, for the client's safety, it is best to have them sign a waiver during the consultation. (if needed) While having a relaxing appointment, they can listen to music or a podcast. To avoid distraction and reading text messages, they must put their phone in silent mode. For the safety of every client, they should keep their eyes closed throughout the session. A fill session lasts about 40 minutes to an hour, while a full-extension process takes 2 to 3 hours. Inform your clients that they should wear comfortable clothing for the relaxing session.

If put on correctly and professionally, lash extensions will not damage your natural lashes. Always ensure that you are getting your extensions done by a certified and experienced lash artist.

Here are three expert tips to ensure you achieve the perfect look every time. Opt for Dark Brown and Brown Lashes: While black lashes are a popular choice, they can sometimes appear too harsh against the light background of blonde lashes. Instead, consider using dark brown or brown lashes. They offer a softer, more natural look while still giving the desired definition and depth. Use Black Patches: Black patches can help to contrast and mask the lighter base of blonde lashes, making it easier for you to see and work on the lashes. This will also provide a clear background, helping you to ensure that every lash gets the attention it deserves. Place Extensions Closer to the Eyelid: One common challenge with blonde lashes is the possibility of light lashes peeking through beneath the extensions. To prevent this, ensure that you place the extensions closer to the eyelid. This method not only masks the natural lash more effectively but also gives a fuller appearance. Hydro-Gel Under Eye Patches is used here. To shop, please click here.    HOW DO YOU REMOVE THE EYELASH EXTENSIONS SAFELY AND CORRECTLY?

Within 4-6 hours of lash application, no saunas, facials, or going to the pool for swimming. If you are baking, avoid sticking your head into the oven. It can singe your extensions!

Ensure that the patches you apply stick very well to the client's skin.  Lash Foam is used in this set.

Keep a distance of at least 2-3mm between the pads and the client's waterline. Some lash pads tend to expand or "melt when exposed to moisture and heated." You must always keep the pad 2-3 mm away from the waterline to avoid this. Micro Foam Under Eye Patches is used in this set. To shop, please click here.   TIP #4 SECURE THE PATCHES PROPERLY ( if needed ) To keep down any extra lashes that may come out, apply two strips of micropore tape about an inch and a half long down the lash line. When your client closes their eyes, ask if they feel any pinching or discomfort. Then, with their eyes closed, gently tug the tape and pads to adjust, ensuring their comfort is taken into account.

Make sure you are holding the lashes as you pull the tape off because you don't want to pull off your client's lashes that you just did.

It has a similar form to the under-eye area and a good hold on the bottom lashes. It allows every lash artist to quickly grasp the inner and outer corners of the bottom lashes. The under-eye patches should be light in color to see the lashes.

Gel under eye patches and breathable tape are used in this set. To shop, please click here.     HOW TO APPLY UNDER-EYE PATCHES FOR EYELASH EXTENSIONS? Use lash foam shampoo that has a gentle cleansing formula that removes eye makeup and impurities from lashes to clean and dry your client's eye area, especially if the client has oily skin since the lashes will not adhere properly. Remove the lash patches from the plastic gently. Make sure that when you apply it to the top of the lower lashes, there is no contact with your client's eye or in the waterline. When the lash extension application process is finished, gently remove the patches from the outside corner area. Hydro-Gel Under Eye Patches and Breathable Tape are used in this set.

I love using lash tape because it works well to secure short and fine bottom lashes that point upwards. It also helps press down puffy under eyes or high cheekbones. Cut about 1.5 inches. Start with the outer corners and place the lash tape along the line while avoiding the waterline. You'll do the same on the inner corners to form an "X." Once your client's eyes are closed, make sure to check that all the lashes are secured and that the tape isn't riding up to the waterline. If it is, adjust it gently. TIP: You can use a sensitive tape that's flexible to wrap comfortably around the under eyes. It should have the perfect amount of stickiness while being gentle enough to be pain-free while removing.   Lash taping technique for working with bottom layer.

Eyelash extension tape is excellent for multi-purpose use during the lash extension procedure. You can use it under the eye instead of gel patches and on the top of the eyelid to lift the lid and natural lashes. There are three considerations to consider while deciding which tape to use: Client sensitivity (any allergies to latex, gel?) Skin Type (oily skin, dry skin, any medical conditions affecting the skin?) Eye shape (what kinds of eyes does the client have? almond-shaped or oval-shaped?)   How to prevent red eyes from lash extensions? Preventing red eyes after a lash appointment starts with proper taping techniques. Use paper tape and place it as close to the lash line as possible without touching the wet line. This keeps the lower lashes securely in place while protecting the delicate skin from adhesive fumes. Be gentle when applying and removing the tape to avoid irritation. Always double-check that the tape is smooth and not pulling on the skin or lashes. Following these steps helps create a comfortable experience for your client and prevents redness or irritation after the session.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.     CONCLUSION Every lash artist's best friend is lash extension tape, which can be used to fix bottom lashes and calm twitching clients' eyes.

What are premade lash fans? What are promade fans? Are both the same? What makes them different? Are premade fans bad? Is there a significant difference between creating your fans and buying them already made? As a lash artist, one of the most common questions I encounter is about the difference between premades and promades volume lash fans. It's an understandable query considering the swirl of misinformation and misconceptions that often surround these two terms in the industry. However, the truth is quite simple: premades and promades are THE SAME in today's lash industry. In this blog, let me answer all your questions and discuss all the information you need to know about these lash fans.

Firstly, whether they come on strips or loose, premades and promades are manufactured in EXACTLY THE SAME WAY! Promade Fans, Lash Wisps, Velour Lash Adhesive, Incredible Retention Primer and Super Bonder are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   There have been misconceptions surrounding the manufacturing process of premade fans and promade fans. Some mistakenly believe that premade fans are entirely machine-made, while promade fans are handmade. However, this is not the case. Both types of fans are made by hand, using tools and meticulous techniques. The only machine involved in the process is an oven, which is used for curling the lashes. While there may be differences in packaging and presentation, it is important to note that premade fans and promade fans are manufactured using identical techniques. Both types of fans are created by lash professionals or manufacturers who handcraft the fans using specialized tools. The objective is to achieve a fanned-out appearance with precise separation and uniformity. If you purchase from a lash brand and find that their premade or promade fans have pinch slim bases, that's an indication of the latest generation of manufacturing techniques.  For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   THE CREATION PROCESS: STRIPS OR LOOSE? Whether you're purchasing premade fans or promade fans, both types initially begin on a strip. This strip serves as the foundation for creating beautiful, voluminous lash fans. It provides a convenient base for lash artists during the manufacturing and application process. Promade Fans, Neon Color Lashes, Ultra Crystal Clear Bond, Incredible Retention Primer and Super Bonder are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   When deciding between premade and promade fans, it's crucial to consider your personal preference and the specific needs of your clients. Premade fans on strips offer convenience during application, allowing you to pick up and apply multiple fans simultaneously. Promade fans, on the other hand, provide flexibility and customization, as you can select the exact number of fans for achieving the desired volume (more options). The claim that one type is handmade while the other is machine-made is simply not accurate. The reality is that both premades and promades volume fans are identical in the way they are created.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   HERE'S A VISUAL SHEET Before applying the fan to each lash, you must carefully determine the extension diameter, length, and weight.   To balance the weight of the extensions on the natural lash while maintaining the entire, complete set look, you'll need perfect control over your fans. Handmade volume fans are the most effective way to personalize each set for your clients, even if it isn't the easiest suitable option. Promade lashes can save you time and energy, allowing you to focus on booking more clients and growing your business. Keep in mind that they may be more costly than making your own. Take the time to develop your craft, whatever path you pick. It doesn't matter which approach you use if you don't have strong technique and adhesive control. Premade lash fans, on the other hand, have few customization options. Ranging from 2D-10D in C and D curl exclusively. They cannot adapt to varying lash textures, lengths, or strengths. Furthermore, unlike when constructing their own, the artist has no control over the lash base of the fan.  After the volume fan is dipped in adhesive a second time (the weight will be increasing), with premade fans, the "wrap" of the glue and the bases of each extension around the natural lash are more complicated   PRO TIP: If you want to improve lash retention, it is advisable to apply the made fans from the bottom or from the side of the client's natural lash. It has been proven the most effective in client retention. Pro-made Loose Single Lashes, Bio Gel Eye Patches, Velour Lash Adhesive, Incredible Retention Primer, Dolphin-Shaped Curved Tweezer, L Shape Tweezer and Super Bonder are used in this set.

They can either be created by a lash artist before the client's appointment or stored to use during the lash appointment. The alternative is buying pro-made fans already made. Similarly, in size, pro-made fans purchased in bulk are made by lash artists in bulk. Organized Pro-made Fans, Optite Low Humidity Adhesive, Super Bonder and Lash Wisps are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   Pro-made fans can also be made during the lash appointment and applied to the client's lashes. It is a great way to practice as well, but it doesn't allow to save much time since the process of making lash fans is time-consuming. Handmade fans are creative by pulling a few extensions from the strip, fanning them according to the lash artist's liking, dipping them in glue, and placing them on the client's natural lash, resulting in a solid connection.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF PROMADE FANS? Advantages of using promade volume lash fans: If you prepare your lash fans ahead of time, you can save time during your appointment. A high client turnover rate means more bookings each day. The lash wrapping technique can still be used because of the sharp pointy bases, allowing for excellent lash retention. Clients love fast service. They value their time and greatly appreciate quicker service if the quality is not compromised. There's no need for lash volume training. Compared to the classic set, the volume set provides a higher gross profit. Organized Pro-made Wispy Lashes, Noir Fiber Tip Collection Precision Curved Tweezer, Magnetic Lash Tile, Bio Gel Eye Patches, Velour Lash Adhesive, Incredible Retention Primer, and Super Bonder are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   Disadvantages of using promade volume lash fans: A tray of pro-made fans is more expensive than a tray of volume lashes. It is due to the work and labor to develop the product. Since the lash fans come loose in a package, there is some time required to place them on a sticky pad to make usage as comfortable as possible for the artist.

They provide new lash artists with quick assistance and act as a bridge as the artists develop their lash techniques.

Here are a variety of best promade lash fans to choose from: PRO-MADE FANS SINGLE LENGTH To arrange the loose fans: Use a silicone pad (put them one by one). Take one fan at a time, coat it with adhesive, and place it on your client's natural lashes. For best retention, put it at the bottom or side of the natural lash.     PRO-MADE FANS MIX LENGTH  The least expensive way to practice various lengths is using mixed loose fans!   PRO-MADE ORGANIZED FANS Organized pro-made volume fans are a new product in the market that will cut the time you spend making fans in half.   PRO-MADE FANS XL BOXES Since they are handmade by lash artists, just like the loose promade fans, and are also perfectly arranged, just like the premade fans on a strip, they are the ideal blend of premade and pro-mades.    For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   HOW DO YOU STORE YOUR PROMADE FANS? The best way to store your fans is to use an empty container. When they're dry, you just place them in there. If you're making multiple lash fans, make sure that you label them according to their curl, diameter, or length. In placing them, don't worry. It's not going to hurt your fans if they overlap because you just pick it up, and they're ready for you to use. Pro-made Loose Single Lashes, Bio Gel Eye Patches, Velour Lash Adhesive, Incredible Retention Primer, Nude 90 Degree Isolation Lash Extension Tweezer, and Super Bonder are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   REMEMBER: If you put too much glue, the base of the lash fan will be too thick and can be too heavy for the client's natural lash. Try to remember that you will need to dip the fan again into the adhesive when applying the extension to the client's natural lashes. Whenever you make them, don't use a lot of glue at all. It would help if you used only enough adhesive to hold the fan together.   PRO TIP: Another way to store your fans is by using double-sided tape. Place the double-sided tape on the lash tray (either do it in a row style or a bit smaller across). Grab the one you made and place it inside. When you put on the tape, it's not hard to take them off, and it doesn't ruin the lash fans. Ideally, you should remove the pro-made fans from the sticky tape the same way you would with Premade fans. Remove them by the base of the fan, upwards towards yourself. Pomade Loose Fans Mix Length and Silicone Eyelash Holder Pad are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   The added benefit of storing promade fans is that you will not waste your precious lash supplies. Many lash artists throw out the fans they made while practicing. A much better way to save money is to keep them, store them, and use them on a client. As a beginner in fan making, your initial lash fans won't necessarily be acceptable, but they will be good to use on clients after a bit of practice. Therefore there's no reason to throw them out.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   BEST VOLUME LASH FANS: HOW TO CHOOSE?

Here are some things to consider when choosing the best lash chair for your needs:   COLOR AND DESIGN Whether you believe it or not, the way you decorate your eyelash studio has a significant impact on how your clients judge the quality of your lash service. One of the first things they'll notice is the type of seats you choose.These eyelash chairs should be an excellent match for the studio's overall design style. Don't pick colors or styles that clash with the rest of the room's decor. The most frequent tones that readily incorporate the variety of lash chairs into the area of an eyelash studio are white, black, and neutral colors.   EASY HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT There should be a height adjustment option. During the eyelash extensions process, you may easily alter the chair height to meet a range of design preferences.Meanwhile, the best stool chairs for lash artists should have solid rolling caster wheels that allow for 360-degree swiveling and freedom of movement on the floor. Any eyelash technician should have no difficulty shifting and adjusting their height in serving their clients.   WARRANTY OF THE LASH CHAIR Always check the warranty with the suppliers, regardless of what you buy. The lash chair or lash stool isn't much different. It would help if you made sure that the chairs and stools you buy come with a warranty from the supplier and that the warranty is clear about how long it will last.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   TOP 8 BEST-SELLING LASH CHAIRS AND LASH STOOLS FOR LASH ARTISTS Lash chairs are super important for lash artists; they're the number one tool in your salon.

Adjustable Features: Height and backrest adjustability allow for a customized fit for comfort and posture. Mobility: The chair has wheels, making it easy to move around the workspace. Sturdy Construction: It appears to have a solid base, which is essential for stability during lash applications.

The ideal posture for eyelash extension application: The adjustable stool and lashing bed need the height that permits you to sit straight up with both feet on the floor. Place your feet on either side of the lash bed, straddling the bed while performing the lash service. L Curl Lashes, Ultra Crystal Bond, Marlowe Tweezer and Malachi Tweezer are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   TIP #1 Get as near to your lash bed as possible. Place your back on the stool's backrest and turn on the lights.Sit as near to the head of the bed and the head of the client as possible.   TIP #2 It would help if you had a stool and massage bed that adjusts the height.Your breast level is the high level you want to be in the stool (tweezers and client lashes). Check to see if your shoulders are relaxed and not tense. Some beginners hunch because they want to see the fine lashes. So, to maintain good posture, I recommend that you use magnifying glasses. Hunching is the first reason you get tired and burnt out quickly and can cause muscle tension.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   WHAT ARE THE BAD EFFECTS OF SLOUCHING? Proper posture for lash extensions is essential when we are performing our job. Slouching can cause lasting pain and injuries that hinder you from doing what you love.

Poor posture can also contribute to the following: Poor Circulation Negative Mood Increased Stress Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Less Motivation Poor Digestion Fatigue   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   THE BOTTOM LINE All-day, lash artists and lash technicians are in the business of looking after others. However, because of poor ergonomics and long hours, lashing may cause irreversible damage to their bodies. Sit with a comfortable chair stool as a lash technician to avoid back and shoulder strain and carpal tunnel syndrome. The best eyelash chair ensures that lash artists maintain proper posture and that the client's head is at chest level. Second, the best chair for eyelash technicians allows them to keep their feet flat on the floor by allowing them to modify the height of the chair.All the lash chairs and lash stools mentioned above are worth purchasing to minimize back discomfort, improve posture, and strengthen your core.   Leave a comment and let me know if what type of lash chair you will be using for eyelash extensions. Do you find this blog helpful?

Eyelash Extension Techniques For Lash Artist: Learn what are the common lash problems and correct eyelash extension techniques that will help you fix them.

Eyelash extension application techniques? Lash extension tips for beginners? How do I get better at eyelash extensions? Lash artists need a variety of awesome application techniques to do what they do best. If you are a professional, you know your techniques' importance. I've recently had more people come to me desperate for help with their eyelash extension set. It is why going to a qualified lash artist is essential. Here are the common lash problems I've seen and some eyelash extension techniques that will help you fix them. Volume Lashes mix curls D, CC, and C, Velour Lash Adhesive are used in this set.

So remember, communication is vital; never be afraid to ask your clients questions to make them feel more comfortable and confident during the service. That way, your experience as a lash artist will become more rewarding, while your client's personal experience will be positively impacted.   1. HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR BOTTOM LASHES DOWN? THE PROBLEM: Anchoring bottom lashes, whether with lash tape, gel patches, or another way, is one of the most crucial aspects of lash service safety. THE SOLUTION: If the lashes become unanchored, it's essential to stop your process to anchor them back down. Turn on a fan to ensure that your client's eyelashes are completely dry, as you may need them to open their eyes. Don't try to reuse what's not working. Please proceed with your lash service after replacing it with a new secure attachment. Hydro-gel Under Eye Patches and Lash Tape are used in this set.

THE PROBLEM: You may see a lash sticking to the bottom of the lashes at the end of a lash session. It can happen even if you were very careful during setup. One of the main reasons is the extension isn't being placed right. THE SOLUTION: Make sure the root of the extensions is placed right on the top of the root of the natural eyelash, and make sure it's glued right. It can also happen if the extension has grown out. To unstick, gently pull eyelashes apart. They should separate most of the time. If not, gently separate the lashes with the client's eyes closed. Take a deep breath and move slowly. There is no need to rush. Your positive energy will also help the client relax.   Volume Lashes mix curls D, CC, and C, Velour Lash Adhesive, Disposable Eyelash Brush, Hydrogel Under Eye Patches and Lash Tape are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   3. HOW TO FIX TWISTED EYELASH EXTENSIONS? THE PROBLEM: It's most likely due to a lack of isolation. Isolation is one of the most challenging skills to learn when you first start, so it's no surprise that this is a typical issue. Before moving on to advanced techniques, inexperienced lash techs should understand essential isolation. THE SOLUTION: It is a prior lash artist's error, not the client's. If the eyelash extensions are becoming tangled, you'll probably want to scale back their length. It's always better to start over! You'll probably want to start over after removing all of the knotted and twisted lashes.Remember to isolate properly, so multiple lashes don't become adhered. Use the 90-degree angle rule when it's time to restyle the lashes—placed at a 90-degree angle. Focus on securing the eyelash extension to the lash's base. Remember, you don't always have to follow the growth pattern of the natural lash. Sometimes natural lashes can grow in different directions. Working back and forth between the eyes will allow the lash adhesive to set. It will prevent eyelashes from sticking together as you sift through, looking for natural lashes around the area you just lashed. Volume Lashes mix curls D, CC, and C, Velour Lash Adhesive and Silicon Brush are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   4. EYELASH EXTENSION ALLERGIC REACTION REMEDIES THE PROBLEM: Irritation or allergies! It's critical to pinpoint the source of the problem. Once the allergen is removed, the redness and swelling caused by the allergy will disappear. A variety of factors can cause a client to develop an allergy. If an allergy develops within the first 24-48 hours, it's usually due to an allergic reaction to the adhesive. THE SOLUTION: Although a lash artist is not a doctor, you could advise the client to take Benadryl or apply a warm compress to reduce swelling. If you attempt to remove the lashes while the client is experiencing redness and swelling, the chemical removal solution may irritate the client further, causing further harm. L Curl Lashes, Ultra Crystal Bond, Super Bonder and Incredible Retention Primer are used in this set.

THE PROBLEM: A client's natural lashes may be damaged for a variety of causes. If they've previously had lash extensions, it's possible that the lash artist overstressed the lash line by utilizing the wrong size or thickness of extension. THE SOLUTION: The key to having beautiful lash extensions has a solid base. If your client's natural lashes aren't healthy, eyelash extensions are unlikely to work. You can use lash growth serum for your clients and retail it to your clients. It's a win-win situation for everyone. You'll be able to sell things to your clients, and they will have beautiful, healthy lashes after.

WHY ARE MY CLIENT'S LASHES NOT LASTING? THE PROBLEM: When it comes to an understanding ourselves and our behaviors clearly, it frequently takes someone watching us go through our routines to pinpoint the root of the problem. Nothing beats investing in quality education and a mentor to resolve this problem. One of the main reasons for this is you are using the incorrect adhesive for your speed and environment. THE SOLUTION: If the adhesive dries too quickly, it will set before a proper bond can form with the client's natural lash, which means poor retention. When the lash is off balance or not attached solidly at the bottom, I recommend peeling it off the natural hair and trying again. Do not try to add adhesive or another lash to make it better because this is unsafe. Gel remover should only be the last option to avoid getting remover all over your lashes.

Like anything else, you need to do the work, whether reading many books, watching online tutorials, or taking some courses. Get as much hands-on experience as you canI believe every lash artist should just practice, practice, practice. This will give you the best chance at perfection and not ripping the client's eyelashes.

This blog will learn what you should look for in a lash bed, the best place to buy from, and descriptions of each lash bed and lash recliner.Since all of the details about lash beds are in one place, I always chose Amazon as the final shopping destination. They also have a lot of feedback and questions about the beds, which I might sort through to help me decide which ones are the best. The exciting reality is that more salon and spa suppliers are selling on Amazon because of the ease of delivery and the large number of customers who have moved from purchasing eyelash extension supplies from their usual supplier to Amazon.   WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A LASH BED? Let's face it — asking this question doesn't begin to scratch the surface of what matters. Many different factors should be considered when making your choice because we all want quality products at an affordable price. That said, we've put together a list of those things that may help you decide which lash bed is most appealing to you. Lash Bed Mattress and Shelf Organizer are used here.

It would help if you struck a balance between a comfortable height for your client and a comfortable height for yourself.   2. WHAT AM I USING IT? The versatility of these beds is surprising, so they are one of the most valuable pieces of equipment for lash extensions.   3. CAN IT BE CLEANED EASILY? Make sure you buy a lash bed to use the proper sanitation products! You can get a vinyl cover for a low price to protect your original tablecloth from wearing out and tear from cleaning and use.   4. IS IT POSSIBLE TO REPLACE PARTS QUICKLY? Things break, and it's good to be able to purchase replacement parts for your lash bed.   5. HOW IS THE SHIPPING? Have you ever purchased something on the website and had to pay a high amount of shipping fee? One of the reasons I purchase so much from Amazon is that the delivery is usually really upfront and most items are returnable. Also, some companies won't ship to PO boxes. You might also be required to pick up the item at a drop point if the thing is large enough.   6. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST, AND WHAT IS YOUR BUDGET? Keep in mind that this could be a tax write-off depending on where you live! (save the detailed receipts) And always check the warranty.   7. ARE YOUR CLIENTS COMFORTABLE WITH IT? It would help ensure that your clients are comfortable with your lash beds. Sometimes buying lash pillows can be a quick fix.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.    WHICH LASH BED SHOULD YOU CHOOSE?

Before you begin, it's crucial to consider various factors such as eye shape, angle, spacing, face shape, and even the direction and curl of the natural lashes.   ANGLE OF THE EYES Take note of your client's eye angle, as it determines the positioning and direction of lash extensions. Eyes can be slightly upturned, slightly downturned or straight. Adjusting the lash placement based on the eye angle will create a harmonious and balanced look.   SHAPE OF THE EYES Understanding your client's eye shape is fundamental for creating a lash set that enhances their natural features. Recognize whether their eyes are almond, round, hooded, or monolid, as each shape requires different lash placement techniques to achieve the desired effect.   SPACING OF THE EYES When it comes to eye spacing, ideally, there should be approximately one eye's width between each eye for a balanced look. If the eyes are closer together than one eye-width, they are considered close-set or narrow-set, while eyes that have more than one eye width between them are classified as wide-set. This assessment helps in determining lash lengths and placement to achieve balance and symmetry.   SHAPE OF THE FACE Consider your client's face shape when planning the lash set. For wider faces, more dramatic lash looks can be carried off effectively, while very narrow faces may appear overwhelmed by overly long lashes or wide cat-eye styles. Tailor the lash set to complement and harmonize with their unique facial structure.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   SECRETS BEHIND THE MOST POPULAR LASH STYLES When we talk about your clients' eyes, eyelash extensions have made a big difference.

First, let's determine their eye shape:Determine if your client's eyelid has a crease. If the upper eyelid is smooth, your client has a monolid, considered a primary eye shape. Look at the outer corners of your client's eyes and imagine a straight, horizontal line extending from the outer corner to your client's pupil. If the line is above their pupil, your client has upturned eyes, and if the line is below their pupil, your client has downturned eyes, both of which are considered basic eye shapes. Once you have determined the eye shape of your client, it's time to consider what type of mapping will compliment their eyes.   It's important to know which shape will best suit their eyes. Here are some guidelines: Close set eyes can be enhanced with cat and squirrel lash lashes. These styles give your client a natural look while adding volume and length to their lashes.Wide set eyes work well with dolly and squirrel lashes. This gives them a more dramatic look without being too overpowering.Protruding eyes should be enhanced with squirrel and cat lashes. The drama of these lash styles will balance out the protruding effect of the eye shape.Round eyes are best suited for squirrel and cat lashes. These styles are often more delicate and look best on square faces too!Monolid eyes can work well with either natural, squirrel, or dolly lashes. Both styles will enhance the eye shape, so it's up to you as the lash artist to decide which type of lash looks best with your client's facial features.For almond-shaped eyes, natural, squirrel, and dolly lashes all work well. Depending on how deep your client's eye sockets are, you might want to go with a fuller style like natural or squirrel lashes—or even a thick set of cat eyelashes!If your client has upturned eyes, you'll want to choose a lash style that will bring out the natural beauty of their eyes. Natural lash styles are great for this, as they look very natural and help to highlight the color and shape of the eye. Cat lashes are also a good choice, as they give a more dramatic look than natural ones but retain some of their softness.If you're working with clients with downturned eyes, you'll want to focus more on bringing out the shape of their eyes. Squirrel lashes are great for this, as they help to create a more dramatic appearance and give an illusion of depth in the eye socket—this can be helpful for clients with smaller eyes or dark skin tones. You can also use cat lashes to bring out this effect even further or dolly lashes if your client has larger eyes or lighter skin tones!   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   The shape of your client's face can significantly impact what kind of lashes suit them best Here's how to tell which style will look best on your face: Let's start with the oval. Oval-shaped faces are very natural, so it's important to keep the look that way by going for a natural lash style like a squirrel. Squirrel lashes also add a lot of length and volume to your client's lashes, which is perfect for an oval face shape because it will make the eyes appear bigger and more open. If your client wants something more dramatic-looking, they should go with a dolly!Next up, we have hearts. Your client can choose between natural or squirrel. If they want something subtle but still noticeable, go with a squirrel!Round: Round face shapes are the most common face shape and are best suited for natural lash style. The round shape is wide at the cheekbones and narrows toward the chin. Round faces often have a full or rounded jawline and eyes that are close together. They can look like they have big eyes because the cheeks are so high. Lashes that are too long can make the eyes look smaller.Round faces with short eyelashes should try a more natural style like a dolly or soft curls to balance out their features. They should avoid lash styles that are too dramatic or have a lot of volume because they will make it harder for them to open their eyes wide enough!Square: Square face shapes are angular faces. They tend to be slim but have broad foreheads and narrow chins, making it hard for them to show off their features! Squares can pull off any style of lashes, but they would do well with a more dramatic style like the cat eye or squirrel! Spikes can also work on square faces because they draw attention back toward the eyes!Diamond-shaped faces are perfect for natural lashes. This shape is characterized by its sharp angle at the cheekbones, which means that a dolly lash style would look perfect on a diamond face. The dolly style has a slight curve in the middle, which makes it ideal for those with smaller eyes.Long faces are perfect for cat and squirrel lash styles. This face shape is characterized by having a longer length than width, so they should avoid styles with an elongated curl or length—this will make their eyes appear even longer! Instead, they should choose styles with more volume, or like cat or squirrel.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT LASH MAPPING STYLES WITH PICTURES?

This helps ensure that the lashes are placed in a way that will look natural, so your clients will love them!   COMMON LASH MAPPING MISTAKES AND HOW TO FIX THEM When you want your clients' eyelashes to look really nice, lash mapping is like a special tool you can use. It helps you figure out where to put the lash extensions so their eyes look amazing. But, sometimes, things don't go perfectly. No need to be upset! In this part, we'll discuss mistakes that often happen with lash mapping and teach you how to fix them.   DOWNWARD FACING EYES Downward-facing eyes tend to look droopy if they are styled incorrectly. There are some contraindications for clients with this type of eye shape. You want to avoid the squirrel mapping since it will make the eyes look droopy like sad puppy dog eyes. We want to avoid this at all costs.   Try this mapping to elevate the client's eye and correct the visual dropping effect. This is great for clients that need an extra lifting effect.   LASH EXTENSIONS FOR HOODED EYES Every eye shape demands a tailored approach to lash extensions, and hooded eyes require special attention. With a distinctive fold of skin partially covering the eyelid, lash styling for hooded eyes can be challenging. We'll explore some key mistakes to avoid, ensuring that your clients with hooded eyes leave with breathtaking lashes.   AVOID OVERLY NATURAL CURLS Steer clear of curls, such as B and C, that provide minimal lift and fail to impact hooded eyes.   MIND THE LENGTH The right lash length is crucial for hooded eyes. Short lengths, ranging from 6mm to 11mm, may get lost within the hooded fold and go unnoticed. Classic Lashes, Elite High Humidity Adhesive, Incredible Retention Primer and Super Bonder are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   STRIVE FOR APPROPRIATE MAPPING Mapping is vital in determining lash placement. Strike a balance between a natural look and providing lift for hooded eyes. Avoid overly natural mapping, as it may yield underwhelming results. Focus on mapping techniques that emphasize the client's natural eye shape and provide lift. Consider incorporating longer lashes towards the outer corners or creating a subtle cat-eye effect, enhancing the eye's shape and lifting the hooded area. Classic Lashes, Velour Lash Adhesive, Lash Tape and Gel Under Eye Patches are used here. To shop, please click here.   Mastering lash extensions for hooded eyes requires attention to detail and skill. By avoiding common mistakes like using overly natural curls, choosing inadequate lengths, and employing underwhelming mapping techniques, you can ensure that your clients with hooded eyes leave your studio feeling confident and thrilled with their lash extensions.   HOW TO WORK WITH A CLIENT WHOSE EYES ARE FAR APART? Avoid cat-eye and squirrel mapping since it will emphasize the distance between the two eyes, making them look further apart. Avoid long lengths and strong curls like D DD, L, and M on the outer corners, emphasizing the outer corners. Pick dolly eye mapping and or a natural mapping to remove the emphasis on the outer corner of the client's eye and improve focus on the inner corner by filling in the inner corners. Fill in the inner corners well, emphasizing the eyes are coming closer together and looking more balanced. Experiment with colors as this will emphasize the client's eyes and remove the emphasis on the eyes looking not balanced.   Ultra Crystal Clear Bond used in this set.

However, even experienced artists can sometimes make mistakes in their mapping techniques   LET'S ASSESS THIS IMAGE: This image shows us why mapping is so essential. On the left, we did a Cat eye mapping, and it emphasized the eye facing downwards. Additionally, we used lengths 8-15mm C curl, which was too long, way too h, which looked really "droopy "and made the client's eye look very sad. ( puppy dog eyes ). The mistakes made here were: wrong mapping, wrong length, and possibly wrong curl.The right eye is what the client's eye would have looked like with the correct mapping "the doll eye would have been ideal and much more complementary for this client. "Additionally, shorter lengths 7-12mm, would have decreased the dropping of the lashes. A lifting curl would have been great, such as an M curl or L curl.This type of mapping places most of the emphasis on the eye's middle and away from the outer corners, elevating the eye, instead of making it appear droopy.     For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF LASH CURLS? For the right curl, we provide various lash curls and lengths. We want to educate each of you on the lash curls you can offer to your clients.    B LASH CURL This lash curl will give you the added lift while still staying fairly natural. Almost the same specification as the J curl. This has just a bit curlier. The result will still be a natural look. B curl is suitable for clients who want to look for something extra but still want to look natural.    C LASH CURL This lash curl is perhaps the most popular. It generally suits most clients because it provides the lift of a lash curler to open up the eyes. This is recommended on the slight curlier natural lash, and as a result, it will have a much stronger bond and lasting retention. The reason why most clients prefer this is as it is much curlier and it has popping effects. As for me, C curl is my go-to lashes. That is just so perfect to work with.  C curl is for your clients who are eyeing a dramatic look—added so much attitude to the look. It opens up the eyes. Well, C curl works best!   C+ LASH CURL C+ is much more curled than C, and it can also be called natural curl. It is suitable for absolutely everyone.   CC LASH CURL CC curl is our hybrid curl. It is an excellent mix between the C and D curls.    D LASH CURL D curl is used to create full dramatic looks with lashes. This curl is perfect for clients looking for more lifting and great to use with the doll eye mapping. This lash curl adds more lift than the C curl for added definition and sweep. This curl is not recommended for straight lashes and hooded eyes as it is a bit curly and might hurt your eyelids. The curliest and considered to be giving you that dramatic look. This curl would look better on the younger clients than the mature ones.    L LASH CURL The L curl has a straight bottom that transitions to and sits flat on the client's natural lash, ideal for moonlit eyes and clients with very sharp natural lashes. This lash curl is best for clients with straight lashes that tip downward. This curl gives you a dramatic effect that most clients adore. This lash curl is best for clients who have downturned eyelashes. L curl is also great for lifting those lashes and those with hooded eyes.   L+ LASH CURL This curl resembles the L curl with its sharp base but slightly curvier bend than the L curl.   M LASH CURL This curl is so new and exotic that clients are asking for it more and more. It emphasizes the client's eyes the perfect way if used correctly.  They are specially designed for an "OPEN EYE" look, with naturally straight and down. Clients with straight or downward-pointing natural lashes are ideal candidates for the M curl series.    J LASH CURL This curl is the most natural-looking, it's flat at the base, and the least curled of all the lash curls. The lash curl will lengthen your natural lashes but won't curl them significantly. This lash is perfect for individuals who want a more natural appearance. Because it looks too natural, it isn't used very often. It is recommended to be used on straight lashes to ensure longer retention. So, if your clients opt to have an eyelash extension that looks so natural, the J curl is for your girl.    For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   BONUS LASH TECHNIQUES AND LASH MAPPING Natural-looking lash style is the perfect choice for those who love their lashes to look like they were just born that way—no drama, no fuss, just beautiful, fluttery lashes that look like you woke up with them.If your client prefers some more drama, opt for the Fox style. These lashes are more dramatic than the classic option but have a natural look. They're perfect for someone who wants a little extra length and volume.The Squirrel lash style is excellent if you want long lashes that add volume without being too much or too obvious. These lashes are perfect for someone who wants to keep her makeup simple but wants her eyes to stand out.      Doll eye lash mapping is a way to make your clients lashes look like a doll's eyes. With this style, longer lashes are put in the middle of the eye, making them seem bigger and rounder. The lashes get shorter towards the sides of the eyes. This technique tries to make a person look cute and innocent, like a doll. Many client like this style if they want their eyes to look sweet and charming. One of the most common lash styles is Kim K. To achieve the Kim K look, spikes or the longer lengths are placed in different eye parts to produce a wispy set. Clients with Round and Almond eyes are both perfect for this lash style.   CONCLUSION Specific eye shapes and features will appear very differently on each client. There is no one-size-fits-all situation. Being a lash artist truly is an art. Lash mapping is an excellent way to build a lash extension set customized to your client's features. Lash mapping also saves you time by allowing you to build the perfect variety of lash extensions in less time and go back to your lash mapping at any time.

You want someone who’s not just book-smart but also knows what it’s like to deal with the day-to-day challenges of being a lash artist. A trainer with a lot of experience can give you tips and tricks that go beyond the textbook.   Small Class Sizes Look for classes with small student-to-teacher ratios. This gives you more one-on-one time with the instructor, which helps you get the most out of the training. Hands-on practice is key when it comes to mastering techniques, so make sure your class allows plenty of that.   Ongoing Support After you complete your eyelash extension training, it’s normal to have questions or run into issues once you’re back in the real world. Find a course that offers ongoing support, like a mentor program or access to a community of fellow lash artists. This is a great way to stay connected and continue learning even after your training is done.   Final Thoughts: Why Training Sets You Up for Success At the end of the day, eyelash extension training is one of the best investments you can make in your lash career.

Define Your Brand Identity Start by defining what makes your lash business unique. Consider your style, the techniques you specialize in, and the kind of client experience you offer. This could be anything from a luxurious, spa-like atmosphere to quick and affordable services. Example: If your brand is all about organic products and a gentle approach, make sure every post echoes this theme.   2. Use High-Quality Visuals Since lashes are all about visual appeal, your social media posts should feature high-quality, close-up images of your work. Use a good camera or smartphone and natural light to capture the fine details of your lash applications. Example: Before-and-after photos showcasing the transformation can be very effective. Post these consistently to highlight your skill and the quality of your results.   3. Engage with Your Audience Interaction is key on social media. Respond to comments, ask your followers questions about their lash care routines, and share stories that invite further interaction. Example: Run a weekly Q&A session on Instagram Stories where you answer followers' questions about lash care and maintenance.   4. Leverage Client Testimonials Share reviews and testimonials from happy clients. This not only boosts credibility but also shows potential customers the kind of experience they can expect. Example: Create a highlight reel on your Instagram profile dedicated to testimonials and client selfies.   5. Offer Exclusive Social Media Promotions Give your followers a reason to book appointments through your social media profiles by offering exclusive discounts or packages. Example: "Flash Sale Friday — Book through Instagram and get 10% off your next refill!"   6. Utilize Hashtags Use relevant hashtags to increase the visibility of your posts. Research popular hashtags in your industry and also create a unique branded hashtag for your business. Example: Use general tags like #lashextensions, #lashartist, and more specific ones like #MiamiLashes if you’re based in Miami.   7. Post Consistently Consistency is vital in keeping your audience engaged and in making your social media profiles look active. Decide on a posting schedule and stick to it. Example: Plan to post at least once a day or several times a week, focusing on peak times when your audience is most active.   8. Show Behind the Scenes People love seeing the person behind the business. Share behind-the-scenes content that shows your process, your workspace, or even your daily routine. Example: Share a time-lapse video of you setting up your work station or preparing for a client.   9. Educate Your Audience Provide value to your followers by sharing tips on lash care, the latest trends in lash styles, or how to prepare for a lash extension appointment. Example: Write a mini-blog post on "Top 5 Foods to Enhance Lash Health" and share it as an Instagram post.   10. Collaborate with Other Local Businesses Partner with other local businesses like bridal shops or beauty salons to cross-promote services. This can help you reach a broader audience.

EXISTING CUSTOMERS SHOULD BE RECAPTURED Yes, you might be interested in getting new customers. However, your previous customers will surely be your most excellent marketing tool to upscale your business. They have already tested your services or the products that you are offering. It's a great time to offer them something to win them back or retain their loyalty. It's a very effective method that improving customer retention will significantly affect the company's value. When you offer them something that they will look forward to, they will surely ask to invite or refer you to their friends. It's a win-win situation, you retain your previous clients, and you might have potential clients coming in and adding to your clientele. Let your previous clients be up-to-date on the latest happenings in your business. There will be promotions coming up, referrals, holiday specials, etc. Let them be part of your email list to feel they are also part of your business.

Ask For Referrals You have already built a strong relationship with your clients, and by now, you are comfortable asking for their referrals. As I said, they are your most excellent marketing tools, and they can do so much help to your lash business. In return, you incentivize referrals with a discount code that they can use on their following services. If they are on social media, they can post about the kind of service/products that they got from me and talk about it on their social media platforms. Nowadays, everyone's on social media, and most customers look up to influencers and clients for their recommendations. They are the first-hand people who can attest to your services/products.

Contain Your Costing You might think that getting your pricing higher will surely bring profit. Yes, it's true, but it will not come in handy. Changing the pricing of your services/products might significantly hurt your lash business. I am not saying you can't increase your pricing. I am trying to say it grow when the company stabilizes and when you are ready to do it. In the meantime, keep the clientele up if you are trying to grow your business. Keep the cost of your salon or business minimal. That is why the inventory of products is highly recommended at this stage. You can't afford to buy so many supplies and not maximize their use. But what is necessary as of the moment. Upgrades can be done once you have already established your lash business and keep being fully booked. Lessen the marketing materials that are not relevant to your lash business. For now, focus on what's free or at a minimal cost.Again, upgrades can be done in no time once you keep up with your clientele. L Curl Lashes and Ultra Crystal Bond are used in this set.

With your content, posting your lash sets works, the proper captions, and high reach hashtags, you can reach out to clients you would like to market.If you're from San Diego, add a location pin on your post or hashtags, and people researching the lash business near or on San Diego, your post will surely be on their feeds.You expose your lash business to so many people who might be your prospective clients.

How do lash artists make money? How do lash artists get more clients? The pandemic dramatically affected everyone, and the lash industry was also got tremendously affected. Due to this year's pandemic, most lash artists steadily declined clients coming to get their lashes done. As lash artists, we need to be innovative and find ways to get extra profit for our lash business. There are many ways to make more money as a lash artist and beauty professional.   Ultra Crystal Clear Bond used in this set. To shop, please click here.   New to lash photo editing? We've got you covered with our Free Lash Editing Tutorial. Click here to learn more!   Making money as a lash artist can be tricky. There are many strategies that you can employ to ensure that you make the maximum amount possible.  We will give you many tips on how to scale your business as a lash artist, and hopefully, this will help you get through this pandemic in running your lash business successfully.    1. Upscale Your Skills When you're beginning your lash journey, you offer the same basic lash set: classic lashes. It truly is a great start, but if you want to make more money as a lash artist, it's essential to upgrade your lash skills as soon as you feel ready to do so.  Classic Lashes Wispy Lashes 0.15 C curl 8-15mm and Velour Lash Adhesive are used in this set. To shop, please click here.   I know this might be an additional expense, but I assure you that take this as an investment. You will indeed be able to stand out from your competition.When you have already mastered a basic classic lash set, it's about time to learn a new skill set, hybrid, volume, mega volume, and wispy lash set.Remember, clients love variety, and they are willing to pay more for a lash artist who can offer them a variety of lash sets. It's like going to a restaurant, and you would instead go to a restaurant that has a variety of food options, then going to a restaurant that only has a few options on the menu. The same goes with lash extensions. A client will prefer to commit to a lash artist that can offer a different lash set. Clients do not like to change their beauty professionals, and they want to go to the same one. Therefore, for your lash client to commit to you, it helps to have a variety of looks in your portfolio because the client never knows when she may feel like trying mega volume or colored lashes. Do this gradually, go to training one step at a time. It's always good practice to put away at least 5% a year on training that you want to do as a beauty professional. Remember, when you can offer more value, you can already increase your pricing. You can search for local training in your area, and online training is also beneficial because it allows you to learn a skill in your own home.     I am currently offering an Online Wispy Training Course that is a full-blast of information that  will upscale your lash skills to a different level.

Upsell Your Other Lash Set A client goes to your salon asking for a classic, be proactive and maybe offer a hybrid or mega volume, or wispy lash set, tell them about the benefits and the beauty if can add on their overall look. Some clients DO NOT know about other lash sets, and they would be perfectly excited and happy to upgrade to another lash set if they knew about it. Educate your clients and empower them. It is the best gift you can give them and yourself.Upselling would be helpful for you to upgrade their lash set from classic to wispy, which of course, will be a higher price and an apparent reason for having extra profit on your own.You can also upsell your client on another service you offer. For example, offer them a facial with the purchase of a lash set for 30 % OFF. This strategy works best if you provide a discount with an expiry date. Scarcity is significant here.Use your charisma when talking to your clients in sales; this is crucial because your clients will not remember what you said to them, but they will remember how you made them feel, so always make them feel fantastic around you so they will want to come back for more services. We go into much more detail about the detailed strategies in our online marketing course. CLICK HERE TO REGISTER>> Ultra Crystal Clear Bond is used in this set. To shop, please click here.    3. Selling Products  My struggles looking for lash products are accurate and took years. I had to look for vendors that passed my standards as a lash artist. Products that I would be producing to recommend to my lash artists friends.  I had wasted money, time, and efforts before I decided to create products that would be quality-tested by my team. It is an excellent avenue to make some additional income as a lash artist, but this avenue takes much more time and finances than the other avenues.If you are not ready yet to start your product line, that's fine, and because you need to have enough funds, the expenses can be pretty high to create your line.You can start selling aftercare kits, lash foams and lash wands. It will be a good start that you can recommend to your clients. When recommending these products, educate them about the benefits of their aftercare routine, and that's when you will tell them which products to use and sell them their aftercare kits directly. Lash Foam is used in this set. To shop, please click here.   Aside from displaying it in your shop or salon, you can be aggressive in doing your marketing. Everything is online now, and digital marketing is the latest trend on making your lash business out there and letting people know that you are selling lash products aside from eyelash extension services. Social media marketing for lash artists is fantastic. If you are NOT yet using social media platforms to sell your lash services and products, it's time to start.In our case, we are giving out free education for lash artists and educating lash artists on various products and tips they can use in their daily practice. Promoting your services or products on social media can be profitable if done correctly. Take advantage of this NOW. The cost of FB and Instagram ads will only continue getting more and more expensive. There's no better time to improve your social media presence and start getting more clients.   4. Be A Mentor You already know everything there is to know about the lash company, and you are confident in your ability to run it. If you are sure enough, you can consider mentoring other lash artists.

How much money can you make as a lash artist? How much per day or month will all depend on how eager you want to earn more.

We've got you covered with our Free Lash Editing Tutorial. Click here to learn more!   Being a lash artist is the best decision that I made. Venturing into this kind of industry has been rewarding yet challenging, and it brings out the best and worst about me. Before discussing the money side of this blog, let us briefly talk about how to become a lash artist. You can check out your area where you can have your training to get certified as a lash artist, which is very important for you to perform eyelash extensions. There are so many things that you need to learn. Yes, you can watch videos online, but hands-on training will be a different kind of training that will further enhance the type of skills that you already have or have no experience with at all. Once you get certified, the next step would be sourcing for your lash products essential when you perform your job. It will be a bit time and money-consuming because you have trial-and-error on this part. Are you going to work in a salon or have your shop, or maybe you can consider working from home since it's pandemic? It all depends on your current situation financially. Just a heads up, you will not earn as much as you are expecting when you are just starting your career because you may know you need to invest in the products you will be needing, your location, and other stuff.   How much do lash artists make? It's a question that I get asked a lot: "How much money can I make as a lash artist?"How much money you can make is determined by several factors, some of which are under your control.First and foremost, the more clients you have, the more income you'll receive. But not only have the clients come in but having them come back is essential. Because if they don't come back, you're not going to be able to charge them, or they're not going to be paying you.Secondly, what do you charge? Some people say "double" or "triple" or whatever number they want to use, and they multiply it by what they think their cost is. That's not really how it works.I think it's important to understand your market and understand what people are willing to pay. And this isn't unique to the beauty industry or lashes. It applies across the board for any brick-and-mortar business where people are coming directly into a place of business and paying for services.As I said, it's essential to know your market, but other things go into it, like how much time it takes you to apply your lashes.   Let us make a computation for you to oversee the possible earnings you will be getting. For a classic, I started charging ranging from 50-80$ when I started. Some of you might think that is way too low. Yes, you may be right. However, during this time, my goal is to practice as much as possible. Even after getting certified, I kept practicing, but I didn't charge any. I called for models, my family members, and my BFFs willing to be my practice client, and I did everything for myself. I didn't earn so much, but I learned from those who trusted me.

Let say, 80$/full set 80$/set x 4 clients/8 hr. = 320$/day 320$/day x 5 days a week = 1, 600$/5 days of work 1, 600$/week x 4 weeks in a month = 6, 400$/month 6, 400$ x 12 months = 76, 800$/year That is only for a classic set. You can get higher for the different lash sets you will offer your clients.  This pricing is for my beginner's rate. And I keep increasing as I eventually get to know more of the industry. Let us say, you’re already a PRO and charging 130$ for classic, let see the computation below: 130$/set x 6 clients/8 hr. = 780$/day 780$/day x 5 days a week = 3, 900$/5 days of work 3, 900$/week x 4 weeks in a month = 15, 600$/month 15, 600$ x 12 months = 187, 200$/year   What do you think about this computation? Do you think this is undoubtedly a profitable career? As I have mentioned earlier, earnings depend on how fast you can work on and how many clients you can accommodate per day.   For more tips like this one be sure to subscribe to our email list, we send very informative and helpful emails every week, please click here.   How to put a price on your service? As a lash artist, you might not know how to put a price on your lash services. You can do competitor's research, check your local lash artist as to how much they are charging, and it's best to check how the local market is doing their prices. With this, you will not set so high or low. If your area has clients who pay more and give tips, of course, go charge higher, but if it's the other way around, then make the necessary adjustment on your pricing.
