It’s the middle of 2016 and it’s right about now that I’m taking inventory on where I’m at for my mid year goals…am I on track or am I slacking? Well I did have a slacker moment for about a month…let’s not hide that! We moved into our new home May 24…and we had been prepping and planning it since last summer (read I was secretly in cohoots with myself to make it happen 🙂 eh hem.. anyway. May was a slow month…because I made it that way, but moving is exhausting all by itself. Toss in 3 busy bodies, 2 dogs, busy business and busy husband…and it’s a recipe for pure exhaustion. To say my brain wasn’t functioning was putting it mildly…I’m not even sure HOW I even saw clients in the month of May!  But anywaaay…I’m back now…thank Goodness and it’s time to motivate and kick procrastinate out the door…Bye Feli—- I won’t! 🙂

So as I started to take inventory on how I’m doing for 2016, it became clear that something has shifted for me and my business since last year…that shift was an additional $5k a month!!! Wait…what? For me this is HUGE! But you wanna know what my next thought was? hey…I should totally take inventory on HOW I did that…and share it! I bet there are other lash extension and brow stylists that might find that useful! So that’s what I did…and below you can get an idea on how I did it.

I’ll tell you there’s not magic to it…it’s about committing to your goals and grinding that hustle as it should be. So if you’re curious watch my video by clicking the image and then tell me what you think! I’d love to hear your feedback!

If you’re interested in learning more on how I’ve done this, head over to the Lash CEO Success Series , this is the course you don’t wanna miss if growth is on your ‘Must Do’ List!

Understanding semi permanent makeup results, how long does the technique last. What is microblading?
By Rickina Velte September 2, 2017
Microblading is the talk of the beauty world and if you're reading this right now you may be wondering if permanent or semi permanent makeup is the career choice for you. This not so new but new to us industry is literally changing lives as it takes the beauty industry by storm. For as long as many of us can remember we've either over tweezed, or filled in our eyebrows...Ever. Single. Day  

It's a time consuming ritual that thousands and thousands of beauties are sick of doing. So in comes Microblading a semi-permanent savior of a technique. Delivering a beautifully natural and realistic looking set of eyebrows that provide easier mornings, no worries at the beach or in the shower.  It truly is a life-changing service that once mastered can be equally rewarding for you as the artist and for your clients. 

But getting started is different in every state and regulations are changing and shifting constantly to further create a solid set of rules for those looking to get started. Some require a license, while others do not. Best idea is to start with who regulates the tattoo industry in your state or country.  From there you should be able to find the answers you need to kick your Microblading artist career off. 

But sometimes overlooked is your personal inventory of skills, mindset and passion. Offering Microblading takes intense hand and eye coordination, a knack for artistry of the face, patience and an understanding of how the eyebrows play such an important role on everyone's face. I always like to say that one hair or stroke can make or break a set of brows. Without believing this truth...you may find that this field isn't for you. 

Next are you ready for the business side of things? If you're considering striking it out on your own, you better be ready to wear 10 different hats...and juggle them in the air. You have to be the artist, the janitor, the marketer, the accountant, the legal, the designer, and then some.  Running any business alone is never easy, but running a beauty business poses its own set of challenges. Not only do you have to be an artist you have to be a whip at getting new clients to you. And unfortunately many microblading trainers out there today have no idea how to do this. They may be amazing brow artists and instructors...but have no clue beyond Facebook and business cards to grow your new business. So you are then in a position of having a beautiful new skill you wanna share with the world...but no one to share it with. 

So by now you may be over the moon excited to get started...or having second thoughts. Both of which are totally normal. But if you're having second thoughts, maybe sit down and take inventory on what is creating the doubt. Is it the investment in training, or the business side of it all? 

Or if you're ready to jump in head first...you're next steps are finding out your local regulations, seeking a reputable Microblading trainer or educator, and mapping out your business goals to get started. 

Lucky for you, I'm not only an Online Visibility Specialist for Microblading, Lash Artists and Beauty Pros...I also educate and train stylists on the art of skills to do the service, and how to bring them new clients.  I have the online marketing background... AND...I provide these services in my business still today. I can totally relate to your challenges, your questions and come right along side of you and guide you towards a Microblading career or business you're in love with.
