Does this sound familiar? You’re a new lash stylist and eager to get some clients on your calendar…you post on facebook and ask friends to help you out with ‘Likes’. You post some pretty pics on Instagram and wait for the phone to ring. Or for emails with potential clients looking for an appointment. Only to hear virtual ‘crickets’….instead?

It’s an all too familiar scenario, and unfortunately your lash extension training probably didn’t do much in the way of showing you how to truly attract new clients or how to navigate your online visibility. It takes strategy, the proper tools and knowledge to get there. But that’s a lot to handle in the beginning especially if you’re new to the industry and all you wanna do is Lash.

I’ve been dancing around this issue for almost 2 years now. How can I help Lash Extension Artists overcome this hurdle…how could I make it easier to get clients, without the fuss and large learning curve that not all stylists can tackle in the beginning? Enter my newest project… My Lash Connection !

Ideally, it brings you the opportunity to be in front of more new clients week after week, with little to no effort. Actually bringing the clients to You exactly when a clients is searching. All you have to do is put the best professional presence forward in your social profiles and website and the client then chooses the best fit for them.

It’s a huge undertaking though…because essentially the service has to begin showing up in online searches when clients are searching for “Lash Extensions + (Insert City)” this is the monumental hurdle that the service has to overcome, and will take an enormous budget to run and maintain.

So here’s the skinny on how I’m looking to accomplish this:

  1. In order to gauge the amount of demand that is present for this type of service, I’ll be opening up My Lash Connection submissions for Free. So Join Today!
  2. MLC is live, and ready to take your submissions.
  3. Once the total US submissions reach 200, the launch will move forward and the platform will switch to a paid member based service at $10/month. Those first 200 stylists will enjoy a trial period for 60 days. After which they may choose if MLC is a good fit for them or not. 

I’m super excited to present this opportunity to you, because not only will I get the opportunity to help more stylists gain more clients…this helps more of You focus more on lashing and taking care of your current clients and giving them the best possible experience with you.

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.
