Lash artists⌠remember youâre not just a service provider, youâre building a business.
At the end of the day, youâre putting in hours and spending time away from your loved ones to make money, so you may as well maximize what you earn in every appointment. đ°
The easiest way to do that? Retail products.
That doesnât make you a greasy salesperson, it makes you a smart business owner.
The secret is learning to listen for cues, because I promise you⌠clients are dropping them non-stop. When they ask how to care for their lashes, theyâre giving you the opportunity to provide the solution.
The artists who listen, educate, and retail intentionally are the ones who turn every appointment into a more profitable, successful business. đ¤
Youâre providing something your clients genuinely need. They leave happy, and you leave more profitable. Itâs a no-brainer.
PSST 𤍠magnetic connection does âNOTâ mean a quick drying adhesive.
Even adhesives with slow dry times can be capable of providing the perfect magnetic connection, and in all honesty using an adhesive that cures too quickly for you could even be a reason you are not seeing this magnetic connection (among others of course).
Curious about how to achieve this magnetic 𧲠connection? Let me know! đđŹ

Still unsure on which adhesive is the best choice for you? Our educators are trained to dissect your lash routine to find you the adhesive that works best for you.
When building our adhesive selection it was non-negotiable to our entire team that we offered enough variety in our adhesives that we could confidently recommend the perfect adhesive to any artist, at any experience level. We have no doubts we have the perfect one for you.
Want one of our educators to reach out to you? Itâs as simple as letting us know đŹ
If youâre skipping a wiggle test after application, Iâm willing to bet your retention is suffering.
Lashes with lifted bases like this one are extremely prone to premature shedding as soon as the client brushes their lashes or washes them.
Even if you are using the perfect adhesive, lashes, and doing everything else right, if your bases look like this, you will not have the retention you desire.
Although the wiggle test may add a small amount of time to your services at the beginning, when your clients come back with better retention you will without a doubt experience shorter fill appointments and happier clients!
PLUS Iâm servicing clients I would never book with traditional lash extensions⌠đ
My client Sarah had her second baby and cannot justify sitting for the time it takes to get traditional lash extensions
My client Chantelle developed an allergy to traditional lash extensions
My client Chelsea accepted a new job where our hours donât match well
These are just a few examples of the clients I have been able to continue servicing with citizen lash that traditionally would have been lost income and connections.
If youâre interested in how you can incorporate this service into your existing lash services, let us know đŹđ

Lash extensions can be so much more than just black stripes above your eyes.
When it comes to realistic lash design, we donât just do a 8 - 12mm cat eye ln every client and hope for the best, we consider the clients natural features such as: hair colour, contrasts, eye shape, lash structureâŚ
We play with lengths, we create organised chaos.
For this set, I broke the rules! I mixed lengths throughout the layers, up to 3 different lengths in each section.
Why?
Shorter lengths create a darker lash line, longer lengths a softer top line - texture was the goal.
Iâm truly in love with lash styling đ¤
For this wet lash set I used @lostartistrylash Dark Brown Volume Lashes in 0.05 C Curl
