    Every year, when we wrap up LASHCON, we ask our attendees what they would like to see next year… One of the top requests is that we bring LASHCON to the East Coast because they say no one does events there. Now, that might happen in the next year or two, but until we bring our event out there, there is a huge need for an event to serve the East Coast lash community. In today's episode, we are excited to have our good friends Stephanie and Pat Nunnari on our podcast to discuss their new lash event, THE COURSE. This one-day lash event will take place in NYC on June 16, 2024, and we think it will be amazing. The Course is not like other lash events. They are featuring four top-level speakers who will be able to go a little deeper on the lash topics they are known for. Our very own Tussanee Luebbers and Tress Larson, Ali Lilly, and Michelle Nguyen will be featured. Each lash expert will have an extended time to share their lash trade secrets so you can level up your lash technique. As an added bonus, Pat and Stephanie, who are also behind the design company, Fangirl Society, share some insights on branding that we know you'll find helpful in branding your own lash business.

Olivia, Curtis and Ann have a passion for our industry as well as for providing safe products and our discussion with them was very enlightening and entertaining. It's been great getting to hear from a chemist, physicist, engineer, doctor, manufacture and we felt it would be perfect to have someone on who is selling the product every day to lash artists because they would get the most immediate feedback on the product from their customers.

    Over the last year, there has been a massive shift in our industry. More and more people are trying UV light-curing adhesives, and it's ruffling some lash artist's feathers. As a result, we have seen lash artists go online and share their concerns about this new way of lashing. A week doesn't go by where someone doesn't ask us what we think about the light-curing adhesives. After seeing so much concern and controversy on this subject, we decided to do a deep dive and talk to a lot of experts who could help guide us on how safe or unsafe this procedure is. We talked to a chemist, a doctor, an engineer, a physicist who specializes in this field, a manufacturer, and a distributor with the hopes we'll be able to provide you with a comprehensive look into this new trend. In today's episode, we set the table on this subject, and over the next 6-7 weeks, we'll unpack everything you need to know so you can make an informed decision on whether you want to give this new lashing trend a try.

    We've spent a couple of weeks studying this new thing that's hit our industry called MRR (Master Resale Rights). What is an MRR...it's a digital course that someone can sell, and when someone buys this course, they are allowed to resell it to their followers. We recently got access to a class and checked out what it was selling. We also have done a lot of polling from our lash family to get what you think. In today's episode, we break down what we have heard from our followers, and we share what we feel about this movement. Is it a scam? Can it actually help people? Is the marketing being replayed ethical? All good questions and you might be surprised by what we think.

    One of the joys of having a podcast is meeting so many interesting people. Dionne is one of those people. In today's episode, we sit down with Dionne Thomas, who owns a salon called Love and Lashes based in the UK and, at the same time, is living in Turkey raising her family. Her lash journey is quite unique, and she shares a lot of golden nuggets on how she got to where she is today. She shares how she used to work in the corporate world, and her employer really didn't care about her (not too shocking), but when her father fell ill, her boss tried to get her fired (that is shocking). She talks about building her business and how being evicted from her home pushed her to make some significant changes in her life. Dionne is a delight to have on our show, and we hope you enjoy getting to know her as we did.

    Back in 2018, when we first came up with our lash business conference, LASHCON, we also knew we wanted to start a coaching program that was affordable and allowed us to help lash artists build a business they were proud of. Our plans were to launch LASHCON and then start our coaching program. Then covid hit and to our happy surprise, LASHCON, blew up in a good way over the last 5 years. We were not really prepared for how big LASHCON would grow and how time-consuming it would become. While we wanted to start our coaching program, we felt if we started to coach people while building LASHCON, both of our programs would suffer. We decided to wait on LASHCAST CLUBHOUSE and just focused on LASHCON. Now that LASHCON has been established, we feel we are ready to start our coaching program and start serving our community in a more in depth and personal way.

    If you have been following us for a while, you know we love lash salon owners. They are the unsung heroes of our industry. That said, you also know we don't think most people are cut out to be a salon owner. In our humble opinion, it's the most challenging job in the industry with the most risk and generally the worst pay. In today's episode, Mackenzie Graham of Mack Lash Mob and podcast host of Talkin Smack joins us with insights on what it is like to run a lash salon. She shares how she grew her business and wasn't prepared to become a salon owner. She also goes into how much money she makes from her salon...you might be surprised by her answer. At the end we talk about her social media journey and how it she got burned out by it. We think the world of Mackenzie and love the honest answers she gives. We think this episode will be a great encouragement for all your salon owners out there.

    Being a mom and building a business is no easy task. It's very difficult to give all your attention to your business and then turn around and give 100% to your little ones who call you mom. They both seem to need all your attention all the time. How does one balance work and family life? I see people asking this question all the time. In today's episode, Ashley Lopez of The Luxury Lash Studio, shares her story how she got into the lash industry and how she kept pressing forward while have 4 kids in a relatively short period of time. Over the years, she has had to deal with a lot of difficult challenges... infertility issues, postpartum depression, miscarriages, starting a lash line that ended up not wanting to do...and so much more. Ashley is a strong woman, and I so enjoyed hearing her story. If you have kids or are thinking of having kids, I know you'll find this episode to be very encouraging.

    Are you running a Black Friday special with your business this year? Are you feeling the pressure that if you want to be a "real business," you need to jump into the Black Friday insanity? Black Friday can be a fantastic tool that can build your business, but for most businesses, I see out there, it's a horrible way to lose a lot of revenue because you give away the farm because that is what everyone else is doing. If you choose to do Black Friday there needs to be an actual strategy behind it, or otherwise, you could end up like our salon back in 2014, where we sold tons of gift cards and lash series in November but then made very little money in January and February when no one had to pay for their service. In today's episode, we share our thoughts on whether Black Friday is a good idea for your business and hope to get you to think through your strategy before you give away your store just to get a bump in sales for a day or week.

She shares about the challenges she has faced being in a province in Canada where they are regulated as well as the difficulties in finding supplies and tools in her province. We also talk about her attempts to mentor lash artists in her community and how some push back when she offers to help. On top of this Sam talks about 911 and how the town of Gander, Newfoundland is the only 2nd city in the world with a 9/11 memorial. When 9/11 happened, 37 planes landed in this small town and the city doubled in size in 24 hours. There is a Broadway musical called "Come From Away" that tells this amazing story of a small town rising up to the challenge of caring for strangers they have never met. Sam shares how this event changed her and how she lives her life. At the end, Tussanee shares some insights on how Hypochlorous Acid is a must you should have in your salon.
