Do you have a dream of owning your own lash salon one day? Of course, you do. Everyone wants to have their own lash empire someday where your staff will feed you grapes while you sit on your lash throne made of spoolies. Okay...maybe that's a little over the top. That said, most lash artists I know hope to have a salon one day (spoolie lash throne not included) but running one is no small task. While you might be a great lash artist, becoming a great business owner requires a whole new set of skills. In today's episode Shelby Tarleton of Lash Boss Radio and Pink Lady Lash shares her journey from beauty school to one lash salon to two lash salons...and now back down to one lash salon. This is a great episode for anyone who is looking to hire someday and build a salon, brand, or any type of company that serves our industry. Being a leader is not an easy thing and building a sustainable company that doesn't completely take over your life is not easy either. In today's episode, Shelby gives you a peek into what it's like to run a salon and why she felt it was better for her to combine two salons into one.
