A few years ago we saw Shannon Sin on Instagram making a lot of noise for a lash brand in a good way. Her Reels and videos were just so much fun to watch. We talked about having her help us out at LASHCON but due to scheduling issues, we weren't able to make it work. Now Shannon works at The Lash Shop as their development manager and still helps some with Instagram. In today's episode, Shannon shares insights on how "the algorithm works", how you can improve chances of being seen on IG, what makes good content, and shares some useful apps you can try using for your social media.

We love being guests on other podcasts, and it's always exciting for us to share these podcasts with you so you can hopefully find new voices to listen to you in our industry. Joanna Lee podcast has been going on for a few years and started back when COVID first started affecting all of us. She invited us on her show to talk about a lot of topics. We get personal in this episode and pull back the curtain some to our life. We also talk about how people in the UK are charging too little for their services, we talk about public speaking and where do we get our confidence. We had a great time chatting with Joanna! Please go check out her podcast! She has a lot to offer.

Are you thinking of starting a lash brand? Or maybe you already have one and feel no one knows your struggles?In today's episode, we sit down with the founders of the UK brand Pink Fishes. Tina and Annie are great friends, and together, they have built one of the UK's largest lash brands over the last 7 years. They share the story of how they started their brand, discuss the pros and cons of their unique name, give insights on what it's like to have a business partner and go into some of their struggles in building their brand. We really enjoyed getting to know them and hearing their story. I'm sure you will too!Website: https://pinkfishes.com/en-usIG: @pinkfisheslashcoANNOUNCEMENTS:⁣The 3rd Annual Lashie Awards are here, and this is the year you are going to apply!

We see on Instagram all the time trainers and lash companies tell lash artists to never settle for anything less than the best trainings and products. Sounds like good advice...but it falls a little short. Most of them assume my products and training are the best, so buy them...but often they don't explain why theirs is the best. We are just supposed to trust them.In today's episode, we thought we'd share some ideas and tips on what you need to look for when trying to find a good product line or training. This is not the most extensive list of things to think about but we hope it will give you some nice guidelines as you consider your options.

Over the years, I have noticed most lash artists have no idea what is going on in their financials. As long as their bank account doesn't hit "zero" they are good. In today's episode, we have Cecilia Wiscomb of Elan Artistry joining us to talk about finances, CPAs, bookkeeping tips, as well as her favorite subject, Quickbooks. Cecilia is a lash artist with a background in accounting and is here to help you help make more sense of your financials. While this stuff can be a little dry at times, it's so important that you learn about it, as it could make or break your business.Cecilia has a class online where she teaches you how to use Quickbooks. We highly suggest you take it as it will help you get control of your business.

The 3rd Annual Lashie Awards are here, and this is the year you are going to apply! Over the last two years, we've had a few hundred lash artists apply, and out of that group, 47 lash artists have brought home a Lashie Award Trophy. We started this award program because we saw so many competitions that awarded lash artists for great lash work, but no one recognized great lash business operators. Since LASHCON is all about teaching lash artists about business, we decided to start an awards program that also celebrated the best and the brightest business minds in the lash industry. In today's episode, we share all the deets on what you need to know, and we give away some tips that will improve your chances of winning a Lashie Award. On top of that, we go into good detail on why pretty much every lash artist should apply for a Lashie Award. While not everyone can win a Lashie Award, there are so many benefits from applying that have nothing to do with winning.

On June 25th Deb Bazzle, owner of Lash Story Studios, lost her whole business in just a few hours to a fire. What would you do if this happened to you? Do you know if you are protected from such a disaster? Deb thought she was protected, but when she checked her policy, it turned out she was only covered for $5000 in damages...to get back on her feet, she needs over $30,000.In this episode, we talk to Deb about what happened. She shares some great tips that all business owners must consider when protecting their business from a disaster like a fire. We also hope to help raise money to get Deb back on her feet. Her friend has set up a Go Fund Me page, and so far, over $11K has come in. Our goal is to raise $25,000. Please take a minute to click on the link below and give anything you can afford. If all our listeners gave $25, we'd blow past the $25,000 goal with no problem. Here is the link: https://bit.ly/3Nxck8HIf you can afford to give more than $25, please do...but in the end, we just hope everyone can give something.

This last week was interesting. We made a post saying that we feel it's okay to lash clients who have a stye. We had some very loving and kind lash artists contact us and inform us that they thought this was bad advice. At first, we doubled down and said that we didn't see what was wrong with lashing someone with a stye. It's been a while since we've given this issue some thought, and when we went back to our medical sources (and did some reading on the subject), we discovered we were wrong. UGH!!In today's episode, we eat some humble pie and share what you should do with clients who come into your salon with a stye or chalazion. Tussanee gets a little nerdy (as she's prone to doing) and goes into what causes these medical conditions. ANNOUNCEMENTS:⁣LASHCON tickets are on sale!

We are excited to share a replay of the Beauty Behind the Brand Podcast. We were on it recently on this great podcast with Nicole Manion the host and we hope after you hear the interview, you'll go check out her podcast. In this episode, we share a little about our history in the industry, how Gary Vee influenced us, how to attract high-end clients, and why you need to stand out from your competition.
