Hot take: retention is usually not a glue issue.

I see so many lash artists constantly switching adhesives, trying every new “best retention glue” on the market, and wondering why nothing is changing.

The reality is that glue is only one small piece of the puzzle.

Most retention issues come from things like prep, attachment, humidity, placement, using too much or too little adhesive, styling choices, or even client aftercare.

You can have the most expensive glue in the world, but if your attachment isn’t solid, your client isn’t cleansing properly, or your environment isn’t working with your adhesive, you’re still going to struggle with retention.

Before buying another bottle of glue, take a step back and really look at your technique.

Ask yourself:

* Are my natural lashes properly cleansed?
* Is my attachment actually good?
* Is my room within the right humidity and temperature range?
* Are my clients following aftercare?
* Am I choosing styles that are appropriate for my client’s natural lashes?

Sometimes the problem isn’t what you’re using, it’s understanding why the retention issue is happening in the first place.

Once you start focusing on technique instead of constantly changing products, that’s when your retention really starts improving.

The tea is HOT but my tweezers are on the FLOOR 😭☕️

I remember what it felt like trying to figure everything out on my own. Spending hours watching videos, second guessing myself, making mistakes, and wishing I had someone to guide me every step of the way. 🤍

That’s exactly why I teach the way I do now.

When my students join my training, I want them to feel supported, encouraged, and confident from day one. From learning how to hold your tweezers to completing your first full set, you never have to do it alone.

Because becoming a lash artist shouldn’t feel overwhelming—it should feel exciting. And if I can make someone’s journey easier than mine was, then I’ve done my job. ✨

Your success becomes my success, and I’m here to cheer you on every step of the way.

A lot of people only see the final result, but there’s so much that goes into creating a set that’s made just for you. 🤍

Every appointment starts with a consultation where we talk about your lifestyle, eye shape, natural lashes, and the look you’re going for. From there, we carefully map out a style that complements your features, isolate every natural lash, and apply each extension with precision.

The goal isn’t just beautiful lashes when you leave the salon—it’s creating a set that’s comfortable, lasts well, and suits you.

Every set is customized because no two clients are the same, and that’s what makes lash artistry so much more than just applying extensions.

Ready for your dream lashes? We’d love to have you in our chair. 💗

They never tell you that becoming a lash artist also means becoming a professional keeper of secrets. 😂 Between the relationship updates, work drama, first dates, and the “you can’t tell anyone this…” stories, I’ve heard enough client lore to accidentally end up in a Netflix documentary.

Don’t worry though… the lash room is a judgment-free zone, and your secrets stay with me. 🤍

Lash techs… tell me I’m not the only one. 😭

POV: What I think I look like teaching… 😁🌸💅✨

Reality: 🧍‍♀️😐🔬📋

I swear I’m not mad—I just get SO focused 😂

When I’m teaching, my brain is working overtime making sure you’re placing everything properly, building good habits, and understanding why you’re doing something instead of just copying me. Apparently my concentration face makes me look like I’m about to fail everyone… but I promise that’s not the case. 😭

I’m actually the biggest cheerleader for my students. Ask me a question? I’ll answer it. Need me to show you something again? Absolutely. Want me to watch you do it five more times until you feel confident? I’m right there with you.

I’d rather you ask 100 questions during training than leave feeling unsure. My goal isn’t just to certify you—it’s to make sure you leave feeling confident, supported, and actually ready to take clients.

So yes… I might look a little intimidating while I’m locked in. But I promise I’m just trying to help you become the best lash artist you can be. 😂🫶
