CZcams suggested this video. And I totally remember you coming over and doing our lashes and bringing Starbucks. Your husband, brought in the table for you. We later did a trade, i massaged him, and I got lashes. What an incredible hustle! 💕 3 locations now, so so dope.
@@ladydjohnson7723 We have a video where I talk about glues. I normally recommend our mini white but definitely check out the video first to get a better understanding ❤️ We're here for any questions as well
Yo I cried while watching this. Over the past 2 years, I fell in love with entrepreneurship and just being able to have financial freedom and build a legacy for my family. I am the first to do this in my family but it has been so hard being a Lash Artist and Hairstylist, there are times when I feel like I am never going to get a steady flow of clients or never be where I envision myself, but the two of you have watered the seed that was planted and I am going to keep pushing by any means necessary!
This is so true... I just saw a meme that said “your own friends won’t support you but will DM drake wishing him a happy birthday” As sad as it is, family and friends will mostly want a free service/ discount before understanding that your hard earned cash and time go into this. At least for us that know the struggle, we should be more than happy to support our friends.
LashedByStephanie super messed up huh? The only way they will make the switch back to you is once you have proven your success and can make it big. Then everyone will say “we never doubted you and were behind you the whole time.” 💕
Just started lashing full time and stop working as a waitress and wasn’t sure if I was doing the right thing til you guys have boosted up my confidence and learn so much more thank you 💜💜
Christina Pascascio you are welcome! Glad you are getting the confidence you need and learning a lot from our channel. Just keep pushing forward and most importantly don’t give up right away. 💕
You guys just won me over, I’m legit balling watching the end, I quit my job with just a couple of bucks, single mother of 2 and with a newborn and decided to start lashing, I love it I do mobile but I’m not as busy.. I pray to god I start getting busy to have enough for diapers and not worry! Thank you so much!!! This inspired me so much! You guys rock!!!! Love your lashes btw! I’m not stalking models but I stalk your stories😂
Pups & Pumps awe thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video. Lashing can be super lucrative. If you make a friend with your clients and offer some referral credits for them to refer people to you, you will start getting enough clients that you can make great money and enjoy what you do. Congrats on your new lash journey. Don’t stress about quitting your old job. You can make this work and be a great success at it. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
This message was definitely for me! I graduate from Esthetics school next month and have been lashing for about a year. I’ve been Having trouble building clientele but my husband has been a great support! This struggle has actually made us closer so I am truly encouraged after hearing your story!! 🙌🏽
Nichole Rose we are glad you liked the message. It really helps having a great support system at home like your husband. Keep moving forward and enduring and the clients will eventually come. The number 1 mistake most people make is they give up too early. Those who persevere prevail. 💕
I'm literally crying, can't say how much this inspires me. I don't have much at all, and have only been running around the idea of doing lashes for the past 3 years. I don't want to wait anymore, I feel like fear of failure is the biggest thing that's kept me stuck. Thank you so much for sharing this 🙏🏼
I just love how supportive you guys are. My plans are to have my own lash/esthetics business and being able to work for my own and also help others girls have a job and help them strive, grow and inspire. This is all I ever needed. This definitely confirmed me to go straight to you guys and get my certification for sure ♥️
Awe! Alejandra Ortiz thank you for the kind words. Serving others is so rewarding. We love to see other success stories and can’t wait to see your new business come to fruition!
This is so inspiring! My boyfriend and I watched this together. We definitely related to the broke life and the at-home lashing lmao but honestly this was an eye opener and made me realize that he's my number one supporter when I started lashing. Even all the struggles with money and wanting to put my services out there knowing that clientele will be hard at first, he never gave up and hes always promoting for me as well. You both are the real definition of a #PowerCouple. Obviously I came to this vid to want to know how you guys became so successful.. but I'm soooo glad that I picked up more on the raw side of the beauty industry because the struggle def is real at first and it still is for me. But this makes me want to push harder and I'm so grateful to have a partner just how Mike is to Shauna who has always supported no matter how hard it got. You both are absolutely amazing! ❤
Hi sarah ferran. Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m happy this video inspired you. Keep pushing forward in your lash journey. There’s always trials to go through in the beginning but just remember that the person that persevere’s always prevails. 💕
I am a new lash artist ! I recently qualified in February 2019. Watching this video has motivated and encouraged me so much to keep going. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us all. I have learnt a lot from your channel x
normally do not comment on videos. But the strength and determination between you guys is contagious inspiration. I think there’s something bigger to take away from their experiences. Love the lashes
I just sold my Apple Watch to pay for some of the supplies I needed 🤧 0 clients. I don’t have too many friends maybe 2 and family is 3hrs away from where I live. I just got certified and honestly you don’t learn a lot when you get trained for 4hrs.. however I purchased a book and I been watching CZcams videos and practicing till 4am sometimes.. This is very motivational video it makes me keep pushing forward. Thank you. ❤️
I am so happy I came across this video today. It gave me the motivation that I’ve needed. I am a lash artist here in LA. I’ve been lashing for a good 4 yrs now. I started JUST like you guys! In a room at my home. Then rented a studio @ Sola salon. It became too expensive for me. So went back to my home. It’s been a real struggle. Married, 2 toddlers & at 1 point 99 cent store cup of noodles and Mac and cheese kept us alive. My husband started a Auto Detailing business (foreign detailing) & we both are working out of our home. I am so thankful to have heard your story & know there is a bright future for me, my family & my business. I can’t wait to come out to Vegas & visit your salon!!! Again, thank you for this whole channel! You both are an inspiration! Btw, I love the couple business partners! That’s amazing!
Wow! This is so encouraging as a new tech! I’m home right now practicing lashes. Nervous about a client tomorrow and came across this video. Thank you 💜💜
I love stories like this! I became a self taught MUA 2 years ago (soon to be lash tech) and I’m STILL trying to grow my clientele. I started out charging $25-35 each client, AND I traveled to them 😩 until this day, it’s been so slow for months at a time and I don’t have another job (thank God for my bf) But I definitely been through similar struggles and hearing and seeing you guys’ success is giving me a whole new level of hope! ✨
I’m literally going thru the same thing .. I am a mortgage loan officer and I want to be a lash tech . I just so happen to click on on your video. You are so inspirational. I needed this video !!!
Lalonnie Phillips hi. Thank you so much! Glad you found our video. I can totally relate to where you are right now. If your serious about making the switch I would learn how to do lashes and start practicing so you can get good at them while your working your primary job. Eventually you will build up a client base and will be able to determine if your ready to make the full time switch. It can be very scary leaving security at first but it can also be far more rewarding if you find out you are passionate about lashing. Hope this helps. 💕
I'm from the UK and really want to start learning to be a lash tech around my studies. You guys are so inspirational, telling us not to give up even when it seems like there is no way out. You guys are awesome! Wish you the best
History Princess awe!!! Thank you so much for the kind words. This is exactly why we love doing this. Thank you. Thank you! I would definitely recommend learning lashes as a side hustle around your studies to see if you like it. I also recommend following Frankie Widdows. She’s in the UK and been doing this a long time. She’s an expert at lashes and gives great tips and tricks as well. 💕
@@LivBayLash Yay! I got a reply Thank you 😍. I will most defintely check out Frankie widdows. And will keep on pushing forward. A campus full of people is a great customer base! ❤
I’m working at the bank right now and I can’t do it anymore. I have never been the type that could stay in a job long because I can’t stand with working for someone else. I got my esthetician license in April of this year and I want to get my certification for lashes. I’m going full time in September in my business. I have no money saved, I have not a clientele yet but you just boost me. I just need to take that leap of faith and go with God. I didn’t stumble on your channel for nothing. Divine connection. You just got a new subscriber. God bless you!
kym kiswe you hit the nail on the head. Go with God. It doesn’t matter what we want to do. If you trust in God, he will make sure you can make a great living doing something you are passionate about being your own boss. I’m not one to tell someone how to live their life, but if you hate your job at the bank, and don’t enjoy what you do, it’s probably time to take the next step in your career. Just have faith and follow our play book and you will do just fine. Sorry to get too preachy. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Hi guys, just saw this video. I am in the same position as you guys were in 2011. I am broke, have no money, can’t afford to pay rent or buy any supplies and I have no clients. I live in London, UK, and right now the market is quite competitive. I’ve lost my job due to COVID. However, your story is inspiring to me, I am struggling but watching your video and what you guys went through made me feel that it’s possible to do what you want as long as you have the determination. I am currently taking an online beauty course (March 2020) which includes eyelash extensions, I’ve had clients to practice which were good but could be better of course the more you practice the better you will be, I’m glad I found you guys, watching your video has motivated me to carry on and work hard. Thank you
6:13 so TRUE they do not I repeat DO NOT inform you that it takes time, it takes spending big money to make money, it's hard! Love y'all's story can definitely relate to A LOT that y'all mentioned.
It’s so rare to find people who are this supportive and genuinely care about helping other people. Thank you for being so honest about your journey and sharing your experiences and knowledge. You deserve every bit of success and more❤️
I worked in my house for 2 years, building my clientel, recently my mom was at the dentist and the doctor went crazy with her lashes, stop doing what she was doing on my moms teeth and called right away. After 1 month being my client she offered me a space in one of her clinics. Being kind, being professional, is the way to go, always 100% in every service and one day "luck will knock on your door".
I’m tearing up !!! Thank you for this😭 I’m so excited to start my brand and lashing but still thinking of all the bad that comes with it. CZcams needs more ppl like y’all ❣️ This video was RAW and RELATABLE! thank you and congrats on all of ur success 🍾
@@LivBayLash I am a new lash Tech and I am starting from my apartment, and I'm broke also. Luckily, now theres more tools to use for marketing than there was back when you started (back when I was a makeup artist and single mom😭). I am already booked for models.
yes girl never stop chasing! You'll find the people you need to support your goals and sometimes it may not come from who you want but thats okay just keep going ♥
Hey guys! After watching your video I have to say it’s so refreshing to hear someone tell the truth about starting out! So many places pump her head full of how much money you’re gonna make and then I see girls just get so discouraged and lash less and less and quit! I love that you tell it how it is! I’ve been lashing for 9 months, 5 months full time and I’m an independent contractor and building clients pretty well....with that being said... it really is hard and I had to get creative with advertising! I just keep going and don’t give up! I appreciate your story and congrats on your success! Hopefully I’ll get there one day 🥰
Loretta Hawkins hi. Hi. Thank you for the compliment. Of course you will. Just remember she who perseveres always prevails. Keep watching our videos. There’s a lot of great info that I feel will really help you get to the next level of this business. 💕
Ugh this made me cry ... thank you for this podcast. I’m a Mom of a soon to be college student and a toddler! I’m an esthetician student, rookie lash artist and part time at a salon trying to practice practice practice and build a clientele. my mr and i are making ends meet so this gives me hope! Thanks for giving me hope.
Josephine Torres don’t give up. I promise it will be worth it. You can make a very lucrative career out of lashes. We loved your comment on calling us your new lash bible. Hang in there mom and let us know if you have questions or need help with anything. 💕
This really inspired me. For years my husband wanted me to start a lash business . I have been dragging my feet but y'all just helped give me a push. Thank yall
Your story is truly inspiring. I’m so glad you share your hardships with such honestly. I really want to own my own business and recently decided to go to school for lashes. I have a career and a recent MBA graduate, but somehow lashes really captures my attention. I pray I can one day share a similar success story. Kudos to you!
I am totally at this beginning stage with my lash career, all my extra money goes right back into the business. So, this video totally motivated me to keep going, thanks guys!
This video was exactly what I needed. I am on the verge of loosing my business and feel so defeated. I’ve done almost everything in my power not to give up I’ve even had a stroke due to the stress of not wanting to be a failure. I think it’s time for me to start over and continue with what I’m passionate about. Thank you so much for this message and the encouragement you have given me.
BeautybyVero V of course. We can totally relate to the stress you are feeling. Please know that even if you hit the reset button it’s not a failure. It may not look like it now, but I promise the valuable stuff you have learned will be your best friend when you start back up because of the experience you have gained from knowing what will work and what won’t this time. 💕
This was an amazing story, the struggle the ups and downs and look where it got you. God is honestly good, your story is very motivating, I’m 21 and I feel like I have not accomplished anything.
This was an incredible video! So real and raw. My husband and I are doing it tough like you guys right now. I am just researching before starting a lash course and its awesome to hear your journey and see where you are now. Congrats on the hard work paying off 💖💖
Going through this, this very moment. Even when I’ve told them it’s for free and I would travel to them even though I live far away from them as I moved away from my home town, they still don’t make themselves available for me. It’s ok though they’ll be chasing me soon ✨🙏🏾
I loved this not only for it’s honesty but because you both seem so down to earth and real. I would want friends like you if you lived closer! 😉 I appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share with the world. Thank you and I’m looking forward to watching your other videos and seeing your continued success!
Y’all spoke to me so much!! I’m 25, just started lashing in June out of my house. Husband and I share a car and are having serious money issues right now. Thank you I feel so motivated!!
Ty and Lexie Montgomery I totally understand where you are. Just remember this whole thing is a mindset. If you believe you can do well. You will. I see new lash artists in the Facebook groups that post about making $3-5k a month in their first few months. We started in the same boat as you and are living proof of how big you can go with this in a short time. 💕
This really helps a lot I bought my first salon in June 2018 the lady I brought the salon from took all of our money and then left taking all the clientele and everything in the salon yet she stated she was leaving everything and the clients as she could no longer work due to health but it was all a trick to get money an pay off her debts and now she is working in another salon round the corner from the salon I bought off her and I have been struggling every time I get new clients she takes them she has stalked all my social media platforms even though I blocked her she gets someone to make fake accounts I have two small children and when I bought my salon I had saved and saved to buy it as a year before myself an my kids had no home we had nothing and I had to work hard to get the money for us to live I also worked things out with their dad so we could have a home again even though he was in the wrong but I worked hard to get money to buy into my own business so I could make a future for my kids and she took everything I’m now in the process of losing my car because I can’t pay for it due to this woman taking everything from me. But I still keep showing up at my salon everyday and sit there most days from early morning till late at night with no clients an I do it because I am committed and post offers and discounted treatments Iv sent out flyers everything an nothing but I still show up everyday I literally have no money left to put into my business and I have considered selling but I keep the faith that things will turn around and get better. My kids dad doesn’t help me at all or support me at all it’s like we live together as a family but we not together so I do everything on my own and I’m not ashamed to admit that because I know I will be able to say to my kids I never gave up no matter how much I lost I kept going and trying for their future
Beautiful life of Kimberley omg. I am so sorry to hear this. What city and state are you in? There has to be a way to get you back on track. No one should have to deal with that slimy bull shit that other owner did to you. 💕
Sassy Lashes Eyelash Extension Salon | Summerlin thank you I love in the UK unfortunately the lady I bought my salon from kept my copy of the contract between myself and her leaving with out any proof of what was included in the sale of the salon I have tried everything but with out my copy of proof nothing can be done. Iv revamped the salon and changed the salon name and signs promoted on social media sent out flyers everywhere. I did special offers on treatments but due to her moving to a salon round the corner and taking all clients she has even posted leaflets through people’s doors where my salon is. I won’t give up though it’s always been my dream to own my own salon and even though it’s getting close to the point I have no option to sell I refuse to give up
Beautiful life of Kimberley I’m sincerely sorry about this. I truly want to not only see you get your business on track but also beat her in business so bad that she has to close. Trust me Karma is going to floor her when she is least expecting it. Hang in there. This is going to make you mentally tougher and you will be able to overcome anything! 💕
Sassy Lashes LV thank you so so much means a lot. I won’t give up I also believe in karma. Your videos have helped a great deal in helping me to keep going
This just happened to pop up as I was watching another video. At the end when you said your not sure who this message was for I immediately thought me. I thank you for sharing your journey, and for the encouragement to keep pushing on. God is truly amazing and timing is all in his hands
Hannah Johnson don’t give up. Make sure to watch the video on getting clients on a budget. Please hang in there and follow our recipe. I promise it works girl. 💕
This made my cry..I’m a new lash tech and I wasn’t even looking for this type of video but happened to click on it. I’m so so glad I did! Absolutely inspiring!!
Broke and feeling like a big time failure right now, this is totally for me. Have a bachelors degree and healthcare management but that didn’t work out at all! Now starting lashes and I’m not even that young… it’s definitely super overwhelming but I have to make it work. Yay for me 😅
So nice to see real people. I have my own business, and I like you had to figure out everything and it is not easy and certainly something you must have passion for! I look forward to meeting you in person one day! I commend you for sticking firm and not giving up, God doesn't give us the dream without the ability to achieve it. Someone once told me there are two types of people, one finds an excuse - one finds a way, you the one who found your way to success! Congrats - and thank you for reaching out to help others, not many people would do that. Your awesome! Jackie
I absolutely love every video yall share with us, so much real information, I'm just starting as a side job to help, I have a special needs daughter who I love so much but have to keep home with me, I just want to work from home for now and eventually later down the road be able to open up my own place, I do this for my daughter I want a job where I can help my husband financially but have my daughter with me also and I realized I'm very blessed because actually the people that have come the most to try the lashes is my family, from my sister to aunts and neighbors, can't wait to have a lot more clients and see this grow and with Gods grace it will ;)
Lizbeth Molina amen. With God’s grace it definitely will. Excited to see others progress in their lash career. Thank you for watching our videos. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Thanks so much for your inspiring podcast. I have been a Hairstylist for many years now. I too live here in Vegas. I just took a lash class last month, and also felt like Shauna when I was done.Didn't teach me much at all! I received 3 different lash certificates though... Even though I learned very little, but me being a fast learner. I was determined to learn how to isolate. I have been focused and will continue to focus until I see this thing through! I watch all types of professional lash videos. I too will be a Successful Lash salon owner/ Have a lash school/ all types of lash products & make 10 figures... I am determined🙏🏾 I love that saying Shauna said of " You grow through, What you go through" Thanks Shauna & Mike Jones for your inspiring message. I love how you kept it real and honest! May God continue to best you in all of your business endeavors.... I have subscribed to your podcast and will continue to watch and grow from them, thanks! You are a God sent 🙏🏾 Peace & Love ✌🏾❤
Aww thank you so much, we appreciate your sweet words♥ All the practice and you will get it down, thats why we make videos for people who may have no learned all the needed to so you guys have something to fall back on if you need a refresher♥
I don't know how I found this video. But I remember finding you in instagram and having my lashes done by you in your house. Wow you have come so so far. God bless you 🙏
Hi, I just came across your channel and I am so glad I did. I have been a manicurist for over 20 years and last year decided to get my Esthetician license because I wanted to do lashes. You are so right about the schools not teaching all of the fundamentals of lashes and if you want to learn lashes you have to pay extra to the school which I think is BS because if lashes is within your scope of practice than it should be taught from start to finish in the beauty schools. I have been getting discouraged regarding my lash journey and I feel like I am just not getting it. But watching you and your husband talk about your lash journey has inspired me. Thank you P.S. You guys are hilarious too!!!
I watched this video again and I’m crying. I’m not going to quit 💪🏻 I’m on my treadmill watching lash videos and this one came up. Reason for everything 🙏🏻
Omg I love you guys! Thank you guys for sharing your journey! A true inspiration. I was truly at the end of my ropes in this business. I was certified a little over a year ago and haven’t been able to build my clientele. I have been totally frustrated and contemplating given up, but you guys truly inspired me to keep going! Thank God I stumbled onto this channel! Love the support system you guys have! Love how Mike knows all the Lash Tech Terminology! Fucking awesome!!
__simplyMC yes! Trust me when I tell you it’s totally worth it once you endure through the learning process. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
I’ve been a hair stylist for 26 years. Have recently considered lashing. I am very thankful to y’all for helping and sharing what you have learned through first hand experience. Thank you so much for the inspiration.
This is the sign I’m praying for. I am now starting my own lashes business and I started it for free. I have 1 kid and I’m a full time mom who wants to start something for herself (self growth).
I enjoyed every minute of this video. It’s crazy how, my husband and I also lived in Vegas in 2010-2015. Was totally broke and couldn’t afford eating at Taco Bell. Walking to the strip was a FREE get away we gave ourselves to not lose our sanity. Today, we’re back in Cali and preparing to open a Microblading business. Your story resonates with me so much that I couldn’t help but share. I’m humbled by how you and your wife fought through those trials. Your wife looks at you with so much love and respect. The support you give each other truly is your winning token. I’m glad I found your channel and I’m truly happy for the both of you. I know one day my husband and I will have a similar video to share about our experiences.
Simplystreetchic Aw thank you so much and thank you for sharing a piece of your story with us ❤️ were rooting for you and your husband for success in your microblading business ❤️
Needed to hear this. Such an inspiration, me and my spouse are going through the same exact thing but is making us more closer than ever. We have each-others back and no matter what we have to stay positive through it all. Thank you for sharing your story
Your video is so touching and inspiring. Im interested in becoming a lash tech and watched a ton of videos before starting. I’ve really learned a lot from watching your video. I’m a make up artist and hairstylist now and my business is so slow. I wanted to do lashes because i love beauty and this video you shared really helped me a lot. I really love how you and your husband are so open to sharing your life journey. You guys are REALLY REALLY Strong.Thank you so much and keep being motivated and successful.
Giamsemì Lynn thank you so much for the kind words. We sincerely appreciate that. I can tell you that the lash industry is growing and that if you are passionate about it, then it can be very lucrative and rewarding. Thank you for watching our videos. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Hi guys, thank you soo much for the honest video! I am going to take a course in lashing and hopefully start my business from my bedroom. This video has made me hungry to get started and find clever solutions to my unforeseen problems, that I’m sure I will face. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos! Thank you soo much
I am planning to start my lash business currently, and I layout all the expenses in doing it at home, and I feel like crying because I dont have the luxury to start even a small business... :( And then I bumped on you vid and Im so inspired with your work. I want to be like you...
Wow. I'm a beauty therapist from the UK and I'm opening my own salon soon ! This was very insightful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing this with us. Love you guys! Xxx
I got emotional watching this .. I just had my son & was trying to add services so I could avoid putting my baby in daycare, I saved and saved to take a lash class & ended up spending money without alot of knowledge but I practiced & ended up getting like 2 loyal clients ! I’m still struggling to get clients and I got discouraged and quit but I love lashing so much and this helped me want to push harder
This has helped me so much as I come from a huge family and before I became a MUA they use to pay other MUA'S to do their makeup. Now they all want their makeup for little or nothing and they are not thinking about my cost for products and if I have food in my cupboard. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
Makeup by ChristyJ you are very welcome! And we know how that can be, not receiving support from friends and family is tough. Set boundaries and don’t work for free you’re time is valuable ❤️
Thank you for doing this video and encouraging us. I too took a one day course of 6 hours and felt like I didn’t know what I was doing because the instructor didn’t teach on every aspect of the job; such as isolating lashes, cleaning them... she only showed us how to apply an individual lash for a classic look and let us practice just that, though the certification was for classic and volume lashes. She showed us how she makes her fans for volume lashes but never had us practice making them nor applying them 😏
Hi my name is Skyla I’m currently going to school for esthetics , I want to start a lash business , I work at a restaurant for 2 days and go to school for 5 I’m a single mom and life has just been SO HARD and watching this video Gives me hope thank you!❤️❤️
I love how transparent and real you guys are!! The beauty industry is so competitive.. hearing your story is so inspiring (gives me hope that I can eventually get where I want to be!!). 💗
Madison Nederveld yes. And it’s about to be wide open once things open back up. There will be a lot of new market share available. Kind of like hitting the reset button all over again. 💕
I’m just beggining this Lash trip and i am really happy i found you guys 💜 you are motivating me and i really appreciate to have someone to inspire me 😘
God sent me to your channel I’m a nail tech now and I love how transparent and relatable you guys are. I can definitely resonate with your humble beginnings. I’m definitely subscribing to you guys happy to start my lash journey 💕
This was the first video I watched from you guys and it was when I realized how humbling this whole experience has been. We’re literally creating our own brand and with that comes a lot of hardships. It helps to know we’re not alone. I am so proud of how far you’ve come and you will continue to have all of my support!! Love you guys!!! This is my favorite video ever! ❤️
Listening to this honestly made me cry. You guys are truly an inspiration and I wish you nothing but continued success and happiness. Yessss, this hit me from the beginning. I just started lashing and I feel like I’m failing !
Idk how i found this video, but you both made me feel 100% better about my lash business its been a long road...Congratulations on the success of your company.
It's SO true what you said about friends and family are the LAST to support you! Just starting out with my lash business and this is a brilliant informative video, congrats guys on your success!!
Thank you for sharing your guys journey with us. It definitely encourages me not to give up. I'm barely starting this lashing buisness and I can relate to everything you guys have talked about. Especially when you think friends and families would support you the most but that isn't always the case. I love the support you two have for each other and thank you for continuously showering us with tips and tricks!
Thank you so much! You will find the people who will support your business I promise, sometimes it just comes from someone unexpected. Good luck on your journey and we wish you all the success♥
I’m recently starting my business. Since listening to you guys help me a lot with tips and tricks getting clients. I will continuing support your podcast channels!💕

CZcams suggested this video. And I totally remember you coming over and doing our lashes and bringing Starbucks. Your husband, brought in the table for you. We later did a trade, i massaged him, and I got lashes. What an incredible hustle! 💕 3 locations now, so so dope.
I just start lashing but I need more practice but I may have too change my glue
@@ladydjohnson7723 We have a video where I talk about glues. I normally recommend our mini white but definitely check out the video first to get a better understanding ❤️ We're here for any questions as well
@@LivBayLash where can I go too order your glue
Yo I cried while watching this. Over the past 2 years, I fell in love with entrepreneurship and just being able to have financial freedom and build a legacy for my family. I am the first to do this in my family but it has been so hard being a Lash Artist and Hairstylist, there are times when I feel like I am never going to get a steady flow of clients or never be where I envision myself, but the two of you have watered the seed that was planted and I am going to keep pushing by any means necessary!
Don't give up! Good things will come your way just keep going ♥♥
so so sweet, thank you. Mike and I really appreciate you ♥
I'm crying too
Proud of you girl! Never give up, I'm in the same boat!
Brogoddess ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is so true... I just saw a meme that said “your own friends won’t support you but will DM drake wishing him a happy birthday”
As sad as it is, family and friends will mostly want a free service/ discount before understanding that your hard earned cash and time go into this.
At least for us that know the struggle, we should be more than happy to support our friends.
Glad this was helpful!!
It's so encouraging to hear him say "when we first started doing lashes" lol he's so supportive
Frrrrrr. She does all the work and he does all the talking 😹
That is so true, people will support people who they dont even know and will will never meet before they support their friends and family! 🤷🏼♀️
LashedByStephanie super messed up huh? The only way they will make the switch back to you is once you have proven your success and can make it big. Then everyone will say “we never doubted you and were behind you the whole time.” 💕
@@LivBayLash ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You have put me back on track!
That's the sad truth! I''m experiencing it now. But this too shall pass.
With God everything is possible! I’m truly happy for you guys ❤️
Jennifer Lopez amen!
Me too I'm very happy for y'all and grateful to come across this video
Just started lashing full time and stop working as a waitress and wasn’t sure if I was doing the right thing til you guys have boosted up my confidence and learn so much more thank you 💜💜
Christina Pascascio you are welcome! Glad you are getting the confidence you need and learning a lot from our channel. Just keep pushing forward and most importantly don’t give up right away. 💕
hows it going?
You guys just won me over, I’m legit balling watching the end, I quit my job with just a couple of bucks, single mother of 2 and with a newborn and decided to start lashing, I love it I do mobile but I’m not as busy.. I pray to god I start getting busy to have enough for diapers and not worry! Thank you so much!!! This inspired me so much! You guys rock!!!! Love your lashes btw! I’m not stalking models but I stalk your stories😂
Pups & Pumps awe thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video. Lashing can be super lucrative. If you make a friend with your clients and offer some referral credits for them to refer people to you, you will start getting enough clients that you can make great money and enjoy what you do. Congrats on your new lash journey. Don’t stress about quitting your old job. You can make this work and be a great success at it. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
How is it going?
This message was definitely for me! I graduate from Esthetics school next month and have been lashing for about a year. I’ve been Having trouble building clientele but my husband has been a great support! This struggle has actually made us closer so I am truly encouraged after hearing your story!! 🙌🏽
Nichole Rose we are glad you liked the message. It really helps having a great support system at home like your husband. Keep moving forward and enduring and the clients will eventually come. The number 1 mistake most people make is they give up too early. Those who persevere prevail. 💕
Hey what school did you go to ?
I'm literally crying, can't say how much this inspires me. I don't have much at all, and have only been running around the idea of doing lashes for the past 3 years. I don't want to wait anymore, I feel like fear of failure is the biggest thing that's kept me stuck. Thank you so much for sharing this 🙏🏼
Thank YOU! So much love ❤️
I just love how supportive you guys are. My plans are to have my own lash/esthetics business and being able to work for my own and also help others girls have a job and help them strive, grow and inspire. This is all I ever needed. This definitely confirmed me to go straight to you guys and get my certification for sure ♥️
Awe! Alejandra Ortiz thank you for the kind words. Serving others is so rewarding. We love to see other success stories and can’t wait to see your new business come to fruition!
This is so inspiring! My boyfriend and I watched this together. We definitely related to the broke life and the at-home lashing lmao but honestly this was an eye opener and made me realize that he's my number one supporter when I started lashing. Even all the struggles with money and wanting to put my services out there knowing that clientele will be hard at first, he never gave up and hes always promoting for me as well. You both are the real definition of a #PowerCouple.
Obviously I came to this vid to want to know how you guys became so successful.. but I'm soooo glad that I picked up more on the raw side of the beauty industry because the struggle def is real at first and it still is for me. But this makes me want to push harder and I'm so grateful to have a partner just how Mike is to Shauna who has always supported no matter how hard it got. You both are absolutely amazing! ❤
Hi sarah ferran. Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m happy this video inspired you. Keep pushing forward in your lash journey. There’s always trials to go through in the beginning but just remember that the person that persevere’s always prevails. 💕
Thank you for being sooooo transparent and REAL with all the numbers and all the grit. Thank you so much for all the value!
Carina Ventura of course. Glad you are enjoying our videos. 💕
I am a new lash artist ! I recently qualified in February 2019. Watching this video has motivated and encouraged me so much to keep going. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us all. I have learnt a lot from your channel x
Anj Allure awesome! Congrats on your new lash journey! Glad you are learning so much from the videos! Please let us know if you have any questions.
normally do not comment on videos. But the strength and determination between you guys is contagious inspiration. I think there’s something bigger to take away from their experiences. Love the lashes
Thanks so much! ❤️❤️
I just sold my Apple Watch to pay for some of the supplies I needed 🤧 0 clients. I don’t have too many friends maybe 2 and family is 3hrs away from where I live. I just got certified and honestly you don’t learn a lot when you get trained for 4hrs.. however I purchased a book and I been watching CZcams videos and practicing till 4am sometimes.. This is very motivational video it makes me keep pushing forward. Thank you. ❤️
I am so happy I came across this video today. It gave me the motivation that I’ve needed. I am a lash artist here in LA. I’ve been lashing for a good 4 yrs now. I started JUST like you guys! In a room at my home. Then rented a studio @ Sola salon. It became too expensive for me. So went back to my home. It’s been a real struggle. Married, 2 toddlers & at 1 point 99 cent store cup of noodles and Mac and cheese kept us alive. My husband started a Auto Detailing business (foreign detailing) & we both are working out of our home. I am so thankful to have heard your story & know there is a bright future for me, my family & my business. I can’t wait to come out to Vegas & visit your salon!!! Again, thank you for this whole channel! You both are an inspiration! Btw, I love the couple business partners! That’s amazing!
Wow! This is so encouraging as a new tech! I’m home right now practicing lashes. Nervous about a client tomorrow and came across this video. Thank you 💜💜
Ladykyea Beauty awe! Thank you! Glad the video helped to encourage you. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Ladykyea Beauty congrats hun ,took my class n scared to start 😢😢😢
BreeBretsDesign876 you just have to jump in. Don’t be nervous.
BreeBretsDesign876 we all start somewhere
Sassy Lashes LV 🙏🏾❤️
I love stories like this! I became a self taught MUA 2 years ago (soon to be lash tech) and I’m STILL trying to grow my clientele. I started out charging $25-35 each client, AND I traveled to them 😩 until this day, it’s been so slow for months at a time and I don’t have another job (thank God for my bf) But I definitely been through similar struggles and hearing and seeing you guys’ success is giving me a whole new level of hope! ✨
I love how you share your journey and aspire other people to follow their dreams of being beauty entrepreneurs!
Tara Marie thank you so much for the kind words. We love seeing others get inspired and empowered. 💕
I’m literally going thru the same thing .. I am a mortgage loan officer and I want to be a lash tech . I just so happen to click on on your video. You are so inspirational. I needed this video !!!
Lalonnie Phillips hi. Thank you so much! Glad you found our video. I can totally relate to where you are right now. If your serious about making the switch I would learn how to do lashes and start practicing so you can get good at them while your working your primary job. Eventually you will build up a client base and will be able to determine if your ready to make the full time switch. It can be very scary leaving security at first but it can also be far more rewarding if you find out you are passionate about lashing. Hope this helps. 💕
I'm from the UK and really want to start learning to be a lash tech around my studies. You guys are so inspirational, telling us not to give up even when it seems like there is no way out. You guys are awesome! Wish you the best
History Princess awe!!! Thank you so much for the kind words. This is exactly why we love doing this. Thank you. Thank you! I would definitely recommend learning lashes as a side hustle around your studies to see if you like it. I also recommend following Frankie Widdows. She’s in the UK and been doing this a long time. She’s an expert at lashes and gives great tips and tricks as well. 💕
@@LivBayLash Yay! I got a reply Thank you 😍. I will most defintely check out Frankie widdows. And will keep on pushing forward. A campus full of people is a great customer base! ❤
I’m working at the bank right now and I can’t do it anymore. I have never been the type that could stay in a job long because I can’t stand with working for someone else. I got my esthetician license in April of this year and I want to get my certification for lashes. I’m going full time in September in my business. I have no money saved, I have not a clientele yet but you just boost me. I just need to take that leap of faith and go with God. I didn’t stumble on your channel for nothing. Divine connection. You just got a new subscriber. God bless you!
kym kiswe you hit the nail on the head. Go with God. It doesn’t matter what we want to do. If you trust in God, he will make sure you can make a great living doing something you are passionate about being your own boss. I’m not one to tell someone how to live their life, but if you hate your job at the bank, and don’t enjoy what you do, it’s probably time to take the next step in your career. Just have faith and follow our play book and you will do just fine. Sorry to get too preachy. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Hi guys, just saw this video.
I am in the same position as you guys were in 2011. I am broke, have no money, can’t afford to pay rent or buy any supplies and I have no clients. I live in London, UK, and right now the market is quite competitive. I’ve lost my job due to COVID. However, your story is inspiring to me, I am struggling but watching your video and what you guys went through made me feel that it’s possible to do what you want as long as you have the determination. I am currently taking an online beauty course (March 2020) which includes eyelash extensions, I’ve had clients to practice which were good but could be better of course the more you practice the better you will be, I’m glad I found you guys, watching your video has motivated me to carry on and work hard. Thank you
I'm glad we're able to inspire you and Rubey don't give up and be patient with yourself. You'll get there 💕
I cried so much watching this, thank you for this amazing video
lina _mariaj awe! Glad you enjoyed the video. 💕
6:13 so TRUE they do not I repeat DO NOT inform you that it takes time, it takes spending big money to make money, it's hard! Love y'all's story can definitely relate to A LOT that y'all mentioned.
Ariel Rosales yes. Agreed 100%. Thank you for watching the video. We appreciate your comment because so many new lash artists don’t realize this. 💕
@@LivBayLash so true! Would you still recommend NOW offering $50 lash sets to get practice, get your name out there build clientele?
Ariel Rosales yes. 100%. Build that following and slowly raise your prices. Trust me. The clients will stick around. 💕

I am a college student who has fallen in love with lashing! I am definitely in the beginning stages. Thank you for this.
Alejandra Llerena Correa so good! It can be great supplement income while in school especially if you have a passion for it. 💕
I worked in my house for 2 years, building my clientel, recently my mom was at the dentist and the doctor went crazy with her lashes, stop doing what she was doing on my moms teeth and called right away. After 1 month being my client she offered me a space in one of her clinics. Being kind, being professional, is the way to go, always 100% in every service and one day "luck will knock on your door".
Diana Sa thats so cool! We love hearing stories like this! Congrats girl!! 💕
Thank you for being so raw and uncut. Starting a business is never easy.
You're sooo welcome! we appreciate you so much!!!💗💗💗💗
I’m tearing up !!! Thank you for this😭 I’m so excited to start my brand and lashing but still thinking of all the bad that comes with it. CZcams needs more ppl like y’all ❣️ This video was RAW and RELATABLE! thank you and congrats on all of ur success 🍾

6:53 you had me, omg you are right family and friends are the last to support you. This is so inspiring to chase my goal after giving birth.
yes girl never stop chasing! You'll find the people you need to support your goals and sometimes it may not come from who you want but thats okay just keep going ♥
Hey guys! After watching your video I have to say it’s so refreshing to hear someone tell the truth about starting out! So many places pump her head full of how much money you’re gonna make and then I see girls just get so discouraged and lash less and less and quit! I love that you tell it how it is! I’ve been lashing for 9 months, 5 months full time and I’m an independent contractor and building clients pretty well....with that being said... it really is hard and I had to get creative with advertising! I just keep going and don’t give up! I appreciate your story and congrats on your success! Hopefully I’ll get there one day 🥰
Loretta Hawkins hi. Hi. Thank you for the compliment. Of course you will. Just remember she who perseveres always prevails. Keep watching our videos. There’s a lot of great info that I feel will really help you get to the next level of this business. 💕
"This is how broke we were..." LOL I adore how honest, raw and helpful you guys are. THANK YOU for this.

Thanks for giving me hope.
Josephine Torres don’t give up. I promise it will be worth it. You can make a very lucrative career out of lashes. We loved your comment on calling us your new lash bible. Hang in there mom and let us know if you have questions or need help with anything. 💕
This really inspired me. For years my husband wanted me to start a lash business . I have been dragging my feet but y'all just helped give me a push. Thank yall
that makes us happy, we're glad you were able to take something from this video ♥
Your story is truly inspiring. I’m so glad you share your hardships with such honestly. I really want to own my own business and recently decided to go to school for lashes. I have a career and a recent MBA graduate, but somehow lashes really captures my attention. I pray I can one day share a similar success story. Kudos to you!
Crystal Winters awe! Thank you so much for the kind words. We hope to see you there as well. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕

This video was exactly what I needed. I am on the verge of loosing my business and feel so defeated. I’ve done almost everything in my power not to give up I’ve even had a stroke due to the stress of not wanting to be a failure. I think it’s time for me to start over and continue with what I’m passionate about. Thank you so much for this message and the encouragement you have given me.
BeautybyVero V of course. We can totally relate to the stress you are feeling. Please know that even if you hit the reset button it’s not a failure. It may not look like it now, but I promise the valuable stuff you have learned will be your best friend when you start back up because of the experience you have gained from knowing what will work and what won’t this time. 💕

Going through this, this very moment. Even when I’ve told them it’s for free and I would travel to them even though I live far away from them as I moved away from my home town, they still don’t make themselves available for me. It’s ok though they’ll be chasing me soon ✨🙏🏾
@@Naomi85514 yes they will!!

Y’all spoke to me so much!! I’m 25, just started lashing in June out of my house. Husband and I share a car and are having serious money issues right now. Thank you I feel so motivated!!
Ty and Lexie Montgomery I totally understand where you are. Just remember this whole thing is a mindset. If you believe you can do well. You will. I see new lash artists in the Facebook groups that post about making $3-5k a month in their first few months. We started in the same boat as you and are living proof of how big you can go with this in a short time. 💕
This really helps a lot I bought my first salon in June 2018 the lady I brought the salon from took all of our money and then left taking all the clientele and everything in the salon yet she stated she was leaving everything and the clients as she could no longer work due to health but it was all a trick to get money an pay off her debts and now she is working in another salon round the corner from the salon I bought off her and I have been struggling every time I get new clients she takes them she has stalked all my social media platforms even though I blocked her she gets someone to make fake accounts I have two small children and when I bought my salon I had saved and saved to buy it as a year before myself an my kids had no home we had nothing and I had to work hard to get the money for us to live I also worked things out with their dad so we could have a home again even though he was in the wrong but I worked hard to get money to buy into my own business so I could make a future for my kids and she took everything I’m now in the process of losing my car because I can’t pay for it due to this woman taking everything from me. But I still keep showing up at my salon everyday and sit there most days from early morning till late at night with no clients an I do it because I am committed and post offers and discounted treatments Iv sent out flyers everything an nothing but I still show up everyday I literally have no money left to put into my business and I have considered selling but I keep the faith that things will turn around and get better. My kids dad doesn’t help me at all or support me at all it’s like we live together as a family but we not together so I do everything on my own and I’m not ashamed to admit that because I know I will be able to say to my kids I never gave up no matter how much I lost I kept going and trying for their future
Beautiful life of Kimberley omg. I am so sorry to hear this. What city and state are you in? There has to be a way to get you back on track. No one should have to deal with that slimy bull shit that other owner did to you. 💕
Sassy Lashes Eyelash Extension Salon | Summerlin thank you I love in the UK unfortunately the lady I bought my salon from kept my copy of the contract between myself and her leaving with out any proof of what was included in the sale of the salon I have tried everything but with out my copy of proof nothing can be done. Iv revamped the salon and changed the salon name and signs promoted on social media sent out flyers everywhere. I did special offers on treatments but due to her moving to a salon round the corner and taking all clients she has even posted leaflets through people’s doors where my salon is. I won’t give up though it’s always been my dream to own my own salon and even though it’s getting close to the point I have no option to sell I refuse to give up
Beautiful life of Kimberley I’m sincerely sorry about this. I truly want to not only see you get your business on track but also beat her in business so bad that she has to close. Trust me Karma is going to floor her when she is least expecting it. Hang in there. This is going to make you mentally tougher and you will be able to overcome anything! 💕
Sassy Lashes LV thank you so so much means a lot. I won’t give up I also believe in karma. Your videos have helped a great deal in helping me to keep going
I hope your salon is thriving now!
Your Talking to Me!!! Thanks I needed this!
WHOOO! It's wide open girl!
This just happened to pop up as I was watching another video. At the end when you said your not sure who this message was for I immediately thought me. I thank you for sharing your journey, and for the encouragement to keep pushing on. God is truly amazing and timing is all in his hands

Love 💗💗💗💗
Broke and feeling like a big time failure right now, this is totally for me. Have a bachelors degree and healthcare management but that didn’t work out at all! Now starting lashes and I’m not even that young… it’s definitely super overwhelming but I have to make it work. Yay for me 😅
We feel for you boo!! You got this 💪 you can do it and will be so successful. Keep pushing 😘😘 We believe in you!
this seemed like more of a story on how you guys started not actually a how to start with advice and all that but thank you!
For real lol
Thanks for the feedback & listening. Regardless it’s pretty inspiring ❤️👏🏼
So nice to see real people. I have my own business, and I like you had to figure out everything and it is not easy and certainly something you must have passion for!
I look forward to meeting you in person one day!
I commend you for sticking firm and not giving up, God doesn't give us the dream without the ability to achieve it.
Someone once told me there are two types of people, one finds an excuse - one finds a way, you the one who found your way to success! Congrats - and thank you for reaching out to help others, not many people would do that.
Your awesome!

Happy to hear that ♥♥
I absolutely love every video yall share with us, so much real information, I'm just starting as a side job to help, I have a special needs daughter who I love so much but have to keep home with me, I just want to work from home for now and eventually later down the road be able to open up my own place, I do this for my daughter I want a job where I can help my husband financially but have my daughter with me also and I realized I'm very blessed because actually the people that have come the most to try the lashes is my family, from my sister to aunts and neighbors, can't wait to have a lot more clients and see this grow and with Gods grace it will ;)
Lizbeth Molina amen. With God’s grace it definitely will. Excited to see others progress in their lash career. Thank you for watching our videos. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Thanks so much for your inspiring podcast. I have been a Hairstylist for many years now. I too live here in Vegas. I just took a lash class last month, and also felt like Shauna when I was done.Didn't teach me much at all! I received 3 different lash certificates though... Even though I learned very little, but me being a fast learner. I was determined to learn how to isolate. I have been focused and will continue to focus until I see this thing through! I watch all types of professional lash videos. I too will be a Successful Lash salon owner/ Have a lash school/ all types of lash products & make 10 figures... I am determined🙏🏾 I love that saying Shauna said of " You grow through, What you go through" Thanks Shauna & Mike Jones for your inspiring message. I love how you kept it real and honest! May God continue to best you in all of your business endeavors.... I have subscribed to your podcast and will continue to watch and grow from them, thanks! You are a God sent 🙏🏾 Peace & Love ✌🏾❤
Aww thank you so much, we appreciate your sweet words♥ All the practice and you will get it down, thats why we make videos for people who may have no learned all the needed to so you guys have something to fall back on if you need a refresher♥
I don't know how I found this video. But I remember finding you in instagram and having my lashes done by you in your house. Wow you have come so so far. God bless you 🙏
Wow I just became addicted and gonna go watch every single episode!
So I'm not alone in this process! I will not give up! Thank you, guys 💛💛💛💜💜💜
this is such a thriving industry there is so much room for everyone, including you, to win!
Hi, I just came across your channel and I am so glad I did. I have been a manicurist for over 20 years and last year decided to get my Esthetician license because I wanted to do lashes. You are so right about the schools not teaching all of the fundamentals of lashes and if you want to learn lashes you have to pay extra to the school which I think is BS because if lashes is within your scope of practice than it should be taught from start to finish in the beauty schools. I have been getting discouraged regarding my lash journey and I feel like I am just not getting it. But watching you and your husband talk about your lash journey has inspired me. Thank you P.S. You guys are hilarious too!!!
Thank you so so much for watching! Wishing you so much success
I watched this video again and I’m crying. I’m not going to quit 💪🏻
I’m on my treadmill watching lash videos and this one came up. Reason for everything 🙏🏻
Cindy Griffith-Allen that a girl! Persistence beats resistance. 💕
This has really pushed me to keep going 🥹 I gave up once but won’t give up on lashing again. Thanks a million guys 🤞🏾🥰🥰🥰🙏🏾
Omg I love you guys! Thank you guys for sharing your journey! A true inspiration. I was truly at the end of my ropes in this business. I was certified a little over a year ago and haven’t been able to build my clientele. I have been totally frustrated and contemplating given up, but you guys truly inspired me to keep going! Thank God I stumbled onto this channel!
Love the support system you guys have! Love how Mike knows all the Lash Tech Terminology! Fucking awesome!!
Pebbles Marmolejos awe thank you! We love inspiring other lash artists. We love the feedback. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕

__simplyMC yes! Trust me when I tell you it’s totally worth it once you endure through the learning process. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
I’ve been a hair stylist for 26 years. Have recently considered lashing. I am very thankful to y’all for helping and sharing what you have learned through first hand experience. Thank you so much for the inspiration.
Thats awesome, thank you for watching our video! We're happy we can shed some inspiration ♥
This is the sign I’m praying for. I am now starting my own lashes business and I started it for free. I have 1 kid and I’m a full time mom who wants to start something for herself (self growth).
You got this babe! We believe in YOU! 💞
I enjoyed every minute of this video. It’s crazy how, my husband and I also lived in Vegas in 2010-2015. Was totally broke and couldn’t afford eating at Taco Bell. Walking to the strip was a FREE get away we gave ourselves to not lose our sanity. Today, we’re back in Cali and preparing to open a Microblading business. Your story resonates with me so much that I couldn’t help but share. I’m humbled by how you and your wife fought through those trials. Your wife looks at you with so much love and respect. The support you give each other truly is your winning token. I’m glad I found your channel and I’m truly happy for the both of you. I know one day my husband and I will have a similar video to share about our experiences.
Simplystreetchic Aw thank you so much and thank you for sharing a piece of your story with us ❤️ were rooting for you and your husband for success in your microblading business ❤️
Needed to hear this. Such an inspiration, me and my spouse are going through the same exact thing but is making us more closer than ever. We have each-others back and no matter what we have to stay positive through it all. Thank you for sharing your story
Thank you, Mike and I appreciate your support. Stay close to each other and balance one another out, it helps ♥
Your video is so touching and inspiring. Im interested in becoming a lash tech and watched a ton of videos before starting. I’ve really learned a lot from watching your video. I’m a make up artist and hairstylist now and my business is so slow. I wanted to do lashes because i love beauty and this video you shared really helped me a lot. I really love how you and your husband are so open to sharing your life journey. You guys are REALLY REALLY Strong.Thank you so much and keep being motivated and successful.
Giamsemì Lynn thank you so much for the kind words. We sincerely appreciate that. I can tell you that the lash industry is growing and that if you are passionate about it, then it can be very lucrative and rewarding. Thank you for watching our videos. Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Hi guys, thank you soo much for the honest video! I am going to take a course in lashing and hopefully start my business from my bedroom. This video has made me hungry to get started and find clever solutions to my unforeseen problems, that I’m sure I will face. I’m looking forward to watching more of your videos! Thank you soo much
Just found this channel and I love it how real y’all are
Thank you ❤️
I am planning to start my lash business currently, and I layout all the expenses in doing it at home, and I feel like crying because I dont have the luxury to start even a small business... :( And then I bumped on you vid and Im so inspired with your work. I want to be like you...
You guys are awesome. Period. It’s obvious that you work so well together. Definitely an inspiration. Subscribed. 💯
Khrystal Wharton awe! Thank you so much! 💕
Wow. I'm a beauty therapist from the UK and I'm opening my own salon soon ! This was very insightful and inspiring. Thank you for sharing this with us. Love you guys! Xxx
thank you so much ♥
i ABSOLUTELY love how supportive her husband is! He has taken the time to understand her passion!
Aww thank you so much 💖
I got emotional watching this .. I just had my son & was trying to add services so I could avoid putting my baby in daycare, I saved and saved to take a lash class & ended up spending money without alot of knowledge but I practiced & ended up getting like 2 loyal clients ! I’m still struggling to get clients and I got discouraged and quit but I love lashing so much and this helped me want to push harder
Never give up love! You got this 💕
This has helped me so much as I come from a huge family and before I became a MUA they use to pay other MUA'S to do their makeup. Now they all want their makeup for little or nothing and they are not thinking about my cost for products and if I have food in my cupboard. Thank you so much for sharing your story.
Makeup by ChristyJ you are very welcome! And we know how that can be, not receiving support from friends and family is tough. Set boundaries and don’t work for free you’re time is valuable ❤️
@@LivBayLash thank you so much sweetie.
Thank you for doing this video and encouraging us. I too took a one day course of 6 hours and felt like I didn’t know what I was doing because the instructor didn’t teach on every aspect of the job; such as isolating lashes, cleaning them... she only showed us how to apply an individual lash for a classic look and let us practice just that, though the certification was for classic and volume lashes. She showed us how she makes her fans for volume lashes but never had us practice making them nor applying them 😏
Hi my name is Skyla I’m currently going to school for esthetics , I want to start a lash business , I work at a restaurant for 2 days and go to school for 5 I’m a single mom and life has just been SO HARD and watching this video Gives me hope thank you!❤️❤️

I love how transparent and real you guys are!! The beauty industry is so competitive.. hearing your story is so inspiring (gives me hope that I can eventually get where I want to be!!). 💗
Madison Nederveld yes. And it’s about to be wide open once things open back up. There will be a lot of new market share available. Kind of like hitting the reset button all over again. 💕

Awe, thank you so much!! 🥰 we appreciate hearing this! 🙏
This was the first video I watched from you guys and it was when I realized how humbling this whole experience has been. We’re literally creating our own brand and with that comes a lot of hardships. It helps to know we’re not alone. I am so proud of how far you’ve come and you will continue to have all of my support!! Love you guys!!! This is my favorite video ever! ❤️
Juanita Hernandez awe! Thank you so much! Please let us know if you have any questions. 💕
Listening to this honestly made me cry. You guys are truly an inspiration and I wish you nothing but continued success and happiness. Yessss, this hit me from the beginning. I just started lashing and I feel like I’m failing !
DivineNessa When you first lashing it can be a struggle and super frustrating. Just keep practicing on anyone and everyone. You’ll get it down 💕
Idk how i found this video, but you both made me feel 100% better about my lash business its been a long road...Congratulations on the success of your company.
Aw thank you!
It's SO true what you said about friends and family are the LAST to support you! Just starting out with my lash business and this is a brilliant informative video, congrats guys on your success!!
Thank you for sharing your guys journey with us. It definitely encourages me not to give up. I'm barely starting this lashing buisness and I can relate to everything you guys have talked about. Especially when you think friends and families would support you the most but that isn't always the case. I love the support you two have for each other and thank you for continuously showering us with tips and tricks!
Thank you so much! You will find the people who will support your business I promise, sometimes it just comes from someone unexpected. Good luck on your journey and we wish you all the success♥
Haha I love how real you guys are and that you can look back on the struggle and laugh at it now 🙌🏻
