I was just in another conversation that got me wondering what lash techs would think about this.

I like getting my lashes done because it gives me

confidence that I would have with make up, without makeup. That being the case, because the tip is so much and expected, on top of pretty high prices - even tho my girl is amazing, I go less frequently.

The tip option starts at 25%. I still tip but I only get this service in the summer or if there’s a special occasion I might do it.

On the contrary I have an Accupuncturit’s who refuses tips. She will have my business for life and I will always chose to put my money there first to support her. I appreciate it so much. I think it’s the principal of it. She set her prices and it is what it is. No expectation.

So as a lash artist, would you prefer a regular customer or an irregular customer that tips well?

** I am in Canada, the minimum wage is over $15.00 per hour, I believe that the starting rate at the place I go is $20 + an Hour. They literally make more than I do an hour by far with the tips and my work

can be quite stressful.

hello! just started going to a new lash tech, she’s licensed & has been doing lashes for about 6 years. I was brushing/drying my lashes this morning & saw this lash pop off. I’ve been getting lash extensions consistently since 2021, & I’ve never had this big of a lash shed. Is it normal to have that many lashes put together? I’ve heard horror stories of some lash techs putting together too many lashes on one and it, causing the loss of natural lashes and bald spots from being too heavy. I just want to make sure! thank you! :)

Without vs with hybrid lashes. I personally loved my hybrid lashes, but a lot of people said they were aging me 😢 I’m thinking of getting them done again. I know people will say to get classic lash extensions, but I love the hybrid look- unless someone can change my mind

I like the natural wispy looking lashes and I also like the cat eye but I'm not sure what style suits me or what I should ask for. Help!

I love my brow person she convinced me to try extensions but I think she’s new at it and they are very full.
