A: At 50 years old, I started going to school to become a master esthetician. When we began to learn about lash extensions, it was instant—I was hooked! I inhaled the information and went for it. All or nothing. I practiced, read, and researched products. You could say it was "love at fi rst lash." I began to notice there weren't any products on the market that really helped me become the best lash artist I knew I could be. From there I got to work! I was thrilled as I discovered ways to help shave down my time, with minimal product waste, while maintaining quality. I knew these discoveries would help other lash artists as well. I wanted to help others make more money, spend more time with their families, fi nd true purpose in this industry, and leave a positive impact in their lives. That is how LashBomb was born. Q: What should estheticians know before deciding to o er lash extension services? A: Lashing is very tedious and takes an incredibly detail-oriented person. I would be lying if I said it wasn't hard. It is hard. Be grateful that it is diffi cult to master. If it was easy, everyone would do it! The greatest parts about being a lash artist are that you can take your trade with you anywhere, your clients come back to you every 2–3 weeks, and they're walking advertisements for your business. Q: What makes LashBomb unique in the market? A: LashBomb isn't your average lash product lineup. Our products work as a system. They complement each other to make your lashing more effi cient—saving you time and money. We also have a cosmetic chemist we work with and are proud to say many of our products are made in the United States. Q: What do you predict will be the next big lash trend? A: We are discovering technology to help clients see what lash extensions would look like on them before they commit to the service.
