Holiday tips

Holiday tips for lash studios


In winter, especially in November and December, Lash Studios are flooded with clients. However, the impressive number of visitors does not mean that you need to forget all the worries of a stable customer flow. You should remember that the sharp decline of clients in January (or lack thereof) depends on your marketing decisions in October and November.
Very often eyelash extension studios cannot track their clients during the winter bustle just before the New Year. They don’t know who the client is, how they have found out about the studio or whether they are new or a regular. This is important, because some people, for example, only do their lashes once in winter as an annual ritual.
Often lash studios neglect such clients, and that is an absolutely wrong approach. Each of them should be important to the company. Each visitor – whether a regular or a new one – pays for the services, and all of them need to be taken care of without exceptions. When trying to attract new clients to your lash studio never forget about your regulars.

• Package deals

December promotional deals can be offered for just about any type of services. For example, you can offer eyebrow correction free of charge with a classic extension or free decoration with volume extensions. This way the client will see real savings in choosing a package deal. Moreover, the studio can afford offering December deals without fear of inflicting financial damages on itself, as it compensates for the workload before the holidays.
On the eve of winter, a lash studio owner needs to think about December clients in October or November in order to avoid a decline in January and the problems that accompany such decline.
Offering your own money-equivalent items such as gift certificates is an enticing marketing choice for January and first part of February. You can offer every client who visits your studio from December 15 to December 31 a certificate of $30 or more. This gift certificate can only be used within a specific time limit typically during the predicted decline period. The first stage typically takes place in the first two weeks of January, and the second one lasts until mid February.
It may seem that these gift cards come with a large cost to your business, but it only seems that way. Providing the clients with a specific amount instead of a more abstract percentage discount incentivises a client to spend this amount (and more) on your cervices. In return you receive a cash flow that more than covers the discounted amount.
One of the advantages of a gift certificate is that your regular client can give it away to their friends or relatives, providing you with a flow of visitors. This gives you confidence that after the holidays people will come to your studio and you will see some fresh face among them.
The amount you are willing to allocate on gift certificates should be calculated based on previous years’ experience. This way not you do you get the metrics right, but also track the return on your investment and how the promotion performs.
Do not confuse gift certificates with coupons. The audience of sites offering coupon are people constantly hunting for discounts, and they are not (nor will they become) your customers.

• Gift sets

Winter is the gift season. It is the time any self-respecting supplier creates various home care kits on December holidays’ eve, which customers can buy as a present for their relatives and friends.
The gift set should be handed over in branded packaging and at a cost favourable for the buyer. This way, you will both win points with your clients and increase sales in one fell swoop. Customers who bought such a set are also likely to return to your lash studio afterwards buy the same eyebrow pencil or eyelash shampoo, for example. But this time they will be doing so at a retail price.
Winter gift sets can be put together with whatever products you have on-hand in your studio. Usually there are always products that are stocked in abundance for various reasons like eyelash foam or facials. They can be used as pieces of a gift set for the client.

• Appreciation tokens

Other holidays should also be factored in your marketing plan, including those that come well before the December holiday season like Thanksgiving.
You can organize all-prize lotteries for clients and give them small souvenirs like product samples, hair combs, certificates for extension correction, etc. The key thing in such drawings are guaranteed prizes and a pleasant experience for your clients.

• Cross promotions

Cross-marketing in the salon business should approached be with great caution to avoid nonsensical advertising moves along the lines of, “buy a car and get a free t-shirt.” Large differences in perceived value between the purchase and the gift will only irritate your customers.
When choosing a cross-promotion partner you should avoid companies who offer services which have little or no overlap with the ones you offer like restaurants, clothing stores, etc. A specialized massage studio, for instance, will make for a much more successful cross-promotional partnership.

We hope these tips will help you keep the client traffic to your lash studio flowing!

Why this kind of events become more and more popular all over the world and why so many people want to try themselves in this disciplines? I hope the article below will be informative for those who never took part in lash championships.


The Basic Information about Eyelash Extension Championships

Lash Championships are made to unite people in lash industry and are called upon greatly raise the quality of lash-makers’ work.

All championships have different categories for participants and different nominations. They can differ from one championship to another but in general they’re all similar. There are Junior category, Masters, Experts and sometimes more. Category depends on a working experience of the participant – years of trainer’s status.
Nominations are different too. There can be Classic, 2D (or sometimes 2-3D), 3-5D volume, Mega volume, Fantasy lash decoration and online competitions. Sometimes on lash championships there are brow nominations too. Every nominations is chargeable, but the more you take – the less you pay.

 

“I’m scared…”

Believe me, 99 out of 100 people are scared to take part in the championship. I was scared all the time. But that’s the point – you go there also to fight your fears and gain self-confidence, because you get a new level in the career anyway.

To make it more easy – just imagine – there are about 5 people for one cup (sometimes even less!), so if you prepare, take training, try to be a tiny bit better and more confident – you have more chances!

 

The process

First of all and the most important is to read the conditions of the competition. Often in technical nominations there is a difference from what you do every day for your clients, but you have to follow main criteria. The winner gets more points and points you get from following the criteria. Use creativity, but don’t get too much over the main technical requirements.

 

A place for creativity and originality

In Fantasy lash decoration nomination the most important parts are originalty of the idea, complexity of a decoration, Integrity of the image. There are also additional criteria: hair styling, make-up, costume etc. It requires high professionalism too. To earn more points you’d need to get ready on all this items.

If you’re not skillful enough in hairdressing or makeup it’s better to find a team of skillful specialists. Crating the whole image is a very demanding work and victory will depend on your ability to work in a team.

 

Technical nominations

In Classic nomination there are also such things to get points like general impression too so be careful to choose the right effect to your model. Among other criteria there are  “glued natural eyelashes”, “cleanliness of work”, “contact surface”, “volume”, “eye modeling”, “symmetry” and an important assessment of the technique (“distance from the eyelid”, “direction”, “smooth outline”). If you’re not familiar with this criteria to a championship there are special training where your trainer will explain in details all the criteria requirements and will show right and wrong in other’s and maybe your work.

One of the important moments that greatly influences your victory is your model.  Your model has to be perfect – a beautiful woman with nice strong not too thick eyelashes, interesting slit, comfortable natural curl etc.
Some participants get surprised when know about this requirements, but think of it from another side – you’ll never see a model in makeup with a bad skin condition or a hair stylist’s model with damaged hair. Here it’s the same, people have to see all the beauty of your work and the best of your skill to create extensions.

The judges are usually more loyal to junior participants as they don’t have a lot of experience, although with high competition there may be more rigorous selection. Anyway with healthy nerves and good preparation you can do a tidy job.

In Volume extensions sometimes there are limitations in participant’s experience. In Lash Global Championship Juniors are not allowed to take part in Mega Volume eyelash extension. The choice is more strict. You have to make accurate fans (no pre-made fans allowed) but despite you have more time then in Classic, to make a flawless work under stress, put a fan on every lash can make only a qualified experienced technician.

After a special before-championship training and a stressful limited in time work on a championship even those who couldn’t make a qualitative and fast work before accelerate and make a better quality work. Even one championship greatly changes you and your lashing for the better.

 

Advances

Lash championship is a great chance to fight your fears and know for sure what are your strong and weak sides, accelerate your work and enhance your status as a lash-maker in your city. You’ll meet a lot of people of lash industry not only from your city or country but from all over the world!

Even if the participant does not become a winner, he will for sure learn not only to speak in public, but also to behave more concentrated under any extreme circumstances. The competition provides an opportunity to adequately estimate competitiveness, analyze not only your skills, but also the skills of the winner, plan further training, understand what was is missing on the way to success. It is always possible to consult the judge about possible mistakes and work on them.
For organizers of the competitions it is an event of a great importance, maybe even more than for the participants themselves. The development of a new industry, which is becoming even more popular, thanks to competitions, the identification of promising and talented masters both among professionals and juniors, gives the opportunity to proudly call the work of a lash-maker a prestigious profession.

For the winner the competition is the title and reward from the organizers and sponsors, a solid addition of confidence and popularity among colleagues and customers, a rise in career one step higher and many unique and profitable offers from large companies.

To start your path to victory the main thing is to find the courage to try your hand, not coming up with an excuse for workload, lack of finance, time, etc. Consult an expert, simple advice from professionals takes a little time. If there is an opportunity to pass training one or more days from a qualified specialist who has experience in this matter – use it (our eyeelash training info you can find here). Pay attention to the selection of models for the contest, very carefully and meticulously take this choice. Track the time of your full set from start to finish, then according to the criteria analyze the errors and work out. Work out to automatism in order to prevent any situation that can knock you out of balance and clarity. Believe me, nobody has ever managed to lose with the ideal work or to win with a bad quality work and an inharmonious image of the model.

You have to pay attention to all the details. It happens that there is a big competition and because of the slightest, smallest imperfections  you  don’t get only one piont that distances you from a winning place. BUT in these cases the judges and organizers try to praise this people somehow.

If you have at least a drop of talent you won’t leave unnoticed and if you think it already had happened you have to improve yourself, add patience, information from training, use help and work out.

If you keep trying your efforts you won’t leave without your reward no matter if it’s a winning place on a championship, financial independence or  general acceptance.

GOOD LUCK!

About us

Hey-hey! My name is Hanna, I was born in Belarus and lived there over 20 years. I started business in 2013 in Grodno, Belarus. I received training in hairdressing, makeup, nails (European degrees), and courses in brow modelling and microblading, all kinds of depilation and mehndi design. But Lash making was always my real passion.

My vocation as a teacher is to provide unique strongest practical and knowledge base with continuous support after the course as well as raising the next generation of top quality lash artists, lash champions, and brilliant trainers.

Angel Wings® is an international company that provides top quality eyelash extension services, supplies and training with head office in Montreal, Canada. We are proud of our responsible approach, high standards and outstanding client care. We are aware that quality, consistency, good stock availability, not being overpriced and customer care make business outstanding. We passionately love what we do and want to share this love and passion with other lash artists!

After I moved to Canada and started working in 2017 I re-branded my company, created something much bigger and better. We have amazing distributors from Canada to Australia! Now our popularity grows all over the world as we connect lash technicians in several ambitious projects.
– Lash global™ Championship – the biggest international championship in Canada
– Lash Global Conference – the biggest international conference in Canada
– Lash Global magazine – the 1st international lash magazine that is based in Canada, started January 2018 and is issued in over 1000 copies at the moment
– CatFight™ Championship series online – a unique project of championship series that are divided to independent Rounds, that have different rules, different judges and different prizes. It is very affordable and fast going. Started March 2018
– Lash Expert™ platform – online training and lessons for lash artists of any experience
…and we have even more projects coming in the near future!

Also I was:
– Nominated by Lash Industry Inspirational Person Awards for Most inspirational industry influencer 2018
– Nominated by Artistic Fur Awards for Lash Trainer of the year 2019
– Nominated at National Association of Lash Artists for Lash Trainer of the year 2019

– Nominated by Artistic Fur Awards for Lash Speaker of the year 2022

QUALITY FREAK

My idea of quality services and supplies.

I never wanted to work with cheap, low quality supplies or to do a very inexpensive (and, as a result, inferior) work. I’m a quality freak. That’s why I went to championships to learn what I’m worth. My prices have always been premium, but my clients know what they are paying for. Currently Angel Wings does not accept new clients and only provides services to our regular customer base.

Applying this idea of perfect quality to lash supplies, I had a vision to create the best line of lash product to work with. As a multiple lash champion and prize winner I received lots of presents and had a chance to try many brands some of them good and others not so good. I put together all desired qualities like 20-line boxes, non-sticky covers, no glue residue, absolute minimum of short defective lashes in a lash tray, a uniform curl, a good grip, keeping the curl well, and many others. I have spent time collecting my expert knowledge about lash supplies. After 8 more months of testing and research I was able to design the product line I had dreamt of.

From Champion to champions.

Our adhesive is made on Korean factory for my special demand.

It was first made in 2017 to match the needs of Lash Championship participants. As a Champion myself, Judge and Sponsor I gave it to the winners of Strictly come lashes championship, UK, the best try I could have and surprisingly it became and still is our best seller. It went through a few adjustments. There were 2 main types in the beginning I was choosing from to find the final one. Now I have stopped on the formulation I personally and most of my old buyers like most.
I care and love my vocation, so it makes me extremely proud to offer Angel Wings product line I have created.

EDUCATION

I never considered getting noticed or being invited to events by other technicians. However, in only one year I’ve become a judge and a speaker in over 30 international lash events and a highly demanded trainer.
I understand that staying in one place in the lash industry makes the value of your work steadily decline. New trends emerge and new techniques appear all the time. Additional information gets revealed be it new facts about the lash glue or something entirely novel, which requires further study and experimentation.
This is what draws me as a speaker to be one of the people who does research for the benefit of our industry, brings up and pours light on new and unexplored topics.
The idea of offering fellow lash artists something new and useful is truly inspiring to me.
That’s why I aim to create many ways to share the knowledge. Lash Global championship and conference brings together the best lash specialists from all over the world. Also I have launched an online platform for courses and lessons. Aside from that I offer many absolutely free options to learn including my YouTube channel, professional blog, Facebook and Instagram community groups, as well as Lash Global magazine.
Training is all about innovation. Classic and Volume extensions are already old news. Nowadays most of the clients want volume extensions. But to provide this service new lash technicians need to go through two periods of training (classic and then volume) and spend a significant amount of time practicing before they start their volume course. My innovative program including both classic and volume online courses saves the student time and money. I collect my knowledge all over the world and add my own experience and inventions. This allows my students achieve better results faster.

Overall, we offer many other live and online unique training courses with the information you will never find on other lash courses including:

– Photo portfolio for lash artist
– Special effects in eyelash extensions (Volume advanced training)
– Expert volume (mega volumes and volume quality perfection)
– Expert modeling – detailed styling analysis
– One-hour volume speed-up
– Championship preparation
– Training trainers and trainers certification
– Lash Expert special lessons online
