FOR THE CLIENT: FINDING THE RIGHT LASH ARTIST
Finding the right lash artist can be daunting, but we have the advice you need to make your decision simple. This post is titled “for the client” but as lash artists these tips are great to keep in mind so you know what the client is looking for when finding an artist and in return creating return customers. Knowing how to find the right artist is also helpful if you find yourself looking to refer clients to a trusting artist. Let’s get into it:
Social MediaSocial media is the number one way to research salons and lash artists because it’s simple and reliable. There are so many social media platforms but the most common platforms used by artists are Facebook and Instagram. Use hashtags to search for artists based on your location and examine their pictures for quality and style. Some examples of helpful hashtags include: #lashessential #classiclashes #utahlashes. Some salons and lash artists are featured on google or yelp which is a helpful resource and great place to check reviews.
Word of MouthIf you’re interested in eyelash extensions it’s likely that you’ve seen them before or you know someone who currently wears eyelash extensions. Ask them who their lash artist is! Keep your eyes out for quality work and take note of names and places that you are hearing more than once. This is a great tip because you can see what you’re getting before you get them and it makes it easier to trust your lash artist if someone can vouch for them. As a lash artist, this is one of the greatest ways to get new clients!
Ask questionsOnce you’ve narrowed your search down to an artist or two, ask questions! Ask about how long they schedule their services for, their prices, their training credentials, their schedule availability, and any other questions that will make your decision easy and comfortable! You can even take it one step further and schedule a consultation before your appointment to see if they are going to be a good fit. Consider these questions and ask yourself if they are the right lash artist for you.
