HOW IT STARTED...
Hey babes, BB here just writing you today to let you know that you CAN DO IT. Do not let anyone or anything stop you from chasing your dream. I was working a full time 9-5 job when I got trained in lashes back in Oct2017. I literally hated my job, yea I SAY I WORKED "9-5" but really I worked 7-4 LOL yea I know, so freaking early. I dreaded waking up for work and keep in mind I worked with nothing but men in a dealership (yes, there are women who worked there as well but not in the showroom). So right before my nephew was born I'm like "maybe I should start lashing" it was "newer" at the time and I knew I had the patience for it and enjoyed getting mine done myself so I thought mhmmm why not. So I took that step and took my first class and paid a little over $800 just for classic training. I look back now and I'm like damn that was a lot. But a few weeks into lashing as my time and sets got better I uped my price from a $50 special to $70, which still isn't bad. I started in the living room of my moms house and would even rotate from the living to her room (sorry mom lol). So December rolled around and I got pretty busy and I would only lash after work and weekends. I thought to myself "I wonder how much I could make if I started lashing full time and quit my job". At work I made a prediction sheet and put some numbers together and tbh It was looking pretty good and I showed my mom and she was like "yea that's good". So around feb/apr I quit my full time job and just started lashing. At first I regretted it bc I wasn't making any money and at this point I had already moved out of my moms house and I was living on my own with my sister, so I had more bills to pay not just my car. I thought to myself "patience is key" and with patience and hella marketing I finally had clients rolling in daily and lashing has honestly changed my life. I could never go back to working for someone else, working long 12hr shifts, working a job I didn't enjoy, working a normal job.
I hope you enjoyed my little story on how I started, and I hope this motivates you to just go out and DO IT, whatever it is. Do what you love sis!
