Mastering Lash Lift: Key Lessons from a Lash Lift Disaster and Tips to Avoid Common Mistakes

by Team Novoqueen on February 15, 2024

Hello my Queen!

In the world of beauty, success stories often dominate the spotlight, but what about the moments of struggle and growth behind the scenes? Today, I'm sharing a raw and important experience from my journey in the lash industry—a story of over-processing an influencer's lash lift.

The Influencer Connection

As my brand gained traction, I encountered the opportunity to work with influencers. One such collaboration proved to be both exhilarating and challenging.

When the influencer first approached me, it was a big deal. But our collaboration had a rocky start. I accidentally over-processed her lashes just before her vacation. The guilt was crushing, especially since I didn't know how to fix it.

However, from that mistake came inspiration. I vowed to find a solution, not just for myself, but for other lash artists too. And so, the Unlift Masterclass was born—a way to help artists save damaged lashes and learn from my experience.

What began as a disaster turned into an opportunity for growth. It showed me the importance of resilience and innovation in the beauty industry. Now, through the Unlift Masterclass, I hope to empower others to overcome setbacks and thrive in their lash careers.

The Setback

However, amidst the success, a setback occurred. Despite my expertise, I over-processed the influencer's lash lift, leading to undesirable outcomes. The guilt and shame I felt were overwhelming. As a mentor and trainer in the industry, I faced immense pressure to uphold a flawless reputation.

"Transparency is key: acknowledge setbacks openly and use them as opportunities for growth."

Learning and Growth

Yet, from this setback emerged valuable lessons. I delved into research, understanding the intricacies of lash lift chemistry and technique. Through trial and error, I developed the Unlift technique, emphasizing lash health and safety. My journey became a testament to the importance of transparency and continuous learning in the beauty industry.

"Keep showing up, keep being present, and learn from those moments."

The Blessing in Disguise: The Unlift Technique

Amidst the turmoil of over-processing, a silver lining emerged—the birth of the Unlift technique. This revolutionary approach empowers lash technicians with the knowledge and expertise to confidently address over-processing and chemical burns. Through the Unlift masterclass, I share these transformative techniques, offering a beacon of hope and empowerment to lash artists worldwide. Read more about the Unlift Masterclass here
