Your Lash Salon Set Up Guide

Prep for Success: Your Ultimate Guide to Organizing Your Lash Space for Seamless Appointments

You know the saying, "Fail to plan, plan to fail"? It’s not just a cliché; it’s super relevant to your lash extension appointments too. Let’s dive into how setting up properly can help you deliver top-notch service with Classic Eyelash Extensions, Volume Lashes, and more, without breaking a sweat!

Why Bother with Setup?

Without a good setup, you're just asking for stress. No client wants to waste time while you scramble to find what you need. A neat and organized setup, whether you're at a salon or working from home, gives off a great first impression. Plus, it keeps everything clean and tidy—like, if you’ve cleaned your tweezers but leave them out in the open, they might not stay as clean as you think. Investing in proper tweezer storage is a game-changer!

Tip 1: Good Storage

We've covered eyelash extension storage before, but here’s the quick scoop: keep your supplies accessible and organized. Check out simple, budget-friendly furniture from places like Ikea for storing extra stock, bed covers, and pillowcases. If space is tight, consider cute storage boxes under your lash bed—just make sure there’s still room for your legs! A good beauty bed cover will help keep things looking neat.

Tip 2: Manage Your Stock

Lash tech’s life means avoiding having surplus stock, especially with products like Lash Glue and eyelash extension remover. Streamline your lash extension collection based on what you use most—whether it’s for Classic Lash Extensions, wispy hybrid lashes or Volume Lashes, go for mixed length trays for flexibility and to save space, opting for single length trays only when you know exactly what you need and use the most.

Tip 3: Lash Palettes

Lash palettes are a total time-saver! If you have regular clients, dedicate a palette for each. Arrange lashes by length and curl, and use a palette organizer to keep them tidy between appointments. Label each palette with tape and your lash mapping pen to keep track of what’s what. Setting up a palette only takes a few minutes and makes your work with eyelash extensions much smoother and more efficient.

Tip 4: Take Your Time

Between appointments, use 10-15 minutes to reset your space. Stretch, hydrate, grab a snack, and tidy up. Replace bedrolls, disinfect your tools, and straighten up your trolley. Don’t forget to clean your Glamcor Light and tidy up your eyelid tape and lash cleanser. This quick reset helps you stay organized and ready for your next client.

In the end, a well-organized setup not only saves you time and stress but also leaves a fantastic impression on your clients. Plus, it helps you keep track of your stock and avoid wasting products like Lash Glue or your favorite lash extension remover!
