Personal stories
Many potential clients are interested in eyelash extension specialists not just as a professional, but also as a person. In search of “their” lash maker, clients pay attention not only to his qualifications, experience and examples of work, but also to his character, appearance, opinion on a particular situation, etc. Therefore, each master in his account should not dryly present only services, but also to share a part of yourself so that clients understand that on the other side of the screen there is a living person with his own story. Let's look at life situations that a lash maker can share on his Instagram account.
Path in the profession
A short story about how you decided to become an eyelash extension specialist, what prompted you to change your line of work, and how you achieved your goals. Where did you start, what did you continue with, how did you get to the point where you are now. Success stories are very popular among Instagram users.
How did your family and friends react to your choice of profession?
There is an opinion among many people that this profession is not worthy of much respect, like any other in the service sector. Therefore, almost every beauty artist has probably encountered misunderstanding and skepticism from parents and friends. Tell us about how you informed your family and friends about your decision, what arguments and reasons you gave for working in the beauty industry, whether those around you changed their opinion about this type of income, etc.
Work and family - how do you maintain balance?
Agree, many lash makers come to this field after maternity leave. Someone starts working part-time while still on maternity leave, someone simply rethinks their career and decides to do something that would bring not only money, but also pleasure. If you have a husband and children, share your experience of “combining” these two important factors. How do you manage to achieve harmony, how do you manage time, etc.
Movies watched, books read, etc.
These topics do not relate to your professional activities, but will be of interest to everyone without exception. In addition, if you share your impressions of a particular series or book, your potential clients and colleagues will learn a little about your taste and become a little closer to you. Or maybe they’ll take some work to note.
School, university, career plans
You can briefly talk about what you dreamed of becoming since childhood. Who did you study in secondary or higher education, why did you choose this particular profession, and why in the end it didn’t work out for you. If you have already mentioned this in the history of your career path, you can touch on this topic in more detail in a separate post.
The very first client - how was it?
Tell us about how you accepted your very first commercial client - not a model, not a girlfriend, but a stranger who came through an ad. Were you worried, were there any funny situations, how long did you work, what was the result, was the client satisfied with it, did you use your services again, etc.
Your attitude towards clients
Of course, here you need to talk about how you love your visitors, how they help you improve in order to delight your clients even more with high-quality extensions. Be sure to thank them for their trust, tell them that they are the best!
What do you think is the ideal client and the ideal master?
Here you can write a short list of the qualities of the client and the master, and you can do this in a humorous way. For example, the ideal client always remains silent, does not ask unnecessary questions, pays in advance, etc. Just make sure that other people will really understand your humor and will not be offended.
Personal plans
You can share with your subscribers your plans for the next month, year, etc. How and where you are going to spend your vacation, how you plan to improve in your profession, what advanced training courses you want to take, etc. If you and most of your audience are young mothers, you can tell interesting life hacks on how to develop a child, what classes you conduct, what plans for learning and development you make for the future.
Where do you see yourself in 5, 10 years?
This text will be similar to the previous one, but these are more far-reaching goals. Perhaps in this way you will not only motivate your audience to new achievements, but also yourself. Since you have told a wide range of people about your global goals, now you simply have no right not to achieve them!
Your workplace
Film a short video or take a series of photos about your workplace. Below you can tell us in more detail about why you equipped your office exactly the way you did, how you organized your workspace and storage system, how convenient it is for you personally to work, etc. This video will be very useful for novice craftsmen who subscribe to you.
Stories from practice
If you already have any experience in working with clients, you’ve probably had funny, ridiculous, unpleasant or even scary situations that would be interesting for your subscribers to read about. People love different real life stories.
Information about you as a master
The next big section of topics for Instagram is information about you as a specialist. If you take the average website of a company selling goods or services, there is always detailed information on operating hours, contacts, about the company itself and the specialists working there, prices for services, etc.
The same detailed information should be included in your posts. Of course, it’s most convenient to put this in pinned Stories, so that customers don’t search for information throughout your entire account, but have immediate access to it. But some less important, but no less interesting details simply won’t fit in stories. In this case, it is better to tag them with hashtags that you can pin in stories. Subscribers using the hashtags they are interested in will be able to find all the necessary information in your account.
Let's determine together what important information you should tell about yourself as a master.
What materials do you use in your work and why?
Tell your subscribers what materials, tools and equipment you chose for your work, what you used for it and why you don’t use it now. It will be something like a review. Colleagues will be able to find something useful for their own work, and clients will know exactly how and how the procedure will be carried out. In addition, in photos and videos you can mark the account of the manufacturer of certain materials. Who knows, maybe they will offer you an advertising partnership or tag your post in their account, thereby advertising you.
Basic training and advanced training
And you can support the story with photographs of certificates and diplomas and completion of courses and master classes. Express your opinion about the training, which courses you liked and which ones are not worth spending money on. Clients will learn that you are truly a qualified specialist, and colleagues will gain information about training for themselves.
Caring for client comfort
Tell us about how you further delight your customers. A soft blanket, relaxing music, tea and coffee with cookies, a TV with the sound on, a gift eyelash brush, etc.
Operating mode
Provide detailed information about how and when you work, and how you can make an appointment. If there is an online registration, tell us how to use it, etc.
Video feedback from the client after the procedure
Arrange with one of your clients to shoot a video after the extension procedure. Let the visitor share his impression of the result obtained, tell how long he has been your client, why he comes to you, etc. And below you can give your own comment, express gratitude, etc.
Before-after video with client
As practice shows, the before-after format is very popular among beauty clients, as it provides an excellent opportunity to evaluate your skill and the resulting effect in contrast. In the text below, share details about the procedure, effect and materials used.
Details about the procedure
Educate clients about how long the extension procedure takes in certain cases, describe the procedure protocol in detail so that a potential client who has never used the services of a lash maker before knows what awaits him.
Loyalty system
If you have a bonus system for regular customers, tell us about it in detail in one of your posts. For example, it could be something like a savings card - every 8th extension is free, an increase in the discount on subsequent extensions after each application, a 20% discount if the client brings a friend, etc.
Your work process
Film a minute-long video in accelerated mode with footage during the procedure, below give detailed comments about what you are doing in the video at a specific moment.
Your benefits
Give your clients as many comprehensive answers as possible to the question of why they should choose you.
Interesting facts about eyelashes. Facts about eyelashes
Only mammals have eyelashes.
A human eyelash “lives” for about 90 days.
The main function of eyelashes is to protect the eyes from pollution and insects.
There are about 200 eyelashes on the upper eyelid, and about 100 on the lower eyelid.
Eyelashes are one of the important tools of female attractiveness. Long, curled eyelashes add depth and expressiveness to the look. Nowadays eyelash extensions are becoming fashionable among girls.
Long eyelashes are considered a sign of femininity in many cultures.
The embryo's eyelashes develop between the 7th and 8th week.
Human eyelashes renew themselves in approximately seven to eight weeks.
The color of a person's eyelashes may differ from the color of their hair.
Camels' eyelashes are surprisingly long and thick.
Hornbills have prominent feather eyelashes, an unusual feature in birds.
Women began painting their eyelashes back in Ancient Egypt.
Women of Ancient Rome tinted their eyelashes with a mixture of water and crushed lead.
Egyptian and Greek women burned special sticks on clay plates and sprinkled this charcoal on their eyelashes.
In the East, antimony was used for the same purposes.
In 1917, the American company Maybelline released the first mascara, consisting of black coal and Vaseline, and the new product immediately captured the hearts of women.
Physiognomy experts consider eyelashes to be an important detail that determines our character. In the old days, eyes with a sparse frame were considered a sign of an evil, treacherous person, whom they tried with all their might to avoid. In movies, negative characters or losers have such “bald” eyes.
At the moment, the owner of the longest naturally grown eyelashes in the world has been proven and recognized as the Indian Phuto Rav Mauli, who lives in the Mesok province, which is located near Delhi, the capital of India. The length of his eyelashes is 4.7 centimeters.
With his eyelashes, if pressed to his face, he reaches his lower lip. This fact was established by agents of the Guinness Book of Records, in the presence of witnesses and with the preparation of a protocol, all documents necessary for registering a record.
According to the record holder, he did not take care of his property during his entire life and even cut them in his youth (at the time of registration of the record in 2004, Mr. Mauli was 52 years old), even moreover, he considered the presence of such eyelashes a shameful fact. Many peers teased him and called him half a woman, and the descendant of artisans born in a provincial town did not easily put up with this. It is quite remarkable that the agents came to set a completely different record (the oldest cow in the world).
Finally, I would like to debunk a popular myth about eyelashes: if you cut your eyelashes, they will never grow back. In fact, eyelashes will certainly grow, but slowly - complete renewal of eyelashes occurs in about five months.

Statuses about lips and eyelashes
Your long eyelashes - I love, They are the wings of a black bird - into the blue, I catch each fleeting flap of them, I will keep your lowered and stern gaze.

Moonlight in your eyelashes.

Your features are even more visible.
I've been waiting for you for so many years and I'm exhausted by the wait, but the first ray appeared and the moonlight dissolved.
I've been waiting for you for so many years.
But I remember your features, your beautiful languor, your beloved look, so familiar, and the reflection of lunar beauty.
But I remember your features.
Moonlight in your eyelashes...

The sun is entangled in your eyelashes, in the palms of your hands and the world for two. The sky is in your eyes, the dawn is in your smile, There is no more love like ours.
I will paste on long eyelashes, Eyebrows will be drawn with a pencil, The gaze will sparkle with a green lens, Makeup will be applied to the cheeks, cheekbones, and nose. I’ll highlight the gel in my lips with lipstick, I’ll add a little touch here and there, I’ll throw some glitter on my shoulders—just what I need! I will be the best of brilliant ladies. I'll tighten my waist with a corset, I'll use a stiletto heel to lengthen my calves, Special tights with the effect I need will mark my hip line. I’ll extend my nails, glue on rhinestones, and a bra with cotton wool to make my breasts look higher. (Silicone interferes a little, it’s an infection. It’s okay, we’ll tolerate it somehow) I’ll dye my hair in different colors Or a wig will soften the oval of the face. What else can you come up with more effectively? To immediately - once! and on the spot. The seeker, of course, will find... Let Mother Nature rest... Well, where is the REAL man? The woman goes to look for him.
Once upon a time there lived an ant without eyelashes and without eyebrows.

Your pupil in the heavenly crust, Facing into the distance and prostrate, Protected by the reservations of Weak, sensing eyelashes.
He will be deified and live for a long time in his native country - A whirlpool of astonished eyes - Throw him after me.
He already looks willingly into the fleeting centuries - Light, rainbow, ethereal, Pleading for now.
Mandelstam Osip
I quietly lower my eyelashes, Everything is resting - my voice and hearing. Angels, angels, white birds, support my melting spirit.
You, angels, lift my Soul into the sky and do not let me fall. Fill your body with strength with a tiny tiny piece of white bread.
You will quench your spiritual thirst with a drop of pure transparent dew. Bring me news from your loved one at the right time - days and hours.
Angels, angels, white birds, You know what I don’t know. I quietly lower my eyelashes, I hear your wondrous voice in my sleep...
Love has your eyelashes, The color for the sky comes from your eyes. Someone in the world invented the color of your scarlet lips. A thrill of the body, a breath, Clarity of words and soul, The aroma of hair, by chance, Touched thoughts and dreams. The skin is velvet of the highest standard... Just touching it with a hair Excites the untouchable More and more every day. So touch often, think forever! So that I don’t forget your hands, Even if parting is inevitable, But become mine, even for a moment...
A slight flutter of gorgeous eyelashes, a languid look - and the man is enchanted! Every girl dreams of having such memorable bright eyes. Every day, many ladies type the phrase “how to make eyelashes bigger” in a search engine.
Sometimes women go to a salon to have their eyelashes extended, extended, or applied. These procedures are short-lived, expensive and provide no benefit.
Often, problems with eyelashes are complex - discoloration, weakness and fragility.
These problems arise when the body lacks vitamins, is under stress, or has various functional diseases. This happens if you use poor quality cosmetics or choose the wrong type of cosmetic product.
Nowadays, there are many simple and effective ways to increase eyelashes, and you don’t even have to leave your home to do this!
1. Our eyelashes require the same careful care as delicate facial skin. It is imperative to remove all makeup in the evening. At night, the whole body and eyelashes rest.
2. You need to choose the right makeup remover so that it suits you. The best option is if it is mousse or milk.
3. To remove waterproof mascara, you will need a two-phase product that contains oils and vitamins.
4. Under no circumstances should you wash off cosmetics with soap and water, this dries the skin very much and the eyelashes become fragile and break easily.
5. In the evening before going to bed, you can apply any oil to clean eyelashes with a brush or just a cotton swab. To do this, you should have, for example, jojoba, peach, and apricot oil on your shelf. Nowadays various oils can be bought at any supermarket or pharmacy.
6. Eyelashes receive additional nutrition from oils, which strengthens and enhances their growth. The most effective and best remedy for eyelash enlargement is regular castor oil.
This oil lengthens eyelashes. Almond oil stimulates the growth of eyelashes, and burdock oil strengthens them. The best results are obtained when using three oils.
7. The oil mask must be removed before going to bed; keep the oil on the eyelashes for no more than thirty minutes.
8. A gentle massage in the growth area has a very beneficial effect on eyelash growth. It can be done with a brush from an old mascara, which has been previously cleaned of paint. For massage, just moisten the brush in oil and apply it to the eyelashes with soft wave-like movements.
Movements should be carried out in one direction - from the eyelid to the tips. And most importantly, do not put pressure on the eyelid. Massage increases blood circulation, eyelashes will begin to actively grow.
9. You can make the following “cocktail” for eyelashes: mix burdock and castor oil with aloe juice and vitamin B. This mixture will help your eyelashes become lush and voluminous.
Also, if you mix vitamin B and A with any vegetable oil and lubricate your eyelashes with this mixture for a month, you will get the same result. It is important to remember that any oil or composition that you make must be applied very carefully, with light movements, so that nothing gets into your eyes.
10. It is good to comb your eyelashes in the morning and evening with a special brush. This procedure also increases blood circulation and has a beneficial effect on growth.
11. You need to nourish your eyelashes at least three times a year. The course should be up to thirty days.
12. In stores you can buy various mascaras that contain wheat germ proteins, castor oil, and keratin. This is additional eyelash care.
13. You can visually lengthen your eyelashes: apply one layer of mascara, then lightly powder, and then mascara again - and your eyelashes will be thick and long.
You won’t be able to increase your eyelashes in one day; it will take a lot of time. This is daily work, which will soon be crowned with success.
And the main thing is a balanced diet along with regular care, then your look will be remembered for a long time!
