I hope this guide rattles the cage a little—to get you thinking like a true professional.

Because this industry is flooded with fluff, shortcuts, and smoke screens. You deserve better than watered-down training and empty promises. And if you downloaded this, chances are—you’re not here to play small or waste time chasing trends.

The streets are littered with the dreams of people who gave up when the world talked louder than their purpose.
My best friend told me not to pursue lashes—repeating every negative stereotype. But my cousin, with thirty more years of wisdom, told me to ignore the noise and go for it.

I watched my father rise from working under someone else to building his own business. He mastered his craft, earned respect, and became the one everyone turned to. That’s where I get it from.

I didn’t enter this industry to be average—and I didn’t plan on creating Lash Intensive. I created The Lash Aficionado® to be a one-woman show, delivering the best lash experience possible. It was all I had left to rebuild after my life fell apart.

This wasn’t a hobby—it was a lifeline. And the best part? I got to heal people by helping them feel beautiful.

You’re not here for average either. 

You’re here to build something real. So read this. Use it.
And don’t let anyone sell you less than what your future is worth.
