Top 5 Summer Tips for Lash Artists: Keep Those Lashes Flawless in the Sun! ☀️

by Kelsey Shapka 18 Jul 2024

Summer is here, and as lash artists we need to refresh our lash game to ensure our clients’ extensions stay stunning despite the heat. Whether you’re battling humidity, sweat, or those powerful heat waves, we've got you covered. ☀️

Here are our top five tips to make this summer a breeze for you and your clients!

1. Balance that Humidity

Humidity can be a lash artist’s best friend or worst enemy, but with the right approach, you’ll have long lasting lashes... and clients.

  • Keep an Eye on Humidity Levels 🧖🏼: Use a hygrometer to track the humidity in your studio. Aim for the sweet spot between 45% and 60%. 
  • Adapt Your Adhesive: Switch to an adhesive that loves the humidity just as much as you do! All Snob Adhesives work at their top performance in this humidity range of 40-60%.
  • Create a Cozy Environment: Invest in a dehumidifier or air conditioner to keep your workspace comfy for both you and your clients.
  • Weather Watch 🌦 : Keep an eye out for weather changes in your surrounding area, if its quite warm or rainy your lashing environment is more likely to fluctuate too.

2. Proper Summer Care For Your Clients:

Educate your clients on how to keep their lashes looking fabulous all summer long.

  • Heat and Steam Be Gone 🙅🏼‍♀️: Advise clients to be careful with activities like saunas and hot yoga that expose lashes to excessive heat. This may affect retention for your clients resulting in more fall out.
  • Sun and Water Savvy 🌊 : Encourage the use of sunglasses to protect lashes from UV rays and remind clients to treat their lashes gently when swimming in saltwater or chlorine. UV rays can have some powerful effects on the lashes and may cause discoloration or even crisped lashes that potentially loose their beautiful curl. We don't want that! Encourage gentle rubbing of the eye area if they are cooling off in serene bodies of water. 
  • Keep It Clean 🧼 : Recommend a gentle, oil-free cleanser to wash away sweat, sunscreen, and makeup residue, keeping lashes fresh and clean. If your clients do indulge in swimming in natural bodies of water, such as lakes or oceans.. it is VERY important that they immediately wash their lashes once they are out of the water. Microorganisms that live in the water have the potential to stick around and potentially cause irritation or even infections.

 3. Pick the Perfect Lashes for Summer Fun

Summer adventures call for lash extensions that can handle the heat and look good while doing so!

  • Light as Air Lashes 🌬 : Opt for lightweight lashes such as our Classic Snob Lashes or Snob Volume Lashes.
  • Waterproof Wonders 💧: For those who decide to embrace their natural beauty, suggest trying a lash lift + tint. Expand your service list by enrolling in our Lash Lift + Tinting Course.
  • Creative with Colour 🤎 : Why not step out of the norm and get creative with coloured lashes? Snob has a beautiful Super Natural Palette that includes magnificent natural browns and bronzed lashes for a natural,subtle yet creative change. 

4. Fun in the Sun Means More Frequent Fills

Summer activities can be tough on lash extensions, so keep your clients looking their best with reminding them of the importance of regular touch-ups.

  • Shorten the Interval ⏳ : Recommend clients come in every 2-3 weeks instead of the usual 3-4 weeks for fills. This will keep their lashes looking full and fabulous all summer long. 
  • Lash Health Check ✅ : During each appointment, assess the condition of both the extensions and natural lashes to ensure they remain healthy and happy, especially if your clients have froliked off on some summer adventures. 

5. Stay Trendy and Shine Bright

Summer is the season of trends and new products. Keep your skills sharp and your offerings fresh!

  • Follow the Fun: Keep up with us on IG @snob_inc_ to be first to know about lash industry news, blogs, and to learn about the latest trends, techniques, and products.
  • Learn and Grow: Participate in our upcoming workshops and online courses to stay updated on new lash technologies and methods. Visit www.snobinc.ca to learn more! 
  • Offer Summer Sales: Introduce trendy summer styles like colored lashes at a sale price or even beach-themed lash sets to attract clients looking for a seasonal refresh.

Summer is everyones favourite season of fun, sun, and fabulous lashes! By following these awesome Summer Tips, your clients' lash extensions will remain stunning all season long. Embrace these tips to enhance your summer lash artistry, keep your clients smiling, and let your creativity shine.

Happy summer, lash artists! 🌞👁️✨
