MEET CHELBI, LASH LOUNGE STYLIST
Hi! My name is Chelbi and I’m a stylist at The Lash Lounge in Overland Park. First of all, I must start by saying how I truly love each and every second working at The Lash Lounge. I’m so incredibly thankful to come to work every day to a welcoming, fun and relaxed atmosphere. Whether it’s the stylists working their lash magic or our amazing guests, the vibes are stellar all the way around!
TRICKS OF THE LASH TRADE: LASH LOUNGE TRAINING
Let me back up a bit. When I learned The Lash Lounge was hiring, I was so excited for the opportunity to apply! I had the required cosmetology license*, but no previous experience working with lashes. Once I received the incredible news that I got the lash stylist job and was officially hired, I then received training from the corporate training tribe. Learning the innovative and unique techniques from the experts made me even more excited to be a part of this trailblazing company.
*Cosmetology, esthetics and eyelash extension specialty license requirements vary by state. Before you submit an application, please check with your local Lash Lounge to see which apply to you!
STEPPING IN TO SUCCEED: LASH LOUNGE STYLIST SUPPORT
It’s normal to feel a bit nervous when diving into a new career path, but as soon as I joined The Lash Lounge team, the owners and fellow staff members were so supportive and, till this day, that has meant a lot to me!
Environment is everything when it comes to where you work. I’m sure I’m not alone when I say not everywhere has a team-oriented atmosphere that feels welcoming. That’s why I love working at The Lash Lounge. Everyone is wonderful from the staff and owners to each and every guest that walks through the doors. From the moment I began my career, the salon became a second family and second home to me.
THE LASH LOUNGE DIFFERENCE
Another thing I really love is that The Lash Lounge is not a “one size fits all” lash salon. It’s a joy coming to work each day and having the ability to customize a look for my guests based on their eye shapes, lifestyle and desired look.
What’s my favorite look to lash? If I have to pick just one, it would be a volume application using silk lashes and a dramatic D curl! Yep, that’s the combo I love most! The before-and-afters are so striking!
WORK-LIFE BALANCE
When I’m not busy lashing, I love to be outdoors enjoying adventurous activities like kayaking. If I’m not out in nature, then you might find me checking out a new local brewery with my friends.
A LOOK AHEAD: A LIFE LASHING WITH THE LASH LOUNGE
When it comes down to it, I can 100% say I have fallen in love with what I do and The Lash Lounge as a whole. Wherever life may take me, it is my hope that I can stay and grow with this company that has supported me from day one and helped me develop and grow these mad lash skills I’m so proud of. I honestly can’t say enough about my experience working for this amazing company!
