A Unique Story
A Franchisor for Franchisees, we are driven by our origin story. Our founder, Jennifer Blair, was an early adopter of lash extensions after falling in love with their ability to boost confidence by highlighting a woman’s natural beauty and to eliminate the need for mascara. The challenge was that the service was not broadly accessible as it was limited to exclusive salons at a high price. Seeing the opportunity, Jennifer secured her license and began lashing out of a small, rented space in the back of a day spa. The day she opened, after placing a promotional ad, she was amazed and moved to learn over 200 customers had already booked appointments.
An inspirational leader and creative visionary, Jennifer designed a unique, more transparent open studio environment that fosters community and collaboration, created a differentiated lash artist training program, attracted an exceptional team, and built a unique and special culture. The concept quickly took off and her husband Mike, a Carnegie Mellon-educated management consultant, joined her in the business.
What We Look for in Franchisees
Not just anyone can join our system. While no beauty experience is required, we look for people who are passionate about the impact our services can have on our clients’ lives.
Successful franchisees are natural leaders who are good at connecting with others—from clients, to their lash artists, to the other businesses in their retail center and their community—and are committed to operational excellence and delivering an outstanding experience.
