Organising the Lash Stylist’s Workstation

A well-organised workstation is the foundation of efficient and pleasant work. Order doesn’t just improve the look of your studio — it directly affects your comfort, focus and application time. When you know exactly where everything is, you work smoothly without unnecessary pauses or searching for tools.

Start by properly arranging your beauty trolley or table:

• Bottom shelf — keep your stock of disposable and hygiene products here: gloves, pads, wands, masks, disinfectants, etc.

• Middle shelf — perfect for the lash palettes you’re planning to use that day. Arrange them by length, curl and type. Label them to make your work even quicker.

• Top shelf or tabletop — this is where all must-have tools for the treatment should be. Place them on the side of your dominant hand so you can reach them instinctively without interrupting your workflow.

Lash Adhesives That Speed Up Your Work

Choosing the right adhesive has a huge impact on the speed of your application. The most convenient for everyday use are glues with a wide working range, for example 30–80% humidity. This way, the glue adapts to the environment — not the other way around — saving you time and effort.

If you want to work even faster, reach for No-shake glue, which is ready to use immediately after opening. Unlike standard adhesives that require at least 15 seconds of shaking before each use, No-shake does not separate — meaning you don’t need to mix it at all.

Fewer technical breaks = faster lash sets and a smoother workflow.

Client Conversation vs. Application Speed

Talking can make the visit pleasant, but it can also significantly extend the procedure. Maintain a healthy balance:

• chat freely during the preparation stage,

• create a calming, quiet atmosphere during the application.

You stay focused, and your client gets a moment to relax.

Work Routine — The Key to Speed

A consistent and well-thought-out sequence of steps helps eliminate chaos and unnecessary pauses. Develop your own workflow — you can even write it down as a quick cheat sheet. Over time it will become second nature, and your speed will increase naturally.

Why You Should Keep a Client Card and a Pre-Treatment Questionnaire

A client card and pre-treatment form are more than just paperwork — they save you time and help you work more professionally. Notes from previous visits (curls, lengths, preferences) allow you to prepare everything in advance.

This means:

• shorter consultation time,

• fewer repeated questions,

• faster and more accurate product selection,

• smoother, more organised workflow.
