    – The difference between lash techs and lash designers
    – Natali’s biggest mindset blocks (and how she overcame them)

    – What real growth looks and feels like behind the chair

  • Charge More, But First Become More
    May 30 2025

    In this episode of The Designer’s Room, I talk about what it truly means to be set apart—and how becoming more within leads to charging more with confidence.

    The word that came to me while preparing for this episode was “holy”—not in a religious box, but in the sense of being distinct, elevated, and aligned. From that reflection, I unpacked one of the most misunderstood ideas in the beauty industry: charging premium prices without transformation.

    You can’t do the same thing and expect different pay. You can’t charge $300 with $100 habits. You have to evolve—and that evolution starts from within.

    Whether you’re a lash artist, a service provider, or a creative in transition, this episode is your reminder to lead with purpose, elevate with integrity, and build something sacred and successful.



    💡 Topics Covered:
    – What “set apart” really means in business and spirit
    – Why I could charge more—and what I had to change first
    – The delusion of raising prices without raising standards
    – Faith, pricing, and aligned elevation for lash artists

  • Lash Technician vs Lash Designer: What's the Difference (And Why It Matters) | TDR Ep. 3
    May 23 2025

    Are you just applying lashes — or are you designing them?

    In this episode of The Designer’s Room, we’re breaking down the real difference between a lash technician and a lash designer — and why it matters more than ever in today’s beauty industry.

    If you’ve ever felt stuck in your lash journey…
    If your work is technically clean but still isn’t converting…
    If you’re constantly being told to “just do what the client wants”…
    This conversation is for you.

    Because lash design isn’t about freestyling.
    It’s about intentional artistry, facial analysis, and building a body of work that reflects YOU.



    In this episode, I cover:

    – The mindset difference between techs and designers
    – Why technique alone isn’t enough
    – How to elevate your sets beyond trends
    – What most trainings don’t teach you (but should)
    – How I guide lash artists into their next level



    If you’re ready to stop applying lashes and start designing with purpose, this is your starting point.

  • When Clients Ask for the Wrong Lash Style… | The Designers Room Ep. 2
    May 16 2025

    What do you do when a client asks for a lash style that won’t flatter them?

    In this episode of The Designer’s Room, we’re diving into one of the most important (but overlooked) skills every lash artist needs: learning how to translate your client’s request into a design that actually works for them.

    Because most clients don’t speak in lash terms — they speak in feelings.
    “Cat eye” might mean “I want to feel lifted.”
    “Natural” might mean “I don’t want to look overdone.”

    And when you know how to decode that language,
    → You build trust.
    → You create better results.
    → You position yourself as a true lash designer, not just a service provider.

    In this episode, we’ll cover:
    – What to say when a client asks for the wrong style
    – How to guide the consultation with confidence
    – Why honoring the outcome matters more than the words
    – How I gave my client what she wanted — without sacrificing the design

    ✨ This episode is for the artist who wants to be trusted for their eye — not just their technique.
