It seems almost every day I go on IG I hear people talking about how important it is to have multiple streams of income as well as passive income. 

At first glance, this idea sounds great (and it is), but what bothers us is most people selling this idea are trying to get you to buy their classes, webinars, or ebooks...and I they tend to make it sound like it's easy to do. 

In today's episode, we share the whole picture of what it really means to have multiple streams of income.

347. Why You Need to be Part of The American Lash Association

Over the last year, there has been a massive shift in our industry. More and more people are trying UV light-curing adhesives, and it's ruffling some lash artist's feathers. 

As a result, we have seen lash artists go online and share their concerns about this new way of lashing. A week doesn't go by where someone doesn't ask us what we think about the light-curing adhesives. 

After seeing so much concern and controversy on this subject, we decided to do a deep dive and talk to a lot of experts who could help guide us on how safe or unsafe this procedure is. 

We talked to a chemist, a doctor, an engineer, a physicist who specializes in this field, a manufacturer, and a distributor with the hopes we'll be able to provide you with a comprehensive look into this new trend. 

In today's episode, we set the table on this subject, and over the next 6-7 weeks, we'll unpack everything you need to know so you can make an informed decision on whether you want to give this new lashing trend a try.

348. Time to Talk about UV Light Curing Adhesives

To kick off our series on UV lights and UV light-curing adhesives, we are excited to have physicist Dr. Todd Harris join us on the show. Todd worked with the lash robotics company LUUM and helped them develop their UV light curing process that the robot uses to apply lashes. 

We are very honored and excited to have Todd on our show as he understands the science of how these UV lights work and what can make them dangerous to use. In this episode, he gives a good foundation on which our other episodes will build on.

In future episodes, we'll have a doctor, chemist, engineer, manufacture, as well as a distributor share what they know about this exciting new tool that is causing quite a stir in our industry.

349. UV LIGHT SERIES: Physicist Todd Harris Breaks Down If It's Safe To Use UV Curing Lights

In our last episode, physicist Todd Harris explained what we need to look for in a UV light system. We learned we need to look at three things: the wavelength, irradiance, and exposure time to the light. 

In today's episode, Todd provides some more clarity on what type of lights are safe and answers some new questions, like whether we need to wear eye protection with UV lights. He also shares if the European CE standard is a safe standard for us in the States. 

If you haven't listened to the episode before, please go back and listen to that one before jumping into this episode.

350. UV LIGHT SERIES: Physicist Todd Harris Returns with More UV Insights

If you are joining us on our UV Light Series, please go back to the previous two episodes and listen to those before moving forward with this episode. You'll want to get those episodes under your belt before moving into this one. :)

In today's episode, we have Dr. Warren Stout joining us in the studio.  We have been referring to him almost since your first episode aired over six years ago.  He was our unofficial medical director when we had a salon and has spoken at every LASHCON since 2019. He has been a wealth of information and support for the lash industry. 

Today Dr. Stout shares his thoughts on whether or not we should be concerned about using UV lights in the lash room. I think some people will be surprised by his thoughts on this topic. 

Dr. Stout did some research for us and shares his findings on how many cases of injuries have been reported with UV lights. As a bonus we also talk what you can do if you get lash adhesive in a client's eye.

351. UV LIGHT SERIES: Dr. Warren Stout Shares His Insights Whether Lash UV Lights Are Safe or Not

We continue our UV light series today by bringing back our favorite chemist Michael Becker to the studio.  

In the last three episodes, we have had a physicist and a doctor give their insights on the safety of this UV light technology but today we pivot and bring in a chemist who understands how the UV light adhesives work. Michale has been researching this new trend and helps to dispel any fears a lot of lash artists might have using the adhesive that works with the UV light.

352. UV LIGHT SERIES: Chemist Michael Becker on the Safety of Lash UV Lights

The CEO of PLA, Mcihelle Nguyen, joins us in the LashCast booth to talk about a partnership we have built and will continue to work on this year. 

Last year, we spoke at a two-day Lash Business Masterclass that PLA hosted at their office in Reno. It was a huge success, and the feedback was over the top. We have decided to do two classes this year. 

We also recorded a lot of our talks, and PLA is offering a more budget-friendly online version in case you can't make it to Reno this year.

In this session, Michelle breaks down all the things we'll be covering in the masterclass. If you are ready to supercharge your business in 2024, this episode is for you.

353. Michelle Nguyen Breaks Down PLA's Lash Business Masterclass

We are excited to add this episode to our UV light series. If you have been on IG the last few years, you've probably seen a video showing a robot applying eyelash extensions to a client. The response from lash artists has varied. Some are excited, but most seem very skeptical.  

In today's episode, Nate Harding, the CEO of LUUM, comes on our show to update us on how their lash robot is progressing. He explains how it's safer than a lash artist holding a pair of tweezers, and we discuss how this innovation might affect our industry.  

Aside from dispelling some misunderstandings about the LUUM robot, we wanted to have Nate on to discuss the light-curing adhesive that the lash robot uses to apply lashes. His team has done a lot of work on the safety of UV lights, and he shares what he has learned.

If you want even more details about LUUM, please check out episodes 141 and 142, where we did a two-part series on LUUM's lash robot.

355. Lessons Learned from LASHCON 2023 and Improvements for LASHCON 2024

We took a couple of weeks off from the UV talk, but we are excited to be back with Soo-Jin Yang of Illuminos Lashes, the creator of the first UV light system in our industry. 

Soo-Jim came up with the idea of using UV light technology 12 years ago, and she had to move mountains to make it a reality in 2019. Her story is very inspiring and just shows you how tough-minded you need to be when everyone around you is telling you "no". 

Aside from hearing about how she created the first UV light system, she also shares her concerns for our industry and how some systems out there are overpromising how safe their systems are. 

She has a discount code for you if you want to buy one of her new systems.  You can save $50 by using the code LASHCAST50.
