Beginning your career as a lash tech can be intimidating, but knowing where to start is the first step. A question we see a lot is if you should start out at a salon or if you should go on your own with booth rental. There are benefits to both booth rental and working at a commission based salon! Working at a Commission based salon is always great for beginner lash techs! You would start off with a mentor, earn a steady paycheck while steadily gaining clientele. As a beginner, it can be hard to gain clientele, keep track of your inventory as well as scheduling, so a salon is a great place to start! Booth rental can be great! You are the owner of your own business, and you receive 100% of your income, but you are in charge of your own inventory, marketing, customer service and everything in between! With booth rental, you pay your own monthly lease, supply your own products, and manage your own schedule, while also gaining your own clientele. If you are a beginner and starting off with booth rental, you also have to make sure you have money set aside for starting out and be prepared to manage yourself! Whether you start off commission based or rent a booth, you can have a successful lash career! 💗
