Common Mistakes
✗ Hiring without portfolio review
✓ Fix: Always request 20+ before/after photos. Lash work is highly visual — portfolio is everything.
✗ Not testing Korean lash technique separately
✓ Fix: Korean lash lift requires specific training. Ask candidates to demonstrate the technique on a model.
✗ Underestimating eye safety knowledge
✓ Fix: Test for adhesive allergies, eye anatomy understanding, and emergency response. One injury can close your salon.
✗ Ignoring retention rates
✓ Fix: Ask candidates: "What's your average client retention at 3 weeks?" Top artists hit 70%+ retention.
