51. Malaena Kelson Talks About Dealing With Pain From Lashing

Today we sit down with Malaena Kelson of Lash Happy Club and The Lash Wrap and talk about one of the biggest issues in our industry: body aches we get from lashing. If you have been lashing for a while, then you know at some point your body will start to feel it. Lashing looks like a very relaxing chill kind of job, but it can be very hard on our bodies if we don't take care of them. Another problem we talk about is how so many lash artists don't even talk about the pain they get from lashing. They just suffer in silence and dream of a day they no longer do lashes. Malaena shares that you don't need to live this way anymore, and her new company Lash Happy Club is here to help lash artists take care of themselves so they can continue to do lashes without the quality of life taking a major dip. We recorded this episode last June at the IBS show in Vegas so we didn't have a lot of time to really talk about this issue...so we hope to have her back again later this year and dig a little deeper into this important issue that every lash artist deals with.
