I’m Back! + Why I’m Changing How I Talk About Lashes 🎀
Hey Family!
I’ve finally settled into the new shop back on Stevens Creek in Santa Clara! I know I’ve been a bit quiet lately, but relocation is a full-time job. Now that the move is done—I am officially back on it.
While I was away, I spent a lot of time deep-diving into the Manhua style. It’s been on the market for a while, but studying the geometry of it has actually caused me to change how I describe these sets to my clients.
Personally, I’m moving away from terms like "spiky" or "anime." To the client's ear, those sound sharp or costume-like. Instead, I’ve started using terminology like Soft, Natural, Realistic, Airy, and Fluffy. It completely changes the client's expectation and elevates the service!
For those of you wondering about the technical difference, here is my breakdown:
• Manga (Anime) Lashes: Bold and structured. These use thick, intentional spikes for that dramatic, doll-like contrast.
• Manhua Lashes: Whimsical and airy. The peaks are thinner with more varied lengths, giving it that delicate "fairy" look that feels effortless.
I just dropped a full masterclass on how to map and execute this look in the Classroom! Your homework for this curriculum is the #RealisticLashChallenge. I want to see you master the "gap" and create that airy texture.

I can't wait to see your sets. Post your homework in the "Showcase" category so we can all cheer you on!
Let's get back to work! 🥂
Why this works for your Skool community:
• The Relatability: Mentioning the move to Stevens Creek makes you human and explains the gap in posting.
• The Professional Pivot: Explaining why you are changing your terminology (Soft vs. Spiky) proves you are an educator who thinks about the client's psychology.
• Clear Call to Action: You link the lesson and the homework (The Challenge) together so they have a clear path of what to do next.
The Mission: Master the Texture
"This isn't just a challenge; it’s your first step toward mastering the art of high-end realism. Your goal is to move away from heavy 'striplash' looks and perfect the Manhua technique by creating a seamless, airy finish. By focusing on the specific length gaps between your spikes and base layers, you’ll learn to build sets that aren't just 'spiky,' but truly soft, fluffy, and sophisticated. Let’s see you bridge the gap between technical mapping and effortless beauty!"
