Eyelash extensions!

A couple weeks ago we had a previous instructor from the school I'm attending come in and demonstrate eyelash extensions. She even allowed those of us who were interested in practicing putting them on the model she brought in and then we practiced on each other.

I'm excited about them! So excited that I have purchased the supplies that I need to be able to apply full sets and fills to those clients that are interested in having them! 

They take a bit of time to apply of course, but it is totally worth it in my opinion. When those who have them wake up in the morning there is no need to apply mascara on your top eyelashes! You can wake up and go if that's all that you apply in the morning or when you go out! 

For the first 5 models there will be a $20 charge. The next set of 5 models will have a $40 charge. The $20 is more for supplies as they will be helping me with getting acquainted with the process and supplies. The $40 charge will be to help offset supplies and also help compensate a little bit for the time it takes. 

This cost is for FULL SETS of eyelash extensions. Which if you were to go to a spa in the area would cost $150+! 

My supplies should be here by the middle of September and I should be able to get started by the 25th depending on my model's schedules. I'm so excited that I can hardly contain myself! 

Here is a before/after photo of eyelash extensions. I did NOT apply those eyelash extensions nor did I take the photo. I do not know the model in the photo as it came from a search I did on Google.com. It is only for visual purposes!

First Impressions

Had school today as I have for the last almost 6 months. One thing different with today was the "First Impressions" class that we had this morning.

It was only a couple hours long but I learned quite a bit in that time. I have been thinking about everything that we went over all day long.

Talk about lasting impression... I haven't been able to get it out of my mind. Not that I want to. Its definitely something that I need to take the time to think about more.

One thing that is for certain... You only get ONE first impression. There is no second chance, you don't get a "re-do". You can't take back what has been said or done.

You may not think much about how you dress when running a quick errand or your body language while running that errand. However, you should put a little more thought into both as EVERYONE that you come in contact with, no matter where you are, could be a potential career contact.

NETWORKING is important and a big part of achieving any goals you may have set for yourself.

Eek! What happen?!

I've been away from the blogging world for far too long, that's for sure. I apologize for that, however, it was not in my control.

With moving out of state with the kids and without my husband, moving in with family, starting school and everything else that was going on, it was quite hard to find the time, especially without having my own computer set up.

But really, what happen to the look of blogspot?! It is going to take me some time to get used to, that's for sure. Not sure I like it, but then again normally when there is change, I'm a little apprehensive at first and then over time I get used to it. I guess I'm not too different than others?! haha

I will try to do a short quick update on the bigger things that have taken place over the last couple months in the next week or so.

Most important right now.... 

Kids are well and we all are excited for Daddy to be here in a mere 5 days!!! No more going back to Oregon alone for him, which means no more tears for us!!!

School is going well. I'm about halfway through!

The new house is in a nice neighborhood and the kids have their own rooms.

I'm around some of my family and Travis and I have had a couple of our friends move to the area. There is quite a bit more to do here as well, which makes it nice!

WWYD?! More people than seat belts?!

To the best of your knowledge what do you think you would do?!

Lets say you see an adult pull up to a store in a 5 seat car. You see not 1, 2 or 3 children get out of the car but SIX (6). Two of them are MAYBE a year old and the other 4 are approximately 4 years old to 8 years old.

Would you
a) have to pick your mouth up off the ground from shock?
b) shake your head in disgust?
c) tell the adult just what you think?
d) call the authorities and report the adult?
e) ALL of the above?


Would it matter what store you were at? How old the adult was? How old the children were?

Does it make it less worse in your opinion that the two youngest DID have carseats? Keep in mind that in this situation even though there were 2 carseats you didn't physically see the 2 children, or any children for that matter IN the seats with your own eyes.
