About Me (The Owner):
Hey! My name is Katelyn and I’m 22 years old. I’ve lived in Gippsland for nearly 3 years and I used to study at Uni Full-Time. I’ve always had a love and passion for the Beauty field but unfortunately had no time on my hands to do so. Until about a year ago, when I took my first leap into the industry.
If you have known me long enough, I used to be the girl that’d have the lash extensions and brows like no other in high school and that’s a little while ago now. My passion for lashing has always stuck around since then until I finally decided to put my dreams and desires first, early 2019. That’s when KV Lash Artistry came along.
And ever since then it’s been a wild ride of growth and maturation, in my work.
I have big goals and dreams for my business and I hope I’ll be able to say one day that I was able to achieve them.
As for me personally, I love a good chat, I’m always here for you and I love to support small business. I’m a big believer in that.
Anyway, enough of me, I hope you all have a good day! Xx
Lots of love,
Katelyn
KV Lash Blog
We are talking everything and anything beauty related, sit down and have a nice Rosé or 3. Come along for the chat!
The 1st KV Lash Blog!
Hello Everyone!!!
How are all of you doing? This is so insane!
I’m so excited to be doing all of this for you lovely ladies (and men, if you’re interested 😉). With all this isolation, I have been working my butt off on this business and with every day new ideas, products, ventures are all coming to mind and I’m so glad to put these forward. If you know me, you know that I have always had a passion for lashing. I always want to improve and be that little bit better. If I’m not working on the administrative and marketing aspect of my business, you’ll catch me practicing and perfecting lashes and so much more.
There are SOOOO many things I have planned for you all. I have heaps of products on the way, rewards for my clients, new services are in the works, specials for when we return and I even have a giveaway planned since recently reaching 1k followers on Instagram! How insane. I appreciate the support.
You should honestly see my notes app, it’s flooded with ideas and scrambled with words because I’m constantly inspired to do better with my work. I do have to be patient though, if I could release everything in one go I would, but then that would be no fun for later, would it.
Anyway, enough of me rambling! Thank you all for your support, even if you’re just reading this! It makes my day. Hopefully you all have a good but safe time in isolation and I can’t wait to get back to lashing. I’ll take to you soon.
- Katelyn xx
KV Lash Blog #2: Sanitation
As the the big C-word is going around and the realisation of sanitation and cleanliness is bigger than ever, I have a few tips for Lash Techs on how to keep their equipment clean throughout the process and in between clients!
Two of the many ways to disinfect are the following:
- Barbicide
- Isopropyl Alcohol
In order the get any remaining stickies of your tweezers, glue plate etc. before the cleaning process such as glue, lashes, other icky stuff etc. it is recommended that you use Acetone to remove it (especially for the glue). Or if you have time, stick your equipment in boiling water for 10 minutes.
1. Barbicide is pretty simple, you can collect this from a Salon Supply store as it Salon-Grade disinfectant. It will come with it’s on instructions as per the bottle but you generally leave your tools in the disinfectant for 10 minutes. This allows enough time for all the germs and nasties to be disintegrated. Once completed, rinse with water and you’re ready to use.
2. Isopropyl Alcohol can be purchased through Bunnings or similar hardware stores, you must ensure this is 100% Isopropyl Alcohol concentrate and nothing less, if you do get anything less these will ruin and tarnish your equipment (don’t ruin those tweezers). Before getting to the alcohol, it will help to give your equipment a good scrub and clean with warm water and detergent. After that is done and dry, you must emerge your equipment in the alcohol for a minimum of 30 minutes. Once this is done, clean with a disposable tissue or cotton pad.
Whilst some of this may be a struggle to do throughout a bank to back day of clients, it is recommended you purchase more sets of tweezers (generally 3 is a go).
Please also understand that it is mandatory under Health & Safety regulations that you clean your equipment between each client. Also checking with your local council on recommended specifications regarding cleaning/sterilising is a big note!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this little blog on sanitation, it’s a good note to keep handy during these times! Have a good week -KV xx
