So, you’ve found yourself falling for a lash artist. Congrats! Welcome to a world where mascara wands are like magic wands, and lash extensions take center stage. But before you dive headfirst into your happily-ever-after with your lash queen (or king), there are a few things you should know. Dating a lash artist isn’t your typical love story—it’s one with a lot more glue, tweezers, and lash mapping. Let’s dive in!
Be Prepared to Become a Lash Model… a Lot
Picture this: It’s Friday night, and instead of hitting the latest movie, you find yourself horizontal on a lash bed, eyes closed, with tweezers hovering dangerously close to your face. That’s right—dating a lash artist means you’ll probably become their go-to lash model. If you think your eyes are your best feature, brace yourself: they’ll be a canvas more often than you’d expect.
Pro tip: Embrace it! You might end up with the freshest set of lashes in the friend group. And hey, maybe you’ll start a new trend for guys rocking mega volume fans.
Learn Her Lingo, and You’ll Score Major Points
Your lash artist partner probably speaks a different language—one filled with terms like “C curl,” “lash isolation,” and “PBT fibers.” If you want to get on her good side, learn a bit of the lash lingo. Trust me, a casual “Babe, that volume fan looks flawless” will get you more brownie points than you’d think. Plus, there’s something super endearing about a partner who knows the difference between a classic set and a hybrid set.
Remember: Lashes aren’t just extensions. They’re a whole lifestyle, darling!
Understand That Lash Fumes Are Part of the Deal
Ever walked into her workspace and felt like you got hit with a whiff of industrial glue? Welcome to lash life, where glue fumes and the smell of freshly opened lash trays are part of the romance package. If your partner asks you to crack a window, do it without complaint. And if you start sneezing? Blame the lash primer.
It’s not all bad—at least your sense of smell will always be ready for anything!
Buy Her Lash Products Like They’re Roses (but don’t exclude them tho)
You know how some people love receiving chocolates or flowers? For a lash artist, gifting lash products is the ultimate sign of affection. Those tweezers she’s been eyeing? Snatch them up for her. That lash glue she swears by? Order a few bottles for backup. Trust me, there’s nothing sexier to her than a well-stocked lash cart.
Bonus points if you throw in a bottle of your best-selling lash shampoo (you know, the one she raves about)—it’s the equivalent of a love letter in lash artist language.
Appreciate Her Hustle
Lash artistry is no joke. It requires a steady hand, insane patience, and more focus than your average rocket scientist. So when she’s stressed out about lash retention or perfecting a mega volume set, listen, nod, and remind her how talented she is. Remember, she’s probably spent hours hunched over a lash bed perfecting her craft. Support her ambition, and she’ll adore you for it.
Also, never underestimate the power of a simple “Babe, you make the most gorgeous lash sets.” That’s love in its purest form.
Lash Talk Is Pillow Talk
In your relationship, there will be conversations you never imagined having: like how different curls affect the client's lash lift, or why humidity levels matter more than you realized. Yes, lash talk will sneak into pillow talk, and that’s just how it goes. Lean into it, and don’t be surprised if you start having opinions on lash mapping yourself.
Plot twist: You’ll become a secret lash connoisseur, impressing her with your newfound knowledge.
Respect Her Schedule—It’s a Lash Marathon
Lash artists work hard, and their schedules can be more packed than a Friday night at Disneyland. If she has back-to-back clients, understand that quality time might come with a side of late-night lash cleans or business planning. It’s not personal; it’s the life of a lash pro. Offering to help in small ways—like picking up dinner or being patient when her last client runs over—can go a long way.
Know That She Sees Everything
When your partner is a lash artist, they’re trained to notice details. She’s probably clocked that stray eyebrow hair of yours or the way your eyelashes grow. Embrace the fact that she has the eyes of a hawk, and take comfort in knowing she’ll always help you look your best.
And yes, if she offers to shape your brows, consider it an act of love.
Share Her Work on Social Media
Be her biggest cheerleader! Sharing her stunning lash sets or dropping a comment on her posts with lots of emojis can mean the world to her. It’s a small gesture that shows you’re proud of her work and support her dreams. Plus, it might lead to her followers jokingly dubbing you the ultimate #LashBae.
Love Her Passion—Lash Life and All
Above all, remember that her passion for lash artistry is a huge part of who she is. Celebrate her wins, listen to her struggles, and embrace the lash life as your own. Sure, your relationship might come with lash glue spills, a ton of talk about retention rates, and the occasional debate about which lash fan is fluffiest—but it’s all part of the fun. And let’s face it, there’s something magical about dating someone so dedicated to making the world a little more beautiful, one lash at a time.
And hey, dating a lash artist might make you realize just how much of a difference those perfectly placed fans make. You’ll develop a newfound respect for beauty and precision and maybe—just maybe—catch yourself recommending her services to everyone you know. Her passion is contagious, and there’s something so inspiring about watching her bring someone’s lash dreams to life.
In a nutshell: Dating a lash artist is a wild ride, full of glam, glue, and giggles. Embrace it, and you’ll have a partner who knows how to make every day a little more beautiful. Plus, you get front-row seats to the magic of a well-crafted lash set. If you’re really lucky, you might even have an honorary spot on her lash cart—right next to her favorite tweezers and extra bonder (joking, you’re still the priority).
So, buckle up, be her biggest cheerleader, and get ready to be her partner-in-lash (literally and figuratively). From endless lash-related conversations to playing lash model extraordinaire, your relationship is bound to be one for the books. Who knew dating a lash artist would be this glamorous and, honestly, so much fun? Go on, be the lash-loving partner she deserves!
