Hello, I'm Mai from Mai Lashes Brisbane, a salon in Australia specialising in eyelash, eyebrow, and face waxing.
I've been a Lash Artist for seven years and am gearing up for a major challenge in January 2024.
I'm set to compete in a significant live lash competition in the UK.
This will be my first live competition since I participated in events in Brisbane in 2018 and 2019.
I've taken part in numerous online competitions, but live events are a whole different experience, requiring a different level of focus and preparation.
I've also had the honour of winning in a New York competition, which led to being featured in a lash magazine. That was an incredibly exhilarating experience for me!
The upcoming live competition in the UK poses its own set of challenges.
Since I can't bring my own model, I'm thinking of reaching out to modelling agencies to find one.
It's daunting to compete with a model I've never met, not knowing their eye shape, lash growth, or if they can comfortably sleep during the process😳
The unfamiliar environment, including room temperature and humidity, and uncertainty about how well my glue will work, add to the challenge！
It might seem like I enjoy competing against others, but what I really love is testing my skills against the world's standards.
I dislike staying in my comfort zone without challenging myself.
If I don't win, it's a reminder that I still have room to grow. If I do win, it boosts my confidence and motivation🫶
Despite the hardships and moments of doubt, I love taking on these competitions. Approaching 40, this is perhaps the biggest challenge I've faced as a lash artist.
🤞Please cheer me on!
