We Took the Podcast to a Lash Conference! 🎤 | OPAL 2026

Send us a message ✨ Beyond the Tweezers goes LIVE at Opal 2026! 🎤💗 This week, I’m taking you behind the scenes of one of the UKs biggest lash conferences, chatting with lash artists, educators, business owners and industry professionals about the things we don’t always talk about. And trust me, some of these conversations really got me thinking! From whether the lash industry has stopped evolving, to the unrealistic expectations placed on new artists, undercharging, competition and the importance of stepping outside your comfort zone. We talk about why building a successful beauty business today looks very different to how it did 20 years ago, whether the industry needs more innovation, and why so many talented artists are still afraid to charge what they’re worth.

Of course, it wouldn’t be Beyond the Tweezers without a little fun! We’re spinning the wheel, answering spicy industry questions, sharing our biggest industry icks and getting some very honest opinions along the way. But underneath all the laughs, there’s an important message. If we want to see the industry grow, we have to be willing to grow with it. Because, as Kirstie said during one of our conversations, they don’t call it growing pains for no reason. Whether you’re just starting your beauty business or you’ve been in the industry for years, I think there’s something in this episode that will make you stop and think. Grab a cuppa, get comfy and come along to Opal 2026 with me! 💗 This Episode is sponsored by Lash Oasis Use Code: BEYOND15 for 15% off the Korean Hybrid Lash Lift Course: https://lashoasis.co.uk Connect with the gorgeous guests I had on: Olivia: https://www.instagram.com/byolivia_ocaesthetics?cplk=MXEyNWRoamhhM2Rzdw== Hannah: https://www.instagram.com/hd_lashes_x?xtok=MW16am85cWk0dGQwbA== Latisha: https://www.instagram.com/groomandglow2025?dlrf=eDJwZ29yd3ZkZ2t0 Samira: https://www.instagram.com/lashgirl.london?dlrf=d2tidXlhb2VxeWRv Jessica: https://www.instagram.com/walloflashes?dlrf=MWFlOWx2cXN3MTNrMw== Kirstie: https://www.instagram.com/bloomlashesandbeauty?dlrf=MXhreXRwbm04eG1mOA== Laura: https://www.instagram.com/laurakathrynbell?dlrf=b2U2YTBxcmp6cnJw Megan: https://www.instagram.com/dreamlashcokent?mdxt=MXZjYmJ3OXM4bmsxbQ== Elisha: https://www.instagram.com/opallashconference?xtok=azlhNm9wMmlpNTRq Thank you for pressing play and joining me!
