💼 LLCs, Liability, and the Real Business Side of Lash Work - 79
Mon Feb 02 2026
At some point, every lash artist has to stop thinking like a freelancer and start thinking like a business owner. This episode breaks down what that really means—without fear-mongering or overcomplicating it.
We talk about why business certificates matter, how LLCs and DBAs actually work, how to protect yourself legally, and why separating personal and business finances changes everything long term. We also cover referrals, lead flow, client psychology, and why content and reviews should do most of the selling for you.
This is the stuff nobody explains clearly—and it’s usually learned the hard way.
What you’ll learn:
Why banks won’t open accounts without a business certificateHow LLCs protect you personally (and why that matters)Why you shouldn’t get stuck on the “perfect” business nameHow DBAs let you change names without restartingWhat business insurance actually covers in beauty servicesWhy separating personal and business credit mattersHow referrals and ads work togetherThe 3 main client types—and how to talk to eachWhy reviews and video testimonials sell better than youHow to think long-term without rushing decisionsIf you want to build something real—not just book appointments—this episode helps you shift how you think about the business side.
