Elevate beyond beauty
Hi, I’m Farideh Fahoul, a passionate lash artist, educator, and former salon owner.
Over the years in the beauty industry, I’ve discovered that true success goes beyond talent. It’s about creating an exceptional client experience, communicating clearly, setting healthy boundaries, understanding them, and implementing smart systems that make your business smoother, more enjoyable, and more profitable. Elevate Beyond Beauty is my dedicated educational space for beauty professionals
I’m opening interest for my next 2-day in-person lash courses in August and September.
Each class is limited to only 5 students because I want every student to receive hands-on guidance, personal feedback, and the support they need while learning.
If you’ve been thinking about taking a lash course and want to learn in a small, supportive class setting,
comment COURSE and I’ll send you the interest list.

My son and I took a trip to the Pacific Coast, and every moment felt so precious.
He’s a teenager now, and I don’t get the same kind of time with him that I used to. It made me think back to the days when trips like this were the only time he truly had my undivided attention.
When I first started building my business, I worked long hours because I wanted to provide for him and create a better future. Even when I was home, I was still answering messages, thinking about work, or carrying the weight of my business in my mind.
Over the years, I’ve learned to set boundaries and build systems to free time for my family and personal life. I’ve also had to shift my mindset and let go of old beliefs, fears, and the pressure to always be doing more.
So if you’re in the building stage of your career right now, be patient with yourself.
As long as you’re moving toward your goals with intention, the long days won’t last forever. Keep building, but don’t forget to live along the way.

When a fan is not fanning, you should let it go, but this scenario is an easy fix.
Save this for your next practice session; it takes some time to be able to get it right

As a part of consultation, you must talk about lash cycle with your clients.
Never assume that clients already know about eyelash cycle.
I didn’t know either until i started doing lashes 🤷🏽♀️
If you want to have a successful consultation, I created a playbook that walks you through step by step to build trust and a loyal clientele.
Comment PLAY, and I will send you the link
Happy lashing!
Why go through unlearning a habit when you can learn the right way from the beginning?
No lash course taught me how to protect my body. It was a mix of guesswork and what felt comfortable, but as the appointment progressed, I started hunching or moving too far from or too close to the client because I was so focused on my craft that I forgot about my sitting position.
It took me a very long time and a lot of effort to unlearn and relearn my sitting position.

I’m wearing gel nail polish and gel overlay in this video.
Based on my experience, this doesn’t damage your gel nails.
I also use lash remover to spot-clean glue spills on various surfaces, but always make sure that the remover doesn’t damage the surface materials.
Save this for future and share to someone who will benefit from this video.
Happy lashing! 💕

Lash extensions didn’t just “appear” on Instagram one day; they’ve been evolving for over a century.
From ancient beauty rituals, to painful early experiments, to Hollywood’s dramatic strip lashes, and finally to the semi‑permanent classic, hybrid, and volume sets we know today. Lashes have a history that most clients (and many artists) never hear about.
Understanding where our craft comes from helps us respect it more and take education, safety, and technique seriously.
If you want to learn eyelash extension the right way, I’m opening beginner‑friendly lash extension class and workshop this August & September.
This is perfect for you if:
🔸You’re curious about lash extensions but don’t know where to start
🔸You took a course, but still feel lost or under‑trained
🔸You want solid fundamentals, safe technique, and real support.
Comment "WAIT" below to join the waiting list.
Although this isn't something you’d do often, it is a good tip to know. Save this for the future.
Happy lashing!
