Built for solo lash techs, beauty suite pros, and anyone serious about making one chair profitable—without the gatekeeping.
Each section is pulled from my actual studio setup, designed for retention, repeatability, and trust.
Whether you're just moving into your suite or refining what you've already built, this guide is here to support that quiet, professional kind of growth.
A minimalist guide to the gear, systems, and mindset I use to run a focused, profitable studio in a small space. (Links are for Amazon US and StaySetBeauty.com - If you’re outside of the US, search for the same items in your country.)
This setup is what I use—but it’s only part of the full picture.
