Launch Pad artists act as Lash Lab PDX ambassadors. On your rental days you help promote Lash Lab supplies, and on the days you work in the lab you help customers check out.

Ambassador Program πŸ’•
Your Space

Your Lash Station

Every Launch Pad artist shares the same Lash Lab station on their scheduled days. It's set up and ready for you:

  • Recliner
  • Lash light
  • Lash stool
  • Lash cabinet

Because everyone shares one station, we take just 3–4 lash artists per year.

What We Ask

Free rent works when everyone shows up and does their part. Here's what every Launch Pad artist agrees to:

  • πŸͺͺ
    Keep your license current. Maintain your license and follow legal business protocol.
  • πŸŽ“
    Finish the Launch Pad resources. Complete all of the resources and free trainings.
  • πŸ’•
    Be trained by Lash Lab PDX. Complete your lash training with us.
  • πŸ—“οΈ
    Keep your schedule. Be prepared to be in the salon from 9:30 am to 5 pm on your 1–2 days each week.
  • πŸ›οΈ
    Help with Lash Lab supplies. Promote products on your rental day and help customers check out on the days you work in the lab.
  • 🧼
    Keep it clean. Maintain a clean, sanitary station and share salon chores with all of the other service providers.
  • ✨
    Stay professional. Maintain professionalism inside and outside of the salon.

The Three-Strike Rule

Each missed scheduled day is a strike. On the third missed day, your Launch Pad contract ends and the next artist on the waitlist gets the opportunity.
