Lash Artist Slow Season

When is the slow season for a lash artist?

For most lash artists, the slowest months of the year are Feb, March, April, May, August, September, October. The slowest of them all being August and September.

Why are lash artists slow during these months?

Of course, we don't know for sure, but I guess that February through May are slower because people are recovering from the holiday season and taxes are due. August through October may be slower because kids go back to school, and life slows down a bit. I'd love to hear why you think these months are slower in the comments below!
