Meet the Local Franchisees

Fiona and Jeff Lai, a brother-sister duo from the Bay Area, are combining their diverse professional backgrounds to embark on their first business venture together. Jeff, an accomplished lawyer at a global law firm, and Fiona, a Salesforce Alliance Manager at Own Data with prior experience as a Product Manager at Facebook, were drawn to LashBar through Fiona's personal experience as a regular client. Inspired by the brand's growth potential and her passion for the service, they are now set to expand its presence in the Bay Area, starting with Santa Clara.

"For my brother and I, opening our own LashBar in the Bay Area is incredibly exciting. We've always wanted to bring something special to our community, and we're thrilled to offer a service we genuinely love," said Fiona Lai. "Being able to do this together, right here where we grew up, makes it even more meaningful. We can't wait for the community to experience the exceptional service and quality that LashBar brings."

Behind the LashBar Brand

The founders of LashBar™, Joseph and Lina Mai, are California natives and a husband-and-wife team. After spending nearly 20 years as a hair stylist, Lina discovered a passion for lash extensions while preparing for their wedding. The duo opened their first LashBar in 2017, and with business on a positive trajectory, the Mai's decided to scale the concept through franchising, launching the franchise opportunity in 2018. Since then, LashBar™ has grown to 13 open and operating franchise locations, with more in various stages of development.

LashBar™ was recently acquired by Blo Blow Dry Bar and will be merging with Blo's existing lash concept, LashKind, to further enhance its offerings and expand its reach.
