Recommended Thickness Guidelines
Standard Recommendations
- Suggestion of 1.15mm as an ideal standard thickness for classic applications due to its balance between weight and compatibility with most natural lashes.
Caution with Heavier Extensions
- Advises against using thicker extensions (1.20mm), especially on fine natural lashes due to potential damage risks; recommends careful consideration based on individual client needs.
Understanding Eyelash Extensions Techniques
Recommended Thickness for Classic Technique
- The recommended thicknesses for fine lashes in the classic one-by-one technique are 0.10 and 0.12, which yield good results while preserving the natural lash.
- It's crucial to evaluate the client's natural lashes during assessment, as different thicknesses cater to varying needs.
Curvature Choices Based on Client Preference
- Clients may desire subtle or dramatic looks; soft curves are used for a natural effect, while more dramatic curves like CC or D are recommended for bold results.
Length Variations in Mixed Blisters
- A mixed blister contains various lengths (7 mm to 14 mm), and using at least five lengths is essential for an aesthetically pleasing design.
- Commonly used lengths in applications include 9 mm, 10 mm, and 11 mm; single-length blisters can be beneficial to avoid waste.
Layering Techniques for Professional Results
- Clients often have multiple layers of lashes; isolating these layers allows for better application and a fuller look.
- Using tweezers like a hair comb helps separate layers effectively, ensuring that all layers receive attention during application.
Application Techniques with Tape Isolation
- Traditional isolation techniques involve taping areas around the eye to prevent adhesive vapors from causing irritation.
- Proper placement of tape is critical; it should not cover too much area but still allow visibility of the natural lash roots.
Importance of Filling Lower Layers Completely
- Ensuring that lower layers are filled completely leads to a denser appearance; clients will notice if any gaps remain after application.
- If time constraints prevent finishing upper layers, adequately filling lower ones can still create a complete look.
Lash Application Techniques
Importance of Covering the Lower Layer
- It is crucial to work on the lower layer at 100% coverage, meaning all sections must be addressed with either individual or volume extensions.
- Clients often check their lashes in the mirror; complete coverage minimizes the chance of them noticing any missed areas.
- Focusing solely on filling the lower layer can create an illusion of a complete application, even if other layers are not fully filled.
Transitioning to Middle and Upper Layers
- After completing the lower layer, proceed to isolate and work on the middle layer without removing tape used for isolation.
- It's recommended to use a brush when working on the middle layer for better directionality of natural lashes, making it easier to apply extensions.
Working with Healthy Lashes
- When removing tape, some healthy lashes may fall out naturally as they reach their life cycle's end (telogen phase).
- Losing one or two lashes during this process is normal and should not cause concern.
Adapting Techniques for Different Eye Shapes
- For clients with unique eye shapes (e.g., protruding or round eyes), alternative techniques may be necessary for effective lash isolation.
- Using mapping points marked on the client's skin helps indicate where size changes will occur during application.
Ensuring Client Comfort and Safety
- Properly securing the eye while applying lashes is essential to prevent irritation from adhesive fumes or discomfort from open eyes.
- A technique involving gentle pressure towards one side while taping down can help close the client's eye effectively without causing irritation.
How to Work with Different Layers of Eyelash Extensions
Working on the Lower Layer
- Begin by filling in the lower layer of eyelashes. Adjust the placement of the tape as needed for better access.
- After working on the lower layer, proceed to remove the tape and work on the middle layer while brushing through to ensure even application.
Transitioning to Higher Layers
- Once the middle layer is complete, remove any remaining tape and start filling in the upper layer. Adjust client’s head position for optimal access.
- When applying extensions near the inner corner (commissure), ensure that the client's eye is closed; adjust tape if necessary.
Tips for Directional Application
- If natural lashes point towards the nose, begin applying extensions from the outermost lash towards the inner corner to prevent sticking.
- Always brush through each layer before moving onto filling in subsequent layers, ensuring a neat finish.
Techniques for Isolating Lashes
- For effective isolation, use your hand holding tweezers against your client's forehead while placing extensions on their cheekbone.
- When working near tear ducts or central areas, adjust your hand positioning accordingly to maintain precision during application.
Precision in Lash Placement
- For central applications, move your hand slightly toward center while isolating lashes; this helps maintain control over extension placement.
- In commissure areas, rotate client’s head for straight access and adjust hand position as needed for accurate extension placement.
Finalizing Techniques and Design Considerations
- While working on different eye shapes (e.g., round or protruding), adapt techniques accordingly for best results.
- Ensure that your hands are stable when isolating lashes; avoid lifting them too high which can lead to inaccuracies during extension application.
Importance of Customization in Lash Design
- Each client requires a tailored approach based on their unique eye shape and needs; standard measures may not apply universally.
- Understanding design principles will enhance efficiency and effectiveness during lash application processes.
Mapping Techniques Explained
- Learn about mapping as a guide that outlines lengths and thicknesses required for specific designs tailored to individual clients' needs.
- Proper mapping facilitates smoother application processes by providing clear guidelines throughout lash extension work.
Understanding Eyelash Extension Designs
Importance of Design in Eyelash Extensions
- The design of eyelash extensions is crucial for determining the sizes and lengths used throughout the application. Poor design can lead to unappealing results, such as uniform length from start to finish.
- A well-executed design enhances the appearance of the eyes, preventing them from looking heavy or droopy. Properly designed extensions can make a significant difference in how attractive the eyes appear.
- Each client requires a personalized design based on their unique eye shape and features. This customization allows for corrections or enhancements that highlight desirable aspects of their eyes.
Conducting an Eye Study
- It’s essential to inform clients that each design will be tailored specifically for them, as individual eye shapes vary significantly.
- An eye study involves evaluating four key points:
- Drawing an imaginary line through the tear duct and outer corner to assess if the eyes are ascending or descending.
- Evaluating how close or far apart the eyes are.
- Identifying the shape of the eyes (round, almond-shaped, etc.).
- Assessing whether the eyes are prominent or recessed.
Corrective Measures in Design
- Based on evaluations, corrective measures may include elongating round or prominent eyes or applying designs that open up smaller, closed-off eyes.
- After completing an eye study, five distinct designs can be applied to address various eye types effectively while ensuring aesthetic appeal.
Mapping Techniques for Application
- Once a suitable design is chosen based on the eye study, creating a mapping is essential. This serves as a guide for selecting lengths, curves, and thicknesses during application.
- The mapping process should occur on a hydrogel patch placed on the client’s model. It's important to draw lines and boxes indicating where different lengths will be applied throughout the procedure.
Customization vs. Pre-Marked Designs
- For effective results, it’s recommended to use at least five different lengths in any given design. Avoid pre-marked hydrogel patches since they may not align with individual client needs due to varying high points in designs.
- Understanding effects versus designs is critical; effects build upon one of the five foundational designs discussed earlier. Mastery of these base designs is necessary before attempting advanced techniques like foxy ice or eyeliner effects.
Understanding Eyelash Extension Designs
Importance of Effects vs. Designs
- The term "effects" should not be confused with designs; effects are additional enhancements to the application of eyelash extensions.
- When creating a custom design, it's crucial to explain options to clients and guide them based on their eye shape and preferences.
Client Consultation and Design Selection
- Clients may present photos for desired designs, but it's essential to assess whether those designs suit their specific eye characteristics.
- Understanding five basic eyelash extension designs is vital before application: natural, squirrel, cat, cut, and doll.
Overview of Basic Designs
Natural Design
- The natural design is neutral and suitable for all eye types; it does not alter or correct the appearance significantly.
Squirrel Design
- This design accentuates the outer iris area, providing a slight stretch effect that can help with closely set eyes or drooping corners.
Cat Design
- Caution is advised when applying this design on clients with droopy eyes as it may enhance sadness in their expression instead of lifting it.
Cut Design
- In this design, lengths approach the outer corner but must maintain 3–5 mm distance from the comissure to avoid drooping effects.
Advanced Techniques for Eye Shapes
Doll Design
- Recommended for clients with elongated or almond-shaped eyes; focuses on enhancing central length while maintaining balance across the lash line.
Considerations for Specific Eye Types
- For Asian or long-eyed clients, ensure enough space at the inner corner (4–8 mm), allowing for appropriate size adjustments without compromising aesthetics.
Eyelash Design Techniques and Considerations
Understanding Client Needs and Eye Shapes
- The design must favor the client, taking into account their unique eye shape. For clients with slanted or shorter eyes, an "Open" design can be utilized to enhance their appearance.
- When assessing space for lash designs, focus on the iris's starting and ending points to determine where to apply the highest point of length in the lash design.
Length and Volume Considerations
- Applying excessively long lashes (14-15mm) can visually shorten the eye instead of opening it. It's crucial to balance length with volume to achieve a desired look.
- To round out and open up a client's gaze, evaluate their natural lash length. Recommended maximum lengths are typically 12mm for healthy lashes, with some cases allowing for 13mm.
Mapping Natural Lash Designs
- Marking the highest point of a natural lash design involves positioning the client correctly and identifying key reference points: halfway through the iris and at the outer edge towards the nose.
- Begin mapping by marking only essential points while ensuring visibility of natural lashes; avoid marking lines that could obscure them during application.
Evaluating Natural Lash Length
- Assessing natural lash length is vital for selecting appropriate extensions. Use curves like B or C to measure accurately; these curves help determine how much longer extensions should be than natural lashes.
- If most natural lashes measure around 9mm, consider increasing by 1-2mm for extensions, leading to a maximum point of around 11mm while tapering down towards inner corners.
Adhesive Selection and Application Techniques
- Understanding different types of adhesives is critical as they vary in drying time and suitability based on application techniques. Proper care and usage are essential for optimal retention of eyelash extensions.
Adhesive Selection for Eyelash Extensions
Importance of Adhesives
- The choice of adhesive is crucial for achieving desired results in eyelash extension applications. Using the correct adhesive ensures optimal performance.
- Different techniques, such as classic or Russian volume, require specific adhesives tailored to the user's experience and application speed.
Factors Influencing Adhesive Performance
- Key parameters affecting adhesive function include temperature and humidity; these must be controlled for effective drying.
- Beginners are advised to start with slow-drying adhesives like Glue Black (gold cap), which has a drying time of 3 seconds, allowing more time for corrections during application.
Progressing Through Adhesives
- As users gain experience, they may find slower adhesives inadequate. Transitioning to faster-drying options like Glue Expert (1-2 seconds drying time) can enhance efficiency without sacrificing control.
- Staying with a slow adhesive too long can lead to issues like "stickies," where extensions adhere unintentionally due to mismatched application speed.
Recommended Adhesives for Different Techniques
- For those transitioning from basic techniques, Elite glue is recommended due to its favorable parameters and 1-second drying time, suitable for both classic and volume applications.
- Elite glue is included in beginner kits for Russian volume applications (light volumes like 2D/3D), providing sufficient drying time for fan creation.
Advanced Options for Experienced Users
- More experienced technicians should consider Volume Glue (0.5 seconds drying time), ideal for Russian volume techniques.
- The fastest option available is Volume One glue (0.25 seconds), which is transparent—beneficial when applying colored extensions as it maintains a clean appearance during application.
Adhesive Application Techniques and Parameters
Importance of Adhesive Types
- The use of black fibers is acceptable; however, transparent fibers are preferred for a cleaner application and faster results.
- Quick-drying adhesives like Elite can be used for classic techniques, but slower drying options should not be used for Russian volume techniques due to application difficulties.
Temperature and Humidity Parameters
- Recommended humidity levels for adhesives range from 45% to 60%, with some adhesives tolerating up to 70%.
- Maintaining proper temperature (19°C to 24°C) is crucial; higher temperatures can cause the adhesive to become sticky or dry too quickly, leading to product waste.
Effects of Improper Temperature
- High temperatures may cause the adhesive drop on the Jade stone to become unusable within minutes.
- Low temperatures result in overly liquid adhesives that cannot effectively bond extensions, necessitating a firm consistency resembling a pearl.
Humidity's Role in Drying Time
- Standard humidity levels affect drying times; excessive humidity accelerates drying while low humidity slows it down significantly.
- For example, using Volume One adhesive at high humidity can lead to premature setting before proper extension placement.
Client Experiences and Recommendations
- Clients in humid climates have reported success with the Elite adhesive due to its adaptability in varying conditions.
- It's essential to assess clients' experience levels when recommending adhesives like Volume One, as it requires specific skills for effective use.
Adhesive Selection and Application Techniques
Importance of Adhesive Choice
- The choice of adhesive is crucial, not just due to the tension but also based on the technique and experience level of the user. For instance, Volume One adhesive dries in 0.5 seconds and is recommended for experienced users.
- The Elite adhesive has specific requirements regarding temperature and humidity; failure to maintain these conditions can lead to ineffective application.
Application Techniques
- Quick-drying adhesives like Elite can be used for classic techniques if the user is proficient. However, slow-drying adhesives are not suitable for Russian volume techniques due to their viscosity.
- Slow-drying adhesives have medium viscosity which can cause issues when creating fans; they may close up during application, leading to improper fan shapes.
Fan Creation Challenges
- When using slow-drying adhesives, fans may lose symmetry as the adhesive continues to act after being dipped, potentially closing them up.
- Demonstration with Glue Black shows that using a slow-drying adhesive results in closed fans instead of open ones necessary for Russian volume techniques.
Benefits of Fast-Drying Adhesives
- Fast-drying adhesives with low viscosity help maintain fan shape by drying quickly upon contact, preventing closure or loss of symmetry during application.
- Monitoring environmental factors such as temperature and humidity is essential for optimal adhesive performance. Tools like boosters and nanomisters can assist in maintaining ideal conditions.
Step-by-Step Application Process
- The upcoming module will cover detailed steps for applying eyelash extensions including cleaning procedures, patch placement, mapping techniques, hand positioning, and isolation methods.
- Emphasis on thorough pre-cleaning with micellar water followed by a specialized lash mousse to ensure proper pH balance before starting the extension process.
Preparation and Application of Eyelash Extensions
Cleaning the Eye Area
- Begin by applying product to the mobile eyelid using a microfibre brush, ensuring to direct the product downwards to avoid eye injury.
- Cleanse thoroughly around the eyelashes and prepare for taping by rinsing with water to remove any soap residue; instruct the client to tilt their head slightly for better access.
- Emphasize the importance of adequately cleaning natural lashes for optimal retention during application; ensure no moisture remains in the working area.
Assessing Natural Lashes
- Dry the lashes completely before starting application; use an eye brush to comb through and assess lash health, length, and thickness.
- Conduct a gaze study on the model's eyes, noting that they are almond-shaped with normal spacing, allowing flexibility in design choice.
Designing Lash Extensions
- Choose a "squirrel" design for elongation based on lash spacing; this design accommodates longer lengths without appearing awkward.
- Combine different curl types (C and CC curves) based on natural lash growth direction—straight at one end and slightly downward at another—to achieve symmetry.
Marking Design Points
- Use a fine-point sharpie to mark high points of the design while ensuring that the model focuses on a fixed point for accuracy.
- Establish key points: where natural lashes end and align them with facial features (e.g., nose tip), marking these accurately is crucial for achieving desired results.
Hygiene Practices Before Application
- Prioritize hygiene by washing hands thoroughly; consider using gloves if preferred. Disinfect hands with microdacin spray after washing.
- Apply hydrogel pads under lower lashes to protect them during extension application; ensure proper placement without air bubbles or discomfort.
Final Preparations
- Position hydrogel pads correctly: narrow side towards inner corner of eye, wider side towards outer corner. Ensure model's eyes are open during placement for accuracy.
- Confirm that all lower lashes are secured outside of pad area; use tweezers or microbrushes as needed to adjust any misplaced hairs before proceeding with mapping.
This structured approach ensures clarity in both preparation and execution phases of eyelash extension application, emphasizing safety, hygiene, and aesthetic considerations throughout.
Application of Eyelash Extensions: Measuring and Mapping
Measuring Natural Lashes
- The first step in the application process is measuring the client's natural lashes using a soft curve extension, such as C or B. For example, if the natural lash length is approximately 11 mm, this will guide the extension length.
- Based on the natural lash measurement (11 mm), it is recommended to increase by two to three lengths for optimal design. In this case, a length of 13 mm will be used at the highest point.
Mapping Process
- The mapping involves marking points on the eyelid starting from the highest point downwards. Lengths decrease sequentially towards both outer corners (comisura and lagrimales).
- A guideline for starting lengths suggests that if beginning with 7 mm at lagrimales, then ending at comisura should be no more than two lengths higher (9 mm maximum).
Proportional Sizing
- The size of each section (casillas) must be proportional to the eye's dimensions. If four sections are needed down to 9 mm, they should fit comfortably within that space.
- There are no strict rules for casilla sizes; they depend on individual client eye sizes and how thick each section needs to be based on their specific measurements.
Layering Technique
- To achieve a perfect line in layering, note down middle and high layer lengths after establishing base layer length. This ensures consistency across all layers.
- Generally, only one or two lengths are applied in corner areas due to fewer lashes present there compared to central areas where most lashes concentrate.
Design Considerations
- A "ardilla" design is noted along with thickness and curves being utilized—combining curves from 7 to 12 with a C curve and transitioning from point high (13 mm) downwards using CC curve.
Taping Techniques for Lash Application
Standard Taping Method
- Begin taping by placing micropore tape near where natural lashes start at lagrimales, pulling slightly towards the brow for better visibility during application.
Securing Lashes
- A second piece of tape is placed at comisura while ensuring it lifts slightly towards the brow without opening up the eye too much during isolation checks.
Layer Division
- Use a third piece of tape to lift lashes mid-length; avoid taping too low as it may complicate isolating lower layers effectively.
Isolating Lower Layers
- Focus on securing only tips of long natural lashes when taping; this helps manage shorter lower-layer lashes which may fall back naturally.
Preparing for Application
Final Preparations
- After completing taping procedures, begin isolating lower layers by introducing extensions straight into them until reaching lagrimales area where all short hairs should now be secured properly.
Material Overview
- Classic lash materials include mixed blister packs featuring curls C and CC in thicknesses of 0.15mm ranging from 7mm to 14mm; these are ideal for beginners due to ease of use when applying extensions.
Application of Classic Eyelash Extensions
Tools and Adhesives Used
- The speaker discusses the use of a specific adhesive drop on a stone, emphasizing that the sticker helps keep the adhesive fresh for longer.
- Two types of tweezers are introduced: a curved tweezer (number three) for picking up extensions and a flat tweezer (number six) for isolation during application.
- The speaker recommends using "Black glue" or "Expert glue" for beginners due to their quick drying times, while experienced users may opt for "Elite glue."
Isolation Techniques
- Proper hand positioning is crucial when isolating natural lashes; the tweezer should not touch the patch to avoid irritation or injury.
- The importance of selecting appropriate extension lengths based on the natural lash's growth phase is highlighted, suggesting shorter extensions if necessary.
Extension Application Process
- Maintaining control over extension direction is essential; all extensions should be placed at 90 degrees regardless of the natural lash's angle.
- The speaker emphasizes that slow-drying adhesives allow time for adjustments to ensure proper alignment of extensions.
Layering Techniques
- As layers are built, it's important to monitor mapping and switch curves as needed to maintain an aesthetically pleasing design.
- Filling in lower layers completely is critical since this layer will be most visible to clients and affects overall appearance in photographs.
Finalizing Layers
- After completing the lower layer, any missing extensions should be corrected before moving on to fill in the middle layer.
- The middle layer begins from point 12 with careful attention paid to maintaining straight placement throughout application.
Aesthetic Considerations
- When filling in layers, starting lighter near the inner corners creates a more appealing look that gradually becomes denser towards the outer edges.
- It’s crucial not to use longer extensions in middle layers than those used in lower layers, as this can disrupt design consistency.
Application Techniques for Eyelash Extensions
Preparing the Application Area
- The top line is no longer defined, and the medium layer has been filled. This enhances the overall appearance of the application.
- The removal of tape is done carefully to avoid pulling natural lashes. Brushing helps incorporate new extensions into the application.
Layering and Adhesive Application
- The high layer will be covered next, ensuring that all areas including lacrimal and outer corners are fully addressed.
- When applying extensions, they should be inserted straight into the adhesive drop at its center for a clean base.
- It's crucial to avoid "stickies," where extensions adhere to each other improperly during application.
Extension Placement Techniques
- Proper introduction of extensions into adhesive prevents them from sticking together; maintaining distance between applied lashes is essential.
- After applying an extension, hold it in place for a few seconds before releasing gently to prevent adhesion with nearby lashes.
Finalizing the Design
- Once the high layer is complete, tapes are lowered to assess design integrity and ensure no extensions protrude excessively.
- A mirror check confirms that all extensions align with the desired design without any lower lashes sticking to upper ones.
Sealing and Finishing Touches
- Tapes are removed completely while using a brush to direct all extensions properly.
- A nanomister is used at a safe distance from the client's face to seal adhesive without disrupting drying or causing crystallization.
Cleaning Up Post Application
- Marks on eyelids are cleaned with a micro brush dipped in micellar water, ensuring minimal moisture exposure to extensions.
- The patch is removed gently from outer corner towards inner corner while instructing clients on eye opening timing post-light shutdown.
Result Overview
- The final look features a symmetrical design combining curves (C and CC), showcasing uniformity in curl throughout.
- Mink fibers provide a semi-matte finish; synthetic materials offer a more natural appearance while allowing for dense layering when applied correctly.
Introduction to Flat Fibers in Eyelash Extensions
Overview of Flat Fibers
- The module introduces flat fibers, which provide a denser appearance compared to classic techniques, catering to clients who prefer a more dramatic look.
- A practical step-by-step guide will be provided on how to apply these special flat fibers effectively.
Characteristics of Flat Fibers
- Unlike classic cylindrical fibers, flat fibers have a flat base that makes them easier to apply and lighter due to reduced weight.
- These fibers feature a double tip design that enhances the natural effect during application.
Available Sizes and Curves
- Flat fibers are available in thicknesses of 0.15 and 0.20 mm, with three different curves: C, CC, and D.
- It is crucial to assess the client's natural lashes for selecting the appropriate curve and thickness for optimal results.
Application Techniques for Flat Fibers
Blister Packaging Options
- The flat mate fibers come in three blister packs: sizes 8-10 mm, 11-13 mm, and 14-16 mm; having at least two different blisters is recommended for proper application.
Considerations for Volume Applications
- For volume applications (2D or 3D), it’s necessary to reduce the thickness by using sizes below 0.10 mm since the flat extensions are designed primarily for classic one-to-one applications.
Practical Application Demonstration
Eye Design Study
- A real model will demonstrate how to correctly apply the fiber while assessing eye shape and determining suitable designs based on individual characteristics.
Choosing Designs Based on Eye Shape
- Different designs such as "ardilla" (squirrel style) or "cat" can be chosen based on whether the eye appears round or slightly droopy; this helps create an elongated effect.
Evaluating Natural Lashes
Assessing Lash Direction and Thickness
- The natural lash direction must be evaluated; if they curve downwards towards the outer corner, combining curves may be necessary for uniformity across extensions.
Selecting Appropriate Curves
- A combination of soft curves (C curve from inner corner to iris end and CC curve from iris end to outer corner) is suggested based on lash characteristics.
Preparation Before Application
Marking Points for Design
- Key points are marked before application: one at the end of the iris and another aligned with the nose's edge extending towards this point.
Hygiene Practices
- Emphasizes washing hands thoroughly before starting; optional use of gloves can enhance hygiene during application.
Using Protective Pads
- Soft hydrogel pads are recommended as they protect client skin during eyelash extension procedures.
Hydrogel Patch Application Techniques
Proper Placement of Hydrogel Patch
- The hydrogel patch should be applied while ensuring the client's eyes are open and looking towards the technician for better placement.
- It is crucial to position the patch correctly, avoiding contact with the tear duct or inner corner of the eye, focusing on covering only the lower lashes.
- If any lower lashes protrude from the patch, micropore tape can be used to secure them in place.
Measuring Natural Lash Length
- Measure natural lash length using a soft curve (C or B curve), determining how much longer extensions can be applied.
- For example, if natural lashes measure approximately 10 mm, extensions can range from 12 to 13 mm at their highest point in design.
Mapping and Design Considerations
- Marking high points on the eyelid helps establish extension lengths; for instance, reducing lengths towards both inner and outer corners of the eye.
- Documenting design details such as fiber thickness and curves during mapping aids in future touch-ups or client records.
Taping Techniques for Lash Application
- Taping assists in lifting lashes for easier application of extensions; start by placing tape near the tear duct area.
- Ensure that tape does not disturb the client's closed eye; adjustments may be necessary if it opens during application.
Layer Separation During Application
- Use additional tape to separate layers of lashes effectively without disturbing their natural alignment.
- Carefully remove lower layer lashes while ensuring no gaps remain between them; this ensures a smooth application process.
Application of Flat Fibers in Eyelash Extensions
Design and Materials Used
- The application design involves using flat fibers with four blisters, mixing curves (two blister each for curve C and curve CC) to achieve desired lengths.
- Each blister contains three sizes; for example, one ranges from size 8 to 10, while another goes from 11 to 13. This variety is essential for mixing curves and sizes effectively.
Application Process
- A curved base palette is utilized to facilitate easier placement of extensions, allowing for a smoother application process.
- Stickers are used on the jade stone to keep the adhesive fresh longer during the application process.
Layering Techniques
- The initial application starts with a low layer, placing extensions above natural lashes for better adherence.
- For very curled natural lashes, it’s suggested to place extensions underneath; however, straight lashes can be treated by placing them directly above.
Direction and Isolation
- All extensions must be placed at a consistent angle of 90 degrees relative to the natural lash direction.
- Proper isolation of natural lashes is crucial before applying extensions. The technician should ensure visibility of the lash base without obstruction from tape or skin.
Filling Layers Effectively
- It’s important to completely fill the lower layer as it is visible when clients open their eyes; gaps can lead to an uneven appearance.
- When moving onto the middle layer, care must be taken not to disturb upper layers that may still be taped down during this phase.
Final Touches and Adjustments
- After applying middle layers, brushing through helps integrate new extensions into existing ones for a seamless look.
- Starting from the inner corner towards the outer corner ensures even coverage across all layers while maintaining uniformity in appearance.
Application Techniques for Eyelash Extensions
Preparing the Model and Initial Steps
- The extension is placed at a 90-degree angle, ensuring a contact area of 1 mm. The natural lash should be visible on the left side.
- After filling the middle layer, some gaps remain. A third layer will be added to achieve a fuller look.
Layering and Adjustments
- The tweezers are no longer needed to pull lashes; tape can be carefully removed to reveal the high layer of lashes underneath.
- Using a brush, the newly lowered lashes are combed into place while adjusting their direction for better volume in the upper layer.
Finalizing Lash Application
- Tape is repositioned to lift part of the eyelid for better visibility when applying extensions correctly along the lash line.
- Once all layers are filled, tape is gently removed. Micellar water and a micro brush are used to clean any marks from the eyelid.
Sealing and Drying Process
- A nanomister is utilized to encapsulate adhesive vapors effectively; it must be held at an appropriate distance during application.
- Following this, a mini fan helps dry excess micellar water but does not directly aid in drying adhesive.
Final Checks and Recommendations
- Before removing eye pads, ensure no lashes are stuck together; lights should be turned off before allowing the client to open their eyes.
- Flat extensions are recommended for clients with downward-facing lashes due to their flat base providing better contact area.
Understanding Extension Types and Techniques
- Flat extensions offer lighter weight compared to classic ones but should only be used for classic applications (one-to-one).
- For volume techniques (2D or 3D), finer thicknesses like 0.07 mm are necessary instead of thicker fibers used in classic applications.
