There are some tools that must be used when performing eyelash extensions. sThe correct application of each eyelash extension helps lash artists create a perfect lash set and deliver greater retention. Here are some of the items required for successful eyelash extension application that you must know.
1. Tweezers
Tweezers are a must-have tool for lashing. A lash service requires the use of two sets of tweezers. The first set of tweezers, isolation tweezers, are designed specifically for “isolating” each natural lash to guarantee a smooth application. This ensures that no other natural lash or extension will adhere to the natural lash you’ve chosen.
Lashing tweezers are the next set of tweezers you’ll need. Yes, you will be holding isolation tweezers in one hand and lashing tweezers in the other. The lash tweezers are used to pick up and place the lash extensions. Choose tweezers that feel well in your hand. To guarantee a safe and sanitary workplace, tweezers must be properly sterilized between customers.
2. Lash primer
Eyelash primer eliminates makeup residue, oil, and dust from the client’s lashes before you start the application. This pre-treatment cleaning technique can help the adhesive work better, and increase retention. The eyelash primer contains allantoin, a natural herbal extract recognized for its antibacterial and cell-rejuvenating characteristics. Its usage promotes healthy natural lashes and reduces damage to the natural lashes.
3. Eye pads/foam tape
We’ve all heard how important lash tape is. Foam tape is used to prevent the upper lashes from sticking to the bottom lashes and sticking together. It also helps you to see the lashes more clearly by lifting the upper eyelid.
However, you have to be fully aware of whether your customer’s eyes are sensitive or not. If they have sensitive eyes, hypoallergenic microfoam tape is recommended. You also have to place the foam tape correctly to avoid causing discomfort to your customers during the process.
4. Lash Tile and Crystal Stone
Lash tiles are a product that helps you arrange your lashes and apply them more simply. For example, while using a variety of lash sizes, keeping track of which sizes you put on your desk might be difficult. This is why lash tiles include designated lines to assist you to distinguish lash sizes and prevent you from accidentally losing or using the wrong length. Crystal Stone is a superior adhesive surface that is used to keep the glue fresh during application.
5. Nano mister
A Nano mister is a tiny, portable device. Its nozzle sprays a regulated micro-mist of water. Nano misters accelerate the curing process of adhesives, reducing the required “drying time” from 24-48 hours to 4-10 hours! They’re quite cool and certainly something you should check into.
6. Hygrometer & thermometer
Every lash artist must master their room temperature and humidity in order for their eyelash adhesive to perform perfectly. The usage of a hygrometer is critical to the proper workability of your lash adhesive as well as the retention of your customers’ lashes. The hygrometer is equipment that displays both the humidity and temperature readings in your lash environment. These data will allow you to control your settings to accommodate the eyelash extension glue.
