How do eyelash extensions work?

Eyelash extensions work by individually attaching artificial lashes to your natural lashes, enhancing their length, thickness, and curl. The process typically involves the following steps:

Preparation

Remove eye makeup: Make sure your eyes are clean and free of mascara, eyeliner and other cosmetic residues.

Clean eye skin: Clean the roots of eyelashes, remove oil and dirt, and create good conditions for attaching eyelashes.

Choose materials

Common eyelash materials include artificial fibers, real human hair (such as mink hair, silk, etc.), and synthetic materials.

The choice of materials should be based on personal needs, allergy history, and expectations for the effect.

Professional operation

Professional tools: Use tools such as eyelash curlers, eyelash trays, eyelash glue, and tweezers.

Operation steps:

Use an eyelash curler to gently curl up your natural eyelashes and make them slightly curled.

Apply an appropriate amount of eyelash glue on the eyelash tray, and then dip the artificial eyelashes into a little eyelash glue.

Use tweezers to bring the artificial eyelashes with glue close to the roots of natural eyelashes and press gently for a few seconds to ensure that the two are firmly bonded.

Repeat the above steps until you achieve a satisfactory eyelash effect.

Precautions

Professional operation: Since eyelash extension is a delicate work that requires professional skills and patience, it is recommended to be operated by an experienced professional beautician.

Glue selection: Make sure the eyelash glue used is of good quality and non-irritating to reduce the risk of allergies. During the operation, it is necessary to test the individual's sensitivity to the glue.

Follow-up care:

Avoid contact with water within 24 hours after eyelash extension to ensure that the glue is fully dried and fixed.

Be gentle when using makeup removers and avoid direct contact with the newly extended eyelashes.

Avoid using oily cosmetics as they may damage the adhesion of the eyelash glue.

Return to the beauty salon regularly for repair and maintenance to maintain the beauty and durability of eyelashes. Usually, repair is required every 2-4 weeks.

Advantages

Enhance eye charm: Make eyes look bigger and more energetic.

Save makeup time: Reduce the time of applying mascara and sticking false eyelashes every day.

Long-term effect: One eyelash extension can last for several weeks, eliminating the trouble of frequent makeup.

Environmental materials: Modern eyelash extension technology usually uses environmentally friendly and safe materials to reduce eye irritation and allergy risks.

In summary, eyelash extensions achieve the effect of beautifying the eyes by firmly attaching artificial eyelashes to natural eyelashes through delicate professional operations. Throughout the process, choosing the right materials, professional operations, and subsequent careful care are all crucial.
