Design eyelash extension for clients

 

What should be taken into consideration when design eyelashes for a customer? - OUR LASH

 

Eyelashes, which seem to be just a tiny part of hair, are really, really important in our facial makeup! Just like doing eyelash extension is not just simply attach false eyelashes to real lashes, in fact, it is a very high technical requirements of beauty technology, need to design according to the need of eye shape, eyelash curl degree and hair and eyebrow color to carry on the professional design!

So what should be taken into consideration when lash technicians carry on a professional design for customer?

 

First consider the following situations:

 

1. The quality of customer’s own eyelashes

Some girls' lashes are sparse and soft, but when they choose lash extensions, they prefer thick and hard long lashes, and request two or three false lashes attached in one real eyelash. Obviously the coming out effect is not natural, and it is easy to crush the real lashes.

Only one false eyelash is attached to one real eyelash is better. Depending on the number of lashes you have, 120 to 140 are the best. Keep the number of binocular grafts within this range for the most natural results.

2. Consider customer’s professional identity

Though being beautiful is your own business, if you're a flight attendant, imagine how your passengers will react to your exaggerated false eyelashes? For some special professions, such as stewardess, it is better to choose the natural type.

3. People who often wear heavy makeup should think carefully

It says that some specific professions are not suitable for thickening eyelashes, but on the contrary, other professions, such as circus performers and performing artists, often require heavy makeup to achieve artistic effect. Why should they seriously consider thickening eyelashes?

Given how often these people have to put on and remove makeup, and how often they toss around, the eyelashes can easily be damaged. And because the characters don't necessarily need thick, long eyelashes, sometimes it's difficult to remove them just after grafting.

 

In addition to not blindly pursuing dense, we should also pay attention to the following four points when choosing eyelashes:

 

1.       Length: 9mm-14mm, designed to fit customer’s natural eyelashes.

 

2.      Curling shape: the most suitable shape for natural eyelashes. The over-curling simulation eyelashes are difficult to maintain for a long time, not natural enough and slightly exaggerated.

 

3.      Gloss: Some customer like matte lashes while some like shiny options, but too shiny will show plastic feelings so proper gloss is better.

 

4.Thickness:0.03mm,0.05mm,0.07mm,0.10mm,0.15mm,0.20mm... and so on.

Eyelash extensions have a variety of styles, thickness, length and curls, as many as dozens of matching available for customers to choose, a full range of personalized requirements to meet different customers.

 

Before eyelash grafting, we can communicate with the customer on eyelash curl types and lengths to decide, choose the correct curl, length and thickness according to the state of the eye contour and customer’s natural lash states and give proper & professional suggestions to customers.

Never use these body languages when talking to customers

 

This is Our Lash. Let’s a talk about never use these body languages when talking to customers today.

Never underestimate smile! Small gestures like these in conversation can help build a subtle rapport between the speakers! So what body language should you pay attention to when communicating with customers?

1.       Low energy

It's a sign of disrespect, a sign that you're bored and don't want to be there at all. You would never say to your customers, "Why should I take orders from you?" But if you slouch, your body will tell you loudly and clearly.

2. Exaggerated gestures

It suggests you're exaggerating, but small gestures can show leadership and confidence. Things like open arms and open hands tell each other that you're not hiding anything.

3. Check the time when you talk

It shows that you are somewhat anxious and conceited, disrespectful to the other person, and it means that you have better things to do and are anxious to get away from them.

4. By physically distancing yourself from the person you are talking to, you are telling them that you are not interested in what is being said or that you do not trust what they are saying.

The correct way to do this is to lean slightly towards the customer you are talking to, or turn your head slightly away, and concentrate on what the customer is saying.

5. Crossed arms or legs

Crossed arms or legs can act as a barrier and indicate that you are not open to conversation. Even if you have a pleasant conversation, the customer will still feel excluded. Refrain from crossing your arms if you want the customer to know that you're open and interested.

6. Discordant words and facial expressions

It will make the customer feel that something is wrong and begin to suspect that you are deceiving them. For example, in a negotiation, a nervous smile does not calm the atmosphere, but rather makes the customer feel uneasy and misunderstand that you have other ideas.

7. Exaggerated nods reveal anxiety.

People may think the heavy nod is just a cover for what you really think, when you don't agree or understand.

8. Fidgeting or fidgeting with your hair indicates anxiety, exuberance, conceit, and lack of concentration.

Customers will think that you care too much about your appearance and not too much about their lashes.

9. Avoiding eye contact can make customer suspect that you're hiding something.

Lack of eye contact also shows that you are not interested in communicating and lack confidence. Looking down during a conversation can signal that you lack confidence or are focused on yourself, which diminishes the impact of your words. Therefore, pay special attention to eye level when making complex or important points.

10. Too strong eye contact can make the customer think you're aggressive or trying to be dominant.

Americans make eye contact for an average of seven to 10 seconds, slightly longer when listening than when speaking. The way you look away also sends a message. Looking down indicates obedience. Looking sideways indicates confidence.

11. Rolling your eyes is a sign of lack of respect

For some people, it's a habit, it happens spontaneously, but if you control it, you can get some good results.

12. Frowns or other unhappy expressions send a message that you are upset and turn people away from you.

Even if your mood isn't theirs, they'll still feel it's theirs. Smiling, on the other hand, makes the customer feel that you are open, confident, friendly and trustworthy.

13. A light handshake indicates a lack of authority and confidence, while a heavy handshake indicates aggression and seeking dominance.

The strength of the handshake varies depending on the subject and situation, but always be firm.

14. The distance between you and your customer is too close.

 If you are less than half a meter away from the customer, it shows that you have no concept of personal space and makes people feel uncomfortable.

Q3：Are there any other color choices for eyelash extensions?

There’re definitely different color options for eyelash extensions!

As eyelashes become more and more popular, eyelash business keeps coming up with new ideas, women can experiment with different colors of eyelash, so your lash extensions can also come in purple, red, blue and pink, as well as the other rainbow colors.

These lashes can blend in with our own black lashes, but our own lashes do not need to be dyed.

Q4：Can I use mascaras after eyelash extensions?

After eyelash extensions, the eyelashes will have a thick curly three-dimensional effect, natural and beautiful than false eyelashes, mascara and makeup removal products will cause a bad impact on the eyelash extensions, so try not to use mascara.

If you really want to apply mascara, be sure to choose a simple mascara product that can be removed with warm water. Avoid waterproof mascara that requires makeup remover, because oily products will shorten the life of your eyelash extensions. In addition when apply mascaras, avoid eyelash roots as far as possible, begin from the middle of lashes is better.

Q5：How should I do if I don’t like my eyelash extensions after days?

It’s recommend to think carefully before you do eyelash extensions, because it costs your money and time as well lash technician’s efforts to finish the eyelash sets.

But if it must be removed for some special reasons, you can come back and we have professional eyelash removals that can discharge eyelash extensions without hurting your own eyelashes.

Q6：Why my eyelash extensions start falling off after only a few days?

On the one hand, there might be a problem with the glue or grafting techniques on the lashes you have done.

On the other hand, we lose 3-5 natural eyelashes every day, but because the eyelashes are small, you may ignore the missing of eyelashes. Eyelash extensions are attached to your own eyelashes during grafting. So when your own eyelashes fall off, the eyelash extensions that are grafted on them will also fall off. With eyelash extensions your attention to your lashes is heightened, and they are thicker and darker than your natural lashes, so you tend to notice the lashes falling off, mistakenly thinking they are missing more than before.

Q7：Can eyelash extensions contact with water?

The new made eyelash extensions cannot touch water within 8-12 hours. When washing your face in the morning and evening, do not splash your face with water as usual, avoid eye cleaning, do not touch your eyelashes as far as possible when drying with a towel, and do not touch water.

The eyelash extensions will reduce their adhesion after they come into contact with oily makeup, so try to avoid oily makeup.

After grafting eyelashes, if the makeup removal becomes inconvenient or unskilled, it is best to use a cotton swab containing a makeup remover to help remove the eye makeup.

Q8：What should I do if the eyelash extensions fall into my eyes?

It should be rinsed in time with normal saline for several times. If you can't rinse it out at last, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible.

Q9：How long can my eyelash extensions last?

Everyone will ask this question before they do eyelash extensions. Simple speaking, it’ll last around 4-7 weeks.

Though tiny eyelashes will grow and fall naturally. In daily time when washing face and rube your eyes will let eyelashes fall off. And eyelashes will be weakening with time, so we will recommend customer to remove or add about 28 days after grafting.

Top 5 myths about lash extensions

 

Eyelash extension is an increasingly popular beauty technique. More and more advanced SPAS, salons, beauty centers and nail salons are providing eyelash grafting services.

But what do you really know about eyelash extensions? Our Lash will talk about this.

Understanding the relevant knowledge of eyelash grafting, you can see the misunderstanding; have the ideal eyelash grafting experience.

Myth 1: Can eyelash extensions maintain 3 months above?

- NO!

If any eyelash technician tells you that your eyelashes will last longer than three months, take heed.

Any claim that eyelash extensions can last an extra-long time or even permanently is not credible.

Normally, how long the eyelash will last depends, 30% on the artist's technique, 30% on the quality of the lashes and glue used, and 40% on the individual's after care.

Under normal circumstances, the state of eyelash after grafting is maintained for about 28 days.

Myth 2: Why only a month or so?

Because every hair in the human body has a growth cycle, eyelashes will fall off and renew with the growth period, degradation period, rest period and then, so the grafted eyelashes will fall off with the renewal of their own eyelashes.

But it doesn't matter, because our own eyelash renewal is regular, will not appear the situation of hair removal at the same time, so about 1 month you need to go back to the salon for a supplement can continue to keep beautiful.

Proper personal maintenance, such as not using eye makeup (in fact, the grafted lashes already have a good eye makeup effect), applying professional eyelash growing solution, not rubbing your lashes, and brushing your lashes regularly, can also make your eyelashes last longer.

Myth 3:Eyelash extensions don't need professional training ?

--NO!

Eyelash extension is a highly technical beauty technique in which individual eyelashes are bonded to the user's own eyelashes.

Each eyelash needs to be accurately grafted about 0.5mm-1mm away from the root of its own eyelash. This process requires very skilled and professional technology.

Many women who have done eyelash extensions must have deep experience, not professional, not standard grafting techniques, will make you feel very uncomfortable in the process of grafting.

And if the lash technician's grafting technique is not standard, the lashes after grafting will not last long.

Myth 4: The use of mink hair and other products on the market are qualified animal hair?

--NO!

Many businesses use mink hair and other beauty products are unqualified animal hair.

Beauty eyelash products made of animal hair must go through very strict hygiene and safety disinfection treatment, all related products are tested by international safety standards, so in addition to the use of other eyelashes more comfortable, but also more safe and healthy.

Be careful if you come across cheap, unbranded, or cluttered eyelashes. These products may have been designed to cut costs without strict treatment, so don't try them.

Myth 5: The eyelash extensions all feel the same, correct?

--NO!

Compared with the one-time paste of false eyelashes, the characteristic of eyelash extension is that each eyelash is professionally grafted by lash technician.

 

 

Eyelashes have many styles, many radians, many thicknesses, many lengths, many colors and up to dozens of matching options for customers to choose from, fully meet the individual requirements of different customers.

So the effect of eyelash extension is not uniform, but according to the characteristics of each customer tailored design.

After grafting, you can have flashing, beautiful, individual beauty eyelashes effect for 24 hours!

One-time false eyelashes are not as flexible as eyelash extensions, and the fall off “caterpillar” awkward won’t exist again.

A complete procedure for eyelash extensions

 

Today Our Lash would like to share with you the complete operation steps of doing eyelash extensions. I hope it’ll be a little helpful to new eyelash technicians or the girls who’re going to do lash extensions but want to know more about eyelash extensions in advance.

Step 1: Get ready for disinfection and tools.

The first thing we should do is disinfect, after the customer lies down, put the towel on the customer's forehead to cover the customer's eyebrows to prevent contact with customers' skin.

Before operation, we should first use disinfectant to sterilize our own hands, and then the tools will be used in the following process.

During the infection lash technician can talk with customers, which can increase the relationship between each other as well as showing the customers the lash technician’s own aesthetics, impress & relax the customer, the following works will be easier to go on.

Step 2: Clean the eyelash extensions and take care of them.

Clean and remove the dirt on the false eyelashes to ensure that the eyelashes are clean, so as not to affect the adhesion of the glue of the subsequent grafting eyelashes.

Clean each real eyelash carefully, then cut the tapes according to the shape of eyes and stick it under the eye (mainly to prevent glue sticking to the skin).

Step 3: Segregation upper and lower eyelash

Cut a suitable size of isolation film (medical tape, eye mask, eye sticker) and separate the upper and lower lashes. This can avoid mixing the upper and lower lashes (Mixing will cause the glue of the grafted lashes to stick to the lashes without grafting or eyelids)

Step 4: Straighten out customer’s real eyelash

Use an eyelash comb or tweezers to straighten out lashes one by one so that false lashes can be glued to customer’s lashes one by one.

Step 5: Prepare lash extensions for the customer

According to the length of the customer's eyelashes, choose suitable lashes of different lengths you’ll use for your design and combine all length lines on the lash pallet. False eyelashes are glued on the original eyelashes one (one piece or one fan) by one, and can match different lengths according to the radian and length of their eyelashes.

Step 6: Start grafting eyelashes

Eyelash attachment can cause a little nervous because the pointed tweezers work on the eyelids, but if the customer's eyelids are tight, it can cause problems for the grafted eyelashes, so try to relax the customer and then graft one by one:

1. Shake the glue to shake up the minerals;

2. Squeeze appropriate amount of glue on the glue tray, take less glue each time, but take glue frequently.

3. Grab the end of the eyelash with tweezers, dip about 2/3 of the root into the glue, and then gently pull it out.

4. The eyelash that stuck glue sticks to the flank of true eyelash, stick about 0.5mm--1mm from the root, cannot exceed 1.5mm.

5 .Each false eyelash is grafted onto a real one.

6. At least two thirds of the length of your eyelashes is adhered to the false eyelashes, and the curve of the grafted eyelashes should be consistent.

7. Keep the grafted lashes away from the next lashes to avoid sticking to each other.

Step 7: Check the finished lash designs

After grafting, clean it again with an eyelash brush to detect whether the adhesion is firm. If there is shedding or grafting is not satisfactory, it needs to be repaired and trimmed.

Step 8: Dry eyelashes

Use an eyelash fan blowing eyelash for 5-10 minutes until it is not dazzling after opening an eye.

However, it takes about half an hour for the glue to dry out. During this time, sensitive customers may shed tears. Lash technicians should explain to customers that it’s normal occasions and rest for a while until the glues dry out she will feel better.

Step 9: Clean eyelids

Remove the cling film from the lower eyelid and wipe the lower eyelid with a paper towel or dry cotton swab.

This is just the general process, in practice there’re more details should be pay attention to, and only with a lot of practices can a lash technician become qualified and professional.

How to answer lash extension questions

 

A lot of eyelash technicians have encounter customers ask all kinds of questions, how should you answer to let them rest assured and at ease with their eyelash extensions?

Today, Our Lash will pick a few frequently asked questions to teach you to answer!

1. Does it pain to do eyelash extensions?

Answer: the process of grafting eyelash won't have painful feeling commonly. Grafting eyelashes is just to stick the false eyelashes one by one to your natural eyelashes, will not contact eyelids or eyes; very few people will feel slight itching when their eyes are not closed well or eyes are more sensitive, but not the feeling of pain.

2. Will it hurt the real eyelashes?

A true eyelash can only receive one false eyelash, no "overweight”, no problem.

The most important principle for eyelash extensions is: a true eyelash receives a false eyelash only. “A false eyelash” means one piece of individual lash extensions or one cluster of volume fans.

When applying, we cannot stick false eyelashes to real eyelash root directly, we’ll stay the distance of about 0.5mm to make sure it won't stimulate hair bursa, cause sensitive or hinder eyelash growth.

3. How long can my lash extensions last?

The answer is 6-8 weeks and tt has to be refilled every month or so.

False eyelash is stick to real eyelashes, so it will fall off together with real lashes in about two months as per the real lashes’ growth cycle, 3-4 pieces falling every day is normal, normally after a month half of the lashes will fall off, it’s better to do a refill at this time to keep the best status of your eyelash extensions.

 

4. The more you grafted the better?

According to the amount of native eyelash, about 120~140 pieces is best for an eyelash finish.

Most of us are born with around 120-140 pieces of eyelashes(double eyes), because one true eyelash can only receive one false eyelash, so we control the total amount of false eyelashes within this limits, the effect of the finished eyelashes are the best. If the number exceeded, it’s easy to bring about original eyelash fracture, the gain outweighs the loss.

5. If after a few days, I feel my grafting eyelashes are not good, how to do?

You can come back to our shop, we’ll use special remover to discharge your false eyelashes, and then besmear some maintains to promote the growth of your own eyelashes.

 

6. What should I do if my eyelash extensions are messed up?

Just comb it open with an eyelash brush.

When wake up, through all night roll the eyelash extensions can become particularly messy, just use an eyelash brush to comb it several times can make eyelash restore original neat.

It's important to keep it light so you don't brush your lashes off.

 

In addition to answering customers' questions, in fact, many eyelash technicians will also encounter a lot of problems, if not solved, the works for customers will not look good, and customers will not be satisfied.

If you want to become a professional eyelash technician, you should have professional knowledge as well as exquisite skills. If your skills are not good, then be sure to practice well from the basics.
