Hello all,
I trained in Hollywood eyelash extensions 2 yrs ago. For the first year I didn't really do much as I found it too hard but have got more into it in the last year and now feel more confident by the day, and really enjoyable too. I now feel it is time to experiment a bit more with the different looks with the sizes, shape, thickness etc...........
I started off using 8, 10, 12 in the natural thickness and distribute them as 8 nearer the inner eye for the first few, 10 for most of it and 12 on the outer edge. I pretty much stayed with this routine for quite a while. Oh and they were C shape.
I have recently started to experiment a little more and brought some 0.2 in 8, 10, 12, pretty much sticking to the same routine.
A couple of weeks ago I brought the mink lashes on the strip and am finding these so much easier and quicker to pick up as I always struggle a little picking them up off the sponge ( any tips would be appreciated for easier pick up). I brought these in 0.2 in 9, 11, 13. I have done a few sets now and changed the application a little to 9 in the inner corners, 11, probably to the middle and 13 covering the rest. The lashes looked really good after and my clients were really pleased.
The only thing I am struggling with now is the lashes sticking together as I don't think the glue is drying too quick ( I am going to look into fast drying glue), or could there be another reason for this??
Am really sorry for the long message but I would be interested in finding out how everyone else distributes their lashes and which is the most popular. Also how does anyone get on with the Y lashes and different types of lash.
Thanks for your time x
