    LVL hasn’t worked

    I done a LVL on Friday and the lashes didn’t curl- I done what I would normally do, left it ok for the correct time etc. I’m thinking I used the wrong silicone roller size- I used the small ones. If her lashes weren’t that short then could this of been the reason her Lashes didn’t curl? The...

    Shellac in the sun
