lash extensions

I’ve been a lash tech for a short amount of time now, only about a month. I do a fair amount of clients and use a mixture of different glues between the KG salon glue and the sensitive sally’s glue, not quite sure of the exact name. I’m just finding that a lot of my clients lashes are not...

would surgical spirit work to disinfect tweezers in-between eyelash extension appointments? (wasn't sure what thread to post this under)

I’ve been using the KG salon glue but it’s just a bit expensive to keep rebuying as you don’t get much for your money. I’m looking to branch out and find something cheaper but I’ll stick to KG if needs be. Has anyone got any recommendations?

Hi there, I’m new to this but hoping maybe it will help me feel a bit better about things I recently trained to be a lash tech with KG salon, probably about three or four weeks ago and I’ve been doing clients ever since using the KG glue and have had no complaints so far Today I did a brand...

Hi, I recently trained in classic lash extensions and am starting to get everything together and I’m looking to order new lashes but thought of trying a different brand. So far I’ve only used lashbase lashes as that’s what I trained with. What are everyone’s favourites? What would you recomend? ☺️

Hi I’m currently training lash extensions and individuals. I have my eye pads and my tape etc but every time I do the right eye when the client opens there eye it’s almost glued tight and I panic lol! When opening the right eye everything is fine it’s just the end of the lash xx Please any help !!

I went to get my russian volume lash extensions infilled today and I was told that next time I should book a new set. The lash tech said they recommend booking a new set after 2 infills as lashes will begin to look uneven/ not like they were applied at the same time after a second infill. I...

Hey, I have decent retention on the lashes I do but I'm looking for ways to make them last even longer. I do use a nanomister but I am interested to know if the product called 'Superbonder' works? Thank you!

I have just completed my course in individual eyelash extensions and now looking to add to my kit but I don’t know where to start! Can anyone guide me as to what I need to buy in terms of lashes? Which curl, diameter lashes I should invest in..... I will stick to mixed trays as works out cheaper...

This one of my first ever sets of lashes. I'm really struggling and most of the time feel like throwing in the towel! I find it really stressful and my model actually had a tremor so it was very hard to focus on isolation and glue control as she was shaking uncontrollably and kept opening her...

Hi all, I have recently set up a home salon for eyelash extensions as I recently completed the qualification and after some practice will be looking for clients. I was wondering if after every client you change the throws/blankets/covers on your beauty bed for the next client? As I am not...

Hi all, my mum had her patch test on Friday and I’m doing her lashes this evening. She doesn’t wear makeup and has basic skincare routine, I’ve found that all the products she’s using are oil free and suitable. The one thing she uses that although they are oil free, are Simple Cleansing Facial...

So I did my lash extension course yesterday, and had my sister patch tested last week ready for today! I did my first set! Well, most of my first set! Started quite late and after an hour and a half we both started getting tired so she’ll be round tomorrow to finish off! They are nowhere near...

Hi everyone. I’m after some advice on lash cleansing routines when a client comes in. My training was years ago and I’d like to take a refresher course but want to get some practice in beforehand. I wasn’t even taught to clean the lashes. The course was awful. So I’ve taught myself about...

Hello! I just filled my clients lashes yesterday. I used ebl Grand Rapids lash glue and I had a 30% humidity which from the website said it was an ideal humidity level. She sent me a message saying a whole bunch fell out . I just opened the bottle with her set ! She did get her brows done...

Hi, not sure if this is in the correct place, but I’m new here! Having managed a pub for the last 2 years, I left earlier in the year due to stress, long unsociable hours, and a mental break down at 23! I’ve decided I would like to train in eyelash extensions and realise this takes a lot of time...

Hi everyone, I completed my lash training a few days ago and did my first set of extensions today, I am not massively proud of them I really struggle with isolation I literally couldn't isolate any more lashes...

For someone who’s just starting out doing lashes and only the classic sets. I’m currently having trouble with the lashes staying on and I brush them after doing like 10-15 lashes and like 5 or more usually come off. Ive asked lash artists else where but I got a bunch of mixed reviews so I...

Hey everyone! I'm stuck in a bit of a slump and was hoping someone could help. I've newly qualified as a lash tech and I am excited and ready to start, I have done a few treatments on friends and family but I don't really know where to start off in terms of making it a business. I can't do it...

I was wondering if anyone could shed light please. I did my boss’s lash extensions yesterday and they were watering but no problems. Today I’ve gone into work and it’s all red bottom of eyeball and bloodshot. There’s no lashes, no glue there so wondering what it is ? She’s tried flushing...
