Hi there,
I was hoping some fellow eyelash techs could please help me before I give up and pack it in.
I trained in 2010 with eyelash extensions, went away and came back to it. I've been doing it for a few months now and I'm still struggling to get to grips with it.
At the beginning I wasn't applying enough glue now I've been told I'm applying too much- personally I don't think this is the case as you can't see it and I've seen clumpy glue on other people's work so I know what to look for.
I keep gluing the Eyelashes together and I'm using tape plus pads over the top. I am even gluing some of the lashes to the pad even though I comb through every single one. I haven't tried taping the lid by the brow up yet as I've heard this can help. But I'm just wondering did anyone else struggle this much and continue making the same mistakes? Should I accept I'm know good at it and walk away.
I had a client today who sent me an email after her treatment saying they were uneven and over glued. I didn't take a picture. I thought they looked fine but I did mess up the treatment as I glued a few lashes together and did pull apart her lid. She is a beauty therapist and I think this peed her off- which is understandable.
I'm quite upset as I'm feeling very deflated right about now. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
