Hi
Advice much needed please!
I've trained in eyelash extensions, not the best course at all, so I've invested more money and I'm taking another with a different company.
I just can't and won't see myself as qualified until I've taken better training.
In the meantime, I'm using a mannequin and trainer lashes to practice isolation, placement, and correct way to hold tweezers.
I'm doing okay with everything apart from one area, which is pretty major, as I can't let this happen on a model / client, when I'm ready to do those.
I can't seem to stop the lashes sticking to the tape / pad.
I've tried less adhesive, I'm really careful with placement, I've tried holding the lashes up slightly with tweezers whilst the glue dries, but no matter what I do, I get quite a lot sticking to the tape / pads.
I'm using a slow setting glue whilst practising, I'm wondering if this is the cause?
I know mannequins and training lashes are not the best, and I'm only using it to practice until I've done another course and feel better about working on people!
But surely I should be able to do this without sticking the lashes to the pad or tape every time I practice.
Any advice much appreciated xx
