Lash mapping for different eye shapes, golden ratio, and most flattering styles based on eye shapes

• Lash growth cycle explained:  Similar to the hair on your head, your lashes shed daily. Once you lose a natural lash a new one grows in its place!  The importance of eyelash anatomy & growth is to ensure proper application that won't damage natural lashes.  By extending the growth cycle you can extend the life of premature shed.  
• Isolation & lash placement techniques:
• The Golden Ratio:  The Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical ratio that appears frequently in nature, and it aligns with what is often perceived as "ideal" beauty in human faces and forms. When applied to lash extensions and beauty, the Fibonacci sequence helps achieve symmetry, balance, and natural proportions. Here's how the Fibonacci ratio (also known as the Golden Ratio, approximately 1.618) influences beauty in technical terms of the human face. 
• Design & Mapping:  Every eye shape and lash pattern is unique, and a skilled lash artist can personalize the application to enhance both your eye shape and facial features. Customization is Key: Every eye shape and lash pattern is unique, and a skilled lash artist can personalize the application to enhance both your eye shape and facial features. A lash style might need tweaks to perfectly match your lifestyle, eye shape, and desired effect.

The key to long lasting extensions:  lash porosity and importance of cleaning

• Lash porosity:  Porosity is  term is used to describe the ability of the hair to absorb and retain moisture or adhesive.  The texture of the outer layer is known as the cuticle. The Cuticula is the outer cortical lay of the hair and consists of overlapping cells the lie above the hair pulp.  The cuticle is elastic and can open and close.  Depending on how open to closed, we can classify the lash into one of three categories. 
• Cleaning & priming:  Throughout the day, our lashes accumulate dirt, oils, and makeup residue. These impurities can create a barrier between the natural lash and the extension adhesive. If not removed, they can weaken the bond, leading to premature shedding of the extensions. Proper cleaning ensures that the adhesive can bond effectively to the natural lash, providing a strong and long-lasting hold.

Reactions to Adhesive, prescription drugs and pregnant clients:

• Allergic Reaction VS Sensitive Clients:  Sensitive clients have symptoms such as a runny noise, congestion, tears, etc. lasting 24-36 hours or less.  An allergic client will have extreme/mild swelling of the eye accompanied with stingy, watery eyes, runny nose, itching, sore throat and headache symptoms.   To minimize the chance of a reaction, it is best to cure the adhesive, visit lash curing accelerants.  An allergic client will have extreme swelling accompanying with stingy watery eyes, runny nose, itching, sore throat and headache symptoms. 
• Prescription drugs and Lash Retention:  Talk to your client about what medication(s) they are taking and plan an approach to meet their expectations.  This likely means more frequent fills due to changes in body chemistry. This conversation, will help set realistic expectations and gain a long term client. 
• Pregnancy and lashes?  Yes, it is safe to get lash extensions while pregnant.  We always recommend consulting with your physician.  

 

Business Management

• Client Experience:  Salon ambiance, a comfortable lash bed, personal touch, communication and going the extra mile (loyalty programs, birthday discounts or small gifts) are hallmarks of client experiences.  You should also follow up after the appointment to ensure satisfaction.
