Materials
Modern salons use artificial hypoallergenic materials for eyelash extensions. They are divided according to the diameter of the hairs into silk, mink, sable. Eyelashes with a diameter of 0.1 mm are called silk. They look like natural makeup. The hairs are light, soft, not thick, so they do not harm. Sable eyelash extensions have a diameter of 0.2-0.25 mm. They are thick, shiny and look very bright. Although such hairs are not durable, original images are created with their help. Mink eyelashes are close to natural in their structure and thickness. They give the appearance of natural makeup.
You should also pay attention to eyelash extension glue. It also comes in several varieties. A lighter color will help mask adhesions. A dark tool will create an eyeliner effect.
Color of eyelash extensions
The standard classic color for eyelash extensions is black. Sometimes, to create a more natural effect, hairs with a brown tint are used. They are great for blonde girls. However, if you want to stand out in the crowd and create an original, unusual image, you can use coloredeyelash extensions - red, blue, yellow, green, etc.
Length of hairs
Usually, eyelash extensions use a combination of hairs of different lengths, which allows you to make the effect more natural. The procedure uses cilia with a length of 4 to 18 millimeters. The most commonly used hairs are 12, 10, 8 millimeters. The choice of length depends, first of all, on the wishes of the client and the reason for building. For example, medium sizes are used for everyday life, but for a festive event, you can experiment by making your image more original.
The length of the eyelashes should also be selected depending on the shape of the face. The larger the features, the larger the hairs can be used. If the face is thin, elongated, it is worth choosing shorter eyelashes for extension. How to choose the length of the hairs, so as not to give yourself a vulgar look and not damage your own cilia due to an increase in the load? The best way to find the right size is to measure your lashes and add 2-4mm to them.
