Lash Techniques to master

Let's delve into the intriguing world of lash techniques. The beauty of our craft lies in its versatility, where there's no one-size-fits-all approach. As an expert in the field, I'm here to shed light on the nuances of these techniques and how they can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences.

Your choice of technique may vary depending on several factors, including the client's natural lashes, whether it's an infill or a new set, and whether you're working on classic or volume lashes. Sometimes, your approach may even shift with your mood and the day you're in. The possibilities are endless, and the "name" of the technique may differ based on the lash stylist or trainer.

 

Here are some of the popular techniques that have gained recognition in the lash world:

🎯 Zones: Precision is the hallmark of working in zones, such as 8-9-10-11-10-9. This technique involves creating a lash map and ensuring even coverage across all zones, which is particularly effective for achieving a symmetrical look on both eyes.

🌈 Layers: Lashing in layers can be a game-changer. Begin with the top layer, tape it up, and then proceed to the next. This method allows you to address those hard-to-see lashes on the bottom layer. However, exercise caution in selecting the tape to avoid unintentional extension removal or damage.

👁️ Lash-by-Lash: In this meticulous approach, each lash is individually assessed and extended, regardless of its layer or position. It's a method that demands precision and dedication to perfection.

🎲 Random: For the creatively inclined lash artists, the random approach offers freedom. Lash where gaps are visible, working on different eyes, zones, and layers as you see fit. Maintain an eye for harmonious results by considering the layers and sizes used in each zone to avoid visible steps, unless it's the desired look.

⚖️ One Eye at a Time: If you prefer to focus on one eye before moving to the next, you can apply any of the techniques mentioned above. However, ensure that there's ample time to make both eyes equally full to prevent a significant disparity in lash coverage.

🦋 Tricky First: Conquering the more challenging lashes, typically the inner and outer corners, upfront can be a strategic move. Afterward, you can choose any lash technique that aligns with your workflow.

 

Remember, there's no definitive right or wrong in the lash game—only what aligns with your personal style and your clients' needs. Embrace the techniques that resonate with your approach, and never stop exploring the limitless artistry of lashes.
