All about eyelash lifting

The expressiveness of the eyes largely depends on the condition of the eyelashes. For girls who are unhappy with what nature has given them, the beauty industry offers to increase the length and volume of eyelashes. Currently, keratin lifting is very popular, which is considered a worthy alternative to extension.

Eyelash keratin lifting is a cosmetic procedure that aims to improve their length, density, bend and shade. Due to the filling of the structure of the hairs with a special composition based on keratin, they are compacted. By feeding and thickening, they become healthier.

Lifting is a completely painless procedure, after which the girl does not need to perform special hair care measures. Long, dark and thick eyelashes after lifting do not require correction. This multi-step process keeps them natural so they don't look artificial.

The keratin lifting procedure is able to give color saturation and beautiful curvature to the eyelashes for up to 3 months. In addition, the benefits of this service include the following.

1. Security. As a result of lifting, there is no deterioration in the condition of native hairs, but on the contrary, they become more beautiful and healthier.
2. No soreness... During the process, the client does not experience any unpleasant sensations, so there is no need for anesthesia.There are cases when girls experienced some discomfort, a slight burning sensation or tearing. However, the above points are an exception.
3. Short duration of execution. Typically, the lifting lasts about 1.5 hours. The effect can be noticed immediately after the completion of the procedure, and it persists until the hairs are completely renewed.
4. No need for correction. Girls who have done themselves a keratin lifting of eyelashes do not need to visit the salon again and spend money on correction.
5. Minimal contraindications and side effects... Even permanent makeup can be applied after lifting.

An affordable and painless lifting has the following disadvantages:

• a slight effect can be observed on one's own short cilia;
• sticking of hairs - immediately after the lifting, the eyelashes look like rays, but only during the first day;
• color change of only the upper row of hairs;
• the formation of creases as the eyelashes grow back.

Women who want to do a keratin lifting for themselves should be aware of the contraindications for carrying it out:

• recent operations on the organs of vision and eyelids;
• pregnancy;
• intolerance to any of the components of the keratin composition;
• recent eye diseases, for example, barley, conjunctivitis.

Lifting is an alternative to eyelash lamination, therefore, there are no significant differences between the procedures. During lamination, the hairs are saturated with useful components, minerals, as a result of which they become long, thick and beautiful.

In order to do the lifting of the cilia, the master will need to prepare a special set of tools and formulations, the use of which is carried out in 3 stages.

Necessary drugs.

1. A means for cleansing and degreasing, the action of which is aimed at opening the cuticular scales of the hairs. The use of this substance promotes the penetration of nutrient mixtures into them.
2. An agent that can affect the disulfide binders in the inner part of the cilia. These substances are necessary for fixing the bend, as well as increasing the volume of the hairs.
3. A nourishing compound that closes and nourishes hair scales.

In addition, to perform a keratin lifting, you will need the following tools:

• curling form;
• adhesive base;
• hair dividing brushes;
• eye protection tape that prevents cosmetics from entering the eyes;
• paint, oxidant, developer, brush and jar.

The purchase of these materials should be carried out in a specialized store or on a website that sells goods for the beauty industry. There are also ready-made kits on sale that contain all the materials needed for lamination. The most high-quality and demanded specialists include the products of the following brands:

• LVL Lashes;
• Novel Lash up;
• Yumi Lashes;
• Luxe Lashes.

After the client has come to her master, it is worth discuss and agree on the desired effect of the procedure. It is worth deciding what will be the bend, the shade of the hair coloring. After that, the beauty industry worker should remove the remnants of makeup from the client's face. For this purpose, you can use a special milk. Next, the girl is laid in a comfortable position and using a brush, a degreasing compound is applied to the surface of the cilia.

Step-by-step technology for performing keratin lifting.

1. A product is applied that opens the cuticles at each of the eyelashes.
2. Curlers are attached to the eyelids, which help curl the eyelashes.
3. The hairs are combed onto a silicone mold using a special brush. As a result, they acquire the desired bend, which must be fixed with a special tool.
4. Hair coloring is in progress.
5. A keratin-based composition is applied, which helps to fix the staining, and also closes the cuticular hair layer.
6. The cilia are covered with a special composition based on nourishing oil.

After the lifting has been carried out, eyelashes cannot be wetted throughout the day... Otherwise, the composition applied to the hairs can simply wash off. After 24 hours, the girl can return to her usual lifestyle.

Unfortunately, prolongation of the result after the keratin lifting procedure is impossible... How long beauty will last in front of a woman is a purely individual indicator. Usually, the average duration of the lifting effect is 3 months, namely until the hairs on the eyelids are completely renewed. You can use this service 2-3 times a year.

Performing keratin eyelash lifting should only be performed by a qualified specialistwho has passed the appropriate training courses. Theoretically, the procedure is possible at home in front of a mirror, but experts do not advise doing this.

Despite the simplicity of the procedure, this work requires certain skills... Even if you buy a kit with everything you need, you can get an undesirable effect from self-lifting. It is quite difficult to control the application of funds, because some of them can get on the mucous membrane.

The effect of the procedure is visible to the naked eye. After keratin lifting, the cilia increase in length and appear thicker. After this service, the fair sex shows the presence of the "open eyes" effect, which makes facial features expressive and attractive.

After examining the reviews about keratin lamination of eyelashes, you can draw conclusions about its need. According to the majority of women who have used this service, the result depends on the qualifications of the master, therefore, its choice should be approached as responsibly as possible.

The information in the reviews is different: some girls liked the lamination, since the effect lasted for 3 months, other women were not impressed by it, since they did not observe any effect after it was carried out.

In some cases, the cilia did not increase in length and volume, but they became healthier. Also the result of lifting largely depends on the condition of the native cilia, their length and density.

From all of the above, we can conclude that the effect of lifting is purely individual.
