Who is 1D eyelash extension suitable for and how to do it?

Eyelash extension today is a safe and affordable procedure for many ladies to create a luxurious and attractive look.... This service is used not only by women who naturally have thin and small eyelashes, but also by those who want to make the bend of their own eyelashes more expressive, and the hairs themselves are voluminous and thick.

The right choice in favor of this or that build-up effect will surely bear fruit. 1D procedure is relevant for many women and in many cases... Let's take a closer look at this topic.

Today eyelash extension is already a classic of the genre, which will be abandoned only by a lazy girl who does not want to go to the salon. With the help of the modern beauty industry, every girl can correct what she does not like, or what she would like to improve, with a minimum of effort. Extended eyelashes have a lot of advantages. In addition to the fact that they make the eyes wide open and more expressive, they save every woman at least 10-15 minutes in the morning for dyeing eyelashes.

This option is especially relevant for those ladies who love the natural effect when building up, as if he did not exist, and the eyelashes, only slightly dyed with mascara. With this variety, you can emphasize the natural beauty of the eyes, while giving the eyelashes density and missing length.

Usually, 1D technique is relevant for everyday life, and if you want something brighter, then experts recommend other techniques: 2D and 3D. When performing the 1D technique, lashmakers, as a rule, use hairs from 6 to 12 mm long and no more than 0.12 mm thick. Using this technique, you can gracefully emphasize the eyes without excessive vulgarity.

Procedure 1D is eyelash extension technique, when one artificial is glued to one natural... As for the shades of artificial hairs, their lengths and bends, all this is selected separately and individually for certain eyes of the client. The same goes for the desired effect and volume.

Today beauty salons offer a variety of eyelash extension formats, as there is no one-size-fits-all. Each woman is unique, with her own eye shape, their cut and their own preferences. Let's take a look at the most relevant build-up effects.

• Natural. This effect is achieved by the fact that the master uses artificial hairs of several sizes, while reproducing the natural growth line of the eyelashes, giving them definition and density, and also, if necessary, adding length, especially in the corners of the eyes.

• Puppet... Extension of this format is done using hairs up to 12 millimeters. This effect is relevant for the fair sex who want to become the owners of a flirty look.

• Fox or feline... Usually, when creating such an effect, the master uses hairs of different lengths at the same time. The short ones are closer to the inner edge of the eye, and the longer ones are closer to the outer corner. This effect assumes, as it were, a smooth and gradual lengthening of the eyelashes to the outer corners of the eyes. With this technique, the eyes can be visually made more elongated, while transforming the look.

• Squirrel. Short hairs are extended in the inner and outer corners of the eyes, and longer cilia are placed in the center. The look with such a build-up turns out to be bright and expressive. The point of extension is to make the eyes wider.

• Sparse effect, also referred to as "beams"... The extension is done in such a way that the cilia are as separate as possible, and the effect is as natural as possible; with this extension, volumetric beams are not used.

When choosing an extension effect, it is recommended to take into account the shape of not only the eyes, but also the face.

• Small eyes hairs of medium length and not the darkest color are best emphasized, strong bends are not recommended for them either. Long voluminous beams that "drown" them look very ugly on small eyes. It is optimal to use classic 1D extensions.
• Bulging eyes experts recommend trying to visually lengthen, the fox effect is especially advantageous for such eyes, while the puppet effect may not play into the hands, but give the opposite effect.
• Almond eyes almost any build-up effect will do, but the natural one looks the best.

For ladies who have an elongated and thin face, the effects that lengthen the eyes (that is, fox and feline) are undesirable, it is best to choose either a doll or volumetric extension instead of the classic 1D. A puppet effect or a squirrel is perfect for chubby women. The oval face is best emphasized with a natural effect, but you can also look at the fox.

The curls of the eyelashes are marked with appropriate letters, depending on their curl.

• A. The curve under this letter is very natural.
• B. Longer than the previous one, the curl is natural.
• C. Considered one of the most relevant for imparting an impressive look.
• D.A sufficiently noticeable bend, which gives a pronounced effect.
• L. Straight hairs with noticeable curl at the end.

With 1 D extensions, hairs of classic black color are most often used, and sometimes also brown. But the use of colored hairs is also possible.

Many clients mistakenly believe that if they are growing a sable or mink, then these are natural fibers. This is not the case, regardless of the name, eyelashes are not extended from materials of animal origin, as allergies are possible to them.

• Sable. Synthetic fibers of this type can be quite thick, they are most actively used in cases where eyelashes are needed only for a few days.
• Mink. The thinnest hairs are ideal for everyday life, as they are hardly felt in the eyes. Suitable for ladies with weak and short eyelashes.
• Silk. Silk hairs are available in a wide range of shades, perfect for daily use.
• Silicone... Very elastic hairs made of synthetic fibers keep their shape perfectly for several weeks, do not break or wrinkle, naturally shine.

Before starting the procedure the master necessarily makes a visual assessment in order to make the selection of the material, the required bend and effect.

A high-quality and professional procedure for building up should be carried out only by a specialist who specializes in this. Extension is not carried out independently at home, but only ready-made artificial eyelashes are glued for several hours.

To understand the essence of building up in the salon, we will consider it in stages.

• To begin with, a specialist degreases the eyelids with a special tool. It is recommended to come to the salon without makeup, as it will take time to remove it, and the remnants of makeup on your eyes can interfere with the procedure.
• Then the artist uses strips (pads) under the eyes that resemble patches. They make the extension procedure more comfortable by separating the upper and lower lashes.
• After the preparatory stages, the master begins to directly carry out the extension, gluing the hairs selected in advance. Work goes from the outer corners of the eyes to the inner ones. For gluing, specialists apply a special composition of hypoallergenic resin glue, which is completely safe for the eyelids and mucous membranes of the eyes.
• At the last stage, the lashmaker removes the stripes... Removing them does not cause any discomfort. And also checks the cilia for adhesion. Many masters do not apply a special fixer to the eyelashes, although it is necessary. The special protective film that it gives lasts up to 5 days and is very useful.

1D extended eyelashes look perfect in the first 1.5 weeks, then they naturally begin to fall out with natural ones. Hair can begin to fall out even earlier if you constantly visit the pool or sauna, and they also "climb" from frequent mechanical effects on the eyes and strong friction when cleaning makeup.

Usually, the correction is carried out 2.5-3 weeks after the extension. You should refuse to build up if, for some unknown reason, you feel discomfort or have any chronic eye diseases. In this case, you should first consult an ophthalmologist.

Lash care after 1D extension is minimal. After the procedure, it is recommended not to contact with water for 24 hours, and also not to rub your eyes with any cosmetics.

It is not recommended to independently remove eyelashes at home, it is better to entrust this issue to the master. Self-removal most often leads to damage to your own eyelashes.

After washing, the face should be blotted with a towel, not wiped off. As a daily care, you should brush your eyelashes with a special brush. For makeup remover, it is ideal to use gentle compounds, and not products based on alcohol and oils, which can dissolve the glue.

Sometimes, immediately after the extension, the eyes may turn red, do not rub and bury them unnecessarily... Such a reaction sometimes occurs on the evaporation of the glue and, as a rule, passes quickly enough. However, if the symptoms only get worse and there is an acute itching or burning sensation, it is necessary to contact the master to remove the cilia, and also ask the doctor which drug should be taken for allergies.

Summing up, we can say that if the extension is done by a professional lashmaker, then the eyelashes will transform the lady, revealing her amazing beauty... Before visiting the salon, it is very important to find out what materials and preparations the master works with, to familiarize yourself with his certificates and works.

Some experts recommend taking a break for 2-3 weeks after wearing eyelashes for 3 months. At this time, it is recommended to strengthen your eyelashes by applying oils on them.
