How to comb eyelash extensions correctly?

Eyelash extensions look very beautiful and impressive. This procedure can radically change the look, make it more penetrating and deep. However, if you do not take care of such eyelashes, then very soon they will acquire an unsightly appearance. There are several stages of cilia care, but the main one is still combing.

Any girl who decides to build up should remember that even the highest quality eyelashes can react negatively to unstable weather conditions: extreme heat, wind, heavy rain, snowfall. All this spoils the eyelashes, and at the same time the mood.

Brushing daily has several beneficial benefits:

• hairs do not stick together, do not get tangled or break;
• a beautiful bend line is created;
• hairs that have fallen out are combed out, which can get into the eye and cause irritation and pain;
• hair follicles are stimulated, so natural eyelashes grow faster and tolerate correction more easily.

The lifespan of artificial hairs is 2 to 4 weeks. Unfortunately, sometimes they can fall out even with scrupulous care and following all the rules. The reasons for this are often too oily skin, hormonal imbalance, chronic diseases.

Experts recommend combing eyelash extensions daily, this is the only way to avoid tangling and sticking.

Let's consider the basic recommendations for combing:

• take a brush;
• cover your eye and place your finger under the upper eyelid, so that the eyelashes lie on top of it;
• brush from the base of the cilia and their ends;
• Open your eyes and comb the other side of the hairs, making the movement similar to dyeing the lashes with mascara.

Important! Many ladies try to peel off stuck eyelashes with a needle, pin, or toothpick. It is strongly discouraged to do this, since you can not only ruin your eyelashes, but also get into the eye if you move your hand carelessly.

Very often, girls ask themselves a question - is it possible to comb the eyelashes immediately after a shower or washing. The answer is yes, but not wet. In the morning, you need to wash your face carefully, as your eyelashes can stick together a little overnight. Do not rub your eyes with your hands, just rinse the hairs with water. After that, you need to wait for natural drying and only then comb the hairs. The same applies to eyes wet with tears.

For combing eyelashes at home, lashmakers offer girls several types of tools.

Such a brush is also called microbrush. It is very easy to use and fits easily into a bag or cosmetic bag. With the help of a microbrush, you can quickly and efficiently separate the hairs and give expressiveness to the look. Brushes are different. They are produced in various forms, and the material from which they are made is also different.

But you should not use an ordinary brush from dried mascara, although it can be considered as an option at one time.

Combing brushes can also be made from different materials. The most popular is silicone, but there are other options, like plastic. You should choose brushes where the bristles "look" in different directions, this is the most convenient solution. Such brushes effectively get rid of dust, keratinized dermis particles and worn-out hairs.

Combs are made from two types of material: metal and plastic. Metal ones are stronger and more reliable, however, their teeth are quite sharp. During the combing procedure, you need to be careful not to injure the eyelid. Plastic models have thickened teeth, it is not always convenient to comb the eyelashes with them.

Brushes and combs have different shapes. Hamost of all girls choose classic familiar models, but lately they are gaining in popularity spiral, flat and curved options. Experts recommend starting with curved ones because they are the most effective way to comb your hairs.

• Start your day by washing your face followed by drying the eyelashes and combing them. This is a prerequisite for long wear.
• If you do decide to tint your eyelashes, it is important to choose the right mascara. It must be hypoallergenic and of high quality. Immediately after the cilia are painted, they must be combed, otherwise the mascara will stick together.
• It is necessary to remove eye makeup with special formulations. They should be free of oil and harmful chemicals, since oil has a detrimental effect on the glue. In addition, it is important to exclude heavy, fat-based creams. Foam is the best option. After washing off the makeup, wait for the hairs to dry, and comb them.
• Washing should be as gentle as bathing in the shower. Yes, it is very pleasant to send a warm stream to your face, but with extended eyelashes you will have to forget about it. Only light rinsing with warm water is allowed. You should also dab your face carefully.
• Do not use eye care products while wearing eyelashes. No need to apply masks, smear cream on the eyelids, and the like. All this will significantly shorten the life of the cilia.
• Separately, it should be said about decorative cosmetics for the eyes. Of course, foundation and eyeshadow are a must for your daily makeup. But it is important to choose and use them correctly. The eyeshadow should not be creamy, it is better to choose a crumbly one. Do not apply foundation on the eyelids. For mascara, ditch the waterproof options right away.
• It is very important to take proper care of your instruments. After each brushing, wash with a mild soapy solution, dry and store. It is best to store in a special case if you are used to carrying the instrument with you.
• A prerequisite for the durability of eyelashes is proper sleep. Many girls like to sleep on their stomachs, burying their faces in a pillow. Alas, now this is unacceptable. Experts advise sleeping on your side, or even better, on your back. Then the eyelashes will not hesitate overnight, and it will be easier to wash and comb them.

Extended eyelashes can change the bow of any woman for the better. But they will look gorgeous only on condition of constant and regular care.Do not forget about proper sleep, daily combing and minimal use of decorative cosmetics.
