Features of silk eyelash extension
An expressive look is considered the main component of a woman's image. Unfortunately, not all ladies have naturally lush and beautiful eyelashes. To remedy the situation, in this case you just need to build up silk eyelashes... This procedure is very popular among all the fair sex, as it provides an amazing effect and frees you from the need to create daily makeup.
What it is?
Silk eyelash extension is a cosmetic lengthening of the hairs that gives them extra volume. Artificial eyelashes are thin and light, so they are ideal for girls with any type of natural eyelashes. Unlike standard extensions, silk is characterized by a long-lasting effect and high quality.
The main advantage of this procedure is that the materials used for extension do not cause painful sensations and irritation of the eyelid skin in girls.
The basis of silk hairs consists of fine micropolyester threads, they are similar in structure to natural material, have elasticity, flexibility and are resistant to damage, creases.
As for the color of such eyelashes, it can be different, fashionistas mostly prefer classic black, since with it you can create various images.
It is possible to carry out extensions of silk eyelashes only in beauty salons, since this cosmetic procedure requires certain knowledge.
On average, it takes up to 3 hours, it all depends on the skill of the specialist. Artificial eyelashes can be tinted with black mascara, but this is not necessary, since after extension, a neat contour is already created, which favorably emphasizes the expressiveness of the eyes. The disadvantages of this procedure include high susceptibility of hairs to external factors (they are afraid of unnecessary touching, applying cosmetics, getting water) and difficult care.
How to do it?
Silk eyelashes can be extended as bundlesand by cilia. Each of these techniques is distinguished by the complexity of the implementation, the effect and the duration of the procedure. With eyelash extensions, each artificial hair is individually attached to the "native" hair using a special resin.
Bundle extension involves the use of hairs collected in a bundle, which can significantly reduce the time required. The only thing is that this technique is less popular, since it does not guarantee long-term wearing - when the bundles fall out, large gaps remain between the hairs.
The process of creating silk eyelashes takes about 2 hours on average and looks like this.
- First, the salon master and the client select the hairs that are suitable in color, length and bend, after which they are laid out on the table in the desired sequence. Then the client needs to thoroughly cleanse his face from makeup, paying special attention to the eyelids (they are lubricated with a degreasing compound). The preparatory stage ends with the disinfection of working tools, this must be done to exclude the introduction of infection.
- Next, the lower eyelid is carefully sealed with a patch or protective tape, the client closes his eyes, the extension procedure itself begins. A little glue is squeezed onto the cosmetology tablet, a silk eyelash is taken with one tweezers, its tip is dipped in an adhesive composition, and a natural eyelash is pushed aside with the second tweezers. The hairs must be connected together in such a way that the silk cilium is at a distance of 1 mm from the edge of the eyelid. Natural and artificial hairs are compressed with tweezers for a few seconds, after which you can repeat the procedure with other cilia. When the extension on one eye is completed, proceed to the other.
- The procedure ends with the processing of silk with a special fixing agent, if necessary, the remnants of glue are removed from the cilia and eyelids.
After 3-4 weeks, the cilia will need correction, which will take no more than 30 minutes.
It should be noted that the eyelashes extended by the beam method will require correction much earlier. It is recommended to perform it immediately after 1-2 bundles fall out.
How to care?
To preserve the beautiful appearance of your silk eyelash extensions and make them wear longer, it is important to follow certain rules for caring for them... So, the first days after the extension procedure you cannot touch the hairs with your hands and wash yourself with water... It is also prohibited rub your eyes with your hands, in the following days, you can wash your face, but you need to do this carefully, since the glue must completely set.
