Encourage Silk pillow slips: because the smooth, slippery surface of the silk helps to reduce friction and tugging on the delicate lashes. This can help to prevent damage or premature shedding of the extensions, as well as reduce the risk of tangles and matting.
Unlike cotton, which can be more abrasive and may cause lashes to catch and twist during sleep, silk allows the extensions to glide smoothly over the surface of the pillowcase. This can help to prolong the life of the lashes and keep them looking fuller for longer. Additionally, silk is known for its hypoallergenic properties, which can be beneficial for those with sensitive skin or allergies.
If silk is not an option for your client, advise them to clean their pillow slips regularly.
Avoid touching or rubbing lashes:To prevent lash damage or early shedding, it’s important to advise clients against touching or rubbing their lashes or brows. If they feel the need to adjust or scratch, suggest using a clean spoolie brush or mascara wand. They can gently twirl the wand through their lashes with their fingers to separate them.
Encourage daily cleansing :Daily cleansing with a soft brush or by gently rolling the cleanser through the lash line with your fingers is recommended for your client.
For clients with an active and oily lifestyle, double cleansing twice a day is the best approach for optimal results.
Brush lashes daily: Advise clients to brush their lashes with a clean spoolie brush or wand, starting at the base of the lashes or brow hairs and working their way up to the tips. This can help to keep the lashes or brows looking neat and tidy and prevent tangling or twisting of the hairs.
As above, suggest using a clean spoolie brush or mascara wand. They can gently twirl the wand through their lashes with their fingers to separate them.
Use oil-free products & check shampoo for silicon: Advise clients to use oil-free makeup and skincare products around the eye area, as oil can break down the adhesive used for lash extensions and cause premature shedding of the lashes.
It is also worth mentioning to your client that they should be checking their shampoo for silicon as this can also affect lash retention.
Follow up: Follow up with clients after the treatment to check on their progress and ensure that they are following the aftercare instructions properly. This can help to address any concerns or issues that clients may have, and prevent potential problems down the line.
Overall, providing proper aftercare instructions and advice is crucial for maintaining the look and health of lash and brow extensions or tint. By following these tips, you can help to ensure that your clients receive the best possible care and achieve the best possible results.
