Your makeup classes and eyelash extension training on Long Island, NY, include everything you need to know to produce great lashes for your customers. The only thing you’re missing is the practice needed to create the perfect results. But how do you become an expert without testing your skills on paying customers? Practice at home!
There are several ways you can increase your skill level without worrying about making mistakes:
Use the Hair on Your Head
The hair on your head is similar enough to eyelashes to make it the ideal substitute. Take a strand and tape it across the opening of an empty cup. Start attaching the fans to the hair; this practice will help you get used to using adhesive.
Apply Extensions to a Sponge
If you struggle to keep your extensions neat, try using a sponge with a rounded edge. First, apply a base set of lashes to the sponge, and then work on adding extensions to the lashes.
Use a Mannequin
If you don’t have a mannequin, consider adding one to your eyelash extension training process. Treat the mannequin as you would a client by using the undereye pads, adding natural lashes, and then applying for the extensions.
Practice with a Friend
If you know someone willing to be your model, ask them to sit for you. They’ll get a set of lovely lashes, and you’ll get in the practice!
