Eyelash extensions with the effect of "rays"

Eyelashes "rays" look very natural, but at the same time they are able to visually "open" the look and make the natural beauty of the eyes more noticeable. Since this type of building has its own specifics, only an experienced specialist should trust it.

Extension of eyelashes - "rays" implies that along the arc of the eyelid, long hairs of synthetic fiber are glued through a certain amount of the same short ones. The master selects samples with different lengths and thicknesses, but harmoniously looking against the background of natural ones. Typically, long fibers adhere after 5-7 short, but at the request of the client this gap is reduced or increased. The direction of the glued bristles is determined in such a way as to create the effect of rays uniformly diverging in different directions.

Unusual build should only be carried out by a qualified craftsman, since the whole process is labor intensive and requires a painstaking approach. Removing old hairs and overgrowing can be carried out only after two months.

It is necessary to clarify that often the buildup of "rays" is confused with the creation of a sparse effect. However, the second variety, which is also incomplete extension, means that false eyelashes are attached with a certain gap, without filling the entire eyelash row. This procedure is much faster, and the result is not very noticeable to the eyes.

The main advantage of this procedure is getting a natural looking result, especially if brown material is used. The duration of the effect is more than two weeks, and all this time you can not think about using mascara. If you follow the recommendations of experts, then you can walk with artificial eyelashes for a whole month. With the help of building, you can slightly raise the overhanging eyelid, increase the volume of hairs or slightly modify the shape of the eye. Waterproof glue is not afraid of rain and does not provoke allergic reactions.

When using a black adhesive base, the effect of applying eyeliner additionally occurs. Gluing artificial hairs in those places where their own are minimally represented, makes it possible to outline the contour of the eye and add volume to the eyelashes. The hypoallergenic glue used in the work allows the procedure to be carried out even if there is an allergy to the components present in other preparations.

As for the minuses, then the build-up of “beams” on thin or weakened eyelashes is still too heavy and leads to serious damage to the hair rods. Owners of dry skin often celebrate tightness of the eyelids and other allergic manifestationsarising from the use of glue.

Girls with oily skin, on the contrary, report that excess sebum does not allow high-quality fixation of artificial fibers. The loss of even a pair of “rays” will lead to the disappearance of the effect of splendor, as a result of which the eyes begin to look less neat. It must be admitted that the likelihood of injury to their own eyelashes is still high.

In principle, the disadvantages include the fact that the extension procedure is quite lengthy and sometimes even goes beyond the promised 2 hours. However, this is not due to the fact that the villi stick for a long time or dry out, but because the master first has to draw up an individual diagram and select the material. Thus, it is more convenient for both parties when the procedure is carried out in two stages. First, the lashmaker studies the natural hairs of the client and listens to her wishes, after which she draws up a diagram. At the next meeting, there is already a direct build-up with the use of hairs of the required length and thickness.

The use of extended “rays” is, in principle, a classic extensionTherefore, it suits everyone, without exception, regardless of the shape of the eyes and face. If a woman has her own thick and long cilia, then the use of hair extensions will create a “puppet” effect. Short thick hairs with the help of "rays" become elongated and voluminous.

After the procedure, long but rare cilia will become more dense, and short straight eyelashes will acquire a beautiful bend and a great length. To create the most natural image, the B-bend of the bristles will help, but to enlarge the eyes and raise the overhanging eyelid, it is better to pay attention to the C- or D-bend. Type C also creates the feeling of mascara tinted eyelashes.

However, in some situations the creation of the effect of "rays" is undesirable.

1. If the client’s own eyelashes grow too rarely, the use of long synthetic fibers will only emphasize their imperfection.
2. When wearing glasses, the hairs constantly rub against the glass and are damaged as a result. Unpleasant sensations can occur in this case and during blinks. However, you can fix the problem when choosing the L-bend of false eyelashes.
3. Thin and weak eyelashes simply will not bear the severity of artificial material and, most likely, will begin to come off with it.

As a rule, to build up "rays" either silk or mink is used. In the first case, a thicker material is used, which creates a natural volume, and in the second case, a natural shine appears, and the cilia look painted on. It must be added that false mink hairs are also lighter.

The shape of the eyelashes, as well as the bend, is selected individually. The same can be said about the length, but when determining it, it is necessary to take into account not only the individual characteristics and needs of the client, but also the state of his own hairs. The thickness of the fibers is from 0.07 to 0.10 mm, but usually a lashmaker combines several options. Thick fibers are used to add brightness to the eyelashes.

To make a buildup with a "ray" effect, cosmetologists use synthetic fibers, the length of which is from 8 to 12 millimeters, depending on the elongation of their own eyelashes. Artificial elongated cilia are glued one at a time in compliance with the required interval, as a rule, it is from 2 to 5 pieces. The classic extension scheme implies that after a specified interval one large synthetic hair is glued. To achieve the 2D effect, again through the gap, 2 artificial bristles are fixed on each natural hair, and the 3D effect in this case requires 3 synthetic villi.

The radiation method for eyelash extension requires the use of sterile high-quality materials. Since the procedure is carried out near the mucous membrane of the eye, the instruments used must be disinfected. In addition to the material itself, you will need to purchase hypoallergenic glue, cotton pads, fabric tape, toothpicks and a special degreaser. For convenient use of the adhesive substance, it is better to prepare a plastic or glass container of a small size.

The scheme of eyelash extensions “rays” with a detailed description is made individually for each client. The lashmaker takes into account that the hairs can grow less often or more often and at different intervals, listens to requests and preferences, after which a pattern is formed that takes into account the gluing of false eyelashes at different intervals and with length variations. Before starting the procedure, markings are applied directly to the eyelids of the client when using a cosmetology marker. The specialist will glue the eyelashes in the direction of these traced "rays".

It all starts with the fact that artificial cilia of the required length and bend are placed on fabric or white paper, and glue is poured into a special container. Tweezers can be pre-treated with a degreaser. Having spent make-up procedure, it is necessary to treat eyelashes and eyelids with the same degreaser to ensure better fixation of artificial fibers. You can also treat them with a primer.

The lower eyelids with eyelashes are closed with adhesive tape moistened halves of cotton pads or silicone or gel patches suitable for long-term use to protect a sensitive zone from hit of glue.

Top cilia comb a special brush and are separated by straight tweezers. Further, curved tweezers are used to pick up an artificial hair. Synthetic threads are taken one at a time, then lowered into a glue with a blunt edge and attached to the client’s own eyelash. It is important not to forget about the alternation of length. Toothpick during the procedure is useful to press down the eyelashes, while the glue has not yet dried.

Eyelash extensions extend from the outer corner of the eye to the inner. When gluing all new fibers, it is necessary to make sure that they "look" in one direction and look natural. When the procedure is completed, you should not immediately open your eyes - it is better to wait about 5-10 minutes until the glue dries. At the end of the procedure, the eyelashes are covered with a fixative. The resulting result will remain unchanged for at least 2 weeks, but then correction may be required.

Despite the fact that individual cilia are used to build up the “beams”, a pair of beams can be placed in the outer corners of the eyes if the hairs in this place are too rare or short. During the correction, carried out on 10-14 days after the procedure itself, filling of the appeared bald spots occurs. The lower eyelashes must be fixed with special tape or patches, after which it is necessary to comb the upper bristles to identify problem areas. New hairs are glued into the voids, and after the glue dries, all the cilia are combed again. At the end of the procedure, patches and tape are removed from the eyelids.

In order for extended eyelashes to please the client as long as possible, she will have to follow a few basic care recommendations.

1. Recommended on the first day eliminate any interaction with liquids and steamincluding washing, shampooing, hiking in the bathhouse and pool.
2. Next for makeup remover do not use any alcohol-containing products or preparations containing natural oils.
3. Throughout the entire period of wearing eyelashes Any exposure to the eyes should be avoided, especially rubbing and scratching.
4. A visit to the pool or sea bathing is better to limit too, since the chlorine and salt contained in the water can lead to the destruction of the adhesive substance.
5. Eyelash extensions do not need to be curled even with ordinary tongs, since this procedure can make the hair brittle. But everyday combing of cilia with a special brush will only be beneficial.
6. If possible, at night you need to monitor the position of the body, not allowing sleep face in the pillow.
7. If after removing the artificial cilia it was found that their own greatly weakened, it is necessary to take a break from any type of exposure to them and nourish the hairs with complexes with vitamins A and E, as well as castor, peach and burdock oils. If necessary, serum growth enhancing agents are also used.
8. Make-up remover An impregnated cotton pad must be applied to the eyelid, and then wait for the cosmetics to dissolve. Sliding movements are best limited, but you can add light vibrating ones. Then you need to wash yourself very quickly so that the water does not have time to dissolve the glue. By the way, oil-containing carcasses should also be discarded, although some experts believe that any other too.
9. If the effect of opacity is observed in the eyes, then the fault is the wrong work of the master who made a mistake in choosing the shade and bending. Eyelash correction is best done by the same master who carried out the initial extension.
10. In no case should you wipe your wet cilia with a towel, especially tough. It’s much more correct to get your eyelids wet with a soft dry cloth.
11. Do not apply oily cream on the eyelidscapable of dissolving adhesive substance.
12. If the client needs to independently remove the extensions, then just pulling them out will be wrong - so will your own eyelashes. You can try for a long time to simply wet them or purchase a special remover in the store and act according to the instructions.
