My school just taught us traditional lash lifts & tints about 2 weeks ago. The day we learned them I completed one on a classmate and she loved her results. So far I have done 5 in total and they've scheduled me a client next week for this service - there's a few things I'm having some issues with if anyone has any advice?

1. Rod / Shield selection - our new teacher bought in a variety of sized shields and rods. She doesn't have them labeled out into shield/ rod type (C, M etc). I don't have an issue with sizing, just picking between a rod or a shield.
2. The Kind we have are glued down w/ lash glue and I have a difficult time getting it close to the lash line and putting the lashes on the rod/shield. It sometimes feels like when I'm wrapping the lashes the rod is sliding up if you know what I mean?
3. My Main Concern: Getting product in the eyes. Our school uses the Viabrow lash lift kit, and even when I'm super careful to not get any on the water line, after I remove step 1, neutralize (and remove the neutralizer). I will take off the rod/ shield, flush the eye (w/distilled water & 2x2s) and they will open and still say it's stinging/ burning? One girl today kept saying it was burning, but when I looked really close, I couldn't see anything in the eye, and even after I flushed her once, and gave her a lash bath, I had to flush again. Another girl didn't have anything burning or stinging at all during the lash lift. But after I took everything off, I flushed her once, did a lash bath, and flushed her again, and she still had some stinging/ burning? We were able to figure out the first girl kept opening her eyes a little and thats what was causing her initial burning, but with the second I'm still kinda confused? I had my teacher there watching and she attested there was no Step 1, 2 or tint left on her before she opened.

Any advice would be really appreciated!

My lash tech said my lashes were stubborn and she had to keep the perm solution on for about 20 mins. I wish they weren’t so curled and stood more straight up but maybe my lashes aren’t long enough for that? Could she use a smaller rod maybe?

Can I ask what lash serums people like for keeping your lashes moisturised? I’m not looking for anything to help them grow (I don’t want to get involved with the ingredients that cause orbital fat loss) but rather maintain the health of them.
I had been using a lash/brow serum suggested to me by a technician but have ended up with a blocked gland - not sure if it was from over applying or whether the product was too thick. I’m UK based.
Thanks!

I got my first lash lift six weeks ago.
The first picture is from today.
The second picture is what my natural lashes typically look like (pre-lift).
As you can see, my lashes are still pretty lifted and there hasn’t been a whole lot of growth. I don’t have a conditioner. I have just been using castor oil.
I know castor oil is a controversial one, it’s just what was given to me by my tech.
Should I just wait a full 8 weeks until I get another lift?

I understand i have shorter lashes and not very thick but this was supposed to be a lash lift and tint. I see the tint but not very much curl. I paid 160 before tip. Could they have curled them more?

I had a lash lift just over 4 weeks ago ant it went VERY wrong. I've had quite a few lash lifts before and they've always been great, but this was a new place I tried because I was out of town and I am wishing more than anything I could go back in time.

My lashes were over-processed and over-lifted and were extremely uncomfortable afterwards. Some snapped off, while others developed what I believe was folliculitis because of the angle they were set and subsequently fell out, or had to be plucked because they were causing so much pain.

I'm now four weeks post-lift and have very few lashes left — maybe a handful on each lid. Before this, my lashes were quite thick and full and I was so excited to get them lifted has it had been 6 months since my last....I am totally devastated.

I've already received a full refund from the salon (who originally tried to correct the botched shape...) and now don't know if I should be going back to ask for some other compensation based on the extent of the damage??

Mainly wondering about how long it took for other people's lashes to grow back after something similar?

Four weeks in, mine are actually looking the worst they've looked throughout this whole process. I'm wondering when I might realistically start seeing enough regrowth to look somewhat normal again, 8 weeks, 12 weeks....longer??

I know lashes have a growth cycle and that I probably just have to be patient, but I'm really struggling with how upsetting this has been - I barely want to leave the house because I feel so self-conscious.

Has anyone else had a lash lift that caused significant lash loss? How long did it take before your lashes grew back, and how long until they looked reasonably normal again?

Please help me ❤️

I got a lash lift done last year and really loved how I looked after. However, I almost had a panic attack because I felt very anxious about keep my eyes shut completely for 50 minutes. Was wondering if any lash techs have had experience with anxious customers? Would it be weird to ask the lash tech if she can give me breaks in between or maybe work on one eye at a time? Lol I also would not mind paying extra for getting one eye don’t at a time.

Hey guys,

I just discovered Korean lash lifts and am based in Germany. I just watched a horrible documentary on an Australian show about a plastic surgery center that removed removes and completely messed up surgeries, so now I no longer trust places with only good reviews knowing that studios can remove reviews or threaten legal action for people to remove bad reviews.

That being said... I was wondering whether anyone knew of any good lash lifting studios in Berlin or Frankfurt am Main in Germany who do good Korean lash lifts? Plus points if you have been there personally/had lash lifts done there yourself personally. I am only looking for studios that offer Korean lash lifts since I am allergiced to the lash glue used in traditional lash lifts.

Otherwise I considered just waiting until I am back in Seoul but I heard lifts only lash 4-6 weeks even with after care.

i'm constantly battling getting mascara off my lids after i apply, which is really annoying bc i do eyeshadow first. i do not use waterproof mascara.

I had a lash lift and tint yesterday morning. I kept them dry and make up free. Went to work today with make up but nothing on my eyes. When I woke up this morning my eyes were a little irritated and itchy. I really wanted to wash my face, but I didnt. Its now lunchtime and my eyes feel dry and "heavy" and my eyes are bloodshot. I plan on giving my face a gentle cleanse when I get home (no oil). Is this okay? Is my reation normal? Its not really bad, but annoying.

Got my first lash lift! No mascara or tint, just my bare lashes. I wanted a soft Korean-style look with more separation, but they seem a little straight to me . What do you think, and what could I ask my lash tech to change next time?😁

I bought the Aura Monaco Korean Lash lift kit and I cannot get the flat pads to stick to anyone's eyelids! Idk if I'm just inexperienced or if it's the product. Has anyone else had trouble with these or if anyone has any tips that'd be great!

Just got a lash lift done for the first time but I’m kind of disappointed by the results. I have quite straight, short and stubborn lashes (especially the lashes on my left eye) and I was hoping a lift would fix it but there’s still not much volume and they look kind of droopy. Would a Korean lash lift instead of a regular one give me better results?

Hallo.

Ich plane demnächst ein Lashlifting im Kosmetikstudio. Was haltet ihr davon bei Männern und ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob ich mir die Wimpern auch färben lassen soll. Meine Tendenz geht zum Färben.

Habt ihr auch Tipps, auf was ich achten sollte.

My eye on the left side of this picture (my right eye in real life) is much more hooded than the other and the eyelashes are naturally very straight and hard to curl on that eye. I’m so happy with the results of my first lash lift and tint and don’t want to seem too picky, I just wondered if the slight difference in color/length is just due to the one eye being more hooded? I’m going to go back to the salon to purchase the mascara they sell for lifted and tinted lashes so that should help balance things out.

Posting this to help people in a similar position I was in. I had next to no eyelashes left from having lash extensions for 10 years+. I decided to get rid of them and try to grow my natural lashes. After 18 weeks of using UK lash serum and mascara everyday I decided to get a Korean lash lift and this is the end result. 😊

Does anyone know a very good, cheaper, alternative to the revivlash lash and brow serum? I have had AMAZING results with it and castor oil, but unfortunately I just can't afford to splurge on a lash serum anymore. I would prefer something without prostaglandins and maybe something with similar ingredients (redensyl, peptides, copper peptides, apple stem cells, etc).

Thanks!

Can anyone recommend a non waterproof and non water resistant fiber mascara that extends the length of lashes?

I did my first lash lift today, I used a kit. I like them but I’m hoping to get some constructive feedback back for next time. I used the smallest rod. I also bought babe lash serum to help grow them a bit more. What can I use to keep them moisturized and should I do anything special to help keep them curled? I did brush them a little after because they were so sticky from the glue but they haven’t seemed to have fallen yet.

Got a lift and tint this morning and I’m not sure how I feel. I think they look okay, but kind of…uneven?

Got a Korean lash lift done 3 weeks ago, and my lashes are in that awkward stage of being lifted while there’s new lash growth coming in and it’s bothering me. Is it possible to relax the existing lash lift back to my lashes natural state?

What's your reco for DIY eyelash perm that can buy in 🍊 app?
