This tutorial has been so helpful. As a beginner myself and doing lots of practice, I have noticed how the sets of lashes I've been doing aren't quite in line with eachother and they don't look as neat as they should as I have literally been applying 1-1, but the advice and demo you have given on this tutorial has really helped me! I can't wait to practice some more. Thank you so much X
Hi, Thank you :) Have you checked out the Lash Tech Tutorials where you will find many more videos, help & support eyelashexcellence.com/lash-tech-tutorials/
I just pull out they lashed that are really crooked and annoying . Not really. But this video is so helpful! I feel like my sets have been looking sloppy and not uniform
No - use 1-2mm only. Years ago we were taught this but we were using such poor strength glues back then that we had to use a lot of it. Now with the advancements of good glue we only need a tiny bit. So if you haven't taken up to date training then you will not have been taught this - or you may have been taught outdated techniques. If you use too much you coat too much of the nl - which will suffocate it and cause it to become brittle and snap. You also cannot control direction of the extensions when you attach too much of it to the nl.
Hi Heather, so due to the design of flat lashes they can be more difficult to create the direction you want. Flats tend to only like to be attached to the top or underneath the natural lash and therefore if you need to attach off the side you can't really do this. However you could attach underneath or on top and still angle to extension in the direction you want him to go in. It takes some practice to get the hang of using flats so have a go. If someone has very criss crossy natural lashes flats might not be the best choice for them. You can always use flats on the natural lashes that you are able to attach well to and get direction then for those more difficult ones that you might need to attach of the side then use normal classics, it won't look odd and just means you can create the perfect uniformity and direction.
@@eyelashexcellence-frankiew3464 thank you so much for responding! That's so helpful. One more question for you...I've seen some people use a technique where they tape back the already applied extensions to reveal the lower layer of natural lashes underneath. In theory this seems great, but when I tried it I couldnt figure out how to get around/past the lashes that were taped back to apply an extension at the bases of the lower layer lashes. Is this a technique you use? And if so, what am I missing?!
Hi Heather, so yes the taping back method is a technique that some techs use to expose natural lashes easier. Personally this is not a technique that I use or teach my students. However if you do want to try it then you need de tack the tape and gently tape back the extensions to the lid, you may need to adjust your hand angle backwards slightly so that you get the extension attached.
ohh so you don't actually glue the entire extension on the natural lash ...that's what I was taught and my glue is so slow to dry puls I was a dipper ..not now thanks to u x

Thank you so much, this has been something Iv been having issues with at the minute hopefully I get on better from now on 👌🏾😘
I’m so pleased I found your tutorials I trained in lashes but have been struggling to make them look uniform this tutorial has helped me so much xxx

Can you make a video to help figure out how to pick tweezers?
good idea - yes will
I just pull out they lashed that are really crooked and annoying .
Not really. But this video is so helpful! I feel like my sets have been looking sloppy and not uniform
But with not gluing the entire lash to the real lash can’t you see the gap between the lashes when the client opens their eyes?
Does these same rules apply for russian volume placement?
Im noticing my classic sets dont fan out nicely when i am finished. How do i determine what angle is best to correct the lash to.
Very helpful. Thank you
do you think using your curved tweezer is better than angled ones
Yes because it helps you transition to volume
When using this technique should I be placing the extension directly on the base or should I extend 1mm-2mm as I would with any other natural lash?
I was told to put glue half way up the lash, is this true, ?
No - use 1-2mm only. Years ago we were taught this but we were using such poor strength glues back then that we had to use a lot of it. Now with the advancements of good glue we only need a tiny bit.

If you use too much you coat too much of the nl - which will suffocate it and cause it to become brittle and snap. You also cannot control direction of the extensions when you attach too much of it to the nl.
Can you still control the direction of extensions when using flat lashes?
