Hollywood eyelashes: technology, stages and benefits


Features of Hollywood extensions

The content of the technique is to visually increase the volume of eyelashes by attaching bunches of artificial bristles to the natural hairs of the ciliary row, which borders the eye from above.
Thanks to modern materials, eyelash extensions can be used not only for special occasions, but also for daily wear. For work, craftsmen choose fibers of natural colors - brown or black. At the client's request, any bright shades can be used as an addition to the main color. A combination of different color variations is acceptable.

The number of artificial or synthetic eyelashes in a bundle, which is attached to the natural hair, can reach 7 pieces. This is the main difference between the “Hollywood” technique and similar extension methods. To ensure that the added bristles do not burden the eyelid or cause discomfort, only light polymer materials are selected. It is easy to make ultra-thin (up to 0.07 mm) hair shafts from them. Therefore, sometimes clients order creation of triple volume (and even more).

The most popular is double volume, which is achieved using bundles with 2 or 3 hairs. It preserves the natural splendor of the eyelash row, harmoniously complementing it. By increasing the number of bristles in the bundle, you can achieve a “doll” effect.

By changing the length of the eyelashes (at the customer’s request), you can achieve a natural or theatrical look. Everyday make-up implies a bristle length of 8 to 12 mm, while a bristle length of more than 12 mm makes the look more decorative and expressive. In the latter case, beams of the same length are attached along the entire length of the bordering eyelash row.

Depending on how the length of the attached eyelash tufts changes, you can get a fox or squirrel type of volume. A fox-like look is achieved if the eyelashes are gradually lengthened from the inner corner of the eye to the outer. The squirrel effect is achieved when long tufts of bristles are attached only at the outer edge.

The choice of volume depends not only on the client’s wishes, but also on individual characteristics, which can affect the final result. For example, you can visually expand the distance between close-set eyes if you use the squirrel option.

To extend Hollywood eyelashes, experts sometimes use polymer fibers of different thicknesses - silk, mink, sable. Natural bristles (animal hair) are not used, they can cause eye and skin diseases. Artificial and synthetic materials give natural eyelashes additional shine and naturalness. At the same time, the raw material does not weigh down the eyelids.

Effect

There are several different effects in the Hollywood volume technique:

  • Natural (natural). Based on their name, it is clear that eyelashes look natural. The hair extensions are slightly longer than the natural ones, so they complement them.
  • Puppet. In this case, the eyelashes are very lush and long. The look becomes bright, but there is practically no naturalness.
  • Squirrel. Artificial bristles are applied to the outer corner of the eye, which visually elongates their shape. The inner corner of the eye remains untouched, so this effect is considered one of the most convenient methods.
  • Fox. This effect is very similar to the squirrel effect. The basic principle is different lengths of artificial bristles. The closer to the inner corner of the eye the eyelashes are attached, the shorter they should be. The result is a slight squint, reminiscent of a fox's gaze. Eyelash extensions in this technique imitate arrows.
  • Sparse. This effect can also be attributed to the natural version. In this case, bristles of different lengths alternate.
  • 2D effect. Eyelash extensions are attached in 2 rows, which creates additional volume.
  • 3D effect. Artificial bristles are attached in 3 rows.

Extension technology is constantly being improved, and it becomes possible to make even larger volumes. At the moment, there is a 10D effect - when 10 artificial bristles are attached to 1 natural eyelash. But this extension may look ridiculous. Also in this case, the risk of natural eyelashes breaking off under the weight of the bunches increases.

How to choose eyelashes?

Simple instructions will help you get the desired result, which will last up to 3-4 weeks:

  1. First you need to choose the right specialist. Ask about his work experience, his portfolio, materials used, guarantees.
  2. If you are preparing for an event where you need to look bright, you can choose Hollywood extensions. Admiring glances are guaranteed for you. In everyday life, you will more harmoniously look at the result that Japanese technology gives.
  3. If your goal is fluffy eyelashes like in the pictures of glossy magazines, and nature has not rewarded you with either thickness or length, choose 2D and 3D effects. However, keep in mind that for weakened hairs, such extensions will be too much of a burden.

Double eyelash volume: before and after extensions

  1. For damaged eyelashes, it is better to choose thin materials. Stop at a “mink” up to 0.15 mm thick.
  2. If you are satisfied with the condition of your eyelashes, and thanks to extensions you hope to move away from the daily ritual of using mascara, the natural effect (classic) will be the optimal solution. Silk-type materials are ideal.
  3. You can save money by choosing incomplete extensions. In this case, artificial hairs are glued only on the outer corners of the eyes.
  4. Don't forget to ask what kind of glue the master uses. Cheap products, as well as resin-based compositions, cause allergies and discomfort during the procedure itself.
  5. Finally, learn how to care for your eyelashes. Thanks to expert advice, you can keep them in perfect condition for up to 4 weeks.

Advantages and disadvantages

There are more positive aspects of having Hollywood volume eyelashes than negative ones. “Hollywood” allows you to minimize the use of decorative cosmetics, primarily mascara. This is convenient if you are prone to allergies, in particular to cosmetics.

In addition, the advantages include:

  • the relative cheapness of the eyelash extension method;
  • short duration of the cosmetic procedure (1.5–2 hours);
  • the ability to visit the pool, as materials that are resistant to moisture are used.

With the help of Hollywood eyelashes you can correct some imperfections in your appearance. For example, visually increase or decrease the distance between the eyes. The technique allows you to emphasize the beautiful natural shape of the eyes, change their shape, and the depth of planting. The bending of synthetic or artificial eyelash tufts formed in advance allows you to eliminate the need for eyelash curlers. This creates additional comfort and saves time spent on cosmetic procedures in the morning.

The use of bunches of bright colors allows you to experiment with your appearance to achieve a unique and memorable image. This may be necessary on special occasions, for example, when preparing for a festive evening, performance, or marriage ceremony.

In order to extend eyelashes, no preliminary preparation is required. Artificial or synthetic bristles do not harm natural hairs. Long-term wearing of “Hollywood” does not cause destructive changes in the hair follicle. After removal of eyelash extensions, no restoration procedures are required.

While wearing extra eyelashes, no special care is needed, you just need to comb them periodically to maintain their fullness. If the fastening materials are selected correctly, then you don’t have to worry about your appearance during temperature changes, sudden changes in humidity, or strong winds. “Hollywood” does not require frequent correction; it is enough to visit the salon once every 2 weeks.

The disadvantages of the technology include:

  • the need to avoid contact of the skin around the eyes with water during the first 24 hours after visiting the salon;
  • the need for the selection of cosmetic products for facial skin care that do not contain fats (this can cause rejection of artificial eyelash tufts);
  • inability to perform water procedures if the water contains a high content of salt and chlorinating components;
  • refusal to sleep in positions on the side or stomach (this leads to deformation and breaking of the eyelash tufts).

In addition, thick eyelashes need to be combed with a special comb, which can only be purchased from the specialist who performed the procedure. If the skin in the eye area is highly sensitive and prone to allergic reactions, then extensions can bring negative results in the form of local redness and itching.

The cyanoacrylate contained in the adhesive has potential toxicity. Despite its toxicity, it is used for its strong adhesive properties, capable of adhering even to materials containing water. But its use is associated with the risk of developing irritation, even burns. Hollywood eyelashes are not recommended for people with dry skin. Glue vapors may cause irritation to the mucous membrane of the eyes during the procedure.

Removing eyelash extensions at home

The technique allows you to remove both salon and DIY extensions. In the evening, a row of eyelashes is lubricated with vegetable oil. By morning the glue will dissolve.

Due to the large volume of material, specialists advise doing Hollywood eyelash extensions only in a salon.

The fibers are carefully removed from the eyelids. Do not pull the skin sharply, as your own eyelashes may fall out along with the hair extensions.

Result from Hollywood volume

The main result is a bright and impressive look. Provided that the materials are selected correctly, the well-groomed appearance will remain for several weeks. Hollywood volume gives the following effects:

  • allows you to give up mascara for a long time;
  • maintains a neat and immaculate appearance when visiting the pool;
  • gives high density of hair shafts, maintains naturalness;
  • maintains comfort without causing weight.

The technique guarantees the preservation of the splendor of the eyelash row during increased sweating. This means that during the hot period the eyelashes remain thick and long.

Pros and cons of Hollywood volume eyelashes

The volumetric extension under consideration has its advantages and disadvantages. There are many more advantages, let’s look at them in more detail.

  • the ability to refuse mascara;
  • resistance to rain, sweat, moisture;
  • bright image for several months;
  • density;
  • The duration of the procedure is not inferior to competing varieties of well-known techniques and takes about 2 hours.

There is only one serious disadvantage - damage to the integrity of at least one tuft leads to the appearance of noticeable bald spots and a deterioration in the overall appearance of the eyelashes. In such situations, immediate correction cannot be avoided.

The final result of the master’s work is influenced by various factors, which it is advisable to determine in advance.

What does the expected result depend on:

  1. Color. He plays an important role. When creating a natural look, brown or black shades are usually chosen. If the goal is to be bright, add several colorful strands in all sorts of combinations.
  2. Length. The range of artificial eyelashes is quite wide, ranging in size from 6 to 20 mm. The optimal length is considered to be 8–14 mm. The maximum sizes are usually used for glamorous parties or one-off holiday events.
  3. Density. The final volume depends on the choice of beam composition.

The specialist will always select the best options for a particular case, taking into account all the wishes and ideas of the client. It is important to consider contraindications - conjunctivitis, increased sensitivity of the eyelids, blepharitis, allergies.

Advice from professionals

After viewing photographs that reflect the amazing expressiveness of the look, I urgently want to try on this image. The first advice from a professional is to find a very good specialist - a virtuoso, since this technique requires great concentration and accuracy in forming a tuft of hairs.

Proper gluing should last at least 3 weeks. Some masters use ready-made bundles. But with this extension technology, there is no need to resort to the 7D procedure, since the eyelashes may be larger than the required thickness of the mass. Good hairdressers form buns individually for each girl, which is fully justified when viewing the result.

In each specific case, the specialist assesses the condition of natural hairs in his own way. Based on their parameters, he selects the material that is most advantageous according to all criteria. A good professional can even determine the material that was used from a photo.

Who is the extension suitable for?

It is recommended that girls with weak and sparse eyelashes choose this technique. Additional hairs will help compensate for the lack of bristles in the row and look presentable and neat. If the hair shaft is weak and fragile, the procedure will help highlight the beauty of the eyes and make the look more expressive.

It is recommended to extend eyelashes to Hollywood volume for representatives of the fair sex with deep-set eyes. This helps highlight the eyes. Tufts of several bristles of different lengths along the outer edge of the eyelash row correct the look if the eyes are close.

“Hollywood” with natural long eyelash tufts is suitable for girls with puffy eyelids. The technique will allow you to create a unique image if you are planning a wedding or public appearance. To achieve the desired result, you should take into account individual characteristics and listen to the advice of a specialist.

Review of materials

With this extension method, close attention should be paid not only to the competent choice of a specialist. It is definitely worth checking what materials the master works with and from which supplier he purchases artificial eyelashes.

The best choice for any eyes will be hypoallergenic fibers from a well-known manufacturer, the quality and originality of which are confirmed by relevant certificates.

On the modern market, hair extensions (including the Hollywood method) are presented in a wide range. In order not to make a mistake with your choice, it is strongly recommended to make sure that in the chosen beauty salon the master purchases materials for work in specialized stores and gives preference to products from the world's leading manufacturers.

Premium hair from Ardell is highly valued by professionals. The hairs offered by this company are made from natural fiber that is resistant to moisture and water. The fibers themselves are very thin, if not microscopic. After extensions they look natural and harmonious. Their cost is from 700 rubles.

The global brand Dolce Vita is one of the leaders in the production of artificial eyelashes. Masters of many salons prefer to work with this particular brand of material. Dolce Vita hairs are sold loose in relatively small containers. They are distinguished by their rich black color and perfectly tolerate any contact with the aquatic environment. The cost of this product depends on the number of eyelashes in the set and starts from 600-700 rubles.

Kodi Professional also has every reason to be proud of its eyelash extension materials. To produce artificial hairs, the manufacturer uses high-quality, environmentally friendly and hypoallergenic material of synthetic origin. Despite the fact that the names of the hairs (mink, silk, sable) have a direct reference to naturalness, they are not natural.

Hairs produced under the Kodi Professional brand vary in length, width and are offered in various colors. As a result, choosing the most suitable option will not be difficult.

Another well-known brand, Salon Professional, is also in demand in the beauty products market. All its products are of excellent quality and have certificates of conformity. The main feature of Salon Professional extension materials is the breadth of their range. The manufacturer offers hairs of different colors, thickness, length and price category.

You shouldn't skimp on eyelash extensions

Currently, almost any beauty salon provides eyelash extension services using the Hollywood method. But it is still not recommended to contact the first one you come across. You should choose a place that has been around for a long time and has already earned the trust of its customers.

The main guarantee of a quality extension is the skill and professionalism of the performer.

Eyelash extension technology

First of all, you need to determine what effect you want to get. To do this, you need to look at the photographs of the extension results. You need to find out everything about the materials that will be used in the procedure and make sure that they are suitable. You cannot agree to work with cheap and untested means.

The procedure begins with complete removal of makeup. This is done using special cosmetics removers. The growth stages are as follows:

  1. The lower row of eyelashes is separated from the upper row by placing a gel, fabric or paper pad between them. This will protect the hairs of the upper and lower eyelids from sticking together and getting bristles and drops of glue onto the mucous membrane of the eye. Such errors can provoke the development of blepharitis and conjunctivitis.
  2. For better contact of the glue with the bristles, degrease the upper eyelash row with special cosmetics.
  3. Using tweezers, the base eyelash is separated from the rest of the rods so that the beam can be glued to it.
  4. A bundle is prepared from the required number of artificial hairs. Glue is applied to its base, then glued to the base of the natural rod, avoiding contact with the skin. The eyelashes should not stick together; their ends should be directed in different directions, while respecting the general direction of the row and the bend.
  5. The glued bristles are pressed for a few seconds for better adhesion to the base.
  6. The next base eyelash is chosen not next to each other, but after a few hairs. This is done so that the glue has time to dry and gluing does not occur.
  7. When extending eyelashes of the lower row, carefully pull back the eyelid using a patch, making sure not to expose the mucous membrane of the eye. Using a patch helps to sequentially work the entire row from the inner corner of the eye to the outer.
  8. Having completed the extension, the eyelashes are treated with a fixative, which additionally fixes the tufts. Check for the presence of glues, separate the villi if necessary, and comb them.
  9. You can open your eyes another 10 minutes after finishing work, during which time the vapors of the adhesive material will evaporate.

The procedure requires great care and qualified personnel. It cannot be done in a hurry.

Extension technique

The growth occurs according to the following scheme:

Extensions at home are fraught with such troubles as crookedly glued hairs

  • all makeup is removed from the eyelids;
  • Next, the hairs are degreased using a special product;
  • A collagen pad is placed under the lower eyelid;
  • a minimal amount of glue is applied and artificial hairs are attached to the roots of real eyelashes;
  • At the final stage, treatment is carried out with a fixing agent.

Important! Hollywood volume eyelash extensions are not suitable for young ladies with too weak and brittle natural eyelashes, since the artificial hairs themselves are quite heavy. Therefore, you should first strengthen your eyelashes with the help of special means and after they become healthy, go to beauty salons.

It should be noted that extensions at home are fraught with such troubles as crookedly glued hairs, glue getting into the eyes and damage to the “native” eyelashes. To eliminate risks, you should have eye drops and oils on hand that dissolve dried glue.

How is the procedure performed?

After the artificial hairs of the required length have been selected , they are laid out on the cosmetology table.

At the same time, the client's eyelashes are cleaned of makeup and treated with a degreaser .

To perform the Hollywood technique , hairs of the same length and thickness are usually used; the bend can be arbitrary and is selected depending on the cut and shape of the eyes.

Protective pads are placed on the lower eyelid to prevent glue from accidentally getting on the lower eyelashes.

You should know! Next, one tuft is grabbed with one tweezers, dipped in glue and pressed against a natural eyelash.

The procedure is repeated for each hair, after which a fixing compound is applied to them and they are combed with a soft brush.

This is done so that individual eyelashes do not stick together yet, since polymerization of the glue will continue for about three hours.

The lower hairs do not grow with this technique.

Stages of extension and selection of materials

After preliminary preparation, the extension process begins:

  1. First, makeup is removed and eyelashes are treated with a degreaser.
  2. To prevent gluing, silicone pads are placed on the bottom row of hairs.
  3. Using tweezers, artificial hairs are formed into a bun, dipped in glue and attached to a natural eyelash. The process takes on average 1-2 hours.
  4. At the end of the work, the master combs the hairs and applies a protective gel.

To ensure that your clients are happy with the results for a long period of time, use only high-quality materials:

  • Salon Professional. This brand offers its consumers bundled mink eyelashes with a thickness of 0.15-02 mm. The assortment is presented in a wide range of colors.
  • Ardell. The manufacturer produces bundles consisting of 3 charcoal-colored hairs. The fibers easily withstand exposure to water and have a luxurious bend.
  • Kodi Professional. The manufacturer's line offers a wide selection of mink, silk and sable fibers, which are distinguished by their high quality and safety of use.
  • 3D Beauty International. Light, but at the same time long and thick bundles are suitable for irresistible three-dimensional extensions.
  • Dolce Vita. Rich black color, velvety curves of category C and B - these are just some of the advantages of the products of this brand.

Every woman who lacks the natural volume and length of her eyelashes has at least once thought about getting artificial hair extensions. Hollywood volume is one of the most memorable and striking extension techniques, with which you can instantly change your image and become like one of the celebrities living in the expanses of Beverly Hills.

Rules of care

In order for eyelashes to last as long as they should, you need to carefully carry out hygiene procedures. You should refrain from washing your face with water on the first day. You should not use a hard towel for drying; you should blot your face with a cotton napkin. In the future, when removing makeup, you need to use only special products (they should be called by a specialist). Remove cosmetics with a cotton pad using light movements, avoiding friction and pressure on the eyelashes.

You should carefully study the composition of available decorative cosmetics and facial skin care products. It is necessary to exclude oil-based creams and lotions, as they can damage the structure of artificial and synthetic fibers. In addition, fats from cosmetics can destroy the adhesive composition. It is better not to use curling tools at all. When heated, the polymers from which the bristles are made melt and lose their shape. You should not use mascara; it also negatively affects the structure of additional villi.

During sleep, do not allow eyelashes to come into contact with the pillow. Bright sun rays, sea water, and chlorine-containing pool water disinfectants greatly reduce the service life of eyelash extensions. To remove eyelashes you need a special composition; it is difficult to carry out this procedure without skill. Therefore, it is better to seek the help of beauty salon specialists. This will guarantee that your own eyelashes will not “go away” along with the artificial ones.

Care instructions

There is a list of several simple rules that should be followed to extend the life of your eyelash extensions:

  • During the first 24 hours, try not to wet your eyes and eyelashes so that the glue can dry easily and the tufts do not fall off prematurely;
  • During the first two days, you should avoid visiting the solarium, sauna and bathhouse, as well as drinking alcohol , since it produces acetone on the eyelashes and interferes with the adhesion of the glue;
  • You should not rub your eyes. If you need to remove eyeliner or eye shadow, use a cotton pad soaked in a special makeup remover solution or a cotton swab, which can remove residual makeup in the most difficult to reach areas;
  • Eyelashes need to be brushed daily to keep them looking neat.

Can eyelash extensions be dyed?

After Hollywood extensions, do not use mascara, as it can weaken the effect of the glue. Decorative cosmetics are removed with a special preparation for eyelash extensions.

Hollywood extension deserves a "star" name. The technique makes the dream of long, thick eyelashes come true that do not require makeup. Every woman can feel like the heroine of a Hollywood movie, whose face remains flawless at any time of the day or night.

Reviews

Elena, 29 years old, Stavropol: “A friend advised me to get Hollywood extensions for my naturally sparse eyelashes.” The salon explained in detail what it is. I did 3D extensions. The volume was amazing. I was a little puzzled that the material from which the bristles were made turned out to be hard. It was also difficult to get used to constantly sleeping only on your back. It is difficult to control yourself all the time so as not to damage your eyelashes by touching and scratching.

They lasted more than 4 weeks, I only went to touch them once. It’s convenient that you don’t have to use mascara, saving time on morning makeup. The look is expressive and open.”

Oksana, 25 years old, Cheboksary: ​​“I like Hollywood eyelash extensions because they give me the opportunity to always look presentable. Eyelash extensions are not afraid of water and retain their beauty even after the pool. It's convenient to go on vacation with them. The only drawback is that the plastic eyelashes cause severe irritation when they get into the eye. It is almost impossible to fix the problem without outside help. I noticed that my own eyelashes were not damaged by the extensions.”

How long do Hollywood eyelashes last?

How to comb eyelash extensions correctly

The Hollywood eyelash extension method takes less time than classical spot eyelash extensions. If you do extensions at home, it will take 2-3 hours; in a salon, a specialist will do this procedure faster. In addition, there is a risk of damage to the material, which will not be reusable, which is why a home procedure can be even more expensive than a beauty salon.

Eyelash extensions that give Hollywood volume should not be worn on a regular basis. After 1-2 corrections, they should be removed completely and take a break, or do a classic extension. The time interval between extension and correction is approximately 3-4 weeks.

Be that as it may, before doing the extension procedure, it is important to understand, first of all, for yourself what effect should be expected in the end, what health consequences the procedure can have and whether after extension the woman is ready to do without this procedure.

How much does Hollywood eyelash extensions cost? How is Hollywood eyelash extension done?

Every girl who is going to a banquet, wedding or graduation can safely try Hollywood eyelash extensions. This looks very impressive, because the curls get double volume, the eyes become more expressive and brighter. It is also worth noting the fact that the procedure is inexpensive and quite accessible to every woman. Hollywood (or bundle) extensions fully correspond to their name, because they involve gluing 5-7 artificial curls to one hair.

Features of the procedure

This method of extension appeared much earlier than the more labor-intensive and popular eyelash extension method. The technology is very simple, because you need to glue the curls in whole bunches, which speeds up the process significantly. In total, for eyelash extensions (for one eye) you will need 8-12 bundles. They are attached to the growth line of their eyelashes. As a result, you get amazing volume, which makes you look spectacular, like a Hollywood star.

Despite certain disadvantages, this method of extension is very popular among girls.

The beams are glued much faster and easier if you compare the method with Japanese technology.

However, the bunches last much less on the eyes than artificial curls glued along the hair.
If you want to quickly and effectively highlight your eyes and give your eyelashes dizzying volume, then feel free to choose the Hollywood method. The procedure can be performed at home or in a beauty salon.

Advantages and disadvantages

For this extension method, different materials are used. They classify it by length, color, thickness, volume, softness. However, compared to Japanese technology, the variety in this case is inferior. In addition, the lush volume obtained as a result of the procedure may not look as natural as when gluing artificial curls one hair at a time. The effects that can be created on the eyes also differ in small amounts.

However, Hollywood technology, as well as the puppet method, has its advantages and is used quite often. First of all, it is worth noting the low cost of the procedure and the speed of obtaining luxurious volume on the eyes. In addition, using black gel to hold the buns in place effectively highlights the eyelid line and looks like eyeliner, allowing you to avoid wearing makeup. Extending eyelashes using Hollywood technology is very simple, and you will soon be transformed, so the method is in demand and is often carried out in the salons of a specialist or at home in the company of friends.

What materials are needed for the procedure

You can easily carry out the extension yourself, without the help of a specialist. To do this, you will need to prepare everything you need in advance:

  • Eyelashes in bunches. It is better to buy it in a specialized store to be sure of the quality of the material. The beams can be of different lengths, depending on the effect you want to achieve. Each eye will require from 6 to 20 beams. It is advisable to buy natural hairs, but artificial ones also look luxurious;
  • Cosmetic oil;
  • Glue. Typically, this is a black or clear gel that comes in a set with curl bundles. If you purchase it separately, choose a hypoallergenic composition;
  • You will need tweezers to attach the bundles;
  • Cotton pads and buds.

How to do extensions at home

If you don’t have time to visit a specialist, then you can easily glue the bunches at home. However, it is better to enlist the help of your mother, friend or sister to glue the curls exactly along the lash line.

How does extension work at home:

  • Before gluing the beams, you need to carry out the procedure of degreasing the eyelid. To do this, the eyes are cleaned of cosmetics and then treated with a special degreasing agent. If you omit this stage, you will not be able to glue the curls;
  • Start gluing the bundles from the upper eyelid. Do not touch the material with your hands; take it with special tweezers. After this, the root of the beam is dipped in glue and pressed to the growth line of your eyelashes;
  • When you finish gluing the bunches, comb the hairs with a special brush.

Do not forget that following the direction when gluing the bundles is very important. It is recommended to start from the outer corner of the eye, gradually moving towards the central and inner part. During the process, the hairs should not stick together or get tangled. To prevent glue from getting into your eyes, close them while gluing the curls.

If the material is not glued evenly, then you need to dip a cotton swab in oil and press it against the root of the bundle for a couple of seconds. After this, the glue will dissolve and you can remove the curl with tweezers. It is important to note that tearing or cutting off glued bundles is prohibited! To remove artificial eyelashes, you can use the method described above with cosmetic oil.
