CHAPTER 10: PREPPING YOUR CLIENTS
Proper client preparation is an essential step in creating beautiful, long-lasting lash extensions. Before beginning any application, it's important to make sure your client's natural lashes are clean, properly prepped, and ready for a successful appointment. Taking the time to prepare your client helps improve retention, support comfort, and create a smoother application process.
A thorough lash bath is one of the most important steps in client preparation. Removing makeup, oils, and buildup from the natural lashes creates a clean surface for adhesive bonding. Understanding how to properly cleanse the lashes and when to use primer can help you achieve better attachment and longer-lasting results.
Taping techniques also play an important role in preparing your client. Learning how to correctly secure the lower lashes and adjust your taping methods helps improve visibility, precision, and comfort throughout the appointment. It's also important to understand how to work with clients who have sensitive eyes so you can make appropriate adjustments for a more comfortable experience.
