Thanks for the excellent question !!

It’s important to manage, not only the client’s expectations, but our own as well.

Classic lashes are rarely going to get the kind of retention we see with mega volume for two main reasons.

1) .03s are MUCH lighter and softer than .15s meaning they can withstand more wear without breaking the glue bond and without causing breakage to the natural lash.

2) a classic lash can it be “wrapped” on the NL. When the base of a mega volume fan is applied and pressed and wiggled into placebo the natural lash, the base of the fan envelopes the natural encasing it in glue and the bases of the extensions. When that is executed properly and on clean NLs, that bond is virtually unbreakable and usually lasts the duration of the life of the natural until is sheds by itself. (That’s why you want to be in the habit of only wrapping adult lashes- they’re WAY too hard to remove during a fill if they’re grown out.)

‼️Shorter classics will generally look fuller than long ones. While you’re applying, try to make them point the same way and not crisscross, this will also give the illusion of fullness. Imagine you have a handful of pencils, and you place them on your desk in a messy pile- they’re going every which way. You can see spaces between them. 💡 Now, line them up next to each other- the spaces go away. Voila!

I hope this helps!!

We have some Covid-19 updates

Dear Lash Guy community,

I'm coming to you to ask for your help. As most of you know, I tested positive for Covid-19 in August, at which time I went into full quarantine for two weeks. While I didn't have the traditional symptoms of fever, sore throat, or difficulty breathing, I did experience extreme fatigue for a number of weeks.
I really don't want to go through that again, and I sincerely hope none of you have to experience Covid-19. That being said, I have been and plan to continue to get regular testing, my latest test being today with a negative result. I am asking that you do the same. If we are going to continue our lash relationship in a safe way, I believe we all need to submit to regular testing for Covid-19 so we don't spread it to each other. If a client infects me, I could potentially infect other clients and I don't want that. The salon suite is small and I work in very close proximity to your face, so let's do everything we can to ensure we don't spread this virus to each other. The person I got it from was likely completely symptom-free and I didn't have the usual symptoms. So the ONLY way we'll know for sure and be safe is for everyone to get tested.
So please, go out and get tested, there are free testing facilities you can find online. I got tested this morning and I had the results by the time I got home.

If you bring me your most recent negative test results, (within two weeks), I will give you 10% off your fill!
