Cosmopolitan Magazine on Lash Extensions

10/8/2017

 
About a year ago Cosmopolitan Magazine posted a great article on their website about lash extensions.  It's called 12 Things I Wish I Knew Before Getting Eyelash Extensions. There is a lot of great information in this article as well as descriptive visuals of styles, curls and lengths.  Check it out.  These are the types of questions we at Salt City Lashes field all day long with our clients.  If your lash artist does not know the answers to all of these questions, you need a new lash artist.

Another week, another lash training...

2/17/2015

 
Last week I was able to offer an experienced Lash Artist some advanced training in lash extensions.  It was a great experience for both of us.  This particular lash artist has been doing lash extensions from her home for several months.  She has been unable to complete a full set of lashes in less than 4 hours or a fill in less than 2.  This is a major hinderance to her business.  

When I found out about her problem I strongly suggested she take some advanced training from me.  We went over the basic Do's and Don'ts of lash services.  It turned out that she was making SEVERAL rookie mistakes that were eating up precious service time.  

After only 2 ours of direct 1 on 1 training she learned a handful of invaluable skills and techniques that should easily help her cut her service time in half making it possible for her to take twice as many lash clients! Not only that, but with shorter service times and happier clients she will likely tap into those valuable referrals and repeat clients.  

I LOVE TRAINING!  

If you or anyone you know does lash extensions or want so learn how contact Salt City Lashes today!  For a small investment and a short amount of time you could easily double or triple what you make doing lashes!  It is WELL worth it!

What to look for in the best lash extension course/certification

2/4/2015

 
It seems that everywhere you look online there are businesses offering what they call the best lash extension training course... Well how do you know which to pick?

Here are a few red flags to look for in unprofessional training/certification courses:

1-  They do not require licensure prior to training as required by their state laws.  Here in the State of Utah it is required to have an active cosmetology or esthetics license in order to do lash extensions for compensation.

2-  They offer a training DVD if you buy their kit. There is absolutely NO way that you can learn how to properly and safely apply lash extension by watching a DVD.  This company is out to make money on you and does not care if you injure your client or put your license and name sake at risk.

3- Training takes place at un undisclosed or TBD location.  You could very well be training in someone's messy living room or a dingy hotel conference room.  Ensure that your training set up is sanitary and professional.  

4-  The trainer is not named.  You could very well be trained by someone who has little to no experience doing lashes at all... THIS happened to me.  I found out after the fact that my trainer was no licensed, and has only been doing lashes out of her own basement for a year... 

5- They don't teach proper removal or they have you work on a mannequin. Learning proper removal is vital to any successful lash business.  It is often removal that causes the most injury.  Do not sign up for a training that does not teach this. (I did and had to learn it after the fact on the job)  You also cannot possibly learn all the necessary skills you need working on a mannequin.  You need a real model to learn about proper isolation, position, style, posture, etc.  

The best lash extension courses will teach you all the aspects of lash extensions without the fluff.  You can't just look at the time spent training, you have to consider the quality of the education.  Consider class size, location, professionalism, quality of products used, experience of the trainer, continued support offered, etc.  

If you have any other questions about the training that Salt City Lashes offers or if you are having trouble comparing our offerings to another company's we encourage you to contact us.  We are glad to guide you through this process as it is a very important decision that could easily make or break your career.

Eyelash Extensions 101

10/7/2014

 
Salt City Lashes always seeks out the most informative and up to date information about eyelash extensions each day.  Today it's an article by www.dailymakeover.com  

Eyelash Extensions 101: How to Achieve and Maintain the Lashes of Your Dreams

by Aly Walansky

If you’re the type of lash-obsessed girl who must load on the mascara or perfect your falsie situation before you leave the house, it may be time to consider investing in eyelash extensions. Like hair extensions, they’re not for the faint of heart, or the non-committal, but they are a great way to get a gorgeous lash look without the day-to-day fuss. Before you take the leap, educate yourself with this basic primer on just what to expect from your eyelash extensions.

Know what you’re getting into.
There’s no way around the fact that lash extensions are, indeed, a commitment. Can you see yourself actually following through on the promise to head back to the salon for regular refills? Can you stop yourself from rubbing, touching, or playing with your lashes? Blushington Makeup and Beauty Lounge Lash Extension Expert Desiree Chapman says that it’s important to ask yourself these questions before you even think about booking your first appointment.

Above all, make sure you see a well-trained professional with good recommendations, says lash expert Kim Jaynes, who recommends finding a lash technician through a referral of someone who actually goes to them. Also, check to ensure that the professional does only individual eyelash extensions and charges the correct market value. This is not a service that you want to get at a discounted rate—these are your eyes you’re dealing with. When you get to your appointment, always make sure that your technician has clean tools, uses hand sanitizer, and wears a mask and gloves.

Be aware of the potential dangers.

Long, thick eyelashes are beautiful, but you may not realize that overuse of glued-on eyelash extensions and false eyelashes can lead to permanent eyelash damage, says Alan J. Bauman, M.D, a board-certified hair restoration physician and member of Pantene’s Hair Research Institute. There are two primary causes of this: the artificial weight of the fake lashes, which can strain or pull on the eyelash hairs, and the removal process, which involves pulling and tugging at the lashes and can directly damage the follicles. “Using false lashes once or twice is unlikely to cause lasting damage, but if they are used routinely and if the eyelashes aren’t properly applied or removed or if a woman already has weak or damaged eyelash follicles, this can cause scarring in the follicle which will prevent it from growing new lashes. In medical terminology, this condition is known as ‘traction alopecia,’ a type of baldness that is permanent and can only be reversed by hair transplantation surgery,” says Bauman.

Determine the look you’re trying to achieve.
Some people prefer shorter, but with plenty of fullness, others love them long and glamorous, and some people just want to achieve a natural-but-better look. Some lash experts are more skilled with one look versus the other. “I like to read reviews and check photos online or on third party sites, like Yelp, to help me find a great technician. You can get a good sense for how someone works, how long lashes will last, and what style your tech is best at from reviews and recommendations. I was sold on my favorite lash girl because of her Facebook page. I could tell she did the style that I was looking for,” says self-proclaimed lash junkie Becca Bijoch, a Minneapolis-based publicist.

Don’t skimp on maintenance.
Less is more when caring for your lashes, says Tianna Seo of Icon Lashes in Minnesota. ”Don’t over-wash your lashes, over-comb them, or over-think them. Just be conscious and try to develop good hands-off habits!,” Seo says. She recommends avoiding falling asleep face down, which can crush and crimp the lashes. Below, Seo shares 9 of her best tips:

1. Don’t sleep face down. Sleeping face down can crush and crimp the lashes.

2. Do not cake on heavy liners. Too much liner can cause unsightly and unhealthy build up around the extension bases—you’ll want to keep the lashes clean and free of debris to extend their life.

3. Use a lash approved cleanser. ”I prefer a brand called Sterilid ($15, walgreens.com). It keeps any yuckies at bay and helps the extensions last to their full potential,” says Seo.

4. Say no to cotton on the lashes. Fibers like those in cotton balls and q-tips can create tangles, says Seo.

5. Comb daily with a clean silicone or bristle spoolie wand. It helps to keep the lashes separated after being wet.

6. Don’t pull, pluck, twist, or fuss with the extensions.

7. No lash curlers should ever be used on extensions.

8. Listen to your technician. Length, weight, style, and design all are individual specific, if you lash stylists say NO to a specific length or look then that is for your own good.

9. Have realistic expectations. This is a fiber connected artificially to your natural eyelashes, they are durable, not indestructible. Be mindful with your activities when wearing lashes and you will love your results long term, Seo says.

Fall Beauty Trends

9/30/2014

Eyes defined





















Fall eye makeup is all about bold lashes and definition. To create a defined line, draw slowly with a fine-tipped eyeliner to “ensure maximum control and precision,” says Moani Lee, global brand ambassador for Hourglass Cosmetics. “Gently lift your eyelid and buff ... liner along your lashline and in between your lashes,” she adds. Top off with mascara or false lashes for a very Angelina Jolie look.
