🪄 Step-by-Step Classic Lash Technique Breakdown

✅ Step 1: Prepare Your Tools

First, gather everything you need: two tweezers (curved or straight), lash glue, a glue ring, and a mannequin or practice strip.
Then, wear the glue ring on your index finger—or your thumb if that feels more comfortable.
In addition, don’t forget to clean the glue bottle nozzle after pouring a single drop to avoid blockages.
Otherwise, dried glue could interfere with your future sets.

✅ Step 2: Learn How to Isolate and Pick Up Lashes

Next, use your non-dominant hand to isolate the lashes while your dominant hand picks them up.
To begin with, discard the first few lashes if they’re not perfect—this is normal.
Eventually, you’ll develop consistency as your hand coordination improves.
Consequently, your application will become faster and cleaner over time.

✅ Step 3: Practice Lash Placement

Now, you’re ready to place the lashes.
Carefully, follow these steps:

• Dip the lash into the glue, just like you’ve practiced on paper

• Gently place it on the strip, count 1–2–3, then release the tweezers

• Ensure the lash base is about 0.2–0.7 mm away from the black tape line

• Repeat the process one lash at a time

Most importantly, when separating for the next lash, make sure to leave about 0.5–1 cm of space to avoid disturbing lashes that haven’t fully dried.
Otherwise, the lash may shift or detach before the glue sets.
