Hollywood eyelash extensions

Eyelash extensions are becoming more and more popular in the beauty industry. This is not only a good way to save time in the morning fees. Do not forget about saving cosmetics and the money spent on them. Moreover, no mascara in the world, whatever it is, lengthening or voluminous, will not make your look so bright and expressive. In this article, we will talk about eyelash extensions with a Hollywood effect. We will analyze the features, the smallest details and varieties of this technique, as well as the rules for caring for them.

It is not difficult to guess that the name of this technique came to us straight from Hollywood. This is due to the fact that it was in the Hollywood hills that movie stars first began to use this technique to achieve the effect of lush eyelashes and make-up looked harmonious in the camera. And only a few years later, masters of the whole world began to use Hollywood extensions in everyday life.

The beam extension method is not as energy-intensive as the eyelash method, because it is much easier to glue several beams than several hundred cilia. But this method also has a major drawback: not one imperceptible hair falls off, but a whole bunch at once, which, of course, greatly affects the appearance of the remaining eyelashes.

Thus, about 7-12 pieces of beams are glued to each eye. To create a Hollywood volume, they mainly use 4D-6D technology, rarely others. Between themselves, they differ only in the number of artificial cilia glued to one live. In 4D volume there are four cilia, in 5D volume there are five, and in 6D volume there are six, respectively..

Do not be afraid that such an extension may look vulgar and make your eyelashes look more like brushes. It does not weigh down the eyelids and does not interfere with normal life, since the thickness of synthetic eyelashes is negligible - 0.7 millimeters. And the correct fastening allows you to evenly distribute the weight so that they do not injure or cause discomfort to your own eyelashes.

With the help of beam extension technology, it is possible to create various visual effects:

• Foxy. This effect can be obtained by using eyelashes of different lengths. In the inner corner of the eye, it is necessary to stick short hairs, and at the outer corner - as long as possible so that they imitate an arrow, visually lengthen the eye and create a small cunning squint.

• Squirrel. Perhaps, it can also be attributed to the category of Hollywood extension due to the density of artificial eyelashes.The principle of this technology is to stick synthetic hairs only on the outer side of the corner of the eye, due to which the look does not become heavier at all, but becomes more expressive, and the shape of the eye is drawn out, as in a fox.

• Puppet. This effect will make your eyes really look like a doll. For its implementation, the longest cilia are used along the entire length of the eyelid. Due to this effect, the eyes become visually much larger.

• Natural. Such eyelashes will never give themselves away and no one around will guess that they are extensions. They are perfect for daytime everyday makeup. The length and thickness of the eyelashes with a natural effect, the master selects for the client's eyelashes, usually they differ little from them. Also, for greater naturalness, you can choose brown synthetic eyelashes.

• Sparse. Looks quite natural. Created by alternating hairs of different lengths. Can replace both voluminous and lengthening mascara.

In addition to the above standard effects, there is a creative extension: feathers, rhinestones, colored hairs. However, this method is usually not used for everyday wear, but is used for any events and celebrations, as well as in the modeling business.

Before the extension procedure, you and the master need to decide on the following points:

• Eyelash extension color. For a more natural effect, choose classic colors: black or brown. If you want to add a new unusual touch to your look, you can always add a few colored eyelashes that would nicely set off the color of your eyes.
• Length. It also depends on how natural you would like your eyes to be. In sets, artificial hairs come in standard sizes from 6 to 18 millimeters. The most popular length is from 8 to 12.
• Density. Depends on the number of artificial hairs per natural. Owners of their rare eyelashes willy-nilly have to do double volume to give them an aesthetic appearance.

Typically, the Hollywood eyelash extension procedure is performed according to the following algorithm:

1. First of all, Remove existing makeup, therefore, in order not to waste either your time or the time of the master, it is better to come to the procedure without eye makeup.
2. Then, be sure to degrease the eyelashes with a special tool. for a better grip on the glue.
3. Lower eyelashes need to be pressed with a special adhesive tapeso that glue does not get on them and there is no difficulty in opening the eye after the procedure.
4. After such a long preparation, the stage of direct build-up finally begins. For greater accuracy of his actions, the master uses tweezers, with which he dips the bundles into an adhesive solution without any problems, and then glues them. This procedure takes an average of two to three hours.
5. At the end of all manipulations, the master combs the eyelashes with a brushto make sure that there are no bald spots and, if necessary, amends the work.

The positive aspects of this technology:

• dizzying volume of eyelashes;
• the look becomes more expressive;
• procedure takes less timethan eyelash extension of a smaller volume;
• less time spent on morning preparations, because the shape of the eyes is already sufficiently emphasized and there is no need to draw graphite arrows or shade "smoky ice".

However, the main negative factor is the weight of the bundles, due to their heaviness, they do not stay on the eyelashes for as long as regular ones, and, unfortunately, are not suitable for owners of weak hairs. Therefore, if you have a similar problem, then try to solve it with the help of special products that can be found both in cosmetic stores and pharmacies, or with the help of restoring salon procedures. And when your eyelashes finally get stronger, you can safely do voluminous Hollywood extensions.

Another important nuance is that Hollywood volume is not suitable for permanent buildup. After one or two procedures, it is advisable to take a break. If you can’t imagine your life without eyelash extensions, then in extreme cases, instead of completely abandoning artificial fiber, you can turn to more “calm” volumes, for example, classic or 2D.

There is a list of several simple rules that should be followed in order to extend the wear of eyelash extensions:

• during the first day, try not to wet your eyes and eyelashesso that the glue can dry calmly and the bundles do not fall off ahead of time;
• during the first two days, you should stop visiting the solarium, sauna and bath, as well as drinking alcohol, since acetone is produced from it on the cilia and interferes with the adhesion of the glue;
• you should not rub your eyes. If you need to wipe off eyeliner or eye shadow, use a cotton pad soaked in a special makeup remover solution or a cotton swab, which can remove makeup residue in the most difficult areas;
• eyelashes should be combed daily with a brushto make them look neat.

Girls who have done Hollywood eyelash extensions claim that this technique allows you to increase the volume of eyelashes by two to three times. They absolutely do not weigh down the look and do not pull the eyelids down. Lush and beautiful eyelashes do not cause absolutely no discomfort, but only make you more attractive and attract the views of others.

At any time, if you get tired of walking with such eyelashes, or if they begin to fly off on their own and look less aesthetically pleasing, you can remove them.

In no case should you tear out the bundles, because it is obvious that you can remove them, but your own eyelashes will also go with them, and it will be very problematic to restore their growth, especially if you damage the hair follicle without knowing it.

Extended eyelashes can always be removed from the same master who made them or from any other. The removal procedure is very simple and fast, any master will cope with this task without damaging anything to you. Do not spare money on your own beauty, especially since the removal will cost you no more than 300 rubles and take no more than 20 minutes.
