Sooner or later, any master or girl practicing eyelash extensions at home is faced with the problem of choosing professional tools. The choice is complicated by a wide range. As they say, you can choose for every taste and color. However, in order not to make a mistake with the purchase of low-quality or impractical goods, It is recommended to adhere to the following selection criteria:

1. Closing edges;
2. Tool weight;
3. Ease of operation;
4. Tweezer mechanism;
5. External coating material (satin, multicolor or rainbow type coating, colored enamel, mirror coating);
6. Production material (aluminum, stainless steel, Japanese steel);
7. Characteristic anti-magnetic properties;
8. Tool shape (straight, curved, L-shaped, L-shaped, hook and others);
9. Trademark;
10. Price range.

Tweezers are a continuation of the master's hand! This rule is used by many professional makeup artists. When choosing a tool, it is necessary not only to be sure of its quality, durability and functionality, but also to feel it.

Eyelash extension technology, in fact, consists of two stages:

1. The choice of cilia-base;
2. Attachment/extension of eyelashes.

Based on these points, it becomes clear that during the procedure you will need two tools: for natural (natural) and artificial cilia.

It is necessary to select and separate with the first tweezers the eyelash on which the extension will be performed. At the same time, it should be held in such a way that there is no contact at the base with other eyelashes. The second tool from a special box picks up an artificial eyelash, or even a small bunch.The diameter of such "hairs" is negligible - from 0.05 to 0.25 mm. With careful and precise movements of the hands (as you can see, it will be unrealistic to cope with this task without tweezers), the artificial base is attached to the natural base eyelash.

Over time, any tool grinds, resulting in difficulties in work. Eyelash extension tweezers need to be sharpened periodically. You can try this procedure with your own hands at home - you only need sandpaper. However, guided by the advice of professional cosmetologists and makeup artists, you should not sharpen the tool yourself. Most likely, as a result, the tweezers will be damaged.

Professional sharpening by the master lasts at least 20 minutes. The process uses special diamond tiles. After the master has returned the instrument, it is necessary to carefully examine it. For example, too sharp ends carry a danger, they can not only injure the eye, but also “cut off” the eyelash.

Perfectly sharpened tweezers do not have chips, notches, various roughness and irregularities. The edges close evenly, without leaving a single gap.

The tweezers or eyelash extension tweezers may fall during operation. If this happens, it is necessary to check whether its edges are deformed during a fall and impact. In case of identified signs of deformation, straightening and gentle bending will be required.

Any cosmetic instrument must be thoroughly disinfected and sterilized.Especially when it comes to professional salons and cosmetology rooms. Eyelash extension tweezers are washed under running water using a special small brush. The next step is disinfection. The most common disinfectants among cosmetologists and make-up artists include: Dezaktin, Bacillol, Korzolex extra and others.

The final stage of instrument processing is sterilization. To perform this procedure, a quartz or glassperlen sterilizer can be used. Externally, the device is made in the form of a glass, inside of which there are glass balls heated to a temperature of 2300 degrees.

The eyelash extension procedure is considered quite young, but it is in demand among both young women and mature women. Beauty rules the world! Therefore, there is no limit to perfection and every girl, girl and lady of the age strives to look attractive and modern.

The right tool is a guarantee of successful completion of the extension procedure. According to customer reviews, in order to get the perfect tweezers, you will have to try dozens of not entirely successful ones. First of all, girls do not recommend buying cosmetic tools using online stores. Buying a pig in a poke - this is how goods received through online purchases are often characterized. Poor quality, improper joining of the tips, rough sharpening are the main negative points that consumers have already encountered.

There are also many complaints about the discrepancy between the quality and cost of products.

As practice shows, you should not save on cosmetic tools, so as not to experience disappointment and grief later. According to the recommendations of professional makeup artists, it is better to give preference to a tool of a well-known brand, which guarantees the quality of the products.
