Fox effect of eyelash extension. Photo, diagram, who suits, how it's done

One of the most popular procedures for girls who want to look 100% is eyelash extension. For some, it allows them to gain confidence, while others do not want to waste time in the morning on makeup. There are many effects in building, so every woman will be able to choose the desired curl and effect for herself. Among the popular effects is fox.

Features and principles

Young girls especially like this effect. The "fox" effect gives the look its own special flavor, making the look more expressive. The fox effect can be accomplished by playing around and experimenting with different lengths and curves.

So, for example, you can make extensions with smooth transitions from the smallest length to the largest, while using 4 or more lengths of synthetic hairs, or you can make the transition of lengths abrupt using only 2 or 3 lengths. By competently combining eyelashes of various lengths, you can achieve the most effective and ideal "fox".

The longest artificial hairs are glued closer to the outer edge of the eye. Thus, the corners are visually stretched like a "fox". The ideal result is to obtain the effect of arrows, while the work must be done carefully in compliance with all the rules and techniques of building. The shape of the eyes is corrected and visually extended.

Who is it for

Among the many effects, "fox" is in greatest demand, because with the help of this effect, the eyes acquire openness, expressiveness and look like they have eyeliner.

The extension specialist selects the length of the artificial eyelashes so that the effect looks natural, of course, taking into account the wishes of the client.

The "fox effect" is suitable for such eye cuts:

• located close to each other - it will be possible to correct and visually stretch to the sides;
• bulging and rounded eyes - corrective properties will visually spread them to the sides and smooth out the shape;
• almond-shaped, which are ideal and "fox" will only emphasize their natural beauty.

The fox effect of eyelash extension is corrective and not on all eyes it will look beautiful.

The "fox" effect is not suitable for girls who have:

• wide cut of the eyes - the fox effect will stretch them even more;
• the narrow shape of the eyes will narrow even more;
• lowered corners - the "fox" will look like the eye is "crying";
• deep-set shape;
• small eyes.

A qualified and experienced craftsman should be able to correctly determine the shape and shape of the eyes one hundred percent. Otherwise, the fox effect will look ridiculous and will only emphasize the flaws in appearance.

Choice of materials

A flawlessly executed extension depends not only on the experience of the master, but also on the materials he has selected. The service of building up with high quality materials is quite expensive, but the result will also please for a long time.

Low-quality work performed with materials will not only look unaesthetic after a while, but may not have the best effect on eye health.Discomfort, allergies, and artificial hairs fall off too quickly.

Materials used in building up the fox effect:

• hydrogel patches for fixing the eyelashes on the lower eyelid, to prevent them from sticking to the upper ones;
• auxiliary tape for fixing eyelashes and a patch;
• perforated tape for lifting the upper eyelid if necessary;
• for a more thorough cleaning of native eyelashes from dust and makeup residues, a degreaser and a primer are used;
• mycelial water, if necessary;
• curved tweezers for forming bundles of artificial hairs;
• straight or slightly beveled tweezers to highlight native eyelashes;
• special glue of black or colorless colors, depending on the color of artificial hairs;
• special stone for glue or glass, thanks to which the drop of glue does not dry out and remains working for a long time;
• a ring for glue on the finger, its use allows you to reduce the time of the procedure;
• palettes with synthetic hairs of various parameters;
• remover for safe and painless removal of hair extensions;
• nylon or silicone brushes for combing;
• cotton swabs are needed for women with increased tearing.

During the procedure, the master must take care not only of the quality of work and beauty, but also of the safety for the client.

Professionals recommend:

1. Quench a used drop of glue in water with a cotton swab.
2. Wear a special mask to protect yourself from glue fumes.
3. Eliminate all sorts of distractions such as a working TV or radio.

It is also possible to use a fixer and glue enhancer. The fixer enhances the durability of the glue and prolongs the wear of the extended hairs and the amplifier increases the speed of adhesion of the artificial eyelash to the native one, that is, makes the glue work faster.

Optimal parameters of eyelashes

Before embarking on the extension procedure, it is necessary to take into account the condition of the native eyelashes and such parameters as the length, thickness and volume, as well as the curvature of the native eyelashes.

Length

The length is selected based on the wishes of the client, his goals and the recommendations of the master. The optimal length for the fox effect is from 6 mm to 11 mm.

The maximum length of artificial hairs can be up to 16 mm, but if the client's eyelashes are thick enough to withstand such a load.

Extensions of long artificial hair are especially popular with courageous girls and those who want to achieve spectacular volume. The more lengths are used when building, the more beautiful the result will be. It should be understood that with such a long eyelashes will not look natural.

Bending

The correct bend of artificial hairs is of great importance. It is possible to use in work only one bend or several at a time, competently combining them.

Let's consider all possible varieties:

• B - slight bend, visually denser and looks natural;
• C - the most common bend, opens the eye and visually increases the eye due to moderately twisted hairs;
• D - a very twisted bend, will hide the overhanging eyelid, add volume, but look unnatural;
• L - Ideal for a fox effect. Recently, it has been gaining popularity and is suitable for owners of straight native eyelashes.
• M - very curled, suitable for women with eyelashes growing down.

A correctly chosen curl of artificial eyelashes is the key to a professionally performed and beautiful work.

Thickness and volume

Another important parameter in the procedure is thickness. Depending on the extension technique, the thickness of artificial hairs is selected, because it also affects their weight.

1. The thinnest and lightest eyelashes - 0.03 - 0.08 mm. Both classical and volumetric extensions are performed with such eyelashes.
2. The average hair thickness is 0.1 - 0.13 mm.They are used for classic build-up and 2D volume, they are soft and look natural.
3. Artificial hairs from 0.15 - 0.19 mm are considered thick, therefore they are used for the classical technique, rarely for 2D extension, provided that the native eyelashes are healthy and strong. In structure, they are quite dense and tough.
4. The thickest are 0.2 - 0.25 mm. Extension of such thick eyelashes looks spectacular and catchy, but they are used only for certain purposes, they are not suitable for daily wear.

Factors to consider when choosing artificial hair:

• health of native eyelashes: weak, brittle and falling out require a special approach and choice of material that will not harm your eyelashes;
• the parameters of the hairs are selected taking into account the wishes of the client;
• shape and shape of the eyes.

The choice of eyelash thickness is large; each female representative will be able to choose the desired option. Eyelashes 0.8 - 0.13 mm are optimal and most popular.

What type of cilia are chosen

For the procedure, artificial or natural eyelashes can be chosen. It is preferable to choose hairs made of synthetic materials, since the allergic reaction is minimized, and natural hairs, on the contrary, provoke it.

Artificial hair types:

• "Silk" - look natural, smooth, light, visually increase the volume;
• "Mink" - thin, light, almost imperceptible on the eyes;
• "Sable" - elastic, soft, but rather dense and thick;
• "Columns" - very thin, almost indistinguishable.

The fox effect of eyelash extension involves the use of artificial "mink and silk" hairs. The sable and columnar types are rarely used.

Choosing an option depending on your appearance

When choosing a "fox" and the length of the hair extensions, one should take into account the shape of the face. Otherwise, there is a chance to highlight the flaws in appearance.

If the build-up is done professionally and all the nuances of appearance are taken into account, a number of shortcomings are corrected, if any, and the appearance will become more harmonious.

Extension schemes

The length of artificial hairs is selected according to the necessary schemes, the length of natural hairs and the client's desire are also taken into account. The fox effect involves the process of work, starting from the inner corner of the smallest and gradually increasing the length.

The work should be finished with hairs to reduce, so as not to sag the corner of the eye.

Extension process:

1. Clear eyelashes from cosmetics, dust and dirt.
2. Comb with a brush.
3. Fixing the eyelashes of the lower eyelid with hydrogel patches.
4. If necessary, draw a markup, where lengths will be indicated for each section drawn. From the smallest, for example, starting 7 mm long, then 8 - 11 mm and ending with the longest 12 mm. At the end of the outer corner, according to the technology, several artificial hairs are glued, the length of which decreases: 12, 11, 10, 9 mm.
5. The specialist starts building up when all the necessary materials are prepared.
6. Straight or beveled tweezers highlight natural eyelashes.
7. Curved tweezers take 1 hair with 1D technique or form a bundle.
8. Observing the indentation, the synthetic eyelash is glued to the natural one.
9. At the end of the work, the eyelashes are well combed and, if necessary, use a fixer.
10. Remove the patch.

The continuation of the process depends on several factors:

• the density of natural eyelashes;
• lashmaker qualification;
• in what technique is the extension performed.

Usually the work is done from 1.5 to 3 hours.

2D and 3D techniques

The fox effect of eyelash extension in techniques 2 and 3D looks more voluminous, bolder and more effective. Their distinctive feature is the number of hairs that attach to natural eyelashes.

2D extension

1. Two artificial hairs formed into a bun.
2. Recommended thicknesses from 0.085 to 0.13 mm.
3. Possible length in "fox" up to 15 mm.
4. Extension using the double volume technique is suitable for the fair sex, who do not have as many of their eyelashes as they would like.

The look will not seem overloaded and the eyelashes will look natural.

3D extension

• Three hairs in a bun.
• Diameter from 0.05 mm to 0.085 mm.
• The length of the eyelashes can be up to 15 mm.
• Extension in triple technique is ideal for owners of rare eyelashes and those who like "thicker".

Volume extension is not recommended for too weakened native eyelashes.

Especially harmful for weak eyelashes is a long extension, which is inevitable for the fox effect.

In order for the extended eyelashes to last longer and look aesthetically pleasing and beautiful, it is necessary to provide them with proper care and ensure the inter-eyelash space is clean.It is recommended to follow all the recommendations of the master for cleaning eyelashes in order to avoid causing harm to your own and to carry out the correction in a timely manner.

Simple tips and rules:

1. It is advisable to avoid contact with water for 48 hours, this is how long the glue will completely polymerize. In the absence of such an opportunity, gently wash after 24 hours and let the eyelashes dry completely on their own.
2. It is forbidden to visit places such as sauna and bath. When glue interacts with high air temperatures, artificial hairs can quickly come off.
3. Despite the flexibility of the eyelash material used, you should try to sleep away from your eyelashes in order to avoid wrinkling and messy appearance early in the morning.
4. Avoid any mechanical damage: contact of artificial hairs with glasses, rubbing eyelashes.
5. Wash with special eyelash foam or micellar water.
6. Do not use cosmetics containing oil and fats. In the case of its use, make sure that it does not get on the hair extensions.
7. On contact with salt water, lashes fall off faster. The same applies to tears, crying is not advisable.
8. It is impossible to comb from the roots, so that detachments do not form. It is necessary to comb dry hairs from the middle, for volume.

Extension of eyelashes for a long time can negatively affect native eyelashes. They become brittle, dryness and hair loss appear.

After continuous six-month wearing of the fox extension effect, it is recommended to take a break for 1-2 months in order to slightly strengthen the native eyelashes with the help of care procedures and special strengthening agents. For example, castor oil rich in vitamins E and A or almond oil.

Apply herbal extracts of chamomile, calendula and sage in the form of compresses. After some time, the loss of eyelashes will stop, elasticity and firmness will increase.

Women have the opportunity to emphasize not only natural beauty, but also by modeling to visually correct minor imperfections in the eyes or appearance as a whole.

To make the look seductive and mysterious, the fox effect will be the right choice. Eyelash extension is not a simple procedure with many of its own nuances, so the choice of a master should be taken with caution.
