Extension of the lower eyelashes, the photo of the result of which most girls like, has many contraindications:

• Poor hair condition. Thin and sparse eyelashes with bald patches are very difficult to correct with extensions. This procedure will only aggravate the situation and make the flaws more noticeable.
• Frequent allergic reactions. People prone to allergies often react to the materials and cosmetics used in the build-up.
• Thick and long lashes of a dark shade. In this case, building up does not make sense.
• Long and straight upper lashes that will cling to the hair extensions, causing discomfort.
• Deep-set eyes. In this case, it will be difficult to carry out the procedure, and the result will not please the client
• Age-related skin changes. For women with wrinkles around the eyes, as well as bruising and swelling under the eyes, it is better to avoid lower eyelash extensions.

In addition, lower eyelash extensions will make it difficult to apply concealer, eye patches, or care cream, which will further exacerbate the problem.

The extension of the lower eyelashes can only be entrusted to a highly professional master. This procedure is very time-consuming, complex and laborious. Improper build-up can not only ruin the client's appearance, but also lead to more serious problems, such as redness, itching or sore eyes.

When choosing a master, it is important not only to read reviews on the Internet, but also to get to know him personally, ask about the procedure and ask for a certificate confirming his skill.

The difference between the lower eyelash extensions from the upper

The lower extension is performed with open eyes, often during this procedure a feeling of discomfort is possible, since it is undesirable to blink during the procedure. The lower extension procedure can be performed at home on your own, since you do not need to close your eyes.

Upper eyelashes cannot be extended at home.

For the bottom extension, it is very important to choose the right length and thickness of the cilia. Too massive lower eyelashes can pull the eye down, it will look very strange and unnatural. Massive eyelashes create a feeling of heaviness on the eyes, they are uncomfortable to wear.

Unlike the upper build-up, this procedure is more traumatic, since the material used for the build-up can get into the eyes and cause a number of unpleasant consequences, including conjunctivitis.

Selection of artificial eyelashes

The choice of eyelashes should be approached very carefully, because it affects not only the appearance, but also the comfort of the client. Preference should be given to natural materials. Sable, mink or silk eyelashes will look as natural as possible without causing any discomfort when worn. It is important to take into account whether the client is allergic to this or that material.

Length

It is important for the procedure to choose the correct length of the eyelashes. Too long eyelashes are not suitable for the lower eyelid, they will look unnatural, while the effect of a fish eye will be created.

The length of the eyelashes must be selected individually. The choice depends on how long the client's lower eyelashes are. Extended eyelashes should not be longer than natural ones by more than 2 mm. Most often, eyelashes with a length of 5 to 7 mm are used for extension.

Diameter

The diameter of the lower eyelashes is also adjusted individually. Do not create a lot of volume on the lower eyelid. Most often, eyelashes 0.07 mm in diameter are used for this procedure.In this case, the most harmonious combination of upper and lower eyelashes is achieved.

Bending

The lower lashes do not need to bend too much. Most often, eyelashes with markings (J) are used for the procedure

Colour

The color of the lower eyelash extensions can be almost anything, it all depends on the client's preference. For a natural effect, colors are used as close as possible to the shade of the hair and skin tone. Black is suitable for brunettes, for blondes it is better to pay attention to a gray or brown shade.

For creative girls, choose blue, green or purple.

How to choose the right volume

Too much volume on the lower eyelid looks inappropriate. This dramatically pulls the eyelid down. The required volume is selected individually for each client and depends on how voluminous the upper eyelashes are. The master uses a simple formula - the eyelashes on the lower eyelid should be, on average, 2 times less voluminous than on the upper eyelid.

What do you need to build at home?

Extension of the lower eyelashes, a photo of the results of which can be viewed in advance in the portfolio of masters, can be done even at home. To do this, you need to have some skills as well as a basic eyelash extension kit.

To prepare eyelashes for extension, you must have the following materials:

• Upper eyelash pads. These products help to fix the upper lashes so that they do not stick to the lower ones.
• Degreaser. Cleans eyelashes from makeup, grease, dust, dirt and epithelial particles. An eye makeup remover will not work in this case; after applying it, the eyelashes will not last long.
• Primer. Additionally cleans and degreases eyelashes, and also helps the glue to dry faster and last longer.

When building up, you need to use the following tools and materials:

• 2 tweezers (straight and beveled). Straight tweezers are used to separate the false eyelashes. It is convenient to glue eyelashes with beveled tweezers.
• Cotton swabs.
• Artificial eyelashes (natural or synthetic).
• Glue for eyelashes.
• Cotton pads under the lower eyelid.
• Wooden sticks with a sharp edge.
• Eyelash brush. Helps comb and style lashes during the extension process.

It is important that tools and supplies are of good quality. A poor-quality degreaser, glue or remover can cause eyelid irritation and even an allergic reaction.

Technology and stages of the procedure step by step for beginners

Lower eyelash extension is carried out in several stages:

1. Consultation with the client. At this stage, the master talks about the care of extended eyelashes, selects their size and shape. A good master will definitely tell you about contraindications and possible negative consequences of the procedure.
2. Preparatory stage. At this stage, the upper and lower eyelashes are fixed with special pads. Then the eyelashes are cleaned and degreased.
3. The eyelashes are combed and styled. Then, with tweezers, you need to take an artificial eyelash, dip it in special glue and attach it to a natural eyelash.
4. At the end of the procedure, it is necessary to apply a special fixative to help the glue harden faster and hold out longer.

The duration of the procedure can be from 1 to 3 hours. It all depends on how exactly the master carries out the extension. If eyelash extension is carried out selectively (for example, only in the outer corner of the lower eyelid), the procedure will take less time.
