As a lash technician, you always want to provide your first-time clients all the information they need to feel comfortable at their appointments. Here are some ways you can encourage and inspire confidence for those new to receiving lash extensions.
You Can Choose Your Lash Style
There are many styles to choose from. While some clients rely on your expertise, inform first-time clients they can share their preferences. If they want something subtle, recommend a minimal style with a C curl that enhances their natural lash growth, adding length and volume.
It’s Okay to Bring Your Inspo Pictures
Encourage first-time clients to bring photos of inspirational eyelash looks for their appointment. Their lashes may differ from the pictures after the session due to adjustments needed for their preferences and natural lash growth. However, your expertise combined with inspiration photos will help create a custom designed look that makes your client happy.
There Are Different Glues and Curing Processes
You can explain the different glue for eyelashes, like the specific glue for UV lash extensions application systems. Explain the benefits of UV curing with an LED light and how it can speed up appointments while providing longer lasting lash extensions. If your first-time client has sensitive skin, recommend a hypoallergenic lash glue to reduce the chances of a potential reaction to odors, fumes, and more. There are multiple options, and you can always find a lash glue and curing process that works for everyone.
The Application Process Takes Time
Make sure first-time clients know how long the process can take. Depending on the number of lashes they need, the curing process, and other factors, a full set lash extension application can take up to three hours. If your client wants to save time, suggest a UV lash extensions application because every lash you apply attaches instantly, minimizing the risk of sticking throughout the application. These little things add up over the course of an application!
Lash Care Is Essential in Extending Extension Life
While you want your client to return for another appointment, you don’t want it to be because their lashes didn’t last long enough. Depending on your client’s natural lash growth cycle, and how well they followed your lash extension aftercare directions, high-quality lashes should last up to four weeks. Depending on the adhesive type used, remember to advise them on whether they should avoid certain activities in the first three hours after their appointment, in addition to any lash extension compatible products they can use, such as concealers, eyeliners, and eyeshadows.
You know that lash extensions with traditional glue or UV lash extensions applications are straightforward processes, but first-time clients don’t have your experience. Let them know they’re in good hands to help provide them a peak lash extension experience.
