How to do eyelash extensions at home

In our lives, there are many women who love beauty. They all hope to have long eyelashes, because only long eyelashes can make the eyes look particularly big and bright. So some girls with short eyelashes will choose to graft eyelashes, but the cost of grafting eyelashes in a beauty salon is expensive, so they will do it themselves at home. So how can you graft eyelashes yourself at home?

How to graft eyelashes yourself: the first step: prepare the necessary tools

To graft eyelashes by yourself, you first need to prepare all the tools needed for grafting eyelashes. Generally, the eyelash extension kits purchased on Taobao include the tools we need. Important tools include: eyelash brush, glue stick, eyelash tweezers, air blower, glue, and false eyelash remover. Before girls graft their eyelashes themselves, they should prepare all the tools they need.

How to graft eyelashes yourself: Step 2: Disinfection of eyelashes

Before doing eyelash grafting, we should pay attention to disinfect the eyelashes first. When disinfecting, we need to carefully spray the eyelash cleaning solution on the cotton swab, and then use the cotton swab to wipe the roots of our eyelashes.

The purpose of disinfection is to remove the oil secreted by the skin on the eyelashes so that the false eyelashes can better adhere to the natural eyelashes. The second purpose of disinfection is to remove bacteria on the eyelashes and avoid eye discomfort caused by the eyelash grafting operation.

How to graft eyelashes yourself - step 3: Use glue stick to apply glue

Squeeze a small amount of glue onto the glue stick/cotton swab, then apply the glued cotton swab to the base of the false eyelashes. Then choose a pair of bent tweezers to pick up a handful of eyelashes and stick them on your eyes (you can also use your fingers when you are unsteady, provided that your fingers are clean).

How to graft eyelashes yourself - step 4: use bent tweezers to fix false eyelashes

Do not release it immediately after sticking it. Use the bent part of the tweezers to gently press the stuck eyelashes and fix them for a few seconds. After making sure they are fixed, blink your eyes a little more. This is to prevent too much glue from sticking to the lower eyelashes. After trying to blink, you can choose to use a hair dryer with a small air volume or let your eyelashes dry naturally.

How to graft eyelashes yourself Step 5: Remove eyelashes

After one week of grafting, the eyelashes will begin to fall off due to the decrease in the adhesion of the glue, and the eyelashes will appear uneven. If a beauty-conscious girl feels that her eyelashes are not well-shaped and look ugly, she can choose to remove the eyelashes.

How to remove eyelashes

Place a thin piece of makeup remover cotton under the eyelashes, then use a cotton swab to dip the eyelash remover cream or liquid and apply it to the root of the eyelashes (it is best to use a matching removal product). You need to pay attention to the removal technique. You can apply and press at the same time so that each eyelash is coated with the paste. Let the paste stay at the root of the eyelashes for 2 to 3 minutes. Use a cotton swab to gently scrape the root of the eyelashes, and the false eyelashes will fall off obediently.

Things to note when grafting eyelashes yourself

Eyelashes should be planted on the original eyelashes

Please note that your eyelashes should be on your real eyelashes, not on your skin. If you stick the eyelashes to your skin, they will all fall off. For those who don’t have sensitive eyes and don’t tear easily, you can get your eyelashes as close to the skin as possible (but make sure the eyelashes are on real eyelashes), which can also make the false eyelashes look more natural.

Choose a better quality eyelash extension kit

The main advantage of a good quality eyelash extension kit is the quality of the glue. Good quality glue is generally not prone to allergies, does not have a particularly pungent smell, and its bonding ability is also excellent. Therefore, in order to prevent the eyelash grafting process from irritating our skin, it is best to choose a good quality eyelash grafting kit.
