The strand by strand lengthening technique consists of joining a synthetic strand to the natural eyelash. The professional will first carry out an assessment of the health of your lashes to choose the thickness of the synthetic strand, which normally ranges from 0.10mm to 0.20mm.
Then, the thread is placed a little larger or the same size as the client's thread.

As professionals say, it all starts with cleaning the eye area, followed by applying the primer, putting on the protector, mapping the lashes, applying the strands and drying. The entire procedure lasts an average of an hour and a half and is painless.
The material of synthetic threads can vary according to each professional and even the technique chosen for application.

What care should you take to make your eyelashes last longer?
We know that eyelash extensions are more resistant and long-lasting, so some basic care should be taken to take care of the beauty and charm of your eyelashes. So the professionals respond below:
Do not wet the extension in the first few hours: All professionals say that it is not recommended to wet your eyelashes during the first 24 hours after application. This is because the glue used will not yet be completely dry and contact with water at this first moment may compromise the durability of the stretching.
Daily cleaning: We must emphasize the importance of correctly cleaning the extension with cold water and being careful when drying. Never stop washing your eyelash extensions thinking that if you don't wash them, they will last longer, as by not cleaning them, the eyelashes begin to accumulate bacteria and dandruff.
Avoid using oil-based makeup removers: Many professionals claim that oil-based makeup removers can compromise lengthening, since “the oil can end up removing part of the glue from the synthetic strands”, leaving the lashes with flaws and looking ugly.
Avoid hot baths or saunas: All professionals emphasize this precaution, because the glue used to perform the extension can soften when exposed to high temperatures, which consequently compromises the durability of the extension.
Do not use mascara: When you have eyelashes, there is no need to apply mascara, which can make them look heavy, with some tangled strands and even tearing out some of them during makeup.
Gently comb your eyelashes: Many professionals explain that over the days the eyelashes end up curling, which takes away the beauty and naturalness of the finish. It is very important that you comb your eyelashes, which look like those little mascara brushes, but can be combed without any product.
Avoid rubbing or scratching your eyes: Many professionals explain that although you scratch your eyes and this is a common habit, it ends up damaging your eyelash extensions. All because the friction caused by movement can end up ripping out your natural strands and leaving you without both.
If you want to add eyelashes, ask the professional who will do your eyelashes whatever you want, but if you already have them and still don't take care of them correctly, take the opportunity to start taking care of them.
