Wet look, or the wet lash effect - discover this styling method!

Eyebrow styling methods vary. You should always adapt your approach to your client's needs. Start by determining which false lash style will work best. To do this, first assess the client's facial geometry, and then suggest an eyelash extension method that you think will look best. Want to maximize client satisfaction? Offer a false lash effect. Wet look is a styling method that makes eyelashes appear thick, expressive, and shimmering.

What do you need to achieve the wet lash effect?

This eyelash extension method requires false lashes in thicknesses of 0.10, 0.07, and 0.05. Various lengths and curl profiles are also useful. This makes it easier to tailor the style to your client's needs and preferences, as well as the shape of their eye. The technique for creating a wet lash effect doesn't differ significantly from the classic method.

You'll also need the right type of tweezers, lash tape, and a lamp for comfortable work.

To achieve a wet effect on false lashes, you must first consult with your client. This way, you'll learn what she expects from you and what her preferences are for the final look of her lashes.

Next, you need to go through a few standard steps:

 

  1. Prepare the appropriate false eyelashes, which will match the color and style of the client's eye shape.
  2. Then, secure the eye area, for example, with tape.
  3. Use a cleanser to cleanse the skin and natural lashes before applying the new ones.
  4. Start applying the lashes using professional lash glue.

 

The easiest way to achieve the wet look effect is by using what's called reverse rowing. What does this mean? Apply the false eyelashes to your natural lashes in reverse order. This means that the long lashes will be in the top row, and the short ones in the bottom row. Optionally, you can achieve this effect without threading, although this requires practice and experience.

Wet-look lashes – how often should they be refilled?

Wet-look lashes require regular refills. Typically, this is done every 2-3 weeks. It all depends on the natural eyelash growth cycle. In practice, the time needed to refill a wet lash style depends on three factors:

 

  1. the client's natural hair condition;
  2. lifestyle;
  3. post-style care.

 

Always show your clients how to care for their wet-look false lashes. Thanks to this, the effects will last a little longer, which will translate into the level of satisfaction of clients who decide to use your services.
