Eyelash extension retention is the number of days lashes last on your natural lash before falling out. Lashes can fall out for various reasons, but with proper aftercare and maintenance, you can help increase the lifespan of your lashes.

Let me share some essential tips to help you improve your lash retention! 

 

Here are the important lash tips for your client’s lashes to last as long as possible:

1. HUMIDITY

The lash glue usually works best in a humidity range of 40% to 60%. Get a hydrometer to control the humidity in your lash room or studio.

3. TEMPERATURE

To keep your glue consistent, make sure your temperature is in the correct range. You want to be between 72 and 77 F.

4. GLUE

Make sure you give your glue a good shake before using it. The components in your lash glue can separate if you leave it out for too long. To properly mix everything, shake for around 30 to 60 seconds.

5. CLEAN LASHES

The natural lashes should be clean. Natural oils and dirt must be removed for proper adherence. It is when a primer comes in handy.

Lash Primer is fantastic for resolving retention problems. It enhances the bond between lash extensions and natural lashes.

ThousandLashes Incredible Retention Primer is a pre-treatment for eyelash extensions to better Retention. Only a little volume could remove the oil and dust from the natural lashes and get better at holding the eyelash extensions. As tested, extensions last for at least one week longer when using a lash primer.

6. ADHESIVE USE

Use only a small amount of glue. It can harm natural lashes, but too little adhesive will cause the lash extensions to fall out.

THIS CAN THREATEN YOUR LASH RETENTION:

Swipe your extension on any hard surfaces to remove the adhesive.

The adhesive starts to polymerize when there's humidity and as soon as it's out of the bottle.

The adhesive also starts to polymerize when it comes in contact with any surfaces. It can significantly affect your Retention, especially if you place your fan from the top.
